I'm wanting a p-washer like everyone else. Can't seem to come up with the $ needed for what I want. I want Gas, at least 2500 psi. I have an import store near me that has "serviced" units quite often. They look new and mostly are, but had a problem that factory supposedly repaired/replaced. They have a Karcher model now on sale for $269 that is a 6.5 hp Briggs and 2300 psi/2.5gals/hr and looks real good. Nice big wheels on cart (air tires) heavy metal wand with replaceable tips, and external brass pump. What worries me is a block diecast "gear" box? or something on engine shaft before the pump. It looks like a right angle drive or something. Are Karcher's generally a good brand? What you think the "box" is? Anyone have luck with "factory serviced" stuff or is it just junk and trouble?
I know Harbor and Northern have a lot of units, just not as cheap and then shipping too. Ideas?
I have used my buddies plastic "cheapie" washer some, and it's OK, just not big enough power for stuff I usually do.
