Good For Price, Not Industrial Grade

I have been using this pressure washer with my pressure washing company. The handle broke after 3 days of use and the motor struggles to turn and requires more pulls than other Pressure Washers. Overall the pressure washer works well and can complete jobs but doesn't seem 100% Reliable. Good for starting out, not for longevity.

So far so good..

I bought this because I got tired of spending an entire day washing my driveway with my electric pressure washer. Assembling it was pretty straightforward, no issues there. The only issue I had so far was getting it to run. I followed the instructions in the manual, line by line, to start it up and I could not get it to run. After several attempts of pulling the cord and releasing the pressure from wand, I was ready to call it quits. I stood there looking at it, thinking to myself that I should've gone with the Simpson, but then I noticed a lever with a yellow tab and stickers of a rabbit and turtle right below it. I saw it earlier when assembling it, but I did not see anything about it or its function in the manual so I didn't think much of it. The lever was position all the way to the right (turtle), so I moved it all the way to the left (rabbit) and pulled the cord and wah-lah...it ran. Did some googling afterwards and found out the lever is to control the Throttle/Engine Speed. It would have been nice if Westinghouse included that in their instructions. With this being my first gas powered tool, I didn't know that it was something I had to do. Anyway, I tested a small part of my driveway to see how strong it was and yes, it will definitely save me time.

Except for one thing, happy with product

I have only used it for one day, but after the unit is warm, it was difficult to start it. I had to let it cool down for about 15 minutes, then it started after a number of pulls. Otherwise, the unit worked fine. Assembly was easy and completed within 20 minutes.

Best Power Washer

We have a very long driveway that needs cleaning annually! I needed a better Power Washer to thoroughly clean our driveway as my old one just didn't do the job. I found the solution with the WPX3800 which does a fantastic job! Thank you Westinghouse!

Great for Removing Oil & Grease from Shop Floors!

I purchased the WPX4400 a couple weeks ago and one thing is for sure... I've wasted a lot of time, energy, and money over the years trying to remove grease and oil stains from the concrete around our diesel repair shops. The WPX4400 makes this task SO MUCH easier! I should have made this purchase a long time ago!

I can't complain!

I just switched from Honda because it quit out on me after just 4 years. This Westingtonhouse pressure washer has really well first impressions. It's very quit, runs smooth and delivers equal power as its competitors. A little heard to pull start the first time but ran smooth after starting.

Pressure Washer

Bought this Westinghouse WPX3800 pressure washer as a replacement/upgrade due to my previous pressure washer giving me problems. I am very impressed how well built the unit is including the frame and especially the motor. I am looking forward to having a pressure washer that has an adjustable throttle and able to cut the fuel off so gas does not remain in the carburetor when stored.

Great machine, manual need work

Bought a few weeks ago. It's a big engine to pull start, and a bit difficult at first, but keeping low pressure in the tank is key. Easy to assemble as well, and it works well. Complaint is the written (and on-line) manual does not match the new build of this machine. So a few things, including how to use the cleaning solution tubes, is not included, nor intuitive for those of use who have not had a gas power washer before. Due to the out of fate manual, parts listing etc has it's issues. Overall, I think machine is (can be) great. I just don't know how to use all its features.

Works Great with a few challenges

Once the pressure washer was up and running, it worked very well. There were a few challenges to overcome including confusing setup instruction related to oil and after running the first time, 2 bolts that connect the pressure washer to the engine loosened and were found on the ground.

Good cleaning power/pressure

This 3600psi model worked very well for cleaning my 20' x 36' concrete driveway. I also purchased a 16" stainless steel surface cleaner with it's 2 underside spray nozzles on a rotating spray head which really sped this cleaning operation up. Only took about 2 5 hours which was about half the time of other pressure washers I've used. The main reason for buying this unit was it's long lasting water Triplex pump. I'm not sure how the engine will last though, as it's very cold blooded and takes 5 to 6 pulls to start or restart when turned off for a bit. (I live at only 390 above sea level.) I plan on changing out the engine and pump oil soon. Will be contacting Westinghouse soon to find out their recommended 85w90 gear oil to use! Mainly wish to know if a quality synthetic is okay and verify use of GL4 or GL5 grade oil. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase and hope to get quite a few personal home use cleaning seasons from this machine. My message to anyone planning to buy a pressure washer is: Buy an American built unit like this one with a Triplex Pump for just a few $$ more! From my research on this matter, a good pump will actually last a long time with just easy specified oil changes per the owner's manual.
