Simpson and DeWalt are built in the US by the same Italian company FNA.
The Honda engine on that $950 model from Tractor Supply will probably outlast us all.
However that Chinese AAA pump is suspect.
Higher-grade commercial pumps (like CAT, General Pump, AR, Giant, etc.) are designed in the US or Europe.
A Simpson or DeWalt machine with a CAT pump typically costs around $1,400.
Pressure washers with those higher-grade pumps will last forever if properly maintained - and if always operated with adequate water flow at the inlet.

And an inlet filter. I have a Subaru-powered Mi-t-M industrial pressure washer with an AR pump. Great unit but if trash gets in the pump it's $300 in parts to rebuild fully.

In the entire history of mankind, no one has ever uttered the words I wish this pressurewasher was less powerful.

I have the same one that TJack has. I caught it on sale at TSC for $250. Ive had it a year and it's been great. The hose that it comes with sucks. Replaced after 2 uses. I pressure was the concrete around pool and patio and do the brick on my house as well. Word of caution if cleaning vehicles don't use the "whirly bird" tip. It will peak paint. Lol
