Mine finally bit the dust so I am looking for a gas in $300-$400 range, 2.4 to 2.8 GPM. What are you using and what do you like about it?

Kinda leaning towards Gererac or Simpson so far. Not sure if I would use the adjustable pressure on the Generac.

You can find places online that sell a pressure washer with a Honda GX motor mated to a Cat pump. I've had mine for 10+ years, neveer had an issue.

Got this one a year ago and frankly, I'm more than impressed for an off-brand/Chinese washer. Starts first pull and is every bit as good as the $600 2800 Honda powered washer it replaced. For $290 to my door, I would definitely buy one again.

I’ve had this one for about 4 years now. I’ve cleaned bikes, quads, vehicles, concrete, wood decks, houses etc. Plenty of power and haven’t had a single issue with it

Forgot my picture lol

I have had this generac model for a while, good reviews and best bang for the buck I think.

Buy a Karcher without a doubt. Don't know if they sell in the US. But here in Europe almost everybody uses them. And they are one of the big sponsors of MXGP for many years now. And i like to support a company that supports our sport Smile

I use a Kacher K2. Had it for a couple years now, recently bought the foam gun for it which when used with Muc-Off is incredible. Keeps my bike looking slick.

The K2 is designed for mtb and dirtbikes and is plenty powerful, but not so much that it damages graphics etc. I'd 100% recommend it!

Bought a DeWalt at Home Depot
Came with the Honda motor and Cat Pump, I’ve abused it for 14 years without a single hiccup !
I’ve changed the oil in it twice.
It gets used twice a week on the regular.

I got this. I'm not a big fan of pressure washers but they were $79. I don't use it all the time bit it does the job when I do use it.

I really expected the "You should never use a pressure washer...." camp to respond as the first completely irrelevant response to the OP's question. Good for you.

I had the Greenworks Lowes special, died on me after a year and went with a more expensive A&R, well that shit the brick in 2 years. Realized with how much use my washer gets its cheaper to buy the cheaper Greenworks from Lowes with the $29 protection plan and get it replaced for free anytime it dies in the next 3 years.

Honda engine with comet or cat pump. Mine is over 20 years old and never had to do anything to it. Northern tool is your best bet as others have mentioned.
