Female reviewer and user here: After failing to get my sisters gas powered & heavy power washer to start again…. I decided to go electric! Did not want to fool with gas, oil, choke or pulling the cord multiple times to get it started I decided to try an electric power washer as I have borrowed a friends lower powered stand up power washer and it was so so. I did some homework on which brand to buy & decided on the greenworks brand. I chose this model as it has a low center of gravity “tank” style if you will, so it won’t tip over like my friends electric washer did constantly. THIS LITTLE BEAST did not disappoint!!! It was easy to walk it up my stairs with the wheels and handle. I ran this thing for 7 solid hours & it was a trooper!
