cost.
Bob, (et al,) I HATE most Husky stuff.
I DO carry their $7 pocket knife that uses a "craft"
(v common replaceable) blade. In fact, I have a dif color
for each of mu kids, and a black one I wear to formal occasions.
A man should carry a knife. A lady ought to have a 1" Victoria (?)
micro army knife. (It has scissors and tweezers, ladies...! ;>)
I might even borrow it!!! ;>)))
But the husky power washer, while low at ~1500 psi, and
NOT suitable for some tasks, is not terrible at $100.
And Bob? It takes about 1 sq ft. It sits upright, you'd say.
Need a big boy? THEN go rent one. It cleans a patio post-haste,
of leaves an. not ground in, marks. I did my 1951 sidewalk.
(Returning Korean Conflict 3-bedroom housing boom.)
I went DEAD-slow. You can see the difference, but a 3500psi unit
would do it 20x faster as well, or at 10x faster, a normal speed,
and a much better job.
Think of it as, you're retired. You now have a tiny pickup.
You CAN haul a new huge fridge home, it not a daily task.
I MAY get one of these... It is a ladies-knife, so-to-speak.
But it will suffice, if you've nothing but time, and don't take
on Godzilla. And at $100, it's sorta enough. it's sorta affordable,
if you want one.
To wash windows? For $17 get a cheap, 12ft extendable broomstick,
and mount a squeegee that has the broom-handle, paint roller threads.
Almost NEVER use a pressure washer to remove paint. Wet wood
takes weeks to dry if not in Phoenix etc. before you DARE paint.
