This NorthStar high-performance pressure washer combines the power of premium Honda GX engines with a long-life direct drive triplex pump for unsurpassed performance on tough cleaning tasks.
Good Product,

By Anonymous Reviewerfrom North Texas
"Bought this unit instead of a "box store" one because of the better Honda engine. It starts easily and after breaking it in for several hours, it runs strong. At first, the engine would "bog" down somewhat when the trigger was pulled. It would recover when released. Almost like the mixture was off. NOTE: I bought the Northern Tool pressure gauge to check the pressure and, guesss what - it is 3000 psi only when in bypass mode (the trigger isn't pulled). As soon as you pull the trigger, it drops to 2500 psi. I took it back to the NT store and had the mechanic look at it. He said that that was a characteristic of all pressure washers and that it was fine. I trust the guy, so I took it back home. It runs well and does a good job."

I could not ask for more for my money,
April 22, 2008
By BiGDeeZY316from Northern California
"I learned my lesson with the wholesale stores and their mass production pressure washers. I spent 500 bones on one that made me cringe everytime I used it.... I found Northern and for an extra 50 bucks than the first time I had reliablity, more power, and job security with a slice of piece of mind. It wont give you arm pump and you couldnt jack hammer concrete with it, but it more than you expect for the money"

"A great pressure washer for the money, a quality built product with a lot of great features. I compared other brands such as Dewalt and found the North Star to be a much better product."

Excellent Power for Decks,
April 21, 2008
By HappyStripperfrom Los Gatos, CA
"Delivered safe and secure, on time. I used this product for 8 hours straight on a jungle gym, tree house and our decks. The power was fantastic. Started on first pull; only needed to use the second most aggressive nozzle for the cedar and redwood. Can't wait to use it more. Highly recommend practicing on less visible wood first, to hone your technique, before using on a deck. I love this product, sure beats renting one every year."
