I just bought this pressure washer based on your video and I really appreciate it and the fact that you listed where to get the other hose and connections.. I bought it directly from your link made it so easy appreciate it man thank you.

Great Vid thank you. I am a 15 year Car detailer turned to motorcycle Mechanic. I took all my skills and added them to motorcycles.

Really appreciate this review. Was thi king about getting this unit to start my car detail business. 👌

Dude from this day on I'm not watching anyone but you and Apex,couldn't be happier ☺

Bro you are the absolute authority on pressure washers. Love the videos

Excellent review. This made me change my mind on this product...I'm going with the 2400.

Very good and thorough review. That little DeWalt pressure washer looks IMPRESSIVE! Really well thought out, especially with that on-board storage, telescopic handle, on-board tip storage in the handle (which looks stout). And with the DeWalt name, hopefully it lasts like their other power tools which lasts for YEARS and YEARS! Very nice looking little unit. For a enthusiast just getting into more extensive detailing, this little unit would be perfect.

Clear and concise review. Well done and thank you.

I like how compact that unit is. Definitely a space saver. Great review as always 👏.

What an awesome and thorough review. Ended up pulling the trigger on this one! This channel is so insightful, and this guy is very honest and positive! Hope this guy explodes on KZread

I recently picked one up on sale ($200). I purchased the the recommended Uberflex hose for mine. The kinky stock hose drove me nuts and is the only negative I have on this unit. It was obviously built to a price point. The suitcase design is a storage game changer. It should win an award. Excellent tip on the UberFlex hose!

Love your Galaxy! Thank ya for the test

Josh, just picked up one of these pressure washers after watching many many or your reviews and detailing videos. It has decent numbers and should be perfect for what I am looking for. Got the last one at my local HD. Already ordered the UberFlex, quick connects, foam cannon, and nozzle tips so looking forward to putting it to use on our cars. Thanks for doing such a thorough job on all these various brand reviews as well as the other auto detailing videos. It is much appreciated!

Just picked one of these up! Thanks for your reviews, helped me to decide go with the DeWalt v Greenworks for what I’m going to use it for. I’m off to your Amazon links for ultra flex because that OEM hose is really bad.

This worked perfectly for what i wanted. I have a pontoon boat and the deck is vinyl. The seam where the boat seats meets the floor is hard to clean with a brush and you have to get down on your hands and knees to do it. This thing worked great. Not only does it ckean well, but the nozzle reaches perfectly. I dont need a lot of pressure, just an easy way to clean cordlessly. I store the unit in a locked compartment and just carry the battery back and forth.

Hey man thanks for the information 👍. Very helpful sir !

I have the Dewalt 2100 PSI 1.2 GPM Pressure Washer. I use it to clean the vinyl fence and to clean concrete also to wash the car. I put a pressure gauge on my unit to check the PSI. With the white spray nozzle I typically see pressure readings of 1400 PSI. I use the white spray nozzle for cleaning the fence and it does a great job. The Yellow spray nozzle I use to clean concrete and typically I see pressure readings of 1700 PSI. The Yellow spray nozzle does a fantastic job cleaning concrete it is just slower than a bigger unit. I have seen the line pressure on my gauge go as high as 2600 PSI and the output pressure reading at the nozzle at a steady and amazing pressure of 2200 PSI.

Thanks to this review I hit up my local Facebook Marketplace and found a unit for sale. I won't go into any details of my purchase experience but lets just say I scored a new warranty replaced unit from Dewalt for $70 CAD. One thing you missed about the handle is the locking tab which is inset on the plastic frame, excellent idea.

Great review as always. It would've been better if the extension would come with a quick connect to the gun so you can switch from a long to a short or vice versa. Price Is a little steep, but you're comparing to a higher end tool brand. Good job.

Can you make a video on which Generators you recommend for a mobile detailing set up? Thanks and great vid!

Success.....I know from reading many of the comments, that many of you like myself have wanted to make the gun a "Stubby" as Josh mentioned in his video. They might make one, however I couldn't find anything that would work directly with the OEM thread (14mm 1.5 pitch by the way). what I finally did was take the gun apart, remove the OEM fitting on the end. This is a 1/8 pipe thread, at this point you just need a reducing bushing. I went from 1/4 to 1/8, then added on the 1/4 quick connect fitting. Put the gun back together and it looks like it came that way.....minus the Teflon tape....LOL I shot a small video and will post it to my channel when I get a minute so you can see what the finished product looks like. Hope this helps a few of you out there and I would like to thank Josh for sharing his time and knowledge to the rest of us.

thanks for this. Sounds like this machine is a go then. Will pick it up tomorrow and tackle this within the next day or two. Thanks again! Cheers!

The max operating out-put pressure can be effected by the supply water pressure too. In a commercial setting you can have higher city water pressure than you would have at your home. I run an average of 55 to 60 psi in my house because it has a regulator on it. At my garage it comes straight off the water meter and there isn't a regulator for the 1 hose bib that I have down there and, that usually runs around 130 to 140 psi. Crazy water hose pressure too, I usually replace 1 or 2 garden hoses a year because I'm to cheap to buy GOOD hoses LOL... My electric pressure washer says it's a 1900 psi unit but, connected to the house I only get around 1600 to 1675 psi. At the garage, I gets closer to 1800. No, it still doesn't reach 1900 psi but you see my point. So for me it seems to make a difference. Thank you for the review, Have a good day!

great video quick question why do you recommend not using the soap tank

just ordered one!

Great bud. I’m debating about getting this or Adams washer. Which would you recommend?

From a user's perspective washing an old muscle car, lower psi for the soap and rinse nozzles is good, so it doesn't get under light seals and covers or are too hard on trims. An adjustable nozzle is even better. Very nice review.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 very nice review thank you

Have you done a review on the new 3000psi DeWalt? Great videos!

Nice review, looks like a great unit. Love how compact it is; for the same price point as the Greenworks 2300, it pulls lesser but still good PSI/GPM numbers but it doesn't have that annoying delay, huge plus. I have more faith in Dewalt's reliability than Hart, Greenworks or Ryobi. Seems totally worth it, just wish every $200+ pressure washer came with an uberflex or similar hose.

Good review. Thanks. Good looking machine. The big problem I see is, if it draws over 15 amps; it will blow an average home garage circuit every time. Deal breaker. I can buy the gun as an upgrade.

Hey Josh. Great video. Question: do you have any opinion on a pressure washer to clean a cedar deck? I have two decks each about 200 sq feet where the wood is silver in colour and parts have moss. I like to restore the original cedar colour without damaging the wood. I have read you need anything between 800 PSI up to 2500 PSI ... so no consensus. I am also on a Well, so not sure how that impacts a choice of pressure washer. Anyhow....I love this Dewalt unit as it is compact, but I also like the Ryobi 2300, both are about the same price but have different PSI ratings. Interested in your thoughts.

I looked at Ryobi ry142300 which has more PSI and uses less water with just 1.2GPM which is perfect to clean any household stuff. But the thing is, it is bulky to store it after use every time. So looking for a compact one. DeWALT 2100 appears almost perfect as it is compact and comes with comparable results with Ryobi 2300 PS, but the only issue here is, it uses more power than 15Amps so I need to upgrade my electric before I consider buying this one!

Which one did you end up getting? I was split between the Ryobi 2300, this dewalt 2100, and the CAT 1800. I purchased a Ryobi 2300 based on it taking the lead in performance, but I'm iffy about it. It's not huge, but it is bulky. This youtuber said he uses one in his business but he unbolted the pump and motor from the frame to make it a compact unit, which I'm thinking about doing and then storing it simply on the shelf. The part that is the kicker for me is that this Dewalt comes with a better gun with a stubby option (provided you get the adapter), more nozzles at a wider range of orifice sizes, and the much better form factor. I'm going to think about trying out the dewalt.

Is this one recommended over the active ve52??

So the only issue that I see with this pressure washer is the storage of the wand parts. You mentioned using a quick connect kit with it so you could use a foam cannon with just the handle and you don't have to have it at the end of a 2 foot wand. Have you tested that all the hand wand and parts will fit back into the unit with the extra length added to them? Looking at mine it seems really tight and I don't think it will fit back into the storage compartment. Are you able to verify this works?

We need to know if you're able to use that pressure washer handle and what to buy to make it snubby

If a 50ft, hose is added will it fit in the hose storage area on board the Dewalt 2100 ?

I might pick this up when I get paid

Would this be good for a foam canon? Enough GPM?

Total stop and no delay seems like a big plus compare to the greenworks...

i’m getting an electric pressure washer soon, should i get this one or the ryobi 1900 psi ? btw excellent videos
