I used it only once. Very powerful. Was somewhat difficult to start but when it got going, it blasted away the accumulated moss and fungus from off my driveway. I added quick couplings going from the washer to the hose from the hose to the wand to enhance user friendliness.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this after doing a lot of research. I'll be using it around salt water a lot and wanted it for the aluminum frame. Which seems Simpson is the only one out there that has an aluminum frame and was in my price point. An added benefit is that it is very light if a need arises, like lifting it into a pickup truck bed. I got this model due to the always dependable Honda engine and heavy duty components.

Bought this machine 2 weeks ago. 15 hours on it so far and it performs extremely well in every way. Very well built, easy to start and really puts out the power I need to wash the siding, cars, concrete, etc. Well worth the cost. Buy this with confidence.

Had purchased a lesser brand and quality a couple years ago and just didn't suit my needs. This unit was about double the price but it's double the product! Good Honda engine that starts easily and is efficient. Good power and expect to have this unit for many, many years! Worth the money overall.

Too often, people use hyperbole to describe an event or object...But I am not exaggerating when I describe this little guy as a JEWEL. Every about it performs the job well. Yes, it could have a better system to store the wand, yes the engine oil change procedure could be more thought out and yes the water connection receptacle location could be easier for the operator. But for the dollar, I'm not sure you can buy a better machine...

I PURCHASED THE PRESSURE WASHER 3 WEEKS AGO AND I LIKE THE PERFORMANCE A LOT, JUST KNOWING THAT A HONDA ENGINE WAS USED AS A MAJOR PART OF THE MACHINE TELLS ME THAT SIMPSON IS CONCERNED ABOUT THERE QUALITY. NORMALLY I WOULD OF RATED THIS WASHER A 5 STAR BUT, 1) I HAVEN'T USED IT LONG ENOUGH TO VALIDATE DURABILITY, 2) WHEN THE WAND IS IN THE HOLDER AND I MOVE UNIT FROM POINT A TO POINT B THE WAND TIP CLANGS AGAINST THE ENGINE, NOT A MAJOR CONCERN BUT WHO WANTS TO SCRATCH UP THE PRETTY PAINT JOB ON THE NEW HONDA ENGINE, 3) I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE HANDLE A LITTLE LONGER OR ADJUSTABLE FOR EASE OF MOVING UNIT. I'M GOING TO RATE IT A 4.5 STAR BUT SEEING THAT IT ISN'T A OPTION IT WILL HAVE TO BE A 4 STAR...

I bought this in 06/15 and have used it for 2 long (for me) days. I cleaned my long driveway and back porch. This washer was easy to start, didn't jump around while running and did an a remarkable job cleaning off years of muck and stains from the drive. I also bought a 36" wand extension and a 15" round surface cleaning attachment. This made it easy on the back and a pleasure to see the results.

Great love it last one lasted years of abuse here at our shop.

Very powerful and will last forever with the Honda motor

This exceeds my expectations! I wish I would have bought this years ago.
