I’ve been looking to buy another electric pressure washer after my harbor freight Portland blew apart during hurricane Ida. Either way it was either this, the craftsman, or the ryobi and after seeing different videos on the the other 2 I’m sold on this one and the quick connects. Love the video bro. Plenty of info with style lol. Thanks

This is a peace of junk.. Don't buy this junk if you have a big home..you can not run it for hours at a time it will get hot and stop working...

Former Lowes employee. Just so you know if you go in store and an item in store has a higher price than online it is most likely just the tag has not been changed. If the product has the same item # as the one online, just show your store associate that listing and the matching product numbers and they will honor the online price.
Edit - you did actually say that....i just had to listen to it a twice to hear it
Thank u so broski👍🏼...never knew that one..will use
This is one of the best narrated vids I’ve seen in a while. Thanks for sharing.
Agree. Wish he would voice 99% of CZcams vids! Sounds honest, legit, rational and just silly enough to not be boring yet easy to listen to. Good job.
Just thanks very much for the excellent video. I bought this pressure washer and then bought a shorter gun to use with a soap cannon (awkward having a pint of water hanging out at the end of the long stock wand). I am very happy with both. The quick-connects are an excellent accessory. Although I am somewhat mechanically inclined, I would have never figured out which quick-connect parts go where without re-viewing your video. Much appreciated.
Thanks Aaron, definitely one of the best review videos out there, for any product!
Really well done review. You covered so many things. Thanks a lot!
Thanks for your help with the assembly it worked like a charm.
Thank you so much for this video! Our small, 1650 psi electric pressure washer from Walmart finally died after 18 years. It served it's purpose well (kept our front porch and back patio clean) but we were ready for an upgrade. My dad has a gargantuan, gasoline model out on his farm if we ever needed that much power, but for us, another easy-to-care-for electric one was really all we wanted. I started my research but didn't know which to choose - there are SO many on the market - all coming with their own set of positive and negative reviews. You did an awesome job covering all the important points about a pressure washer: build, fittings, materials, etc. I decided to go with this model based on your real-life review. It was delivered just today. Yes! The hose IS much, much better than many out there and I love that the on-board storage hooks are large enough to accommodate what they are storing! This homeowner is VERY grateful for videos just like this! Thank you!!
Awesome! Glad to hear it helped.
Very very good review! I feel good about this purchase. It's a Father's Day gift so wanted to make sure he would love it!
Keep in mind, the 15 amp / 120v motor size is selected to keep from tripping the average household breaker (which is typically 20 amps) on the start surge current or if you have some household items on the same circuit.
Thank you for this o was skeptical while in the store but it looks good for what I need ...also that’s a nice house!
Thank you for putting together the well explained review video. Covered all my questions. :)
I purchased this very unit from LOWES and I love it. I’ve used it on the exterior of my house, my deck and fencing, and my automobile. It runs must quieter than my previous gas operated. Michael B.
I’m gonna pick one up tomorrow. They got them going for $120 rn
I'm at 2 mins, I subscribed, clear concise and well explained. I could not believe that the front panel and the tips are not mentioned in the book together. I did not want to put this thing together until I knew all it's parts due to previous isdues with other washers. Tx and I will still watch your whole video. Blessings to the journey and good health for all. Ps- if one does not pay attention and puts the handle on backwards it's a real pain pulling off that panel, the issues of being a tired old busy granny.
Great video! It helped me decide to purchase this model. You review was spot on! Great power washer for home use. And yes, the hose and power cord is a pain in the butt
So do you recommend this pressure washer? Thinking about getting one of these.
@@alejandrohermosillo3287 yes, for home use it is great
I want to thank you for the in-depth review. In my opinion, it is one of the best reviews and explanations I have seen. Greenworks should hire you to review all of their new models. It would be a big benefit to them, plus it would fill your garage with a great many new tools to your inventory. I am a retired international marketing guy and I do know from where I speak. Thanks again, I ordered it today!
Outstanding tutorial and cleverly presented!
Dude…this was a WELL done video. Thanks. Bought one and the quick connects suggested.
I bought one today - 8/15/20 at Lowes for $199.00, and i also bought an 11 inch surface cleaner and everything is still in the box. thanks for the video of setting everything up. It will make my life easier on the setup.
Have you used the surface cleaner yet? And if so do you like the tool?
Excellent review thank you very much I think you just made my decision for me after reviewing several similar electric pressure washers I'm headed to Lowe's :-) Thanks again
Great video. Now I just need get the kit and foamer. I already got my washer. Thanks.
Great overview. Thanks much.
I can’t tell you about the greenworks pressure however I have used the incredible Ryobi 2000psi with amazing results! I can highly recommend it!!
Very helpful! Thanks!
In your defense, I did the EXACT same thing with my hand in the 15/25 degree nozzles, and with the turbo nozzle...same results as well. That turbo nozzle stung just a weeee bit lol! I too tried it twice LMAO!!! I'm using the Kawasaki Ninja 2000 from Menards.
I use a 3500psi Hotsy on the semi's, one doesn't dare put your fingers in front of that, you'll lose some digits. It's got serious snort. I think they delivered the 5k psi unit I was dealing on, as it keeps destroying my 3k psi hoses.
Anyhoo, I use a foamer with the Hotsy on the trucks. I did try the lil soap dispenser and black nozzle on the car today for the first time. It works pretty good and as designed. It actually foamed up really well. That foam gun though, as you stated, that's a good time :)
Fun video to watch!
Excellent review! Thank you!
This is an awesome video! I followed the recommendations and I am glad that I invested in a Greenworks 2000PSI pressure washer. I own a 9,605 square feet property...I was able to save time and water when cleaning.
Awesome. Glad it helped.
GREAT REVIEW!!!
Thank you for a very useful instruction video. I especially appreciate that you get to the point, and use a real camera (not your cell phone). The links are a great help.
Great video! for low pressure what tip dod you use? or which do you use for high pressure? Thank you. amazing video.❤
$139 at Costco and has a higher quality hose. The nozzles on opposing sides is great and avoids hose intertangling. Smart design.
Great Review. I use the round brush attachment and it is a game changer.
Excellent work!!
video was helpful for unboxing, set up thx. tip: demo this on a ligher surface that needs cleaning, that can show the product's removal of the debris, that part was useless. comparing tips as other videos have on a dirty surface would show effectiveness.
My Karcher is 3-year Parts & Labor on motors, pumps, handles, frame, structural components, electrical components, & switches. 90-days on Accessories.
I will say this Greenworks GPW-2000 is amazing and if something happens to my Karcher K1700, I’m going to buy this one.
Great review!
Very well done review. Could you review the built in soap dispenser ?
Excellent Video Dude !! thanks will buy one
Fantastic review work, thank you sir
Thanks, appreciate it
I have several Greenworks products and am generally happy with them. Any Intel on how the power washer works on cleaning decks as prep for staining,
very very nice review. Big thumb up for the excel sheet
Excellent review 👍
I just purchased one from Lowe’s…on sale for $149.00
Very good video, you have me thinking of the hose connects
They're nice, especially if you use the machine regularly.
And by the way thank you for making this video. My dad says he’s going to get this one he returned to clean up his nail guns by the way when I watch this video I will better understand on how to set up this machine
I bought this washer today. I'm completely satisfied. Feels solid, performs great, standard fittings, hose doesn't easily kink, PWMA certified and it isn't very loud. The only minor complaint I have is where the top handle clips into the bottom part of the handle. That joint is a little shaky. It was 250 for me. I bought it from lowes. I also bought quick disconnects and a 50 foot hose.
I know exactly what you mean with regards to the handle attachment, but thought it was so minor that it wasn't even worth a mention in the video. Hopefully you bought the quick disconnects on Amazon. I noticed they were about 3x the price at Lowes. Same story with extra/replacement tips.
great video. thank you!
Really good stuff here my friend. I will be using your purchase links, thank you very much
Sun Joe SPX 3200- was less than $150 shipped and its more compact/portable. It also has 2030PSI vs GW’s $179 unit with less PSI. I did buy GW’s Surface Cleaner to be used with my SJ PW and it works better than the one SJ makes. Lol.
Hey Aaron, do you have a link to the type of cleaning products you use for car washes? Thx!
Good video and good idea about Lowe's price matching themselves, But my 3000p psi unit was the same price online as in the store, darn it. My new 14-Amp Greenworks 3000 psi pressure washer has a 2-prong power cord, is there any reason why I can't plug it into a 3-prong 12 Amp extension cord that is 10 ft long?.
Thanks for a great review. I'm looking fir a unit that I can use on my patio blocks and pool coping. Is this strong enough to get mold and other stains off concrete?
Mold, yes. Other stains, I guess it would depend on how far they're penetrated the concrete.
Pretreat stains with dawn and Clorox mixed. Let sit on the stain a couple of hours.
Hi Aaron
Lowes heads this now for 179.
I see this review is 2 years old.
R u still a fan of it?
Should I consider a different model?
Don't want to spend more than 225.
Thanks
How were your fingers not hurt by the pressure?? I have a pressure washer with the exact same specs although it’s much quieter, it’s a Royobi 2000PSI at 1.2GPM and I accidentally cut myself when my hand was to close. I was using a 40 degree nozzle.
Get some 3.0 orifice spray nozzles and it’ll help get the water flow up a bit for rinsing!
Hey seattlite!! Thanks for the info, I'm in seattle too.
Great video!
Thanks
Thanks for the video...
how many quick connects do i need if i want to make sure that all hoses, gun, garden hose, etc all have a quick connect on? and what size are they as i thought they were 1/4 inch
I bought mine at the local lowes in Bartlett Tennessee. I've used it about 4 times, and last nite I pulled it out, and I think it did something to the unit gfi. When I tried to start it back up, nothing... i have a green power light and water pressure, but no pump. I changed recepts, gfi tests and resets but still nothing. Any ideas?
Thank you for the excellent and concise review. Can you please post the link to the quick disconnect on Amazon? I can't find it on this thread. Thank you.
Just added a pinned comment with them. Thanks.
Per A-aron's recommendations, i got this thing for $159! 80 bucks less than elsewhere. Thanks man!
Any recommendations on electric pressure washers for commercial use?
So you world recommend this over the GW 2300 for residential use?
Awesome job! I was going to pay someone to pressure wash my house!
Thanks it was very good
Bought mine today at lowes 80$ off for 4th of July sale. Insanley good! Amazing buy!
Right on. Glad to hear people are working the sales on these. They seem to go back and forth between 159 and 239 pretty often.
Great review! My concern would be where the inlet hose connects. It looks like it's sticking out enough where it could possibly get bent by accident or by it getting pulled on.
That was a concern of mine as well. But so far, so good.
Thank u!
I like it too
Thanks for the video. I know it’s an old video but I need a pressure washer as I’m tired of paying $20 to wash my car every week and it still be covered in dirt and water spots and they tend to forget about maintenance and forget concentration ratios for the high pressure soap. I was in between this one and the Bauer one but it seems like you like this one better. Is that still true since it’s been some time since this video or can you recommend a better at the same price point?
Hard to say if there's a better one or not. That said, I still really like this unit, and I'm a fan of the accessories/hose Greenworks provides.
Hi I think we left the switch on . So before I turned the water line, the pump started. Now I am not getting water at all. What could be the issue? I searched couple of videos it shows unloader valve. I am not able find one on this model.
This is fantastic video information. I just stumbled upon and I subscribed immediately. Please I want to buy two electric pressure washer for my carwash business for commercial use. Which capacity of the psi will you recommend.
I'll appreciate your quick response.
Thanks.
I just bought my 3100 psi / 2.4 gam from Costco!!
Hey Aaron,
I picked up the GPW2006 yesterday and took advantage of the ebay coupon (thanks Charlie!) I'm also looking at the shorty gun/foam cannon you use. It's rated for 2.0GPM
and above. Have you had any problems using with the lower GPM of the Greenworks pressure washer? Thanks!
I have not had any problems. However, the caveat to that statement is that I've never used a foam cannon on a higher-powered gas unit to compare. In other works, it might work perfect or it might work just ok and I don't know any better, lol.
Michael if your using the foam cannon to wash your car change the orifice in the foam cannon to a 1.1 and put the water in the bottle before the soap and you should get shaving cream foam!
@@akaredcrossbow Thank you!
The placement of the water inlet & outlet are indeed not user friendly. But apparently this only complaint does not compromise its being the best band for the buck. Like the look & performance of the beefy 2700 but this 2006 is enough for my need. Why you use another foaming gun instead of the one on the unit?
Great video my friend
Don't know if I missed it but you didn't use the soap dispenser but you did use the foam cannon.
If you use the soap dispenser you don't need the foam cannon The kind of do the same thing.
I LOVED IT
Can you use this unit without a water hose and use it with a bucket of water.
I purchased one this past Saturday that has the surface cleaner tool ... do you have a video for the surface cleaner tool?
Not specifically. Did a video on the SunJoe SPX3001 where I use it though.
Can I use soap for this? If yes, what kind?
That is a bad ass house! I am considering doing some mobile detailing part time. Do you think this would be a good power washer to you several times a week for that?
Thanks man. Yeah, I think it'd work well for some mobile detailing action. And that three year warranty should cover you if it acts up.
If mobile, I would choose a gas powered one. Just in case you dont have access to an electric plug
Does it shut off completely when not pulling the trigger? BTW thank you for the GREAT review!
Yes it does
Just got it for $159 from Lowes. Great review. Beautiful house.
Thanks! $159 is a great price. I've never seen it for less than $179.
It's back up to $179 now and they've got a "NEW LOWER PRICE" graphic on it. ???
@@DarkSeraph351 -- Misleading marketing at its best.
It’s $199 on the web site now
Its 50 bucks in june 2020. 75% off
I have one of these several years old. Now it cuts on and off with the 25 degree tip, but works fine with the 40 degree tip. Does anyone know what could be wrong?
have you compared the Greenworks to sunjoe pressure washers
Aaron. Good review. I'm looking at the same model, but I have a question....Lowe's has two 2000 psi Greenworks models. The $159 one you review, and another that is $199. They look differently but the specs seem to be the same. Any idea what the difference is? Thanks! BTW, like you, I'll be using mine to wash my '18 Toyota Tacoma !
Hard to say exactly what the difference is. Like you said, specs are similar. I did notice the GPW2006 (one in this vid) has a 14 amp (claimed) motor vs 13 amp on the $199 one. On the other hand, I like the fact the other one (GPW2000-1) has the water inlet/outlet on the same side of the machine. Works great for Tacoma washes BTW. Been using my foam gun with a high-pressure rinse weekly. I no longer hate the chore!
Thanks! I’m not as troubled by the hose placement, so I’ll save $40 and use it toward the fittings and foam cannon. I’m looking forward to cleaning the truck without the hassle!
Cool man, I think you'll be happy with it. Might also consider doing what that other guy(in these comments) suggested and finding a $20 off Lowes coupon and bringing it down to $139.
looks cool but seems to have a needlessly big footprint, does the front soap container need to be way out that far, guess they were going for stability.
Did the soap container that comes with it not work?
question i just got mine today and accidentally ran it without water connected do you think i messed it up? it doesnt seem like it has that much power. when i first pull the trigger i get no kickback at all like i thought i would
Hard to say. Definitely not supposed to be run without water. But I myself have done that a couple times accidentally. If you're worried just take it back and buy a new one.
I have the exact same one and it was only 160 at lowes.
Hello, sorry, could you help me, please, I'm from Mexico. I have the same pressure washer, but I had a problem with it when turning it on. The machine stopped performing the automatic stop and now continues working. I tried to find out if it was a fault in the valve, but the spring came out. tripped and now I don't know what the correct order is to assemble the pressure valve. Could you please help me with a photograph of what it looks like on your machine? greetings from Mexico
Hi Aaron
Just picked this GPW2006 up can you tell me if the valve you used for the soap on the craftsman review will work on this model?
Thanks
Pete
Yes it will, currently have them installed on bith
@@aaronstestlab thanks for answering my questions and the review of them pressure washers.
I ordered the foam cannon and quick connected thru the links you provided.
Cool beans, thanks for the support.
looks like a good one for car washing, not too strong. Buying this from costco so I can return it if needed
Costco is good like that
How do you get the soap out?
Would this take out oil stains on my parking place?
This is quite a good little pressure washer. I've had mine for a week. So far I've washed 3 vehicles, 1 a lifted ram, stripped off our deck for staining, pressure washed a sidewalk that had years of crud built up and pressure washed our storage building. All items cleaned very well and not one issue with the washer. If you have plenty hose to supply it and an extra long extension cord you can't go wrong with this little machine.
So based on your experience would you recommend it for all around uses such as mobile detailing, sidewalks and driveways, as well as for houses?
@@dwightd9939 I would as it worked quite well around my house.
@@corporal2011 cool thanks
DO NOT PLUG IN or TURN ON until you have run the faucet hose and pressurized the unit for 30 seconds..and that you have full water flow..before turning on.
But I LOVE IT. It was so satisfying removing hard moss and other tar and dirt off stone pavers...in seconds.. Cleaning my Linai takes me only 15 min now.
How do you get the soap to work ? Nothing sucking up , just water going tight thru
Need to use the soap tip. The high-pressure tips won't work.
There are really high quality plastics out there, I wish he did not mention it as often in this review for most likely the unit itself will go bad long before the plastics break, even if you were to leave it outside to deteriorate.
Just bought one. Brining it right back. Pump continually cycles on/off and nozzle tips leak .
