Unsatisfactory,
May 24, 2008
By Anonymous Reviewer

"I wonder if I simply ended up with a defective unit? Within the first ten minutes of usage, mine stopped spinning, because one of the two nozzles no longer operated. What that meant was that all the water pressure (I was using a 2,350 PSI washer) came through one nozzle and I ended up with ugly gashes in my deck until I figured out what had happened and turned everything off.
Following the instructions, I removed and cleaned both nozzles (that's a bit of a chore, by the way) although I did not see any obvious blockages. I also switched to a new pressure washer (rated at 2,000 PSI). Within a few minutes the same thing happened. I cleaned them again, only to have the same thing occur.
I will say that Northern Tool was very good about things when I returned the unit.
FWIW, I have used other surface cleaners with my pressure washer without any problems."

11.5in Surface Cleaner,
April 22, 2008
By Under1Pressure

"I was not impressed wtih this product. I used a 2550psi machine at 2.3 gpm at my first and only attempt to use this product. After one pass I went over the same area with a turbo nozzle for test purposes. The turbo nozzle showed just what the surface cleaner didn't clean. I'm considering moving to a 3800psi machine w/ 4gpm but still having difficulty matching a good surface cleaner to the new purchase."

"This unit requires a lot of water. I have a well, with good water pressure. And it was having a hard time keeping up with the demand.
When I could get enought water to it...It worked great."

Great Product,
October 29, 2007
By gaisee

"I bought this product last week...it worked very well with my 2500 PSI pressure washer, and at 2.2 gpm, it got the job done farily quickly. It was very simple to use, and it worked very efficiently. If my pressure washer was up to par, and was in great working condition, I'm sure the job would have been even better. I truly think this is an amazing product, and I cannot wait to buy a bigger one, with a bigger machine of course."

"Great job on an already bad chore. No streaks left after the wash and operator (me) was drier than with just a wand."

Does More Than You'd Think,
July 10, 2007
By AlFromMO

"Pros: Works great on concrete, much faster and more even than using a single tip. Makes a good "broom" by tilting it up (creates a breeze and blows leaves and other trash). Cleans wooden decks, but you have to be careful to keep it moving on ceder. The weight is OK for horizontal use (keeps it down pretty well). Can use it for cleaning vertical siding (a bit heavy, but the castors come off easily, making it less bulky for this use). There is a brush-like skirt to keep some of the water from getting out, but you will get wet. Works great on vinyl fencing too.
Cons: Tends to rotate on end of the wand. Uses a fair amount of water (seems to keep my 8hp washer extra busy). A little too heavy for extended vertical use even with the wheels removed.
Overall: For occasional use it is very good for lots of jobs. Reasonable price."
