So I've been in the market for a pressure washer..decided on a Simpson 3200,but since I'm not gonna need it much,I've decided to do a Westinghouse 3200.Price was a main factor in case I manage to mess it up,and I will.Simple easy to use.Plenty of power.What say you all?

Actually,you are 100% correct!!!! But I was looking for like-minded folk who may have OWNED 1 for recommendations or demerits before I pay for it.

Depending how often and where you intend to use it, I would take a look a the electric pressure washers. Because mine never goes more than 25’ from the building, I’ve found it the best fit for me, as I don’t worry about gas engine upkeep, just plug and go.

Got the WPX 3200.Nicely built. Looks like a toy. It's not!!! Plenty of power. Easy to assemble, and even easier to use. Takes a whole gallon tho'.Best $300 i've spent in a while. Notwithstanding my Stihls.

Had this equipment for 2 years and it works,and runs superbly.Heres what I have noticed...in maintaining this unit,it's hard to get at the spark plug if you don't have a deep socket.Therein lies my problem.I can't find ANY info on what size socket to get.Anyone have this same unit? WPX 3200.

I solved my dilemma.The old spark plug wrenches I've had over the years came through.I fit 1 end into the other, and the holes in them gave me length and leverage

needing a plug already? Usually they last a long time on a pressure washer unless they are out in the rain and snow.
