Electric pressure washers??
The few I've used are not much better than a squirt gun. These are these small things powered with regular household current? You can easily carry them in one hand? 1 gpm?
Sincerely: what exactly is being pressure washed where they will be useful? At least the ones I've used were useless trash when new. Scrubbing with a brush was more productive. Isn't the fundamental limit that 15 amps of house current is < 2hp?
I pressure wash all sorts of stuff and own a gas thing for my regular small jobs like fences before spraying stain. Mine is ~4.5hp and it can do 2.5gpm at 3000psi but I wouldn't bother to use it on a mossy patio.
Big jobs I go rent a commercial one that weighs ~300lbs but does > 4 gpm. Big wide spray pattern that gets the work done very quickly.
I despise maintaining gas motors but pressure washer and concrete saw are two cases where you just need to deal with the inconvenience.
Most important thing with pressure washer is to wear a mask and eye protection.
