What Customers Are Saying
The Craftsman pressure washer appears to have mixed performance and reliability. While some customers were satisfied with its power and ease of use, many reported issues with the unit starting, running for only short periods, and eventually failing completely. The main concerns were around the engine, which many found difficult to start and prone to shutting off unexpectedly. Several customers also experienced leaks, oil/gas mixing, and other mechanical problems. When the pressure washer did work, customers found it to have good power and pressure, but the overall reliability and longevity of the unit appears questionable based on the high number of reports of early failures.

Would RecommendThis has worked flawlessly and performed as expected.
Absolutely horrible
Would Not RecommendHad this just over 3 months when engine locked up. Lowes refused to replace because we were a few days outside of our o0 day window and I have to wait a year before there extended warranty kicked in(thanks for nothing. took it to a Craftsman authorized repair shop and 4 months later still nothing because they are waiting on an engine that's on back order.
Junk right of the box
Would Not RecommendGas pours out the bottom of carburetor, pump does not work at all. Junk!!! No quality control at all.

I thought I was upgrading! I've had less than (5) uses within 16 months and now the pump will not allow water to pass. DO NOT BUY this unit. I'm going back to using my little electric Ryobi pressure washer.
DO NOT BUY!
Would RecommendI've had this pressure washer for less than 2 years. Used maybe 10 times. Garage kept, etc. I went to use today, and a seal or something cracked and let oil and gas mix. The engine is dead. The engine has a 3 year warranty, PERFECT.... not. You call Craftman and they pawn off the the warranty because "craftman" didnt make it. Its briggs and straton. Call them and they dont offer any customer service and tell you to contact a local deal. Contact a local dealer.... they arent licensed to do warran...

Bought pressure washer a year and a half ago and will not start. I have kept it sheltered and maintained it, it looks like new. I have only used it 3 times and it refuses to start, tried carburetor cleaner and still nothing. Very disappointed in craftsmanship thought craftsman built quality, not happy. Customer service is non responsive , this unit is garbage. Tried going to lowes to return and they referred me to customer service, called and after going through a lot of info hung up on me, cust...
Wouldn’t pump water after 3 uses.
Would Not RecommendUsed pressure washer 3 times and would not pump water after that. Took back to Lowe’s and they refused to warranty it. Whole situation sucked. Spent $349.00 and now have no pressure washer. Won’t buy Craftsman again or shop at Lowe’s either.
Purrs like a kitten
Would RecommendAbility to adjust the pressures with every tip is great. This unit is much quieter than others in the same price range. The gas in the tank lasts longer and easy to pull start.

Didn't work
Would Not RecommendThe Briggs & Stratton motor failed to start brand new out of the box. Plug did not spark, looks like a shoddy magneto is the culprit. All in all, not happy.
poor quality
Would Not RecommendI bought one of these pressure washers 1.5 years ago. It worked great for a about 10 months. The pump busted and there was water in the head. It was replaced with a new one. Now 7 months after i used it twice, the pump went out. Lowes refunded my money so that was a plus.
Buy this pressure washer. works well!
Would RecommendEasy to put together when arrived.

Junk junk junk
Would Not RecommendWorked good for the first couple times then it just shut off. It's got gas, air and spark, oil is fine carb is clean. Can't find receipt so I'm out 350 bucks. Thanks for nothing briggs and stratton
It doesn’t stay run it doesn’t want to start
Assembly Included??
Would RecommendThe Power Washer itself is great. It works perfectly, however, the “Assembly Included” apparently does not mean “completely” assembled. The crankcase and gas tank were completely dry, which indicates the engine had not been tested. The spark plug was only hand tight which allowed compression to leak out. I specifically asked the clerk if the washer was ready to use and if the engine had been tested, and I was assured it had been. Needless to say, I was very disappointed with my local Lowe’s...
