Pressure Washer, Electric Power Washer, Heavy-Duty 2500 Max PSI (2030 PSI PWMA Rated)-Portable Cleaning & Washing Machine System, Patios & Sidewalks, SPX3000

I RENT A GAS PRESSURE WASHER EVERY YEAR FOR VARIOUS PROJECTS AROUND THE HOUSE, I HAVE USED GAS PRESSURE WASHERS TO REMOVE CHIPPING PAINT FROM THE CINDER BLOCK FOUNDATION IN PREPARATION TO REPAINT, BUT MOSTLY I USE IT YEARLY TO CLEAN MY CONCRETE WALKWAY, DRIVEWAY AND PATIO. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PLEASED WITH THE RESULTS. DUE TO A RECENT INJURY I AM UNABLE TO LIFT HEAVY ITEMS, SO THIS YEAR I DECIDED TO LOOK AT ELECTRIC PRESSURE WASHERS. I DID MY HOMEWORK, I WENT TO HOME DEPOT AND LOWE'S AND I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND WATCHED YOU TUBE VIDEOS AND READ ALL THE REVIEWS. THE SUN JOE SPX3000 ALWAYS STOOD OUT FROM THE REST IN ALL THE REVIEWS I READ. I ORDERED ONE FROM AMAZON.COM. IT WAS TEMPORARILY OUT OF STOCK, BUT HAD THE BEST PRICE I COULD FIND INCLUDING FREE SHIPPING. ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER I HAD MY NEW PRESSURE WASHER. IT TOOK ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES TO READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AND INSTALL EIGHT ITEMS: 1. THE HANDLE, (FOUR SCREWS) 2. THE TRIGGER GUN HOLDER, (JUST POPS ON) 3. THE SPRAY WAND PROTECTOR- (ONE SCREW AND A POP IN TAB)-THIS WAS A LITTLE TRICKY, THE TAB DID NOT WANT TO LOCK IN, BUT IT FINALLY DID) 4. THE DETERGENT BOTTLES- (THEY WERE ALREADY IN PLACE BUT NEEDED TO BE "SEATED) 5. THE HOSE HOLDER (SLIDES IN PLACE AND IS HELD ON WITH ONE SCREW) 6. CONNECT ONE END OF THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE TO TO THE REAR OF THE UNIT AND THE OTHER END TO THE TRIGGER GUN. (ONE END IS MADE FOR THE TRIGGER GUN AND THE OTHER END IS MADE TO CONNECT TO THE UNIT.) 7. ATTACH THE WAND TO THE TRIGGER GUN. 8. ATTACH THE PLASTIC WATER INLET COUPLER TO THE FRONT OF THE UNIT-(THIS IS WHAT MOST PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT WHERE LEAKING OCCURS. MINE LEAKED TOO. I JUST REMOVED IT AND CAREFULLY RE INSTALLED IT MAKING SURE IT WAS NOT CROSS THREADED AND THERE WAS NO MORE LEAKING. IT DID START LEAKING AGAIN AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR OF USAGE. I HAD TO REMOVE THE COUPLER AGAIN, THIS TIME I REMOVED THE SMALL BLACK WASHER OR O-RING AND TURNED IT OVER. I MADE SURE IT WAS SEATED CORRECTLY, THEN RE INSTALLED THE COUPLER. IT HAS NOT LEAKED AGAIN. THE POWER PLUG ON THIS UNIT IS HUGE. IT HAS A BUILT IN GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER BUILT IN FOR SAFETY. THE PLUG IS SO LARGE IT WOULD NOT FIT INTO MY OUTDOOR OUTLETS SO I HAD TO USE A SHORT 5 FOOT EXTENSION CORD DESIGNED FOR PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONERS. THIS WORKED FINE. I TESTED THE GROUND FAULT AND IT TOO WORKED FINE. YOU MUST NOT USE A COMMON HOUSE HOLD EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS UNIT. YOU MUST USE THE PROPER GAUGE EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS UNIT IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BURN UP THE MOTOR. CONSULT THE OWNERS MANUAL FOR THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. SO NOW I AM READY TO USE MY PRESSURE WASHER: 1. I DOUBLE CHECKED TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WAS PUT TOGETHER SECURELY 2. I HOOKED UP MY GARDEN HOSE TO THE FRONT OF THE UNIT (MAKE SURE THE HOSE IS NOT KINKED). I TURNED ON THE WATER FAUCET ALL THE WAY. (THAT IS WHEN I SAW THE FIRST WATER LEAK AND HAD TO RE INSTALL THE COUPLER) . 3. I PLUGGED IN THE POWER CORD (USING MY SHORT A/C EXTENSION CORD) AND MADE SURE IT WOULD NOT GET WET BY HANGING IT UP ON A PLANT HOOK ON MY PATIO. 4. I SNAPPED IN ONE OF THE QUICK CONNECT NOZZLES. (I DID NOT KNOW WHICH ONE WOULD WORK BEST FOR MY APPLICATION) 5. I RELEASED THE SAFETY LOCK ON THE TRIGGER. 6.. I SQUEEZED THE TRIGGER WHICH ALLOWS WATER TO FLOW THROUGH THE SYSTEM. 7. I TURNED ON THE MACHINE. IT WORKS!! I PLAYED AROUND WITH THE DIFFERENT NOZZLES. I WANTED TO CLEAN MY CONCRETE WALK WAY. THE GREEN NOZZLE 25 DEGREES WORKED BEST. I WAS AMAZED AT THE POWER OF THIS LITTLE MACHINE. IT CLEANED MY CONCRETE AS GOOD AS A GAS PRESSURE WASHER. I USED THIS FOR ABOUT FIVE HOURS STRAIGHT. I WAS VERY PLEASED. THE UNIT IS QUIET COMPARED TO A GAS UNIT, BUT I STILL WORE EAR PLUGS TO PROTECT MY HEARING. WHEN YOU RELEASE THE TRIGGER, THE MACHINE SIMPLY CUTS OFF AND THERE IS NO NOISE. OCCASIONALLY THE UNIT WOULD PULSE WITH VERY LOW PRESSURE ON RESTARTING, BUT RELEASING THE TRIGGER AND PRESSING IT AGAIN IMMEDIATELY CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. I DID NOT USE THE DETERGENT BOTTLES, SO NO COMMENT. AS FAR AS LONGEVITY, THAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN. I USUALLY USE A PRESSURE WASHER ONCE A YEAR SO I HOPE TO HAVE MINE FOR A QUITE SOME TIME. SUN JOE WARRANTS THE MACHINE FOR TWO YEARS. BOTTOM LINE. THIS IS A VERY POWERFUL ELECTRIC PRESSURE WASHER AND IS ALMOST AS GOOD AS A GAS UNIT. THIS MACHINE CAN CLEAN CONCRETE WITH EXCELLENT RESULTS, YOU CAN CLEAN VINYL SIDING, WOOD DECKS, PATIO FURNITURE, GAS GRILLS AND MORE. AND YES YOU COULD POSSIBLY DAMAGE SOMETHING IF YOU DO NOT USE CAUTION. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH MY SUN JOE SPX3000 AND HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT WANT TO BE BOTHERED WITH A GAS POWERED PRESSURE MACHINE.

I've had the SPX1000 pressure washer for 8 years. I recently replaced the gun because it was leaking. But in light residential duty, it has been awesome, especially given the price. Today it ran literally for several hours straight while I cleaned my driveway which is about 1200 square feet with the surface cleaner attachment and it did a fantastic job. Affordable parts and accessories coupled with the low initial price, low maintenance yet high performance and reliability. It's a big time winner.

I just spent a couple hours playing with this washer. I cleaned two cars (water only), sidewalk/driveway, house siding/gutters, and a very moldy outdoor wood railing. I've never had a pressure washer before, so wasn't exactly sure what to expect. I thought it would be a bit more powerful. It's not terribly underpowered, but I thought it would be more. Cleaning cars: This is the main reason I bought the washer for. I had a ton of really baked on bugs on two cars, I thought it would be a good test. I used the 25deg head for this. The first car I soaked with water and let sit for a while to loosen the bugs a bit. From about 12" away I got about 50% of them off, at about 4" away I got another 30% off, and at 1" I got another 15% or so, leaving a very stubborn 5% left which I had to break down and use a textured sponge to remove. Not too bad I guess. This was on the whole front end obviously, windshield, bumper, and hood. I found some tar in a few places and was able to remove the majority of it, but I think a sponge and some solvent would be needed to do a proper job. The second car I manually sprayed on a strong bug remover chemical and let sit for 30sec, then sprayed with the washer. This time I used the 15deg head and I was able to get nearly all of the bugs off with the washer. I just had a few places where I used the sponge. Not bad. I have newer cars and the paint is intact and strong. I might not be so inclined to get so close with older cars/paint. I could see it getting under a chip or bubble in the paint and removing a bunch of it. I've ordered a foam cannon attachment to soap the cars properly, seems like I'll still need to use that sponge quite a bit as the washer doesn't get the fine dirt on the paint, even at close range. I feel a bit neutral about the unit for cars, I was hoping for it to work better. Cement sidewalk/driveway: I live where there is a lot of moisture around and my sidewalks and driveway turn black every year. I was spraying watered down bleach to get rid of it but that is not very environmentally friendly, and some of my plants would die! I didn't really buy the pressure washer for this but since it's a popular thing to use it for I gave it a shot. I used the 15deg head and had to be about 2-4" from the cement to fully clean it. This means cleaning a 2" strip at a time, it takes a while to do a large area! I was very surprised how well it cleaned cement, very nice! I'm more excited to use it for this than washing cars. House siding/gutters/wood railing: My house has an aged latex stain on it. The paint is very easy to remove with pressure, so I had to be careful. I used the 15deg head but really should have had a wider one on. I just moved back 3-4 feet or so when cleaning the siding so as not to damage the paint. I think I'll stick to the joe-max/bleach for this task in the future due to my sensitive paint. My plastic gutters where terribly moldy! I got 2-4" from them and it cleaned pretty well. If I was super anal I could have used a brush to get every last bit, but the washer did a decent job. I have a raw cedar wood railing on my porch which is extremely moldy! I had to get within 1" and use a few passes to clean it fully, but the wood looks new now! Quite amazing Quality: The build quality of the unit seems ok. It feels/sounds kind of cheap. Some of the parts fit loose and it sounds like it's really working hard when in use... reminds me of what a vacuum sounds like when it binds on a rug end or string. My unit seems to have a variable output, at times it backs off the pressure for no apparent reason. Sometimes it doing more of a pulsing type thing and other times it's more continuous. It also acts very funny if you release the trigger and press it again before it has stopped moving... it fails to start back up properly and you have to stop and wait a few seconds then start again. Strange! Leaks: I was careful to check for leaks after reading all the reviews about them. At first there was a slight leak where the hose adapter (for connecting your garden hose) connects to the unit itself, this seems to be common. It's very hard to hand tighten due to the tight space. The screw part also comes to a sudden tight spot so you don't get the feeling it's really going to hold. For my first round of cleaning it was fine being hand tight. However, some side pressure was applied to the garden hose and therefore the adapter it started leaking a lot! I tried to hand tighten again, but it wouldn't be. Now understood the frustration people had. I used some channel locks to get it a little more snug, but it was leaking worse. I've seen this before, the rubber o-ring gets bunched up and fails to seal. The supplied o-ring is not very wide and I suspect it's not sealing the landing surfaces correctly. I put in my own rubber o-ring which was 50% wider than the supplied one and it worked as I had supposed. Pretty simple fix. Quick disconnect. I decided to get one of these to make connecting the garden hose easier. I stumbled upon Gardena connectors. Wow, super cool. They're just plastic but work awesome, highly recommend, they are worth the price. Overall I'm pretty happy with the washer, it's not exactly what I was hoping for, but I can definitely make use of it in a few different ways. I'm happy with the purchase.

Easy to use and does the job well!

Mine doesn't look the same, it's green and gray. I bought it in 2017 (9 years ago)and it has worked flawlessly ever since. All i do is use it seasonally and put it away drained of water and it has never failed. Perfect for typical household use. Easily assembled and nothing has fallen off yet. It's size is typical for what it is, and easy to maneuver. Grab the handle and roll away. The nozzle angle variety are good, and it's the type of wand with quick disconnects that allow you to add extensions if desired. It truly is one of those items that has stood the test of time.

In a former life I used a pressure washer almost daily. The best pressure washers imho have a Honda GX series commercial grade engine, a CAT pump (which can be rebuilt) and 3000psi+ pressure. They clean well and hold up well over the long haul but are expensive, starting in the $700 to $800 range and out of my budget range. I didn't expect much when I ordered the Sun Joe SPX 3000 but I was pleasantly surprised especially considering the price (Deal of the Day) I paid. Ordered on a Sunday and it was sitting on the front porch Tuesday (thanks Amazon!). It's packed well and that's a good thing considering the box was found upside down- no damage thanks to the good packaging. Assembly is easy ... if you read the manual first, it's clear and concise. I'd use a regular or ratcheting screwdriver instead of a power tool (i.e.cordless drill or impact driver) on the self tapping screws used for assembly- there's far less risk of stripping the hole. Mine came with a metal supply fitting instead of the all plastic one others have mentioned - no leaks. The Good- it works well. The pro style gun tips make it versatile- even at just 2000 psi the 0 degree tip can do some real damage if you're not careful.. No, it doesn't have the power of a commercial grade pressure washer but so far it has done everything I and most homeowners would ask of it- clean siding, concrete walks, the nasty underside of a mower deck or your vehicle. It's quiet especially compared to gas engine powered pressure washers. There's no gas to buy or oil to change. Two year (residential use only) warranty, a better warranty than many. And real live U.S. based humans in customer service The Bad- it's a bit difficult to move with the 35' (iirc) power cord on the rear and the water supply hose on the front. And you WILL have to move it as there's only 20' of high pressure hose. I'm going to order Sun Joe's SPX-25H 25' extension hose later this month- 45 total feet of high pressure hose will save a lot of moving. I disconnect the supply hose before moving- the new supply coupling may be metal but it attaches to a plastic fitting on the machine. Dragging around 25' or more of garden hose can't be good for it. Suggestions- 1. Check your water supply before you buy any pressure washer. Take the hose you're going to use with the pressure washer and fill a 5 gal. bucket for exactly one minute. Check the quantity of water in the bucket- you should have at the very least what your pressure washer is rated for (1.76 GPM in the case of the Sun Joe) and preferably more.. Some older homes with galvanized steel water pipes have id's the size of a pencil due to years of sediment/corrosion and will not have enough water flow as will some homes on wells .... better to know before you buy. And if you have enough water flow, make sure you open your hose bib/wall hydrant/ spigot ALL the way, every time. Using a larger hose can help- I use a 3/4" commercial garden hose on mine instead of the usual 5/8". 2. Read the manual thoroughly before you start, especially if this is your first pressure washer.... you will probably save yourself some aggravation. 3. At first sign of freezing weather get your pressure washer to someplace where it won't freeze unless you want to wind up with an expensive plant stand on wheels. Conclusion- The Sun Joe SPX 3000 is a good machine at a great price and for most residential homeowners, it is as good as it gets. It's quiet, does the job, no gas to buy or oil to change. Update 9/13/20: It's still working and still no complaints. The extra length of hose has been helpful. Store it properly and you should get good life out of it.

I’m shopping for a gas pressure washer for better range so I can renew fences around my property & was curious as to when I purchased my current pressure washer, an older model of this Sun Joe electric washer. March 2017 and this puppy still works like a champ here on April 3, 2026. I use it a few times per year for medium sized projects like cleaning our brick patio, house exterior, and cars. Never had issues with the pump, has enough power to get jobs done quickly and effectively, and easy to use. One can only hope that the new gas pressure is as good as this durable little machine. So there’s my review Sun Joe, nine years later. Five out of five stars. Thank you!

Well thought out, solid pressure washer. I've had a few now including DeWalt (gas) and my Karcher (electric) that lasted me 15 years. This SUNJOE SPX3000 is a perfect household pressure washer. My 3300 psi Dewalt was overkill with an insanely loud Honda gas engine. Unlike my last electric pressure washer this one has a nice 25 foot heavy duty power cable as well as a 25 foot pressure washer hose. Pretty solid construction, easy to assemble and with an unbeatable price I would highly recommend this to anyone looking. Something to remember about the gas pressure washers is you can't leave them running, you can't let them sit there and run with the motor idling because it causes the pump to overheat. DeWalt instruction manuals tell you not to let it idle without squeezing the handle for more than two minutes at a time. They do have a relief valve for this reason built-in, if the pump gets too hot from idling too long without water flowing through it it will purge itself until it's cool enough. They are more or less meant to run nonstop full power. You just don't have to worry about that stuff with the electric ones. Especially this one with the auto shut off which they call the total stop system. The electric ones you can wash your car and not have to listen to a gas engine sitting there running the entire time and having to shut it off and restart it with the pull cord on top of wearing earplugs to tolerate the engine noise. We'll see how many years I get out of this one. Would highly recommend. Especially with the two-year warranty.

Muy buen producto y excelente desempeño, pero antes de un año falló en su eficiencia. Quise hacer efectiva la garantía (ofrecen 2 años en la misma página de Amazon) y me salieron conque esta empresa, solo vende y da servicio en USA y Canadá, y que no podían hacer nada porque el producto lo compre en Amazon Mexico. Esta es la respuesta que recibí: “ nuestros productos solo estaban destinados a ser vendidos en los EE. UU. y Canadá. No es Snow Joe + Sun Joe quien vende directamente nuestros productos fuera de los países mencionados. Su unidad se ordenó a Amazon, que es una compañía completamente diferente que nos solicita existencias y luego las revende en sus sitios web, incluido Amazon-México.” Y esta es su conclusión: En segundo lugar, seguimos comprometidos a brindar servicios de garantía a todas las unidades, incluida la suya. Solo que trabajamos solo dentro de EE. UU. y Canadá. En pocas palabras ya perdiste por no vivir en esos países. Pésimo servicio al cliente…!

The Sun Joe unit was the highest PSI/GPM combination I could find. The PSI/GPM combination is more important than just PSI, because the combination of the two is what gives any pressure cleaner the ability to maximize its cleaning effectiveness. As a result, this unit has amazing pressure cleaning capabilities for a portable 120V unit. It was immediately noticeable upon arrival, that this unit was well made. All the parts fit together well and the wand and hose had that quality look and feel. I was happy with my purchase. After using it for the past 2 years, I can honestly say, this is the best portable pressure washer I have ever owned. It has great cleaning ability using any of the 4 different nozzles that came with it. One of the things I like the best about it is the smooth quiet operation. It hums along and isn't overly intrusive from a noise standpoint. This makes it easier to use for long periods of time. I am a happy customer. I actually bought another Sun Joe product (a wood chipper) because I was so happy with the Sun Joe quality in this pressure washer.

Works great for washing car with recommended PSI of 1450 is ideal for washing cars with ceramic coating or special finishing. Reason for 4 stars is that the pressure washer gun holder does not have a bottom so it actually touches the ground, not good when you are wheeling the washer around. Would have been great if there was a bottom in the holder and will not touch the ground.

I bought this pressure washer in May 2020. I usually try to use a product for awhile and wait awhile to rate it. So far I am satisfied with this basic pressure washer. There's no reservoir for detergent which I may have wanted to use on few uses. Overall it has met my needs and for a decent price. TIP: bring your power washer indoors in the cold winter months ! I had another power washer before and it became damaged because I neglected to bring it in from the garage. I was careful and brought this one in each cold season and it performs well.

I bought this in the summer of 2024 and have used it a few times since. I think I have a well-built entry-level/mid-range pressure washer. Yes, it's all plastic, but it's solid, well-assembled, and nothing has any play. The power is perfect for home use, and most importantly, the hose and cord length are good. My only complaint is that it doesn't come with a rotating nozzle; I bought one separately for $15. Not a big deal. Very happy for the price, I recommend it.
