Ratings & Reviews for Briggs & Stratton Rotating Surface Cleaner

Must Have Item for Every Pressure Washer Owner!!!

In a word this item is (MARVELOUS)!!! Let me give some background first. I'm a workaholic and far from a lazy guy. However, when it came to pressure washing the driveway or porch I hated doing the work. I felt like Forrest Gump did when he had to brush an entire military floor with a toothbrush! The pressure washer covered such a small area. Then I was soaked afterwards from the blowback and there was always lines or spots missing after a couple of hours. I literally cleaned the entire driveway ...

best purchase in a long time!

So far I've used this thing for about 8 running hours and it is GREAT! I've cleaned a large cement pool deck, walk way, porch and 100'+ driveway. I recommend using a 45 degree angled wand at the end of a 36" wand (see picture). This helps the surface cleaner hover as it is meant to, instead of the user pushing down with a straight wand. It does take a little bit of effort to figure out the best way to go about using this thing. Such as when you pull back, it helps to lift the gun (just slightly...

Very Happy...

I will keep this short...I bought this when it was on sale and then I searched for a coupon code and purchased it online... I cleaned the side walk, driveway, and porch... I was very happy with it... The results were fantastic.. I did a much better job than using just the wand by itself... I wish I had purchased it earlier but I just could not fathom this simplistic device would really make that much of a difference.. But, It did ! It is well worth the money...

Cleans flat surfaces fast

I cleaned my driveway, patio, and pool deck in 85% less time than using the single nozzle that came with the pressure washer. I used this with a 3000 psi washer. I did have to clean out one of the nozzles that got trash in it when the unit would not turn.

A must have when pressure washing a driveway

Within seconds of using it you'll be blown away. Cuts the time in half of pressuring washing a driveway. I started pressure washing my driveway without it, then picked up one the following day and it's like night and day. In one pass it does almost a 12 inch wide strip. It's like using a vacuum cleaner. It's as simple as that.

Far exceeds expectations... saves a TON of time

This works exceptionally well. Have used it twice and extremely impressed with the outcome and the amount of time it saved. Cannot imaging power-washing a driveway or concrete patio without this surface cleaner.

Wonderful Product

Picked this up at my local store the other day on sale, great price. This tool really works well. Cleaned part of the pool deck with the standard gun and then switched to this cleaner. Wow, it took off dirt and stains that the pressure washer was not getting off. Re-did the portion of the deck done with the gun and this got it 1 1/2 shades brighter and cleaner. This tool is wonderful and cut about 50% of the time off the job. If you thinking about buying one don't hesitate, it's superb.

Excellent rotating surface cleaner

This is the second surface cleaner I purchased; the first was a cheaper ~$30 unit from a different big-box store (though Lowe's also carries a similar inexpensive product). It had a plastic rotating arm and plastic bushing that just didn't work well. It'd spin good for about 5-10 minutes, then it'd quit spinning. This seems to be a common issue with these in general, and is probably more prevalent in the cheaper units. I took a chance on this one this weekend, and I must say that I'm impressed. ...

Trust me. This works!!!!

The Rotating Surface Cleaner worked like a champ. Based on the reviews, I expected the product to work, but I had tempered my expectations thinking something so simple would have trouble with the seven years of accumulated grime and dirt around my pool. After spending five hours cleaning half the concrete without the product, I gave in and made the trip to Lowes. I am so glad I did! The Rotating Surface Cleaner reduced the second half to maybe an hour....or less!!! it is safe to say that the pro...

One of my better buys

Big time saver, nice and clean and no streaks. I used it on my pool deck and was able to get within an inch of the pool edge without any mess getting in, It keeps the "waste pretty contained. I'm 6'2" and didn't have a problem with the length of the wand as it was really easy to maneuver with one hand. As someone else mentioned you will have to use the standard wand after you're done to "sweep" the dirty water off the surface. I don't see any reason why this thing wouldn't last a long while

This is perfect for anywhere you need to power wash with drywall or not pushing all the debris into a pool. If you have a very heavy buildup of moss and mildew on your sidewalks and driveway this item will get you about 70% there, and then you just have to spot power wash with the wand. This item is not a recommended attachment but a necessity if you are a home owner. I do wish there was more power from it, but I used a 2800PSI washer and it did the job very well.

excellent and a time saver

In bought two of these one for myself and one for a gift. It is great. A real time saver and does a great job. Definitely recommend!

A Real Time Saver When Power Washing The Driveway

This rotating surface cleaner takes the work out of power washing a driveway with a pressure washer, saving time and effort.

A Great Idea

I bought this item on the recommendation of a friend who had just used it to clean his walks and garage. I bought one this morning and attached it to a 2800 psi pressure washer. I first used it to clean some muddy tire tracks on my asphalt driveway. It was amazing how well it cleaned and how fast. I then moved on to a concrete parking pad and started cleaning. All of a sudden it started making streaks and I noticed it wasn't turning at high speed. I thought something had seized up. I turned the ...

My favorite purchase of the year

I have a large pool deck and pressure washing takes forever, until I found this gem! WOW....you will not believe, no chemicals, just attach to the quick connect wand and fire up the pressure washer. I cleaned a 12X30ft area in less than 20 mins. AMAZING....no streaks. Saves time, saves, money, saves WATER, less mess! This will pay for itself in one season!

a great product!

First, I don't normally write reviews but after using this all day to clean my driveway, sidewalk, and deck, I have to say this is a great product. The rotating spray head holds everything up like a hover craft so its very easy to operations and sweep back and forth. Didn't need a wand extension (I'm 5' 10"). Makes quick work of what used to be a dreary job. Dont settle for the cheaper units- this is well worth every penny!

Very Fast but poor quality

This product works great on my concrete driveway and sidewalks but all the "V" bristles on the side are falling out! I find them all over the driveway when I finish and there are large gaps in mine now and I only used it 4-5 times for maybe 45 minutes each time. Overall though it cleans great but I''m thinking that I'll only get about 15-20 uses out of it and then I'll have to toss it. It took a 3-4 hour driveway job and turned it into about 45 minutes--AND with a LOT less back strain and it loo...

You have to get it if cleaning a drive way

I was hesitant about getting it for $69 dollars but glad I did. Wish it was a little less expensive. I cleaned my drive way in half the time. It is easy to use. I have read that the spraying tips get clogged but I did not have that problem. You have to get it if you are cleaning flat surfaces like the drive way. It is east to use and quick. Go get one you will not be disappointed. Also I am tall I would recommend getting an extension for your pressure washer.

Worked great until...

Like many of the other negative reviews it worked perfectly out of the box... I was amazed at how quickly and evenly it cleaned my driveway... then I got interruped for a few minutes and when I went to resume working it wasn't spinning, It was clear that both of the nozzles were clogged.. so I took it apart, and using a pin was able to unclog it and reassembled it it worked fine although I had to tweak the angles of the nozzles to get it right after reassembling. Overall I'm pretty mechanically ...
