Ryobi 3000psi Electric Pressure Washer | Best pressure washer for home

[@huhSHUA]

I wish you had a spread sheet of all your pressure washer reviews.

[@donnagreenspansolomon7620]

Is the Ryobi 3000 PSI ($419) worth the difference in price over the 2700 ($232)? What are the main differences other than the top folding over, which is pretty cool

Karcher 170bar is maximum at 230 volts in Europe. Karcher HD 5/17 has 170 bar at the end of doze. Inside the motor has more. When you messure has more.

[@robertrobertson5120]

Oh gosh Josh, I bet Home Depot loves your visits... I see their stock prices are up!

[@Gomoboo]

I purchased it and several other products you recommended. So far, everything is working well except for one design glitch. There is a small rubber o-ring (#017, 11/16 inside diameter by 1/16") at the hose inlet located behind the black knob that keeps the water from spraying out when the garden hose is attached to the machine. After just 6 months, it broke in spite of the fact that o-rings normally last 10 years or more. Not a problem, right? O-rings can be replaced. Not the way this unit was designed. The brass inlet pipe goes directly into the pump housing. You can not replace the o-ring. There's 2 solutions. First, you can allegedly purchase a slightly larger diameter o-ring (3/4" inside diameter) cut it at a 45° angle and then with a special superglue, connect it after trimming just enough to allow the ends to close. An aviation mechanic advised me that he did it all the time. The only other alternative is to call Greenworks customer service.

[@rockstarbruski7088]

What pressure washer are you talking about with the oring problem. You mention contacting greenhouse but this review is for the 3000psi ryobi pressure washer

I was interested in getting this model Do you use the 1.1 or 1.25 orifice?

[@thomasmeisch5692]

I run the 1.25, with Sooprince short wand.

[@bryan70546]

as per your recommendations I purchased the 2700psi unit from Lowes and last week upgraded my hose to the flex-zilla and quick connect fittings and another foam cannon. like you I don't care for the ramp up on the unit, but it performs great no issues the small upgrades really helped it does produce some great foam action like really thick which I was surprised. I have a 3200psi gas unit also but tend to use it for heavy duty jobs for the driveway and house stuff plus I get up at 6am to clean my vehicles before the sun starts blasting everything lol so the electric unit keeps the noise down while my neighbor's sleep. keep up good work man.

[@TheBassallyear100]

did you just extend the hose? the stock hose is made by uberflex so other than the color it's the same as the flexzilla.

Great product been performing for couple years now. Use soap tank often no issue. Thanks for all the reviews you do! only $99 at Home depot back then and ever have an issue they"ll take it back and replace. Ramp time did improve after a few hours of use and pump didnt surge as bad.

JOSH!!! I need you to Review something ASAP!!! It’s a hidden gem within the shelves of Walmart!! Black Magic Graphene Detailer!!! This thing is BETTER than Bead Maker by P&S I tried it on my work truck 2 weeks ago after washing it. And today I washed my truck and with the pre rinse today, ALL of the dirt that was on it (I work landscaping) all of it came off! And the water beads WERE INSANE!!! like a ceramic coating had been applied on my trucks paint!!! I didn’t decontaminate i didn’t clay I didn’t anything! But washed it and dried it with this detailer and OMG! The slickness was awesome! And the water Beading OMG I NEED YOU TO REVIEW THIS. Best part! Is it’s only $8!!! I couldn’t believe it!

[@jasonmiller6102]

I bought this unit. Used it for a weekend and then returned it. The psi to gpm ration doesn’t move a lot dirty. The hose is a pain and the nozzle is bulky. I’m better off spending the money on an active 2.0 rather than upgrading hose, handle, and nozzle tips.

[@richsun]

Can you get a set of 40 degree nozzle tips in various orifice sizes to see if there is an ideal one for each of the pressure washers you review? Right now you test using a 40 degree 3.0mm and a 25 degree 2.5mm. Also, what would be the best balance that you want to strive for? Let's say hypothetically you use a 40 degree tip and you have a choice of 2.0mm (1400 psi, 1.0 gpm), 2.5mm (1000 psi, 1.2 gpm), or 3.0mm (800 psi, 1.4 gpm). Which would you choose for car detailing?

[@jorgemarquez701]

[@freewilly5073]

Great stuff, a great pressure washer for those looking for the top end of the 2k pressure washers almost 3k but $400 is a bit steep. Right now for memorial day harbor freight I believe us selling their 2300 psi unit for $220 which Josh also did a review on. I think I can live with 400 less psi for about half the price.

Not first again!! Great review. WE THE PEOPLE WANT IMJOSHV FOAM!!!!

[@IraJones-rd9qr]

I've used this sprayer several times now on brick pavers, a wood deck, patio, and a driveway. kzbin.infoUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX It has performed as expected on all surfaces. For larger areas like the decks and patios, I think I will be looking into a surface cleaner attachment to speed up the job, or at least make it a little easier. Hose and sprayer connections are tool-less, tight, and quick. I used the yellow nozzle on the concrete/brick surfaces, and the pressure was adequate for cleaning those surfaces.I am disappointed that these units are still being shipped with a nozzle storage holder that allows them to vibrate out of the holder way too easily and become lost, but I don't want to knock off a star for that reason. The functional part of the washer works very well, so I would recommend this product.

[@direwolf3972]

Very nice video, do you still recommend this as the best electric pressure washer I know greenworks has a 3000 psi electric as well.. thank you so much and have a wonderful end of 2023!

[@theplug7114]

Just purchased this, I love it the only problem I have is the wheels will not stay steady

[@jeejay98]

Very very highly informational. I don’t know why I am still not subbed before. Anyways, SUBBED. 👍

[@pencilme1n]

You can sacrifice volume for pressure and vice versa. Cleaning power is calculated by multiplying the two.

[@hmmmIMHO]

Can you review the new Greenworks Pro 3000 psi? A few other car detailers have highly rated it but your reviews/test are better-more though and detailed.

[@marcosjimenez7046]

Is this a good start off to use for starting a water pressure business? Wouldn’t you need big water tanks for it?

[@pauld7804]

My 2.5 year old Ryobi 3k is dying. Fits and starts during washes and the pressure is very poor and foam has petered out. From what I've read, the seals on these things are not built to last more than around 200 uses. Trying to decide whether to buy another or try the Dewalt 3000.

Hey Josh why don't you answer your viewers' questions?

[@frdm4lifeable]

Thank you Josh. Lots of great videos. I have 2 questions. 1st. On the electronic pressure washer can you add the ball valve for rinse down and will the machine create enough pressure for a strong stream without using a pressure washer gun? 2nd question. I have had 2 shepherd ryobi Plug with the Surge protector Burns out. I never plug it anywhere near where the water is so I can't understand why that keeps happening. So what I want to doing is cutting the wire and by passing it directly to an outlet in my garage That has a search protector as well. Have you ever seen this before?

[@lnchappo]

Do you recommend this Ryobi 3000psi 1.1gpm model or the greeworks pro 2300psi 2.3gpm for all around home and detailing?

[@PMart317]

What did you end up going with??

[@lnchappo]

I went with the Ryobi 1800 PSI 1.2 GPM from Home Depot. Works great and is $99. I upgraded the hose to flexzilla 50’ and got a stubby nozzle/larger nozzle. If intended for home use this is a perfect setup and doesn’t kill the budget.

[@jarrydubbelyu2166]

You need to review the Worx pressure washers

[@whatfreedom7]

I got the 2700. It’s ok but not great. My biggest issue is the stiff plastic hose that’s just tangled up in one big knot. That’s enough to make me take it back and see if the greenworks or another brand is any better. For the price they could at least include a decent hose.

[@DavidWeinberg-cm9xd]

An induction motor, regardless of type, is just an enclosed motor, with a fan, so the water will not destroy it in it's working environment?

[@neverendingweekend]

so, is the reason you change orifice size is to control pressure? so if i want to wash my car i would use the 2.5 orifice to lower the pressure and increase flow?

Hey Josh. Thanks for the review. I found an interesting comment that said we’re all capped at 1200psi/.7 gpm with electric due to only drawing 115amps of pwr. Is this true?

[@matsudakodo]

No, the max is around 1.1 gpm at 3000 psi or 2 gpm at 1000 psi. And I think you meant 15 amps

[@AB-80X]

It totally depends on your machine. I run a single phase 230 volt machine that is 2.2 gpm and 2300 PSI. It needs 16A to run. In the US the same Stihl machine runs on 120 volt and 20A. Plenty of machines that will run in the 1800-2000 PSI range and deliver 1.8-2.2 gph.

I have been reading a lot about what the actual possibilities of pressure you can get out of these less than 220V pressure washers. There evidently is a limit and many companies are untruthful as to performance. Is this one of them also.

[@ERICRX90]

For $400 I would say it's not worth it. I have the harbor freight 2300 psi and it works perfectly for the half the price. Same difference they both start off zero pressure and build up which I hate but it is what it is. I really do miss the instant pressure from the 2000 psi from the Ryobi.

[@matsudakodo]

They don't start at 0 pressure, they start at maximum pressure. Check your gauge, it sits at max when idle. My wand kicks hard when I pull the trigger. What happens is the pressure drops, then recovers. It's not a big deal to me. The 2300 is a little different in that the ramp up is slower.
