Yep, more compact and more gpm. I want to get one when it goes on sale

I have a lot of respect for you man. The level of content you pump out is insane.

You've taught me so much about detailing in the last 24 hours its remarkable. I'm never going to wash my car "normally" ever again, pressure washer it is. Especially since I just got a brand new 2024 Accord and I want to keep the paint as nice as brand new. Thanks Josh!

Thanks Josh. Appreciate your reviews!

Thank Josh. I’m lovin my Active 2.0.

Still use my dewalt 2100 psi 1.2 gpm. Made a cart out of the Vulcan welding cabinet like you did in another video. Mounted the pressure washer right to the top. It’s flawless.

Thanks for the discount code for the Active 2.3. I just ordered one. It was nice saving $64

I’m good with the ryobi 2300 psi 1.2 gpm. Brushless motor. Auto on off feature. I got that one based upon your input way long ago. Thank you once again 👍🏼

Great video and information. Thank you for making it !

Just did preorder on the Big Boi pro. Your discount code saved me the cost of shipping. Hoping it actually shows up mid april like they claim.

Hell yea, I just bought the active 2.3 with your code. Thanks! $585 is a steal!

I love your content and your approach to testing car detailing products. Any chance you can do your thing and test the Triphene coating that is all over my fyp on TT? Thx.

Can you make a chart showing the results of the pressure washers you have tested over the years?

I have the previous DeWalt electric pressure washer got it for like 250 saw it had increased i believe. Its only 2100 psi but has been adequate w 40' tip nozzle. Beleive the design is more rugged w cage surround which i like

Do you have any vids or recommendations on getting the small scratches off of the interior "chrome" plastic trim pieces

Sheesh that thing took a dump with the active tip 😂😂 I just ordered a kranzle. It comes in tomorrow and I’m stoked! I’ve had 2 actives, they are great as well!

i have the Adams 2.0 pressure washer and highly recommend it.... it's better than the DeWalt in every way, and you can usually wait for a 25% off sale to buy it since it's a little on the expensive side - but worth it

I just got the 1800 ryobi and it's bananas how useless the hose was. Could not get it to unwind. Got the 50ft uberflex instead.

It sounds quieter because its a lower frequency buzz. Its not as "irritating" to the ears and thus sounds better.

I am a DIY and weekend warrior AND enjoy car detailing. What started me was when I got my 1996 Impala SS. Still have it and it looks great after 28 years. Almost 1/2 my life. So, I like near top of the list products and tools. With that said, I am saving money to buy a good pressure washer. I am looking to purchase one with a $900 budget. What do you think? Which PW do you recommend? Thanks Josh.

Quick question Mr Josh 💯 I have a 1900 psi 1.2gpm green works pressure washer it’s a 13amp motor what extension cord do you recommend

Can you list what electric pressure washers you know about that have the Total Stop System, in the 2800psi to 3400psi range?

They have a 3000psi electric also, can you review that one soon?

Josh, have you tried the Westinghouse WPX 3000e, (3000psi/1.76gpm), also the WPX3200e (3000psi/1.76) or WPX3400e (3400psi/2.0 gpm). $279$/349/$399 respectively at Home Depot or Lowes. Can't find any real tests on pressure/volume with the different nozzles. I just mainly want it for cars, and the increased volume sounds much better than the 1.1gpm stuff. Trying to eliminate the Active 2.0 because of the surging issues with the UberFlex hoses. All three claim a 13amp motor, that can't be can it?

When are you doing a review on the new Dewalt 3000 PSI 1.1 GPM?? I need something powerful enough for home but also can use for vehicles.

same design and power of pressure that we have in the Philippines for $80

you need calipers so you can actually measure the mm orifice sizes or your nozzles

Please review the EGO pressure washer battery powered one for $799. It’s 3,200 psi

Nice

Not bad but if I am going to spend this much money I will add or double it to get the new Active 2.3 which I can not afford anyway another good video Josh

I'm in the same boat. I just want one that can give me 2 gpm at around 1100psi for just my cars. Already have a gas one. If I have a moment and spend 800-1000 dollars for one (new hoses, gun etc) my wife will have me committed.

Do a review on some of the units from Canpump. They seem to make high quality pumps and they have an option under $600

Sorry, but this is a hard pass for me at $400.00 ($100.00 for the P/W + $299.00 for the DeWalt branding). On a much better note, I did order the PF22 wide-mouth bottle from your store and I'll deburr the bottle if need be. Thank you and again, another great review.

Awesome! I fit the tops and give them a few turns so they aren’t as bad when you get them!!! Yeah this pressure washer is a bit of a disappointment. If you just need higher psi from an electric unit it’s not bad, but the flow is just too low

I love love dewalt....but this was a big miss. I love my active 2.0 way to much to give it up

I'm trying to get my first pressure washer, anywhere between $100-$200. Any recommendations on the market right now?

@bstewartexecutivecarcare3797

I have been using a Karcher 1700 for about 6 years and you can find them under $200. I would recommend upgrading the hoses and spray gun and foam cannon. If you’re looking to use it on a regular basis you might want to consider just pulling the trigger and buying the kit from Obsessed Garage. You pay more up front but you will get years of use without having to worry about upgrading anything.

That's is sad! Maybe okay to use this at a work site or just for pressure washing

The greenworks 3000 psi electric pressure washer is still the champ!

@cgraham6

3000 psi? That’s way too much pressure for use on a car, even taking into account the pressure drop through the discharge hose. Hopefully that unit has a regulator on it.

Did you test GPM with the larger orifice? I wonder if a 2.0 or even 1.5 size orifice would be the sweet spot.

Seems maybe this unit is not meant for auto detailing but more for house siding and cement, basically everything other than auto.

Exactly. If you need higher psi and a seemingly good pump then this could be perfect. But not great for cars for sure

Made that JJC foam cannon look like a Chemical Guy's quality cannon. Yikes. I'll def pass especially since better results can be had with a Ryobi

Damn i feel like dewalt half assed this. They shouldve just built a cordless one , made it a little better quality to compete with the Ego

Oh my Josh, what does professional mean? I don't understand.

Total bummer .I was expecting better results

I rather go with an active 2.0 instead, if Milwaukee came out with a PW it would be so much better than this $400 dewalt.

Good review and thank you for saving me money on not purchasing this pressure washer.

The perfect pressure washer for car detailing doesn't exist.

Kranzle.

Karcher 1700 (or higher): 2000 PSI, doesn't bog out with changing orifice, 1.2GPM, under 200 on Amazon. While I generally like Dewalt products, I'm going to steer VERY far away from this. This seems like a not very well engineered unit, so they slapped "professional" on the name to make up for it with marketing.

Nahhhh, I aint paying 400 for this! 🤣🤣🤣

1 gpm lol

It's the same bullshit PW for the home gamer but in Yellow cladding and DeFalt logo. Same 50hr plastic axial pump, same Chinesium universal motor as the Cryobi. Not skookum at all.

This thing would be an impulse buy. Hoping the Dewalt name and silly claims on the box is the snake-oil sales pitch that suckers them in.

Damn, they’re just throwing “Professional” on anything huh?

Does this guy detail cars anymore or just KZread for free products ?
