  • BRANDS TESTED: Ryobi, Karcher, Stanley, Sun Joe, WEN, CAT, WORX & Yard Force. Electric pressure washers tested for maximum pressure (PSI) and pump output (gallons per minute). High pressure washers also tested for removing dirt and mold from wood and timed for applying and removing soap from a vehicle. I purchased all of the pressure washers. So, thanks for supporting the channel.

      If you want to give one away, let me know. I was about to start a residential pressure washing business where I just moved to, and someone stole my dang equipment out of the building it was stored in, 3 hours away where I'm originally from.
      Let my tool insurance lapse due to financial difficulties, like a moron, and learned an expensive lesson.
      I know these aren't made for most residential jobs, but having a small one is great for some jobs.

      Would a test of battery powered power washers be worth it. I recently purchased a Dwalt 40 volt power washer thinking possibly that a DC powered motor with the advantage of a DC batteries inherently greater ability to provide more power than a 120 volt AC powered system. I was seriously disappointed and immediately returned it. Dwalt should be embarrassed by offering such a poor performing piece of equipment. Maybe there are other manufacturers that are offering better options. I hope you decide to test this option.

      i had to buy a 1/2 " impact and without project farm i'd of spent way more trying to keep loyal to Bosch, buying a 5ah battery to use with an existing charger, then the tool itself.
      was cheaper to buy a milwaulkee with 2 batteries a charger and the tool. and its rated higher, weighs less and is more compact by a long shot than the bosch equivalent.

    • @smileyguyz
      @smileyguyz 3 роки тому +8

      @False Flag I do. As an automotive detailing enthusiast, you'll never get that layer off with just a pressure wash. Usually you can make it more manageable by washing your vehicle more frequently, as the dirt tends to embed deeper the longer it sits. I recommend ceramic coating, or waxing, if you want to be able to just blast it off every once in a while. Doesn't keep it perfectly clean, but it really helps. Even the cheaper kits you'll find on Amazon should do the trick.

      If you dont release the pressure in the system after using it by pulling the trigger after you have unplugged it from power and water then at first frost the water left inside the pump will freeze, expand and break your pressure washer. Warranty doesn't cover that as it's in the instructions. Just because no one reads them the pressure washer company wins every year when you need to buy a new one! 🤣

    Love your videos, I actually was just looking to buy one of these. One thing I would really like to see, is if you just open the pressure washers and show us what's inside, it doesn't have to be extensive, just a quick look would tell me a lot, for instance you might see plastic parts vs metal and different pump styles. Anyway keep up the good work!

    Todd, I (and I am sure many others) would like to see a comparison of "consumer grade" carpet cleaners (not professional steam extractors). Comparing Hoover, Eureka, Bissell and even Rug Doctor, for cleaning ability and durability would be great. It would be nice to see how these carpet cleaners work on "real world" dirt, as opposed to the staged settings the manufacturers show them working in. Personally, I have always had good luck with Bissell, but it would be great to see how all of the leading brands perform against each other. Just a suggestion. Take care.

      I BBQ alot. 4-5 days a week. All year long. I have had almost every propane BBQ made. Full size and portable. Most work pretty good overall and will cook food. The real issue with propane BBQ's is longevity and price. Because I'm a cheapskate, I tried most cheaper brands. None worked at 100% for more than 3 years. None. Usually 1 1/2-2 years and the igniter doesn't work. Also the burners start to go. Then one year I got a weber genesis as a birthday present. I knew the webers were good because other family members had them. After 22 years, I finally rebuilt it with a new igniter and burners. Worked like new again. I gave it to my son and now it's almost 30 years old and still cooks like a champ. I started picking up old weber that people threw out and I rebuild them and sell them cheap. So easy to do.
      I would love to see a BBQ shootout. I think the hardest thing to test would be longevity so we would need yearly updates. Weber BBQs are usually at least twice as much as most other BBQ but will last almost forever. You really can't compare the overall value and even cooking of a weber to ANY other BBQ in my life experience. Also the weber company is such a pleasure to deal with. I'm looking forward to this video if/when it happens. Thanks for all your hard work!

    I've had the Sun Joe for a few years now and it's been pretty good. These tests are pretty accurate to my experience. One thing I highly recommend for any of these pressure washers, especially the adjustable tip ones, is to get an inline filter for your hose. It'll save you a lot of hassle by stopping mineral deposits from clogging the nozzles up.

      some of the claims companies make if they hear that, Must feel like a lock company who prints "Unpickable ultra security" on their lock and then see it on the Lock Picking Lawyer channel.
      Seems all products are the same, the more adwords on the box the more bullshit it is as a product.

    The pressure washer labyrinth online is a frustrating web of fake reviews and rebadged clone units. I'm so glad Project Farm has started to try to sort it all out.
    I ended up going with a Harbor Freight unit with the Predator 212 engine for just a few bucks more than the CAT.
    Thanks for a great test, PF!

      @Ben C Yeah, I have a Honda-based pressure washer from 1997 - I replaced the pump this year, but the engine is still going strong. The old pump was still working, but one of the oil seals on the crank case (of the pump, not the engine) was shot, and oil leaked out, and water got into the crank case. One of the ceramic plungers was cracked which probably started all the problems (probably froze :( ) - you'd be lucky to get 2 or 3 years out of one of these little toys, compared to 24 years out of a quality unit.

    Bought the Active VE52 (same as Cat brand tested) and no regrets. 2 GPM is hard to beat. They are King of the budget electric pressure washers. Active actually references this Project Farm comparison in one of their videos. Thanks for this comparison. Love this channel and been subscribed for quite some time. Keep up the great work!
