When I had a need for a pressure washer, I bought one off Ebay.
The wand wasn't right, so I bought a wand at Lowe's. And then the
washer didn't work, so I bought another one. I had about $200
invested in the bargain, and then the second one broke a fitting.

Went to do some research. Didn't buy a Karcher cause the high
pressure housing is plastic. Bought a Powerwasher brand from
Home Depot cause the pump was metal. I've been pleased with it
since then.
