First time I used it the muffler fell off. Screw welds failed

I just purchased this washer and have not had time to give it a good test.

Product is powerful, I like the fact that it has a holder for the gun and the hose.

I bought this a couple of weeks ago, and it is super powerful compared to other brands. I love how reliable this is, it really get's the job done.

Great power, unfortunately I haven’t been able to fully give it a workout due to inconvenience of product without a small part

Bought another brand and returned within 2 weeks, I have never purchased Westinghouse before but wish I had.

Heck of a power washer. Bigger and beefier than I expected, and it works like a charm! Should last a long long time. Definitely worth the investment.

I have over a thousand feet of 10' and higher rock walls around my property and was looking for a pressure washer that would make it easier to clean the rocks. I had been using a 3600 psi pressure washer and was reading that stepping up to a 4400 psi pressure washer makes a big difference so I purchased the Westinghouse WPX4400. Initially, the pressure is great. When I first pulled the trigger it knocked me back the pressure was so great. I did not turn down the pressure knob, but will probably do so when I do not need so much pressure. The manual covers 3 different models (the 3600, 3800 and 4400). It is confusing when dealing with the 4400 since there are parts not even needed on the 4400, but this is not explained so it was a little frustrating trying to follow instructions that did not even apply to the 4400. It would be helpful if the manual explained when instructions do not apply to certain models. The first time I went to start the 4400 the compression was so high that it would not turn over. After five pulls the handle came off due to the knot pulling through the handle. After fixing the handle I tried to start it again while my wife held the trigger down on the wand. This removed some of the pressure and it then started. This should be explained in the manual that for the 4400 it is necessary to depress the trigger to reduce the pressure and compression. After the first time I just held the wand myself and pulled the trigger and was able to start the pressure washer myself. Overall, I am pleased with this purchase.

I was apprehensive on spending twice as much on this unit but the reviews were simply too much not to give it a try. The packaging and attention to detail were above reproach. My only recommendation is better instructions on starting this unit for the first time. The pressure build up from the water make the compression on the engine too hard to pull the cord. We had to keep the nozzle pressure open to start the engine.

I purchased this unit due to the many good reviews it has received. I'm glad I did, as it is a sturdy, well-built machine. I used it to pressure wash my house recently, and it performed flawlessly. Much more powerful than my old Excel 2300 psi unit with Honda engine. Some positive attributes are: 1) Very easy to remove fuel from carburetor for winter storage with the fuel shut-off switch and bowl drain. 2) Heavy-duty Triplex pump will last many years. 3) Very sturdy frame and tires makes it easy to maneuver. Some not so positive attributes are: 1) The cover to the muffler should be painted something other than black. Looks similar to the air filter housing and gas tank, so I mistakenly placed my hand on it while standing back up from filling the soap dispenser - won't do that again. 2) The soap dispenser tank is difficult to access as it is located directly under the water hose connection. Overall a very good unit - would highly recommend.
