Customer reviews for SIMPSON PowerShot 3300 PSI at 2.5 GPM Honda GX200 with AAA Triplex Pump Professional Gas Pressure Washer forMember photos
Best price for the unit
sams has this for more than $100 cheaper than its competitors. Its got decent power not OMG power but good enough for around the house. Mine didnt come with the spray gun so I called the 800# and they sent one to me. Honda motor and triplex pump what more can I say....maybe make sure all parts are in the box before you send it out?
Lots of power
The first time I used this unit, oil began leaking from the pump. Tractor Supply stepped up and promptly replaced it with a new one. I have since used the new unit for approximately 10 hours total with no problems. I mostly use it attached to a 20" surface cleaner. I wouldn't go any larger than that. The only draw back is the filter at the bottom of the fuel tank is long and points straight up. So, while the tank has a little fuel in it, it will stop running. It's not a big deal. You just have to understand how it works. I would recommend it to anyone wanting a powerful pressure washer. I did add on a quick connect pressure guage, and it does put out 4400 psi. I dialed it back just a little under that. The only reason for the 4 stars is because of the pump leaking and the way the fuel filter is designed. Just fill it with ethanol free fuel so you don't have to worry about ethanol issues and you'll be fine. I only noticed the filter characteristic in the unit because I tried to put just a little fuel in it to test it out. I simply wasn't putting in enough. Also, people tend to skip the 5 star reviews to see what potential issues there are. Glad I bought it. Great price. Not a Honda engine, but the price is also lower because of that. At this time it has the most power for the money.
We're glad your replacement has performed flawlessly & will be sure to document your design feedback for our team, Robert225. Beyond that we are happy to hear you've enjoyed a powerful performance from your new Simpson pressure washer. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience!
where's my warrantee?
The pressure washer worked perfectly the first four times, (it's 3 months old). then the internal parts of the pump failed. I called Simpson Cust. Service # disconnected. I e-mailed 3 days ago... no response. I have to rent or buy another washer,to replace this one...... I'm extremely disappointed.
Amazing pressure washer
The build quality is solid — this thing feels like it’s made to last. The engine starts easily and runs smoothly, and the rugged frame makes it easy to move around the yard. It’s clear this wasn’t designed just for light weekend use, but for real heavy-duty work.
It's great to hear you've been pleased with the rugged quality, & your 3300 PSI pressure washer has performed smoothly and powerfully to tackle those big jobs. Show off your work any time by tagging #simpsonclean on social media, & we'd love to see photos of your results. We appreciate the positive feedback, Steve P!
Great Motor, Poor Pump and Warranty Service
I have actually purchased two units, the first purchased on-line was delivered sooner than expected, the box showed a lot of damage, however the unit seemed to be in good shape. Unit started and worked great for approximately 2 1/2 hours (washing Motorhome prior to a trip). As I finished washing under the Motorhome I noticed that water was shooting 15 feet straight up in the air from a blown gasket on the pump. After returning from our trip I called the 1-800 help line, people there were helpful finding a local repair shop to have the unit repaired, I called the shop, spoke to the receptionist and was assured that they did warranty repair, so packed up unit, traveled 20 miles (1 way) got to the shop and was told by owner that they had not worked on and would not work on Simpson washers for at least 2 years. Back to help line. They provided a second Warranty repair location 65 miles away, called and yes they did repair work but did not stock parts. The 1-800 help line had offered to send parts so that I could make repairs, but they were back ordered for a least 3 weeks, so I decided to return the unit to my local store 55 miles away, in Bryan,Tx, they were great refunded purchase price no questions asked. I then reordered a second unit on-line. It was delieved promptly, however the box was completely smashed. Unit was upside in box (would not have accepted from carrier but he set it by the door and ran). Again, unit show no signs of damage, unit started right away, but did not seem to have power of first unit and pump made unusal noises, used unit for 20 minutes completed task and stop unit then notice oil running out of the pump. After past experience took unit straight back to store, again great service. Then decided to buy a different unit at the store, purchased a Generac washer $100 less expensive, less powerful, frame not as strong (plastic parts), motor not a Honda, but it is still running great after 6 plus hours of use.
Excellent Machine!!!
This machine not only blew the grime away, it blew me away with its performance. I ordered it online from Sams Club and found it delivered on my front porch in about a week for a very low shipping fee. Straight out of the box I read the manual, assembled, added oil, gas and connected water. It started on my first pull of the starter cord and does so everytime I use it. Runs quietly and has a large fuel tank and lets not forget the power. Gets the job done! Very satisfied!!! A GREAT BUY!!!
A great pressure washer for the price.
I have used the pressure washer for about 10 hours to clean very dirty decks and a driveway and it worked very well. Great pressure and very easy to operate. The only negatives are the 25 ft. hose is too short for most applications, I had to get a 50 footer. It is shipped with a bottle of oil for the motor and the full bottle will not fill it to the full level on the motor. I was also confused about the 2 oil fill and 2 oil drain plugs on the machine. There was no mention of these in the directions to put oil into the motor. So other than these couple of issues it is a great pressure washer.
Home/ Experienced
I purchased the Simpson Powershot-3200PSI washer approx 1 month ago after reviewing the comments of others. I agree that the 25' hose needs to be longer. I do not agree that the Honda engine starts on the first pull right out of the box. It took about 4 or 5 pulls, which to me is normal. I do like the power this machine has, I mean this bad boy will blast the ugly off an ape :). I do, also, agree with a lot of other reviewers that the delivery was very prompt, even ahead of the earliest deliver date. I recieved mine with-in 3-4 days of order. I added a 50' monster hose that I purchased from H-Depot, including the necessary fittings.
Simpson Powershot - 3200 PSI
Best value available. Same machine from other sources measurably higher. Does the job and then some. Fast delivery. Only complaints are minor and easily remedied: As reported by others, the storage for the tips is ineffective. With the machine running, the tips vibrate out of their "sockets".Will fashion a retainer strap (velcro?) to hold them in place. Hose length is too short. Had to buy additional hose. Don't park it on an abrasive surface while operating. The rear feet abrade.
Good pressure washer but.......
Bought this pressure washer at a local Sam's club. This is a professional model with lots of power and features and should be dependable. I used today for about 6 hours straight with no problems. The reason I gave it 4 stars is the quality of the pressure hose and gun. I can guarantee that no professional would use this washer with the provided gun/hose. When I opened the box and pulled out the gun and hose I was so disappointed I almost returned it. But I knew this was a good washer so the next day I went to a local hardware store to get a gun/hose worthy of the washer's quality. I did use the provided wand though. One other minor issue is the the nozzle holder. Even though it looks good when not in use the nozzles fall out as soon as you start the machine. It is an embarrassing design flaw but doesn't affect the performance of the machine. I just put the nozzles in my pocket when using it and in a plastic bag when storing.
