    Ha.

    I would try a different forum. All of the members here are too worried about their own bodies.

    We don't have time to pressure wash shit.


    Sorry I don't have better advice. I would go with the Briggs because I am familiar with that brand. I would bet that pressure washers are built similar to all motorized outdoor equipment, expensive, fickle bitches with ethanol, and likely to break within the first three years. Nothing lasts anymore.

        I've had my Honda for 4 years and can still start it on the first pull. Put some stabilizer in the fuel and forget about it. Think I paid around $400 for the 3000 psi.

          Pretty sure anything with a Honda engine will be the most reliable but also the most expensive.

          Not sure about the pressure washer but I bought a generator 2 years back and spent a lot of time researching. I selected the Generac over the Briggs. I have had zero issues with it but I do preventive maintenance on it every year too.

              They seem like they need to be well maintained. My stepdad had one when I was a kid and it seems to me that we had a new one every few years because it would end up breaking one way or another.

                That's what happens when you go to walmart and buy a pressure washer or anything with an engine. Pay the extra money and get one that is reliable.

                  Nah my step dad lived in home depot. He never went for the cheap shit but I think the issue is that he never really maintained it either. We had a big ass one. One that came with a big ass hand cart and rubber air tires.

                    Haven't done a single thing to mine besides putting gas in it. I did a lot of research before buying it and the Honda consistently had solid reviews for low maintenance and easy starting even after sitting for long periods.

                      I'm anal when it comes to maintenance with everything I own that has an engine. Especially for my generator. When the power is out it needs to start. But yes, Honda gets amazing reviews.

                        We had a Honda lawn mower that was beat to hell cutting shit it wasn't designed for, oil never changed in it for years. That little fucker never died.

                        If only Honda was this reliable in formula 1 holy fuck their engine is garbage.
