Sun Joe SPX6001C-CT iON 40V 1160 PSI Max Cordless Pressure Washer, Tool Only

This is a good pressure washer for those without a nearby water source. As a car detail enthusiast and living in an apartment without a garden hose, this was what I needed. As everyone of you who will read this review, the price is a real eye opener, expensive because this is the only product in its class from a reputable manufacturer in this performance range. If only Dewalt, Milwaukee or any cordless manufacturer (ahem) would make something similar, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.I received this unit yesterday, used it today. So, this is 1 day old from opening.PROS:Requirements met, mobile, cordless, decent pressure and nozzle choices included.Aesthetically pleasingRolls nicely2 year manufacturer warranty40V battery can be used for 2 other Sun Joe productsLight weightNice brass one-way valves and fittingsTwo inlet filters, one brass, one plastic.Quality hoseCONS: - see details belowMinor design complaintsChoice of materialsPoor quality in high wear componentsCONS Explained:Design:- Bucket is rectangular and hoses, nozzles and gun holster are mounted all on one side, yet there is only ONE bucket carrying handle in the middle. I can't picture anyone carrying this bucket with that handle empty, let alone full!- Unit comes with a garden hose attachment adapter and a cleaning needle, and no place to put it. A storage compartment or dummy fitting to attach the accessories to would be nice.Quality:- Galvanized steel on screw adapters, including top inlet and hose outlet threads. Stainless or brass would be preferred.- Cosmetically marred aluminum carry handles- Nozzle clips are plastic, one of mine is already loose and no longer firmly retains the nozzle.- (High wear potential) The clamps that hold the bucket to the base is weak, one of the clamps had popped out of its socket in shipment to me. One clamp currently does not produce a firm "snap" when clamping into place.- Wheels are secured by plastic braces and screwed in. This is nice for replacements, but not super good for longevity.- (High wear potential) Battery compartment door is secured passively by 2 weak nubs. Overtime, these will most likely wear out. Given a 30 min usage time with 5.0Ah, you're basically opening and closing the door every time you use this.- (High wear potential) Recessed male plug for trigger assembly to hose connection is made of plastic. I can see this failing over time.- Not sure if this was poor QA or as a result of poor design, galvanized inlet thread has chalky, filmy, white crust beyond the inlet filter, which may eventually clog up your machine. I can't tell if this is from the plastic of the inlet filter, being rubbed against the steel, or this was just residue from manufacturing. I was able to use a wooden popsicle stick to scrape it off. We'll have to see if there's another build up after next use.First impressions:Pressure is definitely not strong enough to strip cured, healthy paint. Cannot strip tar/slurry marks off textured concrete (using 0degree nozzle). Highest pressure (800PSI) with 25degree nozzle does not hurt the hand.For a car wash, it does the job, but if I could have one wish, I would like to have at least 1 or 1.25 GPM, currently it sits under 0.8.I would give this a 4 star if it wasn't for the price. Judging by the quality of the build, this unit would be more fair at 50 dolls less.

If you have realistic expectations you will probably love this pressure washer. For small jobs near a water source it is great. I used it last week to clean my dock. The obvious drawback is battery life- it ran about 35-40 minutes on a charge so it took a good while to get the 16’x16’ dock done, but a gas pressure washer would have been useless as the dock is too far from a spigot to run a hose. The upside was that it gave me a good excuse to not work too long. The other jobs pictured (the picnic table, and the bench and paving stones) were great tests and since I did have a spigot nearby, I didn’t have to stop and refill the bucket- I just ran the hose into the bucket to keep it topped off. Still had to deal with fairly short battery life though, but not too bad on the small jobs. It has enough power to get the dirt off, and doesn’t gouge the wood. In summary I love my SunJoe after giving it a good workout last week. Again- be realistic. Oh, and it’s pretty quiet and doesn’t wear you out using it.

This power washer is amazing!! I love this thing!! I bought it to clean my ducks enclosure. My ducks poop A LOT.It is perfect, the reservoir hold just over 5 gallons of water and runs off a powerful battery. The battery lasts about 30 minutes, or long enough to fill and use the 5 gallon reservoir 3 times on high pressure. It cleans the duck floor extremely well and very fast!I have read reviews that say it is not powerful, I have to disagree. It is quite powerful. The pressure will also double when you add a hose, and not use the reservoir.The wheels are small on the power washer, but it rolls well on cement. I need it to be able to go through my backyard, so I put it inside of a utility cart that has big wheels so I can take it into my yard.I am so pleased, I think the only improvement I would like is the ability to plug it in if battery runs out.When empty it is extremely light weight, when filled with water it is heavy, but rolls well.It is very easy to use. I find it easier to use then a standard power washer.I purchase an extra battery so I can clean for one hour or more.

This thing is perfect! Battery life is great right now as we can get all 3 vehicles washed on 1 charge so hopefully it continues.. We can wash 1 car with each bucket which is pretty good. The pressure is really good considering its battery powered. Pleasantly surprised overall. We live in an apt so this is easy to store and use. Def worth the money. Will be investing in a second battery as well..

I just received my cordless pressure washer and used it on my car this past weekend. I live in an apartment, so I do not have a running source of water like a person who lives in a home. The instruction booklet is very easy to read; there are three booklets in three different languages (English, Spanish and French) along with great illustrations on how to put the washer together. After charging the battery, I washed my vehicle with no problems. The washer also has four different tip that are added to the end of the sprayer so you can have a concentrated stream of water or a wider stream to cover a larger area. Whenever the handle on the sprayer is not pressed, the washer shuts off to conserve battery power. You can also connect the washer to a running source of water (such as a neighbor or friends home water system) with an included adapter kit. I have been pleasantly surprised by the ease of use and how clean my car has become. I am an Old School type of person who believes in washing my own vehicle and not paying $20 or more for someone to wash and vacuum my car. The wheels and rims are easy to clean as well. This has been one of my better purchases from Amazon.Also, you can go to the Sun Joe Website and register your washer on line and add a one to three year warranty. The website is extremely easy to navigate through. Thank you for your time!!!

The first unit I received had some issue with its motor or power supply. Glad the exchange through Amazon was seemless. The replacement so far works perfectly. I've used it to wash my car. Even though at its highest pressure setting it cannot be compared with plugged power washer, it definitely gets the job done nicely if you have some patience. I also bought Amazon brand foam cannon just to test for fun. The result is that the pressure is just enough to get the cannon going but it doesn't produce a thick layer of foam. Overall, it is a wonderful product.

The media could not be loaded.  This works great for what I need. You can attach directly to a hose or use the bucket. Pre-soaked my truck, went over it by hand with a brush and soap/wax mix. Pressure washed off and it’s clean as it can get using 2/3 battery lights. 4 different spray attachments and 3 power settings. No problem so far. The video is on the lowest power with the 15 degree angle nozzle.

Je suis satisfait de se produit et très pratique pour des endroits difficiles quand on a pas d’eaux

No battery with this kit!!

Handy easy to set up
