Got an electric power washer and I am loving it. [View all]

Last week I got an estimate to have my pool deck, front walk and driveway done. Thought it was a bit expensive so I looked into buying my own.

Spent most of the afternoon (off and on) doing my pool deck, gas grill & cover, deck & patio furniture and even the cushions. Kind of addicting to tell you the truth, I'd probably still be out there but needed to get dinner on and my hand is cramping due to holding the wand.

Oh yeah, and it works well on windows without any chemicals not to mention those damn mud wasp nests.

Tomorrow, I'm going to do the dog crates and maybe the walkway. Since it's only 1600 PSI it's safe to use on my car. So maybe that will be Wed project.

Anyone else have one? Any other good ideas for them?
