However, some users experienced issues with the product's durability, noting it stopped spinning or working properly after a short period of use.

Good Product

Would Recommend

Excellent cleaning tool for driveways and sidewalks. Cleans better with a 50' water hose or shorter. Anything longer it wont clean as good.

Gotta Pressure Washer? Gotta Have One!

Would Recommend

This thing cuts surface pressure washing time by 2/3rds. A much more even cleaning than your standard spray nozzles. Fantastic for concrete and pavers. Only drawback is you have to use a regular nozzle or hose to rinse off al the dirt when you're done, but it's worth it.

No problems with plugged jets

Would Recommend

I was happy that the jets on my surface cleaner did not get plugged. I did have to return the first one that I got because the brush around the perimeter was coming off. The product works great does what I wanted on my patio and driveway.

Time saver

Would Recommend

For the price it's worth every penny. It cover more area then just using the nozzle that come with your pressure washer. Which save so much time pressure washing the driveway and sidewalks. So far I used it once but am pleased that it work and I didn't feel like I was ripped off since it worked great. If your a home owner that lives in a HOA do yourself the favor if you pressure wash your own drive way and sidewalk buy this product.

As easy as vacuuming a rug!

Would Recommend

Anyone who doesn't have this attachment is missing out. Took 3 hours of drudgery with a standard wand and reduced it to 1. Saves on water big time. It does take a little touch up with the standard nozzle around edges and posts.

Reduce the time and effort

Would Recommend

I picked this up based on recommendations on this site. I am so glad that I did. Before it would take me a very long time to clean my sidewalk. With this attachment you can clear a 14 inch wide section at a slow walk. It took me less than 10 minutes to do a job that before took me over an hour. If you plan on doing sidewalk, driveway, or deck cleaning this is worth the investment. I also used it to clean some very stubborn brick sections on my house. The first image shows the difference b...

This is a wonderful piece of equipment

We were at our wits end- sweeping and mopping were not getting our concrete floor clean, this allowed us to pressure wash in the finished basement!!!

cuts cleaning time in half

Would Recommend

It use to take a couple of hours to clean by back patio, walkway and driveway. Only took me a half hour to clean off a 15'x15' patio. Took just over an hour to do my walkway and drive. The only problem I came across was on the area where my drive is not slanted. The water would tend to pool in those area, but if you sweep or tilt the head to act as blower to move the water that worked. I also took it to my sons house to clean off his carport and driveway plus the side walk. Again it took me ver...

Longer handle would be nice

Would Recommend

I got this to do our patios. I had never done them before and estimated 10 to 20 hours using the standard power washer tips. It took me less than 4 hours with this. A real time and water saver. It would be nice if the head had a attachment to lengthen the handle. The power washer is designed to hold away form the surface and this in right on the surface so you have bend a little. After 4 hours you start to notice it. Minor issue. I did not have any issue with the jets plugging like some mentio...

very poor durability

Would Not Recommend

I purchased a new B&S Troy Bilt 3000PSI pressure washer from Lowe's and one of these surface cleaners, loved them both for about an hour, when the surface cleaner quit rotating. Nothing seemed to work to make it rotate, took it back to Lowe's and returned it and purchased another one, well it worked for about 4 hours total and now it does not rotate, they are worthless if they do not rotate. it is really a hardship to have to stop what you are doing drive 25 miles to exchange these, they are not...

Great addition to pressure washer

Would Recommend

The rotating surface cleaner does a much better job cleaning patio and driveway surfaces than the straight pressure washer. Very inexpensive for the results!

Cleaner works, just a few issues

Would Recommend

Bought one of these last week to clean my driveway. If you buy one, more than likely, you will have to buy the wand extension kit (which I did) that will add another $40 to the overall purchase price. I used it on my driveway and it works OK but it's a little problematic trying the keep the wand in the correct orientation without lifting the leading edge off of the pavement. All of this is simply due to the quick connect goose neck that I had to use as part of the extension. There really needs t...

Worked for 5 minutes

Would Not Recommend

Hook this up to my pressure washer this afternoon to clean thew driveway. Worked great, cleaned well for about 5 minutes. Then it froze and stopped spinning. Loosened the hex screw and took it apart, reassembled it, and it would spin a few revolutions and freeze up again. I spent more time messing with it that I did pressure washing. Poor quality. Will return and try some other brand from that other depot store.

Power washer attachment

Would Recommend

unbelievable. I've been power washing my pool deck, front stoop and concrete drive for seven years using a wand that came with my power washer. Then I recently saw the Briggs and Stratton attachment. I purchased it. It cut my time in half. That means less fuel for the washer, less time and less exhaustion. I was astonished at how easily it cut through the mildew that grows on our southern deck every year. At this savings I will probably do those areas at least twice a year instead of just once.

Great product for the price

Would Recommend

I recently purchased this Surface Cleaner cause I have A LOT of concrete that needs to be cleaned. When I first hooked it up to my (2800 psi) pressure washer I was blown away at how clean it was getting my concrete but I quickly noticed that I did not like how the brush would "grab" the concrete and constantly interfere with any type of smooth movements I was trying to create. I decided that I needed to modify this contraption and make it more stable and easier to glide across the concrete. So b...

Great product

Would Recommend

I purchased the Briggs rotating surface cleaner and love it. I used it to clean my 5 rib white metal roof. I also purchased the 18' extension wand which enabled me to clean 90% of the roof from the ground or on a ladder. A lot safe for a 71 year old. By the way it does a great job on concrete driveways and walks as well as stucco walls. It is fast and effective. The pressure helps to move the cleaner much like a helicopter when used with a short extentsion. Well worth the price.afte using mine m...

Why Didn't I Buy This Before Now?

Would Recommend

As part of a Christmas gift for my mother, we promised to pressure wash her patio and LARGE driveway. We started off using just the regular attachments with my Troy Built 2800 PSI pressure washer. After about an hour cleaning the very heavily soiled driveway 2 inches at a time, we realized that we'd be there til NEXT Christmas before we got done. Unfortunately, she lives in a small town with no Lowe's, so we drove about 25 miles to buy this product (and paid a few dollars less than the price lis...

Does not last

Would Not Recommend

I purchased this to clean my large driveway & sidewalk. After cleaning twenty feet it stopped spinning, after a search on good old google I had to clean the jets. This worked a treat. THEN the unit started to slow down and and would not clean properly. I contacted Biggs & Stratton and got the usual corporate reply, "no serviceable parts, 90 day warranty, return to store". I am out of warranty so I guess I will have to take this on the chin and buy a replacement. Note the replacement will not be ...
