Nicely made and priced right for the homeowner
I have used surface cleaner attachments for pressure washers for a number of years and they are undoubtedly the best way to uniformly clean any large hard flat surface. Along with a foam canon, a surface cleaner is an absolute essential accessory for any pressure washer. The early units did not have wheels and relied on the reactive forces to lift the unit so it would glide over the surface, however, it is essential with any surface cleaner to be in motion before applying pressure to keep from possibly eroding the surface with a concentrated stationary blast and not having the wheels made sliding the unit when it was not under pressure somewhat tricky at times. Clearly adding wheels solved this problem.If you are a professional using a surface cleaner on a daily basis, there are far larger, more expensive units available that will probably hold up better over time and protracted use. However, if you are a typical home owner with 3 or 4 hundred square feet of surface to maintain, then this unit is probably your best “bang for the buck”. It is about the right size (13”) and a good compromise between speed and maneuverability. It is designed to be used with either a wand or a gun and comes with spare parts and maintenance tools. The unit I got was completely assembled and ready to hook-up to the PW and start cleaning. The model I got also included a “turbo” nozzle, which is a $15 to $25 gadget, that I have been using for several years and prefer it for doing many jobs. They may intend it to facilitate rinsing the cleaned area, but I have found that the higher volume of water from a garden hose works best. I have always used city water and can't remember the last time I needed to replace a jet because it was worn beyond use, but they supply spare jets just in case.Most of the components appear to be relatively corrosion resistant, but it would probably be a good practice to blow off and the douse the wheel thrust bearings with WD-40 after each use. As with any tool, a little care will generally prolong its use for many years.

Surface cleaning is so much easier with this attachment
In the past I used a Turbo Nozzle to clean my concrete Patio, Driveway and Sidewalks. It certainly worked well but the single stream nozzle made this a very time-consuming and tedious job.I recently became aware of surface cleaner attachments for power washers, so I decided to order this brand.I have a 2300 PSI electric power washer. I was worried that it would not have enough pressure and flow enough water to correctly power this surface cleaner. I got out today to test it on my front sidewalk and was very impressed and happy with the performance. It is so much faster than my old method. I estimate that what took me five minutes today would have taken 20 minutes before.One thing to note is that this is a round surface cleaner. It will not get into corners and right up to edges if there is a border. You will have to switch to a standard Turbo Nozzle to get into these areas.Features that I really like about this surface cleaner:1) It has four wheels that allow you to effortlessly glide across the surface in any direction.2) All the spray is contained underneath the unit which means no dirty water and debris spraying all over the place while you are cleaning.3) The rotating nozzles clean the surface without leaving stripes. When using a Turbo Nozzle I must clean in two opposing directions to try and eliminate the stripes.I wish I had gotten a surface cleaner years ago. I don’t how this brand compares to others because this is the only one I have ever used but I can say that I am very happy with the way it works and the results I was able to achieve.
