Not just neat, but a requirement !!!,

"I originally thought that it would be a nice addition to my 4000 psi power washer. But after I received this gauge and used it. I found that it should be a requirement to get this. I no longer have to guess what pressure I am running at, I don't have to try and remember how many turns to the left or right it is set it at. I just look at the gauge and dial in the pressure to match the tip or the job. Since I got this I no longer have any fears about putting to much pressure through my expensive turbo nozzle or wonder if I am going to take the paint off because of too much pressure.
I just turn on the motor, let it stabilize, then turn the adjustment up or down to match the job. I also found that if the pressure is not enough for a certain type of job I just bump up the pressure until I get the results I want. I then record the pressure setting for this type of job, then the next time I do this same type of job, I just set it the same pressure, "wha la", perfect pressure setting ...A BIG TIME SAVER."

Heavy duty and easy to read,

"This gauge is very nice, it is liquid filled so it absorbs vibration well. Large easy to read face and quick connect fittings make it very easy to disconnect when not in use. Would recommend to anyone to monitor the performance of their pump and nozzles."

Works but delicate,
June 22, 2008
"It works well, but is delicate. Mine worked great until I dropped it on the concrete. Nothing appeared physically broken, but the needle no longer points at zero when it's not in use, and the readings seem to be consistently off by about 1000psi post-drop. It's my fault for dropping it, obviously I broke something inside, but it would be nice if it were more heavy duty. Before the drop it worked well, gave consistent readings that seemed to be accurate judging by the ratings for my pressure washer. So it works great, just don't drop it."

It Can Take The Pressure,

By SrMechEngr from Gulf Coast
"You don't need to make any adjustments to your pump to appreciate the usefulness of this little device. The simplicity of installation and ability to protect the gauge has made this a must have product. I needed a gauge to help set the unloader pressure, but did not want to hard mount a gauge, since the vibration will eat it alive. The parts are of good construction and the gauge is easy to read, especially while the pump is operating and can be installed in the discharge line at a point of your selection. Virtually no maintenance other than occasional lubrication to prevent corrosion. I highly recommend this product."
