This video provides an initial review of the Harbor Freight Pacific Hydrostar Electric Pressure Washer. This pressure washer sells for as little as $78 when on sale at Harbor Freight. I’ve used it for a number of tasks including cleaning vinyl siding, ATVs, concrete slabs and more. Below is the description from the Harbor Freight website.

Lightweight and portable, this pressure washer features a pressure hose over 13 ft. 8 in. long so you can reach tougher areas and 5 in. diameter wheels for smooth transport. This is a great pressure washer for any auto garage or shop that wants to clean larger items quickly!

Awesome change to the channel and love the intro, Way to go Mark!!
Mine would knock the paint right off that awesome 4 wheeler. It’s gas powered and HELL to start. So I am wondering if this would be strong enough to knock paint off a deck or something?
oh god im so dizzy
Thanks
can you make a video using the soap bottle please ?
Awesome review
any1 knows how far in the air it gushes on jet stream mode?
is it still working?
mine seems to have much more pressure than yours, and nozzle can be adjusted to a smaller soray that will cut you if you accidentally go across your bare foot.
Sucks get a better pressure washer, I got one for a day the hose is too short the better ones have a longer hose and more accessories. There is a 10% restocking fee unless it is broke.
Is yours still running? Mine quit yesterday. It was in it’s 2nd year.
how do you take off the spray attachments. push in turn to attach, real easy, but can’t get them off now?
Take off the last part of the wand at the discharge and give the handle a squeeze. A tiny arc of water comes out. Is there even really a pump in this thing? A true comparison of this would be against a $20.00 wand that attaches to a hose. I returned mine the day after purchase and got them to waive their re-stocking fee. Total waste of time and effort.
I need to know how to put the nozzle on the soap bottle. I’ve watched 3 videos so far and nobody has used it
I used once last year to clean my deck… I tried to used las week… didn’t work… warranty expired… so is garbage now…
Hmmm buy something for 3x the cost of that and finish the job in 1/3 of the time and the last 2/3 of the time go have fun :)..
In my opinion, a better pressure washer may be a better investment :)..
i just got one and its good. but i was also wondering where can i get parts for it just incase a hose go bad?
It actually works great. saves water while washing my truck. just an important too: don’t use the fine stream because it WILL take off car paint..had to make a quick stop at the parts shop and buy some matching paint.
I live in country with huge trees close to my house. House of only two years old but the stuff grows like crazy on the house and other surfaces. Yes, bleach helps a ton. But I tried a rather expensive electric pressure washer. Nope. Not even a 1/8th as good as my gas powered washer. In order to get an effective electric washer…you would have to buy a commercial grade unit that costs well over $2000.00. Electric power equipment has come a long way over the last 10 years…sadly consumer grade electric power washers have not. People that have decks to wash, siding to clean, and pretty much anything else …for now, stick to a gas unit. Maybe down the road the technology will allow a better priced powerful consumer grade unit. Of your looking for a toy, get an electric washer 🙂
Couldn’t pay me to use this thing again. Bought it, used it once, worked ok… Went to use it again and it would shoot water inconsistently- pulsing then not working at all. Just took a sledgehammer to it, and it’s the best experience I have had with this pile of shit. If you enjoy pissing away $100 go ahead and buy it.
you didn’t show how to assemble. I have a little spring and I don’t know where it goes
it works great for cleaning off my girlfriend
Does anyone know where to get parts for this washer? I bought one and the plastic switch on the motor that shuts off the motor when you are not pushing the trigger actually broke off while I was using it. I need to find someone who has parts for this thing. Has anyone else had this issue? The symptoms are that it will not turn off when not being triggered, and water spews out of the back of the washer constantly.
by changing the tip I would use it to spray bleach
Hey Mark,
Would you recommend this for washing cars or should i go with something with more pressure?
I just bought this cleaner today. Do you still have the pressure washer and is it still working? Thanks
Is this thing worth buying?
