Real good but
Would RecommendThe hose holder is very cheaply made as well as the battery case which I fear will have a short life. Also the battery is just below where water could leak on it. Starts great.
if it starts.....
Would Not Recommendwe purchased this unit for the high PSI rating, right out of the box the unit would start on the first pull, but if you shut it down it would not restart after breaking your shoulder on the pull cord, you would have to let the unit cool off for 24 hours and then it would start on the first pull but don't shut it down because it will not restart for a full day, emailed Generac about the issues never heard back from them, emailed the company i purchased it from and nothing but crickets, called a d...

Electric Start is the way to go!!!
Would RecommendAfter having pull starts on previous pressure washers, I opted for the electric start. So easy and convenient. The unit has an pull start too - in case you didn't charge the battery.

The soap dispenser cap not good it leaks.
I like the white tip I get more work done with the white tip. The other tips doesn’t seem to have a good flow the soap dispenser cap. I do not like because fluid can run out of it if you’re not using it but other than that this is a great piece of equipment.

Not weathertight...
Would Not RecommendThe washer works fine, IF, you don't leave it out in the rain. The first time it got rained on it was hydro-locked! Water somehow found its way into the engine and blocked it up tight. I removed the plug, ran the starter, and sprayed a little oil into the cylinder. Again ran the starter... Then drained the crankcase oil and refilled it. I ran it until I was happy with the hot engine... Be sure to keep it dry!
