CRAFTSMAN 3100 PSI Gas Pressure Washer with SurfaceMaxx Turbo Nozzle & Krud Kutter Pressure Wash Cleaner

Disappointed—Won't restart after 20 minutes of use

I bought this CRAFTSMAN 3100-PSI Pressure Washer because it felt like a very fair price for the power it promised. I genuinely wanted to write a positive review, but it’s incredibly difficult to do that when the machine didn't even give me 30 minutes of total run time. I started it up, ran it for a quick 20 to 30 minutes, and then shut it off for a brief moment just to move it to a different location in my yard. Now, it completely refuses to restart. On top of the sudden starting issue, I notice...

Quality mower

After reviewing many mowers. I always came back to this one. Glad I did. Used it for the first time today. Easy to assemble and started on first pull. After several adjustments to set at the height I wanted . Mowing was easy. Used the mulch version and was surprised at what little clippings there were being my grass was taller than normal. No issues whatsoever. And being on sale helped me decide on the 21565

Problematic

Just purchased this and it’s hard to start out of the box and even after using for an hour and warmed up it was hard to restart. In addition, the box says made in the USA but the engine is made overseas. Definitely not as good as my previous Craftsman with the Briggs and Stratton motor. I do not recommend this machine!

Craftsman replacement to another Craftsman pressur

Pressure washer works really good as far as pressure and hose length is decent. The wheels are plastic not like my last craftsman Pressure washer had real rubber tires with air. When you park the washer gum on the side attachment it jams in the wheels when you move the washer around. I made a modification on the frame to stop this from jaming into the back side of the wheel. All in All its a good replacement to my old unit at a fair price.

Powerful pressure washer for around the house

This pressure washer has plenty of power for cleaning concrete, siding, and outdoor equipment. It was easy to assemble and performed exactly as expected. The different spray tips are useful for different cleaning jobs, and the machine feels sturdy. I’m happy with its performance.

Terrible and cheap

I would not recommend buying this. It feels cheap. It looks cheap, After the first use the soap tank, I noticed has a crack in. It leaked all over my shed floor. I’m sorry I bought it. I’ll be buying a Westinghouse.

Not Reliable

Hose ruptured after the 20 minutes into the first use. After replacement hose was obtained the engine cutoff 30 minutes into the second use. When attempting to restart the pull-cord snapped off into housing. Contacted Lowe's who said it was after the 48 hours and I'd have to contact Craftsman. Craftsman informed me I'd have to take to a repair center only open 9-5 M-F and the three centers they referred me to were an hour plus away. When I called repair centers, the earliest they could get ...

DO NOT BUY

My dad bought it, set it up and hooked it up 2 days later ran for 40 minutes then shut off and wouldnt turn back on. My store was kind to offer refunds after 48 hours. lady at craftsman said to also usue all 16 ounces of oil it came with but it already had about 7 in it from apprently testsign before transported to stores so too much oil as well. stay away from this junk, getting a second one for free hoping to not have the same problem. if so im takign mysefl to homedeopot and getting a Dewalt ...

100% Junk

Quit running after 15 minutes of use. LOWE'S nor Craftsman will not accept a return or honor their warranty. It's a very sick feeling to throw away 300 dollars.

Great machine for the money,

Seems to be a great little machine. Easy to operate and provides plenty of power. My last Craftsman pressure washer lasted 21 years, so here’s hoping for another 21 years.
