- This isn't a super scientific or technical video. I wanted to compare the motors and pumps between some of these cheap pressure washers that seem to have the same internals.

Florida man attacks pressure washer with ax in field.
I need parts for mine
This is certainly not a video from which to learn how to disassemble a Sunjoe SPX3000.
Another way to look at this is SunJoe makes a product that is very affordable for many people who aren't consumed with having the best pressure washer ever made in the entire universe since they don't make their living using it as their main tool. I think it's safe to say that many products are like this. Manufacturers seek out their market and try to fulfill a need while competing with other manufacturers who are doing the same thing. Your Krantzle washer just might be the ultimate for somebody is the business but it really wouldn't make sense for Joe Homeowner, who simply wants to wash his car or deck every now and then to spend $1500 or more on something that will get the job done nicely for under $200. He expects the $200 product to last a few years and if it breaks, no big deal because he got his money's worth. As a businessman, I'm sure you understand this so it is confusing why you pick on these cheaper products. You can see many videos on youtube where end users are thrilled with their SunJoe, Ryobi or Greenworks washers. I'm imagining some other person who loves Mercedes-Benz or BMW cars ripping Hyundais or Mazdas because their 0-60 mph time is .7 seconds slower or their stopping distance from 100-0 mph takes an extra 12 feet. I'd start to wonder about a guy like that if he took an axe to the cheaper cars, wouldn't you? What might be more normal and more sane would be for that person to let the viewer know that "for the money", these Hyundais and Mazdas are really great cars and although they may not be in the same class as the BMW or Mercedes, they get the job they were designed to do done quite nicely and they are affordable for many people. Hey...just a suggestion. If you want to beat up on SunJoe, feel free. I bought one myself a few years ago and have been using it without any problems. It cleans my cement, my fences, my cars and many other things and does a great job. For the money, I would say SunJoe is a great product and does exactly what it is supposed to do without any problems at all. Take care and keep that axe sharp!!
The SunJoe was least favorite of all of the pressure washers I tested. When you buy 75% of the pressure washers on the market, test them all, and figure out how to improve them, then you are allowed to say whatever you want. This is my experience with them based on quite a bit of facts.
This has got to be the strangest Obsessed Garage video ever...lol
It seems as though his videos are getting more and more comical. I’m not complaining though lol
I like to keep you on your toes.
I'm glad he went to such lengths to give us this free content.
Don’t take the damn thing apart you’ll let the squirrels out! 🤣
11:40 like the Office Space printer scene. But without the Ghetto boys music.
Same thing I thought of too. So goddamn good.
Yea. But that was the org music
FS: Two Sunjoe pressure washers barely used mint condition
Trash
This is a GREAT series Matt! Thank you again for taking all the painful hours to go through this 😉
I've watched every minute of all the videos, and thankful that I did because I changed my mind on getting a Sunjoe 3001 and ended up buying a Karcher 1700 off Amazon for cheaper than the SJ and am really happy with it after the first few washes! Granted I have the OG gun/wand/3.0 nozzles/cobrajet hose with all the SS fittings, so I've spent about double modifying the Karcher as I actually spent on the machine itself, but it all works well for around $400 total invested.
Ok this is everything we could have wanted
I disassembled a Cessna 172 and a LearJet 35 and found the Cessna 172 to be very inferior to the LearJet. In other words, not that this guy is a lunatic but, you just can't compare an inexpensive consumer product to an expensive product made for professionals. Why would you do that? I get the fact that he gets paid by "youtube" for successful highly watched videos but this is really out there. The one saving factor is he's always entertaining in that he holds nothing back. The man is dead serious when it comes to pressure washers. That's a fact, Jack!
Matt demolishing the Stupid Joe is by far my favorite experience ever, was definitely expecting an Office Space reference
I'm looking forward to seeing the numbers from all these machines.
That looked so satisfying. Matt giving the people what they want!
After dealing with all those crappy pressure washers for weeks, it had to feel good to take the Stupid Joe for a ride on the pain train!
The SunJoe is NOT skookum
he let the pixies out when he smashed it
Now we know OG's signature fatality #FinishHim
lol hydraulic press channel lol the music
VAAAWT DEE FAAARK hahahahaha best channel
Matt The Gangster trashing the SunJoe LOL Let's Do THIS!
My Sunjoe spx4000 has been fine, but can't wait to upgrade to the Kranzle 1322TS in the spring!
Best use of a splitting maul ever!!
It makes me laugh every time, how much Matt seems to hate Sunjoe like it's his arch enemy
Junk...
@@ObsessedGarage what brand of electric pressure washer would you recommend? I have the sun Joe and I too have come to have intense hatred for this heap of crap.
@@skeller0160 none of them
First time ever coming across this guys channel but I was watching this under the assumption he came home one day to find Sunjoe in bed with his wife.
The office space printer scene music would have been perfect when you axed the SunJoe. 😂😂😂 They even have a clean version you could edit.
The lifts work well as a bench. You need a thick rubber mat to place on top. Help keep things in place and not scratch paint. Cut down cattle mat would work. Make a plywood platform with cleats to hold in place, mount rubber to it.
Oh this is exactly what I wanted to see after watching the other videos.
6 minutes of the 16 minute video is spent watching him unscrew the case screws?
It's absolutely fantastic that you are eating the cost of these things in order to do this; it's incredibly valuable information for us "obsessed" type people. -- Since you always use your lift as a workbench for videos due to it's convenient location for camera angles, why not get some kind of tabletop made for the lift that you can add and remove when you need to use it for these type of video? It would be considerably more convenient than trying to just use the lift pad space and it would still allow you to put the camera where you need it.
I took my generator to this guy for repair, and it came back 30 lbs lighter.
How does he do it?
The intro is EPIC! SledgeJoe
Showing everything except what I needed, which is to remove the outlet hose which seems impossible to remove on the 3000.
Roy I 3 yr warranty, sun joe 2, AR1. I found a son joe on the side of the road and it has done great for the past four years finally took a crap on me. There was a craftsman unit that my great uncle gave me baby used twice it died during the third job just cleaning a deck. Although the craftsman looked a lot like the sun Joe I did not completely tear them both apart, the sun Joe outlasted every one I’ve had including gas powered so I think I might try them again even the Ryobi have the highest ratings and reviews I never thought much of any Ryobi product other than possibly a pressure washer. I know for a fact I do not want to be pulling in pulling in pulling while holding the trigger only to have it die once I get up the ladder, at least these electric ones work when you start them up.
My biggest lesson is that you want to purge hoses completely not only of air bubbles but of debris including but not limited to dirt Dobbers and nests, wait until the water runs clear! I’m pretty sure this contributed to my unit demise. Thanks for the videos, cheers!
Nice working space!
Awesome. Thank you. Some things are just junk.
Must be a stirdy pressure washer if matt cant open it up
That super haggard hacksaw segment was the absolute best.
Best intro yet
I can hear the sunjoe STOOGES screaming in anger over that intro.
And the Kranzle nerds talking about the sunjoe stooges.
SunJoe for life!
Now this would be a good sponsorship video lol
Best. Video. Ever.
Never take my Sunjoe to be fixed by you, that’s for sure🤣😂
Maybe watch a video on how to unscrew something
I don't know why, but this video makes me feel happy.
I want to do that to my SPX3001. Need to save up for a Kranzle first.
Best. Intro. Ever
Wow! I would have never thought that the bigger pressure washer had a bigger pump than the smaller pressure washer! And that the bigger pump even weighed more!!! Fucking mind blowing!!!!
Matt has snapped due to the pressure washers 🤣 🤣
Best pressure washer review ever 😂
You should open up the green works brushless and see if you can't figure how to defeat the ramp up delay.
Anger management classes matt 😂
When my sunjoe was acting up all it was . A plugged jet from the hard water we have here I took a jet out and it turned back on I thought something was wrong with the motor or plug. As the plug itself is another issues with these from what I found out
That was fun!
The top handle that holds the detergents has screws on them, pretty sure...
Wasteful. You could have just sent the pressure washer to me. I appreciate the disassembly, but why smash it after?
The video editing had me dying laughing 😂
Where’s the Chain saw Matt? Now seeing a Sagittal view of these precision machines would be a whole load of fun to bring these things of beauty to their demise. Ha ha. Great video...👍
Not to be anal, but that is not a turbine. It's a fan.
Intro was cool 😎
i feel like there was a missed opportunity for an office space reference. unless the music is copywriten then i guess i get the music change
Is the sun joe really a bad product? Compared to the ryobi?
I’d like to see AvE compare one of these and the Kranzle
I love the opening LOL
could you use that sunjoe pressure washer without the casing around it?
sure just have your wife hold it
I felt better after you "hulked" it.
What was your favorite cheap electric washer?
Third Eye Photography LLC Karcher 1700 Cube
Karcher K1700
Didn't hear about plans to test some Nilfisks anymore.
As a mobile guy, I can't help but see how much smaller they could make these things. Such small units surrounded by an enormous amount of empty space and plastic!
Agreed
@@ObsessedGarage I've honestly been hunting for a cheaper alternative to Kranzle with tolerable sacrifices to quality. AR630 with TSS is an alternative, but it's not much cheaper. SunJoe has their 9004/9007 prosumer units for a nice mid-range price, but they don't have total-stop which is a deal-breaker. Comet is really the only decent option I've found, and I like that they specify that you can gravity-feed it, but even without the spool it's really quite bulky. Maybe I'll just hack open a K1700 cube and create my own way of carrying the motor+pump around.
Mine won't dispense soap anymore. Can you help me?
GOOD VIDEO !!!!!!!!!
Sun JOE should just COPY the Kranzle DESIGN and DITCH the PLASTIC CRAP Housing that Falls DOWN
Water jet channel, to have the pressure washers cut in half.
Damn it feels good to be a gangster! Hey matt give me back my stapler!
We need more sledgeaxe!
ever make that wrap up video??
I didn’t know one item can be the exact same item but another brand and color until i noticed one of my cordless drills looked the same. I opened it up and it was identical. The Ridgid one was almost $200 and the non branded one was $35 on sale from $60 at this discount electronics place.
I should check google to see what other names the high end brands go by, like it’s the exact same so wtf
My Sunjoe SPX3200 had a plastic fitting that cracked, that housed what appears to be a spring backed electric valve/actuator (the black thing going into the plastic tan fitting). It cracked right where the spring sits. For what purpose I have no idea. Perhaps to reduce the pressure in the main jet. But it pisses out water. So I’m looking for a replacement fitting or set screw to go in its place. But I can’t find the thread size. Appears to be 1/2-14 NPT but can’t be sure… Any chance that fitting is still intact in yours? 😂
I don't use the Sunjoe anymore
@@ObsessedGarage No worries. I figured this thing actuated the lower pressure circuit. So I’m going to try plugging the fitting with a rubber stopper and if that doesn’t work, filling it with epoxy, and reinstalling it.
I've been following Matt for a couple of years now and he got me into detailing, mainly the way I wash and maintain cars. Now I want to get into polishing... any advice for a beginner here? I have old body panels that I can practise on.
I was following Matt for a month until the cops showed up at my door with a restraining order. 🤦♀️ 👮♀️ 🚨
Best video yet. The hydraulic press music edit got me cracking up
Next video: Matt ripping apart some 'stupid joes' with a barret .50 Cal 😬
Better find all those screws you dropped or else sunjoe is going to come haunt one of your tires 😂 haha
Now playing: Casey Nystat Deconstruction played by Matt Moreman.
Think you voided your warranty with the axe haha. Any idea what's wrong when the sunjoe spx4000 starts leaking heavily from the bottom. It's not delivering pressure anymore. Thanks in advance!
Is it possible to repair a stuck unloader in SPX4600?
Matt went “office space” on that sun joe...
That first motor is a motor that they use in vacuum cleaners.
Lol loved the editing with the axe on the part where you destroyed the stupid Joe 😂😂
I got the SunJoe SPX-3000 RM to clean my brake components under my car before changing them.
The SJ worked fine, but the housing for it is bulky and I think the soap dispensers are not needed for me.
I use a foam canon on the end of the spray gun.
Therefore I am thinking about taking my unit apart and reducing it to bare essential design with a metal support frame.
After watching your video camera and seeing that electric pressure washer pumps are readily available online, II now see that these electric pressure waters are simply a motor unit/pump with in/out points for the hoses and wires/switch to activate it.
In this respect, why not build one I build 1 to fit my format needs to place in the stationary fashion inside the back of my work Van, prominent permanently or with a handle so i can remove it and return it back into a small compact storage space when needed.
Your video helped me plan for my rebuild by letting me see inside the product and what to expect when taking it apart.
Another option would be just to sell my son Joe as he son Joe Aziz and then buy a separate motor and design it from scratch like that period but. But given the inexpensive price that I paid for my Unit, The jury is still out on which direction to go.
I like the fact that the sun Joe that I have and its components all are working together, if I venture off and buy separate components such as a pump and other connectors and what not, I may need to do research into those items which could complicate things and and place more time needed for these projects.
I just feel like spx3000 is trashy, I was afraid I’d damage my car paint but it couldn’t even take off the bird poop easily enough😂
I bet that was some of the best therapy you've ever had
i feel.....sad for those...young kids...how dont know,......what is fatality.....and flawless victory of......Scorpion.....and Goro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! nice reference on our past!!!!!
Built sunjoe tuff baby
Nothing educational here to actually repair a sunjoe. The best part is that he is honest about it!!
I like this video already and I’m only 5 seconds in!
Matt, Nice review and comparison but….
4 times the weight
4 times the HEFT!!!
and probably 10 times the price???
In your opinion what’s a good electric unit for a non professional, non auto detailer looking for a unit to do some cleaning of things like my gas grill, the back of my hot tub seats that are removable, patio furniture…. Ect.
Thank you!
I would get a Honda engine equipped gas for that.
@@ObsessedGarage thanks for the reply.
I ended up ordering the Karcher Cube 1700. It was on sale at Home Depot so I figured I would give it a try.
I’ll see how that plays out and then decide if it’s a keeper.
Thank you
Thought I was watching the Russian hydraulic press channel
When the countdown thing came up I was thinking "what's this about?" and I was not disappointed. #ripstupidjoe #fatality #finishhim
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Screws a pain? Get the better screw driver.( the sledge). Looks like half the weight of washer is screws.
That was a good look into to them 🖒 so which one are you giving away let me know i take a 2000 pressure one
So glad I got rid of my sunjoe and got a kranzle ! Was a piece of junk .
Sun Joe gives absolutely no help in repairing their models . Not even any diagrams to help disassemble and troubleshoot. Planned obsolescence. Very sad. Can you help? My SPX3200 lost its pressure…I was hoping it would be a simple part replacement.
They are designed as throw aways. They don't offer replacement parts.
I spot the Bigfoot MkIII in the background
do you have any experience/thoughts on the Gerni pressure washers? they seem to be the most available here.
That said im looking forward to getting my Spitwater going with the hot water!
No, I've never seen those.
