Apparently I didn't set 'er to the height it was at before I thatched the lawn, lol. Oh well... I'll swap the Orbit's out for Rainbird's, so it'll be a win anyway.

 

I've debated getting one if these electric units for small/light jobs for which dragging out my gas-powered 3000 PSI unit seems like too much hassle. Based on how much I *don't* use this one, though, I'm not sure it would be wise.

Any of you have both and find that having two was a good choice?

 

You guys prob don't remember, but wee talked about that very same pressure washer 3 or 4 years back. I really like that little thing. Quiet , you'll forget it's on if doing multiple tasks. So far I've added the 50' hose and foam cannon.

It's a good one white.

 

Rainbird set up, seems like you go through a few or three every year no matter what.

 

The only time I get the big gasser out is to strip a deck or clean concrete. Big gassers have their place though. Cleaned a stone wall last year, brought the color out of the stones. Surprised at the difference that made.

Purchased that electric Ryobi shortly after the travel trailer, that was the main purpose. But I've washed houses with it as well. Load the canon up with chemical, the little thing has more enough power. Haven't had one problem with it. Definitely worth the 100 bucks I paid for it.

 

Ohhhh... yeah, I remember that Brew. Didn't realize it's the same model though. I went with this for a couple of reasons. 1 - I won't use it very often. 2 - It's small, and I can put it up on a shelf, or in my cabinet. 3 - no gas/oil to maintain on something that I will hardly use.

I was dragging my old Ryobi from the back yard every time I wanted to use it, and for some reason that just seemed like to big of a PITA every time, lol. I saved the wand and nozzles from my old Ryobi. I gotta be better about storing this one. I think my Wife or kids left water in it, and it rotted out inside. Any tips on that, Brew?

And yeah.... I replace at least two per year on the sprinklers. The past two years I've replaced the manifolds (one in front, and back) so I hope I'm done there for a while.

 

Crap.....wish I would of known how messed up this young person was. Nothing I can do now....sensed it too late, -

Mothers day Sun. Attempted the Amazon gift thing for Sat. Hope it works out.

 

Got my 30 achievement plaque this morning from operating engineers. I just have to stay healthy long enough to enjoy what comes next....the hammock and sunrise martinies.
