Recommendation for Pressure Washer
Looking for recommendations on an electric, low pressure power washer maybe 1600-1800 max psi.
See use for cleaning my 991 sport techno wheels, to clean garage floor, etc. I have heard Kranzle and Karcher are good.
What models you like? Not wanting to spend $1k if I can get a decent quality one for less. Just won't use it that much to justify $1k.

FWIW. I found the electrics do not last very long. For the money you are better off buying gas with a Honda engine and a decent pump. The pumps on these things wear out over time and you can replace them. Northern tool has a good selection and carries parts. Buy once and buy right.

During the last decade, I must have bought 4 different brands of machines but they kept braking.
Two years ago, my wife asked me what I wanted for my birthday.
Guess what, a Kranzle. Great machine. The only issue is that I can't keep the ON trigger on unless I hold it, can't lock it.

It's easier to select the best pressure washer from trust reviews. It make you reduce time to research all model in the market.

I have been using an Harbor Freight pressure washer for about a year. It cost $100 and it just works. If it fails 3-4 years from now I'll just get another one.
Re pressure - 1500PSI is the right (safe) pressure to wash a car. Bigger is not better in this case.

I would agree we were breaking machines every 10-20 washes with the other ones from Lowes and Home Depot and we have moved over to the Kranzle.
We have one that we have been using for 4 years for just about everyday, we picked up a newer one last year with the auto on off and the newer one is even better!
What's great about these is with the proper maintenance these will last a very very long time. We have resealed the two machines once.
let me know if I can help we are a Kranzle dealer as well as a sponsor.

I like the Harbor Freight electric washer too. I've had their smallest power washer ($80 on sale) for 4 years and it's still going strong with regular car wash duty and occasional deck/patio cleaning. The only negative is that the hose is quite stiff and the wand/nozzle setting is touchy, but I'm replacing them with better stuff with more a common end fitting. There's a HF outlet nearby so it was convenient, but I suppose most of the 1600 psi economy washers at Sears, HD, etc come off the same line in China. I don't have a lot of storage space so the compactness is a plus too.

I have been using the Ryobi electric pressure washer for a couple of years now.
I am not a pro, so I don't use it multiple times a day everyday, but I use it about once a week. Either washing one of my vehicles or using it to clear the deck, fence, or whatever needs a cleaning.
Hasn't failed me once. Uses standard attachments.
