After winter weather and spring pollen, your walkway, sidewalk, driveway, porch, siding and shed likely need a solid summertime scrub. While you could opt to outsource the job, the next time you want to clean, you’ll need to shell out for it again. Instead, reviewers are opting for this portable, electric pressure washer

Reviewers call it the “best money they ever spent,” saving them hundreds, if not thousands, on outdoor maintenance this summer and beyond.

Unlike bulky gas-powered washers, this 16.6-pound machine is easy to wield and doesn’t use any oil or give off any emissions. Outputting 2.5 gallons per minute with a claimed 4,200 pounds of pressure per square inch, it packs a punch for a smaller machine and is ideal for small to medium projects and residential settings.

In many cases, this one-buy machine costs reviewers less than a single professional treatment or machine rental. “I bought this for $119 after seeing a rental was $50 a day. I figured to buy it was a low-cost gamble,” shopper Ron wrote. “Gamble worked...Night and day. Easy to assemble and easy to operate. If you have a patio with wood or pavers…no brainer.”

“I needed to clean my sidewalk and curb, plus a 60 yard PVC fence in the back yard. Quotes ranged from $800 to $1100,” another said. “So I looked for a suitable pressure washer instead. Most electric units had less than 3000 psi and seemed kind of flimsy. This unit stands out, kudos to the designers, is rugged and did short work on my project with 4200 psi. Molds and fungus spots magically disappeared. Now I am looking for other areas to clean up.”
