I bought this one. I use it everyday. Cleaning refrigeration and HVAC condensers. It out performed any of my expectations. It is plenty strong and well built. Easy too use.
Thank you! I was looking for a pressure washer to use in my car detailing business and found this, but I just thought I needed a quick review. This helped a lot, and now I know that foam cannon included won't work well at all!
its weakness is its strength. For washing cars it won't cause the rocks & dirt to scrape into the paint like a gas pressure washer does. and it's lightweight, small size make it such less hassle
Thank you for the video. Always best to let the soap set up for 5 min or so on what your cleaning like you demonstrated..Picking this same one up in morning..Have a 20ft Glasply boat I'll be cleaning the outside of it .. Thx Again!
Haha. You are correct! I especially do this when cleaning my car. But I just went through it quickly for the recording. Thanks for watching, I sincerely appreciate the view!
Bought this same exact one and after 5 car washes out started having issues with the pressure. Now it doesn't work properly and prefer to not even bother with it. Looking into a new one now.
You didn't show the product with the fan tip, which is the primary use of it. It seems like a small portable pressure washer for cars etc. I was wanting to get it to store it on my boat, because I already own a much larger gas powered one.
So I just bought one. Haven't used it yet. I see reviews on Amazon. People are speaking bad and saying it locked up and smokes. And stops working. Anybody have this issue ?
I appreciate the support! I saw that you also checked out my other channel, thanks for that!! This pressure washer is small, but it definitely has the perfect amount of power for every day usage!
Great review. One question though: does the pressure washer stay running the whole time similar to an air compressor or only when you pull the trigger nozzle?
Thanks for watching! And that's a great question! It shuts off most of the time when you're not using it! But it doesn't seem to build a reserve of pressure the same way that an air compressor does. So pretty much always on when you're actually spraying water.
I am thinking about getting this pressure washer from Lowes. Is it strong enough to remove weeds that are growing in the crack of my driveway? This will be the first pressure washer I buy. Thanks in advance.
I've heard good things about Ryobi products too! But I haven't used any first-hand. I'd have to imagine both options are good! But I do really like the Craftsman one from this review.
I bought both to compare. The build quality on the Craftsman is better in my opinion. It also has better cable management than the Ryobi since you can wrap the cord around the handle. Also, the 40 degree nozzle is better for car washing vs. the Ryobi's 15 degree nozzle in my opinion. Otherwise they function the same from what I can tell. I don't think you can go wrong with either one.
@@MrLozts iI Ended up buying the 1700 psi greenworks from lowes.on sale 79.99 from 100 ..up graded to a flexzilla hose and picked up a foam cannon …cant wait to use .thx for your replie.
I use it on my car all the time and I think it's awesome. The only downside is that it doesn't have wheels, to drag it around. But it's so small and light that moving it is super easy too.
I just got this pressure washer and after a few minutes it seems to have trouble holding pressure. Eventually it regains pressure and I don't seem to have that issue again the rest of the wash. I purge the pump/hose of air before turning on the pressure washer but the only thing I can think of is that air is still getting stuck in the pump. Have you experienced this? Also, my pressure washer turns on randomly for like a second without me pulling the trigger. Does yours do that too?
I have had this! But I figured it was more-so an issue with my hose. I have a fairly long hose, and I think sometimes the pressure washer wants to put out the water, but the house's water pressure might not be coming out fast enough. My pressure washer turns on randomly as well, but I believe this is only to keep the pressure ready. Were you referring to it actually shooting randomly? If so, mine does not do that.
It works really well, I love mine! And I definitely agree with you, getting a different foam cannon is the best option for this one haha. The foam cannon it came with stopped working almost immediately, but my other one has held up really well!
Hi! I used the 'Tool Daily' foam cannon from Amazon. It retails for $20 and works great! There's a link in the video's description, in case you're interested in getting one.
@@johngates450 Definitely! But this is mostly for demonstration purposes. In real life, I usually let the soap sit for a while. Whether it's pots in the kitchen, or the car outside, haha.

I definitely agree! Light, compact, easy to use, and fairly powerful for its size! No regrets at all 👏🏼
Bought one too about a month ago. Took a shit already randomly stopped working ,pump wont come on
@@geokiller789 mine is still working. I figured for the price it won’t last long. Still going though.

Precisely! I think it's perfect for washing cars. That's what I primarily utilize it for
Keep the channel going, it looks like you have a good handle on doing reviews
Thank you very much, I appreciate the kind words! I try to include the things that I would like to see if I were to look one of these tools up :)
Your suppose to mix soap with water or a buy a premix soap that says foam
you're supposed to put soap AND water in the foam cannon bottle. works much better
I like this guy nice and simple

That's unfortunate! So sorry to hear that
*On sale at Lowes with a warranty today for $99*
Great explanation
Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks
This channel is going up for sure. You got the video quality down 👌🏻. Keep going, you have the potential to be a big channel.
I really appreciate that, thanks a ton! I'm gonna get back to making videos here soon. Thanks for watching!
@@ReviewsMadeSimple No problem, and good luck to you 👍 💯.
You didn't show the product with the fan tip, which is the primary use of it. It seems like a small portable pressure washer for cars etc. I was wanting to get it to store it on my boat, because I already own a much larger gas powered one.
Think I’m gonna pick it up
Solid review, thanks! Turtlewax car wash solution isn't going to foam correctly. Not the tool's fault on that one.
Oh for sure! There are specific foaming solutions, which I'm super excited to use in the future!
Thanks a ton for watching, I appreciate it!
That turtle wax soap does infact foam up well when used in a proper foam cannon. Been using it for a while and it works great
I’m curious, does it make a difference whether a solution foams up or not?
Thank you
@@roblescurbappealconcrete yeah. The foam is more aspirated, which does lift dirt better as it sits.
So I just bought one. Haven't used it yet. I see reviews on Amazon. People are speaking bad and saying it locked up and smokes. And stops working. Anybody have this issue ?
Mine is still running strong! I highly recommend it.
Awesome review
Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate that!
I'm sub'n bro
I bought this pressure washer added all quick connects and a kinkless hose and short gun 👍👍👍👍
I appreciate the support! I saw that you also checked out my other channel, thanks for that!!

Darn I just bought the extra foam canon and it doesn’t seem to fit the gun anymore. They extended the quick connect
I have the same pressure washer, however water leaks from the 20 foot water hose and the wand. Any thoughts of why it does this?
Loved mine, but after owning it for 2 months it won’t turn on anymore !!!
Oh no! It should be warrantied though! Have you tried contacting Craftsman?
@reviews made simple
The cannon in the description comes with tips for the wand, will they work with the craftsman wand?
I am thinking about getting this pressure washer from Lowes. Is it strong enough to remove weeds that are growing in the crack of my driveway? This will be the first pressure washer I buy. Thanks in advance.
Great question, and yes! It is strong enough to get rid of the weeds between the cracks! I just did this a couple of weeks ago.
would this connect to a blackline foam cannon 1/4 quick connect?
Is the unit waterproof? I mean is it okay if it gets sprayed with water?
Mine hasn't had any issues and it gets wet all the time!
Does the pump run continuously or just when you pull the trigger?
It'll generally shut off when you're not pulling the trigger.
i am trying to decide between this and the ryobi.
I've heard good things about Ryobi products too! But I haven't used any first-hand. I'd have to imagine both options are good! But I do really like the Craftsman one from this review.

Does that foam cannon just screw on craftsman ?
The upgraded one? That one clicks in 🙂
@@ReviewsMadeSimple Can you share the name of upgraded foam cannon and where you purchased?
Thanks for the content.
Keep up the good work.
בס״ד
I appreciate it. Thanks!
@@ReviewsMadeSimple Subscribed.
Mine stoped working after a few months, I press the test button on the plug and just runs for a second
That's a bummer, I'm so sorry to hear that! I haven't really had any issues with mine. Have you tried reaching out to them regarding the warranty?
Love this one for using to wash the car and pool filters. Foam cannon is a joke.
It works really well, I love mine!
And I definitely agree with you, getting a different foam cannon is the best option for this one haha. The foam cannon it came with stopped working almost immediately, but my other one has held up really well!
What foam canon did you use?
Hi! I used the 'Tool Daily' foam cannon from Amazon. It retails for $20 and works great! There's a link in the video's description, in case you're interested in getting one.
Mine ain’t right I guess cause I tried mine today and it ducked so I went looking for videos and found this one lol
So sorry to hear that! Mine has worked well so far, so I definitely think yours might be defective.
@ReviewsMadeSimple I think it is too. Back to Lowes it goes!!
Hi everyone! What was most helpful about this video? What else would you like to have seen?
You demonstrated using the foam gun w soap and let it set up prior to pressure washing..Been in the cleaning ind all my life ..
@@johngates450 Definitely! But this is mostly for demonstration purposes. In real life, I usually let the soap sit for a while. Whether it's pots in the kitchen, or the car outside, haha.
Don’t buy this. Didn’t have mine a whole year and it messed up. Look elsewhere
Mine's approaching 3 years now. I'm sorry to hear about yours not working 😕. Did you get it replaced under warranty?
