Best pressure washer I have ever used.
published
Coming from an old Karcher k2, and purchasing, using then returning the new dewalt dxpw160we pressure washer and upgrading to the gerni 5300, it is a night and day difference. This product has just about as much power as i could ever need for a prosumer, almost weekly use. mainly cleaning muddy 4wds and subsequently the driveway after.
Start of with the initial impressions. The product is rather heavy 18kg (in a good way) and feels super solid. It requires all but 2 things to be installed: hose hanger and water coupler. Comings with a deterge...
Read morent nozzle and patio sprayer is a nice extra touch. Everything from the solid top and bottom handles inspires confidence and nothing flexes about and feels cheap. The attention to detail is second to none, especially with how both the water inlet and outlet are on the front, power cable has a rotating clip to hold the plug in place and fit and finish of handle is nice. onboard accesory storage is nice too. The pressure washer is amazing in operation. with a working psi of 1813psi(which is what really matters, not the max), its got power to do just about anything. The motor is really quiet and the noise it produces is a lower frequency hum than a high pitch whine that all other pressure washers have. It also seems to shut off as soon as you let of the trigger, not running on for an additional second or two. The water rushing out of the nozzle is louder than the motor. I love how the output hose just clicks in and pulls out without needing to unscrew a connector or anything like that. Where i believe the gerni is slightly let down is the accessory and nozzle situation. The nozzle has to click into the g4 lance and cant click directly into the g4 handle. This makes the handle extremely long and hard to get the right angle to clean underneath the car and wheel arches. However, this problem seems to be common with all washers. i wish they created an adapter to bypass the lance. The wide nozzle included is only 15degrees and the adjustment only adjusts the pressure, not the spray width. I have purchased the 60deg auto nozzle ($17 at bunnings) but have found it to be slightly too wide for my liking so i wish they had something in between, or better yet and adjustable one. The foam sprayer is more like a detergent dispenser as no thick foam comes out no matter what car washing foam you use. I have since converted my old ebay foam cannon from karcher to gerni and it works great. The jet spray and patio cleaner are wonderful to use and have no complaint there. I did weeks of research to replace my old dying and always underwhelming karcher k2. I knew i didn't want to go with a plastic pump housed karcher and it just didn't seem like the value was there compared to gerni in terms of power/$ and included accesories. I originally decided to give dewalt a go as it seemed to have more power than the gerni and im generally a fan of the brand. This was before i learnt about max psi vs working/rated/nom psi. Also, Just about everything had to be assembled on it (wheels, handle, all the holders) and after all the effort, the handles would flex around and the gun holder was not well though out at all. Ended up returning it and spent an extra $50 to upgrade to the gerni and very happy i made that choice. I also like how it comes with a 7 years warranty. Hopefully i will not have to use that but glad it's there just in case. I am a heavy user of pressure washers having multiple 4wds, MTBs, Dirt bikes and love a clean driveway too. I am very happy with this unit so far and don't see any other pressure washers that compare in terms of power value and build quality.Purchased in at Bunnings Warehouse for $448.
