Westinghouse ePX3100v Electric Pressure Washer, 2100 Max PSI 1.76 Max GPM, Built-in Carry Handle, Detachable Foam Cannon, Pro-Style Steel Wand, 3-Nozzle Set, for Cars/Fences/Driveways/Home/Patios

an excellent homeowner pressure washer
Of the three pressure washers I’ve owned in the past 40 years, this one is way more useful: light but sturdy, easy to carry, relatively quiet, well designed, more than enough power to wash pool filters, keep decks clean and maybe wash the van. The first was gas and required yearly maintenance, was loud and smelly. The second was an early electric given to me by a departing neighbor which was heavy and loud but easier to use than the old gas hog: I think it was >30 years old when it died. It’s fairly priced for home use and I hope, durable.

Small and convenient
Nice and compact. Gets the job done for car washing and light pressure washing jobs. Could use some hooks or attachments to hold the hose and power.

Pressure washing… a zen-like ASMR experience!
This is my first experience with a pressure washer so I didn’t know what to expect but I’m glad that I made the leap and finally bought one! I chose this ePX3100v for its compact size (storage space in my garage is an issue) as well as its advertised power. Since I had nothing to compare to I didn’t think that I’d be sacrificing anything by not going with something a bit bigger and I was proved correct – this little thing can move a serious amount of dirt and grime!As part of my lists of summertime projects to get done, one of the items was to clean and seal my brick pavers at the entry to my home. First I tried a masonry cleaning solution that you apply with a pump sprayer, let sit, then rinse off with a hose. Though that sort of worked, it can’t compare to the speed, ease, and overall better results of this pressure washer (and without the chemicals leeching into my front yard). As a side note, in my free time I often play video games and there’s this wildly popular game called Power Washer Simulator and I never understood why it was so popular because all you do in the game is literally clean and wash things with a pressure washer. After my first afternoon using the 3100 I kind of get it now – there’s something so satisfying and surprisingly to me – something so relaxing about blasting away dirt and grime! For my front entryway I plan on filling the gaps in between each brick paver with polymeric sand and with the 25° nozzle I was able to blast away the mossy dirt and algae that’s been collecting in those gaps and the end result looks like the pavers were just laid! I look forward to cleaning my fences, soffits, and backyard concrete paths and patio!Other things I liked about the 3100? I like that the wand and nozzle tips are the standard quick connect so you can buy other tips virtually anywhere. I appreciated that the washer would turn itself off and not allow water to flow when you weren’t pressing the trigger, and most of all I like that the unit seems to be well built. Sure it’s plastic but it feels solid unlike the first pressure washer that I looked at at my local big box store. It was from the green brand and about the same size but it felt flimsy and didn’t inspire confidence in lasting for very long.I did have a couple of very small gripes though – The power cord is thankfully long but there’s no built in cable management so you end up having to coil up the cord and plop it down wherever it’s convenient for you. In my case I just sat it on top of the unit. It would have been fairly easy to mold a couple of pegs or stand offs into the washer’s case or simply include a velcro wrap like what was provided on the hose, but at the end of the day it’s not a deal breaker by any means. As I said, this little washer packs quite a punch! I don’t know if it’s needed or not but the power cord simply exits the washer’s case – there’s no built in strain relief like you’d find almost everywhere else as they’re so ubiquitous but Westinghouse didn’t design it into the 3100. Again, I don’t know if it was need but it would have given a bit of piece of mind. Lastly, the washer shipped from Florida (I’m in NY) and it shipped in it’s own product packaging meaning there was no shipping box. When I received the package I heard a few bits and pieces rattling around inside and I thought to myself – “Great, it arrived broken”, but thankfully it arrived intact. The rattling I heard was just the soap attachment moving around (FWIW, there’s NO padding/packing foam inside the box). Despite these minor gripes, I’m very happy with this 3100!

Compact and functional
Easy to use and is a lot of power in a small package.

The unit arrived with a US plug. Appreciate you can buy an adaptor but, when it’s a UK customer, it would make sense to supply with a UK plug.The water feed also didn’t fit a UK tap, again not ideal.It’s been returned and I’ve ordered a Karcher – plug and play.

Was shipped from US with US plug and voltage. Not compatible with UK use.
