    So I've only used this pressure washer one time. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxfQauTxLT0JLSvqkq10rD79TU4k0Vz8zP The one time I used it, it worked great. I recently had new siding installed but kept the old gutters and small areas surrounding my house that weren't replaced so they looked horrible and dirty because of the new siding. I needed to get it cleaned asap. When I used the pressure washer, man it just melted all the dirt and grime that was on those areas of my house. I used that krud kutter soap and it was over after that. Easy to assemble, feels durable, very simple to use. Also, I purchased a used one to save money and there was absolutely nothing wrong with it. I want to get more use out of it so I think I'll be washing the cars and update this comment as time goes on.

    The combo of psi and gpm is king not just gpm. From experience anything from 1200-1900psi and 1.2-2.0gpm is far more than enough for washing vehicles and detailing. Also karcher units are most definitely serviceable. Not sure if you guys meant something else but parts for karcher are fairly easy to obtain. Bang for your buck yes the ar630 is a beast.

      That is what we said in the video; you want to get around that 900 - 1200 PSI range, then from there, the more flow, the better. All pressure washers have at least 1000 PSI, so you can mostly ignore that number and focus on flow. If you have a seriously dirty car or truck, sure, you could use some more PSI, but I would argue that your chemicals should be doing most, if not all, of the work. Secondly, 90% of Karchers have sealed pumps. Excluding the ones in the EU, which we do not have access to, is the US. So no, they are not repairable.

    Great video! I’m interested in your thoughts on the best electric pressure washer that would be ideal for a six nozzle water broom?
    I agree flow would be a concern.
    Our condo building washes the parking garage yearly and our gas pressure unit will be sold. We want to switch to electric to avoid gas fumes and be able to wash with garage door closed. Any ideas?

    I'm just trying to figure out why a normal person who buy a pressure washer that cost that much just to wash a car 🤣 bro I'm not paying no more than $400 for the Pressure and all the attachments change out the Orifice and your good to go. You need to change the title to "Professional" because no normal person is spending 4k on a dumb pressure washer 🤣🤣🤣

    The AR630 has better pressure, flow, power consumption, better designed motor, and is cheaper than those Kranzles. There’s no real objective reason to buy the Kranzles over the AR.

    • @ObsessedGarage
      @ObsessedGarage ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I can have any pressure washer on the planet for free. I sell both of Kranzle and AR. ARs have better margin for me, so I make more money on them. I have a great relationship with both companies. I had an AR at my last house. I have Kranzle at my current house. There are specs on paper , and there is the real world. The Kranzle is a better overall package. Matt

      @@ObsessedGarage This is a bit of a copy and paste response. More importantly, it doesn’t give any justification for a Kranzle purchase. A lot of people can have any car and decide to buy a 911. That doesn’t make it the best car in the world. You clearly prefer the Kranzle and that’s entirely fair, but it is still a just a preference.

    The AR630 actually OUTperforms the 2 smaller Kranzle units -- it's not just comparable. And in my opinion, that massive, nearly $4K Kranzle doesn't fit the bill for the "looks of the unit" criterion. That thing is not only ugly, it looks ridiculous sitting on a wall shelf.

    • @ObsessedGarageShorts
      @ObsessedGarageShorts  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Although the AR preformed the Kranzle on the numbers, I'm telling you, the Kranzle is better to use. Its simular to how a drag racing car has 1000+ HP, but a 911 will be 10x more fun to drive. Lastly, the large unit is made for industrial applications such as poultry factories. It's not made for looks.

    For future reference you should probably understand that any fluid going through a nozzle will experience a MAJOR pressure drop. So your not actually seeing high pressure out the hose, you are seeing a high velocity of water. Thats why flow is king

      No definitely not. You don’t even need three phase for the KWS700TS like he claims.. a dedicated 240v 20amp is enough.
