Product Description
Our most powerful pressure washer to date, Now with improved technology, the Earthwise PWO2200 pressure washer can reach 2000 PSI. This washer is ideal for cleaning larger surfaces including sidewalks, decks and patios. In addition with a built-in detergent tank. you simply turn on a knob to add car wash or concrete cleaner. If you do lots of cleaning, you'll love this feature.
A basic car wash with gas will run you around ten dollars. Considering that one might wash the car once a week over the coarse of a summer at ten dollars which means over the year you will pay for the pressure washer
Electric power washers require less maintenance than gas-powered models. Electric models are quieter than gas-powered washers. They need less space and no special preparation when put in storage for both short and long periods. If the need arises, electric power washers can be used indoors as they don't produce toxic fumes like gas models.

 Failed and failed some more August 15, 2010

Things started out badly when the washer wouldn't turn off the pump and just drove it until the breakers tripped. I figured out the correct sequence for starting it up to make the auto-shutoff work properly (turn on water, hold trigger so water flows, turn on machine, wait for full pressure, release trigger and auto-shutoff should engage). Unfortunately the machine has now blown three holes in the hose and it's unusable. I'm probably going to try to repair it with a better quality hose since I think it's warranty was kind of short and mine may not be covered anymore, plus I think their hose is cheap and can't handle the pressure as it were.
All in all, I probably about broke even from what I would've spent on renting pressure washers in the time I did get to use this, so it isn't a total bust, but really this thing is junk. Giving it two stars for being inexpensive and for working reasonably well while it did work. If they fixed the auto-shutoff and used a better quality hose this would be a pretty decent machine and a great value.

 Great washer & horrible manual. July 26, 2010
Liena (South Africa)
We bought the Earthwise pressure washer 2000 PSI. We read the manual and followed the very brief instructions. The connection between the washer and the garden hose leaked a lot. The pressure was bad, and we could not figure out how to get the soap out of the container and onto the house. After searching for information on the internet and trying it again, it finally worked.
Leaking at garden hose connection: just press the male/female connector in further, until you hear a second click. It is easier to connect the hose to the connector first, then the connector to the machine.
About the soap: turn the green plastic nozzle at the end of the spray gun to the low pessure spray. After you start the machine, pull this green plastic nozzle out, towards the front (away from the handle side). The copper nut will be visible now, and doesn't look like it is inside of the green plastic part. We struggled to get it out the first time. You may even need a second person to (carefully) pull on the other end. It was really stuck in there.
Just another tip, don't leave your soap in the machine overnight; it leaks out. We left it in there while we tried to figure all of this out.
The pressure was great when we tried it the second day. The key was the second click of the male/female connector.
Be careful on doors, it takes the paint off. So far no problem on the siding of our house.
Earthwise definitely needs to improve the manual.
I hope this will help.
Bottom line,after some research and effort, IT WORKS GREAT!
HORRIBLE PIECE OF JUNK !!! July 18, 2010

This machine is the worst thing I have ever bought. It is very difficult to put together due to the vague directions found in the instruction manual. There were several pieces missing from the box, which customer service sent fairly quickly. The pressure hose is extremely stiff; prone to kinking and bending. It is a design nightmare. The hose burst the first time I used the machine, so the pressure washer was useless. I made another call to customer service to request a replacement hose and was told it was out of stock. It took well over a month to get a new one. The customer service agent stated that many people had experienced similar problems with the hose. Please don't buy one of these, you will regret it. However if you do make that mistake, keep the customer service phone number handy, you will need it.
Complete garbage. Cheaply made and arrived DOA July 7, 2010
Sedentary lifestyle
As other buyers have said, this is poorly designed, cheaply made, and a complete crap shoot as to whether you'll receive one that works or doesn't. Instead of gambling good money on this item invest in something that has real metal fittings (not plastic couplers and connections) and has a better track record than these.
