Electric pressure washer that's worth buying?

[Az Scooter]

This is what i do for a living, if it was me, and with no major budget, and Annovi Reverbi AR630 is a really good machine with commercial grade parts. It is about $600 on Amazon, but it will last longer than the standard big box store pressure washers

I have one of these and it has been going strong for over 2 years.

a friend of mine's father in law gave him one of these last week, we tried it out last weekend, it worked pretty decently! And it's nowhere near as loud as the "96db" that it says it is.

The only thing that didn't really impress me was the 45 and 25 degree nozzles seemed to be stronger on the outside edges, and weaker in the middle of the stream. I don't know if that's normal or not, I've never used one with that wide of a spray.

That looks like a sure enough commercial unit in a homeowner package, I like it.

Let me ask you this, I have 2 commerical pumps, a General and a CAT, I think the CAT is a 2.5 GPM pump and the general is probably less.
The CAT had a Baldor 240v 5hp motor on it that I robbed for my air compressor.

For less money I can buy another 5 hp motor and If I can get 3000 psi and 2.5 GPM out of the CAT/5hp that is almost triple the cleaning units of the residential types, would that be worth the hassle for general cleaning, cars, RV's boats etc,? The 240v won't really be a problem for me as I have outlets and cord to reach the wash area.

Have the electrics gotten better now? I hate pulling on my gas pressure washer and would love to just plug one in.

I have a honda throw away 2300 psi unit and the unloader sucks, it will kill the engine half the time and I am going to send that bitch to hell when I get another one, the thought of plugging it in washing sounds so relaxing

I've got a 20 year old Karcher that I use regularly. It has done everything from knock paint off of siding for a repaint, stripped stain off a redwood deck 2 times, and washed my vehicles, camper, and greaseball truck parts. 20 years of regular use and I have zero complaints. I used it last weekend after I got red clay on the white paint on the new taco.

Same, my honda has bungee on it to hold it wide open now. I figure with as nice as all the new electric impacts are, someone might of fixed the pressure washers now.
