![]() ![]() That was about 5 years ago of heavy use and the pump has since failed and I replaced it with an Ebay pump (last year) for $65. By the next year, that electric died and I bought a $279 Chinese Homelite gas PW and the same job took me two hours. I tried doing a 1-car driveway with an electric and it took me two days. The biggest benefit to a gas PW is that there is enough torque available to make both pressure AND flow which gets a lot more work done. They will break after a few seasons (the pump will go bad) but they all use one of three basic pump styles which are available for replacement on Amazon or Ebay for $60. They will break, it will be soon, and repairing it will cost three times as much as buying a new one if the parts are even available.Ĭonsumer gas PWs are a little beefier, but not terribly stout. The only electric I ever used that was decent was an industrial Karcher that costs about $2500.Ĭonsumer electric PWs use proprietary parts and are designed very cheaply. I personally would not do an electric again. ![]()
