Electric pressure washer advice?

[frankenstein4]

My old electric pressure washer gave up on me after 6 years. I mainly use it for occasional patio cleaning and washing rugs, but I also need it for our cedar fence...I’ve been eyeing a Greenworks model, but I’ve never tried their stuff before. Anyone had experience with them? Or should I look at other options? I don’t need anything too heavy-duty, just something for basic home use. thanks for any tips

Greenworks is decent for light jobs, frankenstein4. I used one for patio cleaning and it held up fine.

I’d look for the highest gpm and pressure you can afford. Generally, the higher the gpm, the more effective the cleaning power would be.

Yes, Greenworks is a safe choice for what you described. If you find a 2000-PSI model at a good price, it'll probably feel very similar to what your old washer did.

Greenworks 2000 PSI Electric Pressure Washer is a good budget choice. Plenty of power for patios, fences, and siding, and many users say it’s easy to assemble and quiet for home use.

Greenworks is a solid budget pick. I've seen the G40 get decent reviews for patio and fence cleaning, and the 1600 PSI model is super light and easy to move around.
But if I'm being honest, I've also seen a few complaints about flimsy build quality and overheating on bigger jobs. For occasional patio and rug cleaning it'll probably do the trick, but that cedar fence might push a cheaper unit hard.
If you want something that'll last, I'd also peek at the Sun Joe SPX3000 or a Ryobi if you're near a Home Depot. Just don't expect gas level power from any of these little guys.
