I have the SGS28 and it took me a little while to get use to the pointing angle, it makes me point my wrist down word when I use it. I'm used to it now and I really like it. That easy trigger pull will make it last along time.

Which is “better” out of the 2 you have? Is the angle of the SGS35 different to the SGS28? Any info on this comparison will be appreciated. Thx.

I love your insite, and all your videos...Keep up the Great work.

I’ve had both, MTM is 10000000% worth the upgrade LOVE the easy pull trigger

Hey ! Love your Videos ! Just Bought the Quick Connects off your Amazon List , also getting the McKillan Snub gun off your list and the Mr Pink Suds !! ! Can't Thank You enough for your easy to watch detailed honest opinion videos !! Can't get the swivel think I have to buy it separate ! Keep up these Great Videos

Thank you man I am new to your channel and car detailing so I appreciate you. I have one thought on the sound portion of the the connectors that may have caused the grinding in the MTM. Stainless steel is a very hard surface as compared to brass that is much softer and that may be the difference. Keep them coming, not all of us would buy/compare like you do.

Been following this channel for like a week saved me a lot of troblein running into bad products

Thnx. I really like MTX products. I have their gun and wand. Plus the rubber tip to prevent damage in case the tip hits the car. Their customer service is excellent.

I used to buy the same as you until I tried the SGS28 and you will be shocked how much easier it is to pull the trigger. It’s hard to explain how light the pressure is needed on SGS28 compared to that McKillans. I would get one off Amazon and try it and if you don’t like it, return it. I used to think exactly as you as well as the guy making this video but just pulling that trigger for a couple hours and you’ll be able to tell the difference. It’s extremely noticeable!

Great review, im in the market for one of these and undecided weather to go more expensive for the stainless as brass is a lot softer, given the trigger configuration I too like the brass with the pin into the tube itself thanks for sharing your experience with these😎😎😎😎

Great videos man. I bought the mjjc foam cannon from your website based on your reviews. Keep up the good work

Love the mckillans. Thanks for letting me know about it . I used the torq and that damn thing made my fingers buff and grip strength another level . I’ll never use anything else but the mckillans. Great bang for the buck!

Just bought it to replace my long wand.

I have 2 of the McKillan pressure washer guns and love them.

I just picked up the SGS28 because I have the SG28 and love it, I just wanted a gun with a swivel. McKillans was sitting at $60 when I ordered the SGS28 at $85 with QC’s, so not a huge difference in price currently. I just stuck with the MTM because of owning the non- swivel version and like it.

I got the sgs28 with swivel. High quality and less strain on my hand. I was deciding between mosmatic and this but went with mtm sgs. If sgs28 breaks then i will consider mosmatic

Thanks for the honest review. I wonder if any information can be shared regarding the construction and design of the valve assembly? specifically, is the MTM stainless machined with tight tolerances preventing the need for internal O-rings or seals that maybe the McKillans requires? ie. does the MTM have no internal wear components that may shorten the life of the brass assembly?

On SGS28 regarding the trigger pull is fantastic. It so you dont start getting hand cramps or arthritis. I always start to think about making sure i dont wear my body more than i need to.

Curious to know whether you found any difference in how well the swivel performed from one to the other once both were under pressure?

I have 6 of the mtm sgs28 and I loved them.

As a twice-a-month user, I got the Sooprinse (it that an Ooops of 'soaprinse' or a parody?) which was pretty cheap ..but, nice and beefy - manly.

Another informative video thanks Josh... I have a question to you or anyone else in the know. I have the Mckillins gun (without the swivel) and a Flexilla 50ft hose. What type of connection can I make to mimic the McKillins (with the swivel)?.. A very noob question, but then again that's what I am. Hopefully someone can help me achieve this. Links to Amazon would be great too.

Got the mckillians with the swivel, thanks !

Helpful video. I am new to this but does the Mckillans spray gun come with different nozzles for higher and lower pressure? Say for instance if I need higher pressure to clean my wheels or clean the concrete on my driveway. The wand I am replacing had all that. Any recommended accessories for the mckillans? Thanks

I have the Edou pressure gun and it works great 👍

Good review. thanks

Is there a 3/8 swivel quick connect you can recommend? Or even exist?

I picked up the MTM about a month and a half ago due to the McKillans model with the swivel not being available on Amazon at the time. Kept having trouble with the cheap $15 ones I was getting from Amazon and finally decided to spend some money to get a quality unit. While I would have gone for the McKillans had it been available, I'm really impressed with the MTM gun. Quality is so much better than what I had been using. The only thing I noticed (and something you pointed out in your video) is that the swivel mechanism is kind of tight, and not as free moving as your McKillans. Hopefully that will get smoother over time. Other than that, it's a fantastic bit of kit.

Do the swivel connections still work when the unit is under pressure (pressure washer on) or just when unpressurized? Matt at Obsessed Garage is a big fan of swivel connections but I was always curious about this.

@rudycontreras9725

Just got this one, swivel still works under pressure.

I had to go with the MTM cause my pressure washer is 3400psi and I would like to use the gun for more than just washing my vehicles. Currently the McKillans is 60 bucks and the MTM is 82. I decided the extra 22 bucks was worth it to be able to use my washer at full pressure when needed. If my washer had a lower rating, I would have went with the McKillans gun.

Okay stupid question I just bought the 2100 electric Dewalt power washer can I turn that wand into a short study?

Just wondering can I use the 1.1mm office with my ryobi 2300 psi?

Would like you to try the aerolone tech spray for cars and see what you think of it

How do I convert the 3/8 inch quick connect on the mackillans gun swivel to 1/4 inch. Need to find one that matches the inside thread size to swap out.

Nice review, do they have ceramic ball valve / steel ball valve?

What nozzle do you use when spraying the water?

Hey Josh nice video, just wanted to ask you I’m trying to upgrade my gun and foam cannon as well as the extension I’m using the one that came with the pressure washer I just upgraded the hose with the Uber flex. In your opinion is the Macallin set the gun the extension and the foam cannon you think is a good set or you have a better recommendation thank you and I’ll wait for your response.

Is there a benefit to having the swivel in the wand instead of the hose end?

I've been watching all your vids on pressure washers, wands, soap, everything. I am still confused with one thing. You have different angle tips that determine PSI. What is the PSI when attaching a foam Gun? I never can find anything that explains this. I have the GPW 2300 Electric Pressure washer and the MJCC Foam Pro Cannon (both of which you reviewed). If I attach the MJCC Foam Cannon to the Pressure washer - what is the PSI that I'm getting. I ask because MJCC recommends a 1.35mm orafice for PSI Greater than 2200. You have the best videos again.

I have a simoniz 2900 : 2.5 gpm gas pressure washer , would that be too limit for the mckillans ?

I just got my McKillans I put my MJJC Foam cannon into the quick release it wouldn' lock in place due to o-ring sticking out, how do I fix the o-ring?

@IMJOSHV Can you review the RIDGE WASHER Pressure Washer Gun 5000 PSI, 12 GPM, High Pressure Spray Gun with 1/4" Quick Connector, 3/8'' Quick Connect, M22-14mm and M22-15mm Fitting. It came in at a low price point compared to ones I've seen you recommend and I saw a review where it was taken apart next to the MTM - It also has the swivel and fantastic! You might be blown away ;)

I have a Generac 7122 pressure washer. It's okay, but within the first week of use, the stock hose exploded. I went to Home Depot to get a replacement, and got a Ryobi 35 footer. It's not that much better.. It works, but it kinks up way too often and it's a mission to move around with. I already ordered the Flexzilla 5/16" 50 foot hose. I borrowed my neighbor's gun and wand because the dial on the stock Generac gun is shoddy. The gun didn't have a name on it. It just said Made in Italy on it and it made the stock Generac gun and wand look like trash. Can I use one of these on my machine or is there one you can recommend? Anything is better than what I have, but I want something good. I'm not a professional, but I have to clean my driveway and sidewalk often. The machine runs great, it's just the accessories it came with are either subpar or useless. Kinda like the surface broom is comes with. Absolutely useless. Those Italians must have some special knowledge for making pressure guns because the Vapor Clean steamer I have is Italian also. Anyway, let me know. Thank you!

Would like to upgrade to mckillans but they not showing the swivel version. Maybe they sold out.

Depends on the grade of plastic, if it's a higher grade then it should be good.

The biggest selling point for me is trigger fatigue. That SGS28 is extremely easy and barely requires any strength to pull back compared to the commodity style one you are comparing it to. That’s it’s biggest selling point.

Would you still recommend a stubby wand for washing a tall vehicle?the only benefit of a short gun is better control?

Hi josh How to avail mckillans hand spray

@imjoshv what's your opinion of the adams snubby wand that costs $114?

How is the swivel under pressure? I bought the a Ridge Washer on Amazon and the swivel is stiffer than the hose kinks under pressure so it really doesn't help

Do either of them come with Nozzle tips?

The Mckillan's trigger has more pushback, making it more comfortable to hold and control when it's in use. The MTM (Hydro SG28) kind of locks in place and doesn't spring back into your fingers so it makes you squeeze harder to control it, almost having to fight it when the pressure kicks in. I prefer the Mckillans.

Stainless can take higher pressure and doesn’t corrode as easily

As you said if all you are doing is car detailing then the McKillans will suffice. However if you also have a decent gas pressure washer with good GPM and solid PSI you may be looking to buy a gun for that environment as well. If you are after one gun to do it all the MTM may be the better choice.
