Customer Review: If you've shopped pressure washers, you should know how great a buy this is!
Summary: 5 Stars
Not real sure what the difference is, but the product listed is for the 3025 OH, I received a 3050 OH. Looking at the Karcher site, there appears to be no difference. Perhaps the 3050 OH is a newer model.
I've used a number of pressure washers over the years. Mostly the vertical coil engines that you find on the lower price point machines. But since we're talking price point, this is where this recertified machine shines, the price is astounding! The ones you'll see in your local Sunday paper from that store we all know are about $299. For about $30 more, you're getting the Honda engine with horizontal coils, instead of the Briggs and Stratton. If you go to the CPO Karcher site, the unit is $20 more for the recertified model. A new unit is pushing $500!
This really is far quieter than the vertical coiled B&S Engine, you can probably safely get by without using hearing protection on this unit. I'd recommend it with the Sunday paper $299 unit! The base prices ones in the paper are also going to be in the lower 2,000 PSI range, which isn't ample if you're looking to do paint prep on wood surfaces, which was one of my requirements.
The spray wand on this unit has quick change nozzles. I actually prefer this over the wands that you twist to adjust the spray pattern. I've always ended up with leaking spray heads on those adjustable nozzles.
Change your oil! It is easy and is the best thing that you can do to preserve the engine which is after all the majority of the cost for a pressure washer. This unit comes with oil. The recommendation is to change the initial oil after 5 hours of use. I plan on switching to a synthetic oil once that five hours has been completed.
Don't forget to store your unit in a freeze free location with pump saver Karcher Pump Guard in the down times. The instructions recommend winterizing the unit, but I recommend that you put the pump saver into the unit if it will sit idle for more than 30 days. It will help prevent the seals from drying out.
Once you have a pressure washer, you'll wonder how you got by without it. There are so many things that are made easier having a pressure washer! All those spider webs that you get on your porch? Use a broom and you just end up pushing them around, and they turn to that nasty dirt color. Blast them away and be gone for good!
One thing that wasn't specified in the product description here is the detergent pickup. This unit does come with the pickup tube to put into a detergent solution. Some of the lower cost units, make it a selling point to put the detergent container on board. This turns into a mess. You're limited to the small tank which they give you, and inevitably there will be residue left in there that you can't get cleaned up.
Another option for this model is the fresh water pickup kit Karcher Water Suction Kit for Electric Pressure Washers. You can get an additional filter kit and if you have a FRESH water source available, use that to supply the water needs. I live on a fresh water creek, so I will certainly be exploring this item! The linked product description says it is for electric units, but the owner's manual specifies that there is a water suction kit available. I'm not yet sure if there is a different model for gas or what.
Few notes about cleaning. I did our front concrete patio today and it removed white and green paint from when the previous owner apparently did some painting! Of course it removed (without detergents) all the mildew that had accumulated on the concrete.
I also used it on my car to remove sap from a poplar tree near my driveway. No problem with that of course, also knocked off all the brake dust with no effort. Again, no detergent used!
There have been a lot of notes about shipping damage on the machines. My box arrived in perfect condition, and the unit looks brand new. Don't be afraid of this like new recertified unit!
