We've been anxiously and patiently waiting for you to receive and review this one!
Typical clear, well thought out honest review. Appreciate your diligence and clear demonstrations. Great stuff.
Great job, this is exactly what I was looking for!
Active is such a cool company for listening to the folks who use their products
you are the best youtuber i have found in a long time. perfectly descriptive. good camera angles. just all around great product. thanks for all the effort put into this video
Wow, thanks!
Ok this the one I ready need! Thanks Josh.
Thanks for the info on this unit, with just a few tweaks this becomes a very workable unit.
Thanks Josh...as always you are the best source for pressure washer and accessory reviews. I've had a SunJoe 4000 pressure washer for the past several years for personal car washing but it's time to upgrade and I'll be going with the Active 2.0 based on your reccomendation. Thanks again for your channel!
Good job Josh. My 2.0 just arrived Wednesday, looking forward to setting it up Sunday.
Good to know, just ordered mine directly from their website, how long does it take (more or less) for them to ship the unit? I'm in Florida btw.
I would love to have this bad boy!! Thanks for the great video man!! God bless!!
Like all your product reviews. Love to have one of these Active 2.0 pressure washer.
Thank you! Definitely going to be my next pressure washer once my ryobi breaks! Going to definitely use my own hose, gun and foam cannon
I have the older activ, bought it last year so not ready to buy a new one, but this one looks great. You are right about the power button I can see why it would fail but otherwise a great pressure washer.
Awesome and azaming I'll be getting one soon perfect for me for detailing thank you for the info josh awesome videos
Great video as always. I'm still waiting for a video on the deionized tank setup you have in the corner of the garage. Keep the knowledge flowing.
thank you josh for another exceptional video 🤙🏽
👍👍👍 thanks
Appreciate the review
I need this badly, cheers!
Preordered this can't wait for it to come in.
Josh thank you for doing the giveaway even If I lose. It’s amazing your doing that for everyone to enjoy somthing even if it’s small.
Just ordered one should be here Monday or Tuesday can't wait 😊
Excellent video glad you got your hands on this. Compared to the chemical guys one it’s night and day
I need this unit last piece I need to take my personal detailing to the next level! Good luck everyone! Commenting here for good measure
Josh does the best testing on pressure washers!!
I already tried to buy this unit for black friday and I lost the discount because my bank blocked my card, I hope to be the winner of this pressure washer. thanks for doing this Josh 😎👍
Great video as always! Looking to get a new pressure washer
Thanks so much for this video
Dope beat at the end
Great washer/video!
Thanks Josh
Looks like a great unit .
Thanks for that.
This looks good!
Great video
The fastest “best-est”review and the Most words per minute of any review! The numbers don’t lie! Great job Josh.
Have you heard Luke from Wilson auto detailing? Man he can spit out a LOT of words per minute and does not get his words twisted up! I can barely keep up with him LOL 😆
He's also highly annoying and inauthentic.
@@annagraham6204 please elaborate is his course a waste time
@@dieselbeastgamerkushgod7784 Definitely. See Alex V’s comment above. He took the class. Luke’s an actwhore. A shill. A persona selling dreams to the naive.
This is one of the most compact and easy to use pressure washers on the market
Looks like a nice little unit
Very good review.
I’m happy with my Ryobi but could certainly up my game with this.
I really need something like this!
extremely jealous you got yours. Still waiting for mine and I ordered as soon as they announced the preorder
Wow! Why are they taking so long to ship out these machines....I just ordered mine like 3 days ago directly from their official Active website so it looks like I'll be waiting a long time before I receive the unit which it sucks.
Love it
Great review Josh ..I am waiting for my sunjoe to give out so I can buy this ..I got the Wagner and Bissell spot clean pro from ur recommendation and they r working like a champ
Awesome!
Great prize. Thanks Josh. I need a new pressure washer.
Once again another great video. I honestly think I'm going to order this one. I am going to order the one without the accessories. I don't mind paying more money for better quality.
Now I do have my gas power washer that does a phenomenal job. With winter coming and my garage is only heated when I'm out there so the gas one is a pain in the keister. I've been looking for an electric one. That way I can drain my hoses and bring the unit into the warm house. I have a setup in our utility room. Got big shelving units and that's where I keep all my batteries and all the chargers for my tools. And this will fit nicely right there next to all of it.
I most definitely gave you a big old thumbs up and of course I'm already I subscriber. Looking forward to your next video.
I definitely want this unit of a pressure washer
Some great reviews
Thank you sir!!! That was a wonderful review, as all your reviews are. So through. One question, do you run that gravity fed? Or a pump? Thank you for all you do for us out here!!
Need this!
Josh ~ have to say this power bar none is the BEST power washer in a small package that packs a punch. I have a honda gas powerwasher, but the Active 2.0 is a game changer. The size, the power, compressor only turning on for demand, etc. Very impressive! Thanks for your vids, they are def making a difference for us consumers. keep it going brother!!!!
I NEEEEED THIS!
Yup...getting one
Let's GO! 🏆
Wow that looks pretty compact and it save water.
Looks like best pressure washer on the market
Looks to pack a good punch for such a small pressure washer. Looks great
Looks like a good pressure washer would like to try one out...
Dang, great performance for the price! My AR 630 TSS hits 1100 PSI @ 2.0 GPM with a 4.0 orifice.
How do you like it? I was debating between the two! Seems people forgot about the AR blue line
Like the size and look of it.
best for sure
Best power washer.
Just watched your video on the Chemical Guys Power Washer. This Active 2.0 by far is a superior product to what the " Guys" have. Up to know, this is leading the race to my choice
I have a craftsman pressure washer. I would love to have that for Christmas. That’s the perfect pressure washer for me.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 phone
Thanks for the giveaways 👍
Thanks for sharing !! Based on your video and your review on this pressure washer I made my decision to buy it. Was looking for a small portable pressure washer and this impressed me so much that I ordered yesterday (2/18/24) from Amazon. To be honest, I had not heard of this brand, nevertheless I had seen it advertised on Amazon website, but never caught my attention. Just waiting on its arrival. Followed your advice and purchased different accessories for a better experience.
Ready to Win
Great product 🔥
Had i known about this unit i may have waited but my Karsher 1700 Cube works rather good for now. Thanks for this review
Also love how you point us to much more affordable products then other some other channels
Karcher 1700 is a nice machine compared to other big box stores it can definitely hold its own
But for me I opted for greenworks 2300 pro just because of multi use around the house
@@gabelitell8632 Yes it is my first pressure washer i may upgrade later. The greenworks you have i heard is rather good
How’s the 2300 holding up? I’m looking to get a pressure washer for around my house. Siding, patio, concrete garden wall, car etc. Lowes has the 2301 on sale for $249. Still recommend it? I wonder if the active would be good as well.
Still loving the 2300?
I heard Greenworks customer service isn’t good
I bought the Active VE52 last October after you reviewed it and I love it… no issues with mine (so far). I bought a 50 foot Flexzilla hose to accompany it because the Uberflex was not available at that time.
Awesome! Yes they made some upgrades to the ve52 as well so it’s great to hear they are working and you haven’t had any issues
Awesome video.
I’m just a dumb homeowner!
Would the active be a pressure be good for around the house? Siding, patio, car etc?
Or should I get a Greenworks like the 2300 or karcher 1700? For example. Thank you!
@@adamg.1845active for longevity but the Home Depot stuff for less money and if something goes wrong just do warranty cliam
What soap did you use ? What dilution ratio? Love the soap you got! Great video! Regards,
Tony
Nice overall review but will consider it once my existing unit dies.
I'd love to have this, Paul
Nice 👍🏻
Great review!
Yes, when you double the length of the hose, you will double your friction loss. That accounts for the pressure decrease. If you put your pressure guage at the beginning of the hose, you will see the same pressure regardless of the hose length. However, that would not accurately tell you the performance at the nozzle. It would only demonstrate the loss.
I know someone who just got this machine as well and he loves it. Nothing really negative to say about it.
Thanks for the review.
And again just love your video, I just wanted to ask, what pressure washer would you recommend if I would want a cordless and getting the water from a 5 gallon bucket
Nice review. Im guessing backorder for couple more months.
Great performance compares to other brand
Just from watching your videos I was able to accumulate that stubby nose sprayer that you recommended as well as the mjjc foam Cannon which I absolutely love, and also now looking to add that uberflex hose to make my pressure washer system but it should be. I'm really loving the Ryobi 1800 PSI, I wish it produced as much GPM as this unit does but I bought it because it was only about $100 at home Depot.
Great review. Do you ever notice any back pressure build up whenever you release the trigger on your spray gun? I'm noticing it happen on my Sun Joe and think it might be time for an upgrade.
I got this unit based on your recommendation and I love it. I’m looking to add a quick connect to my garden hose but not sure which one I need. Can you or anyone on here assist? Thanks for the help and keep up the great channel.
Josh, I really enjoy your reviews and actually based my purchase of this unit largely on your review. I do need to share what happened to me after the purchase. Others may gains some value and at least be more informed.
Purchased this pressure washer on 10/20/23. Used it once... Worked great. No serious issues. Good pressure, did not overheat, TSS pressure system worked reasonably well but need to make sure no small leaks in hose and connections or the unit will cycle a lot.
After use, was putting the unit away in my car and I caught the TSS switch on the edge of the car and it cracked the switch housing. This is the most delicate part of the pressure washer and it is not protected with any guard. If this unit were to roll over or be hit by something else or your hose got hung up and tangled, I can see this part getting damaged.
I am not blaming "Active" for the damage whatsover (Other than that switch is not very well guarded and is plastic) However, I reached to them to purchase a replacement part. I emailed them and called and spoke to a support rep. I received this response a short time ago:
I checked with the tech team and manager, and unfortunately, we don't have this part available, and we're not sure if it will be available in the near future. Let me know if you'd like to buy another 2.0; I can offer a 15% discount. Best Regards, Customer Support, ACTIVE PRODUCTS
I was a bit surprised for such an expensive product that they have no parts or support. Obviously, this is a very, very big disappointment to me. As you can see from the photo I have included, I just purchased this unit three weeks ago, paid $369 and the unit is basically junk now because Active cannot replace what is likely a $20 piece of plastic.
My goal with this review is not to air out my issue with the merchant, my goal is to put anyone on notice that if they are purchasing this product, Active does not seem willing to replace any parts but will be quick to offer you to buy another unit. I can understand this type of response with a $79 Harbor Freight electric pressure washer, but this purchase for me was significantly researched and I looked at it as an investment into a really high quality machine. If this unit does break, and it is not covered by warranty, you will be at risk losing your $350 + investment. Too bad.
At this price point, basic parts should be available. As you can see from the photo, it is very specialized and as I said the weakest link of the unit. From what I have seen and brainstormed, I have no way to workaround it....
HAVING SAID ALL OF THIS, I am not blaming you or your review. I appreciate all your information and detailed review. I just thought this would be reasonable to add for anyone that may be considering this unit. In addition, I am open to any ideas you may have about how I might gain some value out of something that is essentially a boat anchor now..... :(
Oh man that is terrible. I’m so sorry to hear that and thanks for posting that to bring awareness. Yeah that piece breaking is unfortunate but I would hope that there was solution for it. When you get into the serviceable units like the kranzle, or ar630 then they have repairable components but those units are much more expensive. Send me a picture of where yours broke to dtlrsupply@gmail.com and I’ll see if I can think of a solution for you
Hope you found a solution to your problem. From what I can see this TSS switch appears to be a pressure switch. I figure it turns the electric motor on when the trigger is pulled (pressure drops) and motor off when trigger is released (pressure increases). Looks like you would be able to find an aftermarket switch with the same psi rating and connections.
@@smittyss4978 why should he have to source a component. He didn’t design the thing. If the company doesn’t do a good job designing the washer and doesn’t have any parts I guess they will just go out of business. They aren’t the only ones on Earth that makes a PW. I MEAN who would buy a PW that the companies solution to a part failure is to buy a whole unit. 😅
@@casey10614 I was just offering a solution to the problem so he didn't have a $350 paper weight. I MEAN who would buy a (fill in the blank) that the company's solution to a part failure is to buy a whole unit? The answer: Just about everyone because we live in a throw away world. TVs being the first thing that comes to mind because I have 3 LED TVs in my house now that people were going to throw out and all they needed was one of the LEDs replaced in the backlighting.
@@smittyss4978you did a good job I was commenting on the manufacturer response. You do great work with the videos.
Got my 2.0 last week and used it last weekend. So far so good. Wish they were available sooner with the shorter summer season we have here.
Good to know, just ordered mine directly from their website, how long does it take (more or less) for them to ship the unit? I'm in Florida btw.
@@jjabblePlayStation Not sure to be honest, as I did the preorder so I waited a while. Heard that it has been pretty good for some customers, hopefully that'll be the same for you.
@@clay3544 Alright, thanks for the quick reply, I appreciate it.
@@clay3544 One more thing if you don't mind...Are you using a foam cannon with a 1.25 orifice? I'm asking because I saw a vid on YT where they use a 1.1mm orifice with their foam cannon and the amps went up to 19. I only have 15amps outlets like most houses so I'm kinda worry if even the 1.25 might trip the circuit.
@@jjabblePlayStation I have an MTM foam cannon, using 1.25 orifice, connected to a 50' hose. 15 amp service (I believe) and no issues. I tested using Meg Gold class soap and considering it's not really meant for a foam gun it worked well. I've got some P&S Pearl and CG Mr. Pink to try out. I'm sure you'll be fine with the 1.25
Love the reviews keep it up!!!
Thanks for this video! It's helped me with my purchase decision.
As a side note, I ordered and received the wand swivel using your link. It seems very tight which some other buyers also found, according to their reviews. Does it loosen up when used over time?
Hey Josh, Great Vid! Just got this 2.0.
What cart are you using in this video? Looks handy.
I have been waiting for this Josh. Thank you. I'm curious on the longevity of this. I heard VE52 had some issue with that.
Hello there, the Active VE52 did run at 100 hrs which is the average lifecycle for electric pressure washers. The main idea behind the Active 2.0 is to focus on longevity. The Active 2.0 runs at twice the lifecycle of the VE52 (200 hrs).
@@ACTIVEPRODUCTS I was sorry to see people who complained by email, who said you wouldn’t respond. Please do better
After watching the reviews of the new Active 2.3 I have a deeper appreciation for the 2.0. I think it is a great value compared to the latest heavyweights that are significantly more expensive. With this unit being a good ten decibels quieter, and at its price point, it is the unit to have.
What is the best way to get a light layer of dust and pollen off of a ceramic coated truck without having to wash it or do you need to wash it.? I'm going to get that Uber hose it looks a lot better for my Ryobi 1800 PSI electric pressure washer. Thank you for all your videos, you are a true professional and I really get a great education every time I watch anything new from your channel.
fireeee! i need oneee my stupid chemical guys PW jus broke on me :(
Can you do a video on best way to empty water when done using the Active 2.0
Thank you for quoting the whole set up someone should use threw out the video / active 2.0 pressure washer - uberflex hose, had same 22mm connect - and mjjc foam cannon pro - and the mckaillens swivel pressure washing gun
Great review Josh! I love mine. I'm using a 5.0 nozzle, the Uber Flex hose, and the stubby handle and its amazing! I thing OG tested it with the 5.0 and got around 800psi, which is perfect for me! Keep the content coming!!
Did the uber flex change the way the pump pressurizes/runs compared to stock?
@@esobofh I did not try the stock hose, so I cannot answer your question. I will give it a try the next time I use the pressure washer and provide an update.
@@esobofh won’t affect it enough to matter
800 psi? Why so low?
@@ObsessedGarbageDotCon the bigger the nozzle = more flow = less pressure. I've washed a bunch of cars since I got it and its amazing.
Great Review!!! What diameter garden hose inlet should we use???? 5/8 OR 2/4???? OR doesn’t it matter??? Thank You
hi Josh how are you? its nice to see you on youtube
i would like to know that uberflex hose have steel braided / no?
its hard to find that kind a hose here to upgrade, LOL
This pressure washer looks amazing. Is the 2.0 worth the extra money? The 1.0 seems like a good unit.
I’m still on the OG Josh setup… Ryobi, Uberflex and MJJC. The Ryobi works but it’s annoyingly loud. I’m upgrading this year. The Active 2.3 coming out at $650 and the AR at $800 are a tough pill to swallow… but the 2.0 can be had for $300 right now. Might have to snag one. My fear with the 2.0 is the high pitched noise. I want something quieter. Wondering how it compares to the Ryobi. Great stuff Josh!
Is a pump included? Amazing! :-)
McKillans makes a kit too that includes their wand, wand extension, quick-connect parts, and foam cannon for a great price. Unfortunately no hose upgrade though.
