For electric, go $150 to $200. They're all relatively equal at that price point.

I got a Greenworks electric from Lowes, it was a Memorial day sale. So, the $200 version was $150. It will take paint off of concrete, if you spend enough time on it.

I cleaned the driveway, several hours a day, 2 days a weekend for 5 weekends. Probably 40 hours run time, and it never skipped. Since then, 2 years of general use and it's still perfect.

I added brass quick release connectors, a circular floor cleaner, and a foam cannon to wash the car. I love it.


I spent that much time because my driveway had not been cleaned in YEARS, is 20x200ft, and needed me to use the super fine "turbo" fitting, sweeping back and forth 2 inches at a time. It was a MESS. We get mold and mildew on every surface here, and it was actually accumulating into black piles as I washed it off the concrete. Now that I stripped that all off, I can use the 15 inch circular fitting once a year, and do the whole thing in one day.

I also stripped 300 square feet of desk down to fresh wood, and stripped 200 feet of cedar fencing down as well. Everything it touches, it makes pretty again.
