What is the Outdoor Board opinion of electric pressure washers? I have a 50 foot driveway and my deck that needs to be cleaned after the pollen explosion. I see one made by Pressure Joe that is 2000 PSI at Lowes. Anyone have any experiences with Electric or should I just go gas?
TIA

I have one setup at my camp to clean my boat and it does a great job of that. think it would work fine for small driveway and misc cleaning around house.

I would spend a little bit more and get a gas one like the Ryobi at Home Depot with the Honda motor.

Love my electric pressure washer. Great for cleaning the house, driveway and the cars. No need for a gas one. Just something else to maintain

If it will do a legit 2000 psi, that would work. But most of the electric ones don't get a high enough psi to work well especially from long distance and with a wide enough spray to not take 3-4x as long as gas.
I'd get a gas one honestly, and just use that ethanol free and run it out often and leave it empty.
I used to use my dads electric one to clean the boat and wash cars with, it was great for that. But it wasn't strong enough to clean the top siding on a one story house.

I have an ancient electric one that is still going strong. It has enough power to clean my deck off every year or every other year, take care of the driveway and sidewalk, and clean the brick on the house. It doesn't get used continuously, but the few times a year I drag it out, it works.

I have the Ryobi Electric presssure washer. My driveway is probably only 25' and it does fine cleaning my driveway. Also use it on my house and have no complaints there either. I got the 2000psi model.
My buddy has a 1600psi ryobi that he uses for washing his houseboat. Went help wash the houseboat and went buy my own electric pressure washer when I got home. I've had mine for 2 years.

I have a green works one I got like 5 years ago. It has worked flawlessly. It's so much easier than gas

As stated above, just make sure it's got enough psi. Mine is a little low so it does take longer

50ft driveway and deck? frick an electric for that. That'll take all day minimum

Karcher has a bunch of quick connect attachments. Very easy to use. My driveway is probably close to 1500sq ft, took me about 1.5hr to complete with the rotating attachment.
