SHOULD You Buy The Harbor Freight Portland Pressure Washer? | Dad Deals

[@billhosier1982]

The counter guy was pushing the warranty on an $80.00 pressure washer. I told him, a decent wash at a car wash is $10.00. If I get 8 washs between our 2 cars, I'm good. This washer did 6 980 square foot homes, plus the roof twice. Blew the moss of 2 12 x 12 shed roofs, at least 7 pressure washing of a concrete patio plus furniture. Oh, I lost count on the car washings! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@TacoBell5DollarBox]

got mine two years ago for $74.99. Its not that great for sidewalks but really good for cars. My soap dispenser works really well and foams the whole car.

[@DadDeals]

maybe i should try a different soap

[@PapaJohn1969]

Enjoying this pressure washer for the past year. Now adding updates to help last longer

[@SurferJoe46]

I bought one 18 months ago and it has been a good pressure washer for me. I stored it all Winter at -30°F in a dry but unheated shed here in Montana and it ran just fine this Spring. I use it to clean my lawn mowers and moderately greasy engines and undercarriages on cars I own. If I had to remove paint I'd get a bigger/more powerful unit, but that's not why I bought it. I'm satisfied with it.

[@DadDeals]

Thanks for sharing!

[@Goodluck27711]

Would be strong enough to power wash my deck so I can treat it for winter

[@erikwilson7622]

I've had one for 3 years now, only occasional work. I leave outside in unheated garage. It has worked great for washing my wood deck and vehicles. Works great when I have used to clean off a boiled deer and elk skull for European mounts. My only complaint was how easy the nozzle adjusts, I kept turning, um bumping it to straight on spray, and that will bore through soft pine!

[@darrennewton88]

I bought it worked pretty good .used it to wash my toy hauler and rzr ..was happy only gripe is how short the hose is ..any know were to get a extended hose ..im sure amazon .but not sure what size to get. Took it out box and trashed it with all figurations

[@normden]

Good review. Yes - a good value and upgrades are relatively inexpensive too. Can topple-over and black trim can’t handle Texas sun when stored; so cover-up.

[@mv-db4463]

Basically - the soap dispenser you got (100% Black Top one) is defective and you need to go to the store or call their customer service line and get a replacement. The GREEN tipped (smaller) bottle is the replacement and works like a charm! I use it to shoot foam 20' feet in the air to clean the siding of my house.

[@DadDeals]

interesting, thanks!

[@Kayenta66]

Great review! No fuss and straight facts. Appreciate it!

[@simongendry1823]

Have now used this to clean house siding and it performed well kzbin.infoUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX I also bought some wand extensions which enabled higher washing without needing a ladder. I recommend both. This unit arrived quickly, was easy to assemble (only had to attach the handle), and arrived in perfect condition. The only very slight downgrade from a perfect score is the design has a low handle and requires pulling from the side. My old washer was an upright model, while this one is more horizontal. Other than that, it's perfect for my needs. It has a great deal of pressure and more easily cleaned the house siding, porch rails and concrete than did my older model. The engine is a bit louder, as well, but the total time to clean was reduced by the more powerful spray. Did I mention it starts on the first or second pull every time?!! I am definitely happy with this model.

[@chrislewis5069]

I’ve used this pressure and it’s work very well. It’s better than the ryobis I’ve used

[@ztl0927]

1 thing worth noting is if you're on a well be mindful that if air gets into the system it does act up nothing to major but can cause you to take frequent little breaks

[@Coxfame]

I am in construction, I do own a commercial gas powered pressure washer. Picked up this little guy on sale like for $69. Only use it to wash ladders, trucks etc .. it's pretty handy.

[@lulilangam]

thank you, i was looking at this washer and i am so glad I ran into you, thank brother😃

[@DadDeals]

Glad I could help

[@AlonSOAMAZING]

Is this pressure washer strong enough. To strip the dirt off of wood fences ?

[@bret_Lambky]

I have this power washer. Mine does have the interchangeable tips. I was concerned about being electric! But with the extra long cord and surge protectors it works fine. I like the compact size compared to my old gas powered washer. It’s well worth the money and works well for the power range.

[@DadDeals]

wow interesting, i like the twist nozzle but it should come with the quick connect adapter included

[@bret_Lambky]

@@DadDeals mine came with three high pressure nozzles and one low side sprayer. I believe we bought it at Sam’s. Interesting that you didn’t receive additional nozzles. I wonder why, unless they have different configurations for different stores.

[@TruckingPerfected2]

It worked well last year for me but after using it to wash my truck a few times, water is pouring out the trigger/gun. I've taken it apart a few times but it keeps happening. I'm now searching for a replacement.

[@Vale-jg1zm]

Picked it up for 65$ hopefully it works well for me

[@1nvd]

What’s the best way to ensure you’ve drained all the water and etc

[@911life5]

I leave a cheap electric pressure washer hanging from the wall outside hooked up. It’s perfect for cleaning things off on the back patio, including kids things. That’s all I need it for. Mine just kicked the bucket and this looks perfect. No need for extra adapters

[@thomasmorse6692]

Thanks for the review. Was considering buying as it is on sale currently for $69.99, Spring Black Friday.

[@jenniferrafiner933]

How long of a hose were you using with it? I was not getting good pressure out of mine the first couple of times I tried it. But I also might not have used the nozzle properly.

[@lhenderson292]

It's on sale today...not for $69.99. Is this good for power washing a fence? The non wood white kind that surrounds houses?

[@DadDeals]

only issue with a fence is the power cord

[@stevennevins6643]

I can’t imagine this being able to clean concrete. I have a 2700 psi Greenworks pressure washer. It will deep clean my driveway, but only with the “turbo tip” attachment that most concentrates the water stream.

[@DadDeals]

yea it does ok, if you get a surface cleaner it can do a small section pretty well

[@alyseyre9881]

With the portland electric pressure washer, it literally took me all day to clean patio, driveway & sidewalks. Not much better than just using a hose. I finally broke down and bought a gas powered pressure washer.

[@sall7029]

Good enough for using on wood decks? Does it allow for adding stripping or cleaning chemicals ?

[@mjhepburn11]

I had bought the same pressure washer on January 19th for $84.99. I happened to notice that they were offered for $69.99 this week. I asked today whether they would honor the price, and they gave me a price adjustment. I used the refund toward the club membership, so I was able to buy the rest of the stuff I needed today at the club price reductions. Great review of the extra accessories for the washer. I haven't used mine yet, so I may pick up a couple of the extras you mentioned before I fire it up. Thanks!!

[@DadDeals]

wow glad they did that for you

[@BOOSTEDDUDE]

@mjhepburn11 Can you confirm the green tipped one works great for the foam sprayer? Thanks man

[@lupedelgado2040]

This was a good review, you gave a lot of information in a short video.

[@e_thegod5303]

I have dried paint text on my car and want it to stay on there and wondering if I put soap on the car and just sprayed over it would it come off .. if it stays i'd get this product but my wonder is all in the air for now ..

[@CJdriftZ]

Glad to see that sell an adapter, gonna try this out thanks.

[@BOOSTEDDUDE]

Nice review. Do you know if you can use a bucket for the water source? I bought a PowRyte Electric Pressure Washer 3800 psi that's supposed to work with a bucket water source. I spent all morning messing with it and it didn't spray any water at all! Very frustrating after spending over $100 on chemical guys supplies that I will also probably have to return. I might try this one if I see it on sale and can confirm I can get the "Green Tipped" foam dispenser others mentioned working good. Thanks for any info!

[@candacenicole-dh1bs]

I got one of these today and it works super good and simple. Make me wonder how much better could these get?

[@DadDeals]

nice! glad you like it

[@lynnh7694]

I got an upgrade hose that was flexible, the hose that comes with the unit is annoying. It works for the price point.

[@bmf216]

Can you tell me if this power washer is good enough for cleaning the siding on your house?

[@DadDeals]

It can, would take a little longer though

[@steveboyes2090]

Great review. Thanks.

[@DadDeals]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Davidle404]

Does it fit the m22?

[@bobbyblanco5351]

What size is the hose ?

[@eastcoastken]

I've been very hesitant to buy this model. But I want one for washing cars.

[@DadDeals]

If you’re using it for washing cars, this model is perfect.

[@thomaspeltz8577]

I really wanted to hear how loud it was and if the pump turns on/off with the wand trigger.

[@DadDeals]

not very loud and yes it turns on/off with the wand trigger

[@joseph3520]

It’s been good to me

[@ron5722]

Would it work to clean outdoor decks?

[@DadDeals]

yea definitely, a surface cleaner attachment may help though

Who makes a electric pw that's putting out at least 2.5gpm? All the ones I find are under 2

[@BH-gh6qm]

the soap dispensor didnt foam up for me too but it did get the soap on the car and thats all that matters. Ive read that foam cannons dont actually have any extra benefit

[@DadDeals]

the extra benefit to foaming is that you don’t use as much soap.
