Westinghouse 3200 PSI 2.5 GPP Residential Pressure Washer Review Pros and Cons

Purchased from Home Depot for $270 shipped to my door. Also available at Lowes and Sams Club.

Pros:
- Works (at least for the first 4 times I've used it).
- Strong (use as short of a garden hose run as possible and ensure you don't have supply water flow issues)

Cons:
- Both the water inlet (LP) and water outlet (HP) fittings are gold anodized aluminum which is inferior to solid brass (will corrode faster)
- Orientation of LP water inlet connection is not well thought out. Puts unnecessary strain on the inlet fitting/flange and the wheel rubs the water hose.
- HP hose can flex and make contact with the hot muffler. The hose actuallys states keep away from high heat.
- Soap reservoir fill is back under the recoil start thus making filling a challenge. Either you spill some of your soap or you have to use a funnel.
- Unit vibrates heavily under pump operation, so much so it can move several feet on concrete. First time pressuring washing my car I found it had vibrated a few feet and came into contact with my car's bumper. If I had not caught it soon enough the vibration would have damaged the paint/surface of my bumper.
- Unit's front black rubber foot is "marking" as in it leaves a black mark/streak on the surface it rests upon. I'm starting to use the unit more on soft ground to eliminate this and the vibration movement issue.
