I have had this pressure washer for about 3 weeks now and put it to work right out of the box and all I can say is wow, it performs above my expectations. It starts good usually 1 pull and I truthfully can not come up with any complaints as of yet. The pressure is great, I use it with a sand blast attachment and again no complaints. I recommend this pressure washer!!!

I had no previous expereince with pressure washers. The purchase of the PS60843 was my first experience. The packaging was good, the labeling and literature was good. I felt the literature could have discussed/identified the pressure offloader and the thermal offloader some more. After about 2 hours of using the unit, water started leaking out from the pressure offloader valve (I think it is). This is the brass spring loaded valve pointing downwards on the water output. I thought this is how the valve should operate, but the leak was costant, even when the engine was shut off. The leak caused the engine to pulse when the trigger was not depressed. I then checked the valve and it needed tightening. This should have been tightened at the factory and should not have come loose after 2 hours of use. However, this was a minor inconvenience. The engine starts well, if you turn down the pressure regulator to the lowest, and trigger the wand to release pressure. If the engine did not start after two firm pulls, depress the wand trigger again to release the pressure. I would like to have seen a simple fuel level indicator. Currently you have to remove fuel filter from the fuel tank and look inside. This should be fairly easy, but the filter has no real way to be held on too and lifted out without getting jammed against the surfaces of the tank surrounding it. Removing the filter is actually a very delicate and somewhat timely exercise. I made a wire hook to lift the filter out. It is simple and works, but another factory supplied method would have been nice.Perhaps a transparent fuel hose from the tank would be a good indicator. The lowest pressure I was able to get is 2000 PSI. I ran the unit at 3500PSI, but I could have gotten 4,000 or more. I did not want to max out the unit as it is new....break it in slowly. I am yet to play with adjusting the engine trottle using the supplied lever, and see if the pressure would decrease. I have not used the unit since, but will in a few days time. I cannot comment on reliability as yet, but sure hope this unit is reliable....very reliable. Overall, as of now, I believe this is an excellent unit. I am so far pleased with it. Would I purchase it again, yes.

I will start that I have looked at buying a pressure washer for over a month. I have looked at and read reviews on just about everything out there. Then I became familiar with the capability of the different psi’s. 2800 psi seems to be most common however after using one it was very much underpowered even for home use. There is quite a price jump in washers say 3000 psi and up. After seeing a hand full of reconditioned washers in the store I was even more apprehensive one picking a brand. I knew I wanted a 3000 psi or higher. On this pressure washer a Simpson 4400 psi for the price was a steal. The reviews were not so impressive. After reading over 50 reviews I made my choice to give this a shoot. The thing that stood out more then the problems people were reporting was the high level of customer service Simpson offered to have repairs made. Anything with an engine will breakdown and have good customer service makes all the difference. I have not had any problems with this pressure washer as of yet. I have put about 40 hours on it so far. I can say I have gotten my money out of it already so I’m rather pleased.

More power than I need, had a hard time holding wand from recoil... take the crome off a trailer hitch!!! had to turn down the volume on this one pressure is off the hook! Great machine, no issues yet. Works like a champ! Very pleased and would recommend this unit to all...

I bought this i think in August of this year and I am super pleased with it The pressure washer has more than enough power to clean anything you want in half the time you used too with lower psi washers The only draw back for me is that I am a 73 year old man and it is a little hard for me to pull start wish I would have bought electric start This is by far the best pressure washer I have ever owned I have had three others Would buy again in a heartbeat

Used for a total of 2 hours until dramatic pump failure with water spraying everywhere! Had to take whole sprayer to service center 20 miles away. Been there for a week and still no news about warranty repair. Despite this (I assume I was just unlucky) it is an incredibly powerful machine and is a fantastic cleaner.

I bought this unit for two reasons, Honda engine and power. I can not stress that in the hands of an inexperienced user the probability of damaging something is high. At 4200 psi with 4.0 gpm this unit has some serious kick, you will get a work out after an hour of use. Proper care and periodic maintenance and this pressure washer will last for years.........again proper upkeep. If you got one and it did not work right out of the box more likely it was damaged during transport. Any review from someone down playing this units capabilities or its quality is coming from and average user and not professional.

I’ve been pressure washing houses for about 10 yrs. This is the best washer I have bought. It also comes at a good price. I have had no problem with the Simpson motor. I couldn’t pay for the overpriced Honda motor. From my experience Honda makes a good motor but the pressure washer usually wears out before any motor I’ve ever had. This washer has so much power it is hard to hold onto if you have it at full psi. It does adjust, but does not have a gauge. I just bought a new gauge to see how much power it actually has with my 150 ft hose. Great product, easy to start.

This is only review but the pressure washer is much better than the previous system that I owned. Plenty of power a bit awkward to move around. They might as well put a third wheel in the back or four wheels but this thing will clean anything. Oh yes, and I wish it was just a Key start for that amount of money it should be.

I bought this to replace my old power washer of many years and I wish I would have traded up sooner. This unit starts perfectly and everything works perfectly. The only problem for me is that I am in my sixties and the unit is very powerful, to help with this I bought the extra handle grip to use and being able to use two hands makes it a lot better.
