AR Blue Clean AR112 1,600 PSI 1.58 GPM Electric Hand Carry Pressure Washer

The Ar Blue is phenomenal for the price. I recommend it highly! I basically got this thing to clean my long- forsaken, dirty tile concrete backyard. My wife and 3 children decided to put sticky contact paper on the ground to protect the tile when they were doing arts and craft. However the paper would not come off. My wife tried to take it off but she couldn't so it stayed like that for almost a year. Out of frustration, I purchased the hose as a last resort because i could no longer stare out into my dingy patio. The moment I started spraying, that sticky gooey stuff started peeling off. Amazing! After the successful campaign in the backyard, I tried spraying all the windows including the second story ones and it did a superb job there as well.As for the build and power, I was expecting this to be somewhat flimsy due to its price but was pleasantly surprised by it's sturdy construction. It's not metal but it's not cheap plastic either. I do not know what 1600 psi is supposed to do but it almost took the paint off of my walls when I got too close. Thankfully you can adjust the pressure by way of turning the nozzle clockwise like you would with any garden hose. My neighbor saw this product and he wanted to see how this thing did with his problematic walkway. He's got one of these walkways on the side of the house where it never sees sunlight. As a result the concrete is full of these greenish looking algae. My neighbor tried scrubbing it out with all types of soap including chlorine but the algae would not budge. When we tried out this product the algae came out like nothing. He was so blown away that he borrowed it.Cons:The only thing that doesn't work well is the soap dispenser that attaches to the hose which by the way is removable. Once you attach it, the water doesn't go far. It just sprays 2-3 feet with virtually no pressure. I think it's perfect for dispensing soap right before you wash a car or something but it's not made to spray second story window.All in all, I recommend this product whole heartedly! Stay away from the ones that they sell at Target or Infomercials. I hear nightmare stories about them.

I love the AR Blue Clean pressure washer. The only reason I gave it a 4 verses a 5-star rating is because of the leaks at the hose connections. They were not a surprise to me as the reviews of others had indicated that as a problem. But on balance, I took a chance and am happy that I did. The unit is light, easy to move around and relatively quiet. I have used it to clean off our patios and driveways, vinyl house siding, washing cars, and a the cleaning of a wood deck of my son-in-law. In all those cases it did the job beautifully and I didn't have to worry on the deck about the stream being too strong and shredding the wood flooring and rails as I had the experience of doing with gas-powered pressure washers. Make no mistake about it, the hose connections do leak and are a bother. But the price was right and as mentioned above, the pressure washer did the jobs I wanted done beautifully. I recommend this item enthusiastically for the type of jobs mentioned above.Up-date 1/21/2014 - after six or seven uses in under 4 months, the handle on the wand cracked which renders the pressure washer useless. I ordered a replacement earlier today online. Altho' the total cost with shipping was under $20, I still was not a happy camper. Lo and behold I received a call from the company within a half hour of the order. A very pleasant voice notified me that the unit and parts was under a 12-month warrantee - no charge of any kind. A replacement handle/wand would be on the way shortly and my online payment would be credited out. They didn't have to notify me of that policy - and I wouldn't have known the difference. It is so unusual these days that any company would make that effort. So my hat's off to them and my enthusiasm for the product is now also extended equally for their customer service program as well. Not only for their policies but for having the pleasant gal that delivered the message in their employee as well.

Living in the deep south you have humidity which encourages the growth of mold and fungus. My driveway had turned dark to black in some spots and I was hoping for something that would blow the gunk out from between the cement . I had rented pressure washers before for the same problem but I decided to skip the cost and hassle of renting a gas powered model and give this thing a shot.After doing much on line research I chose this model. And it did not disappoint!With its easy instructions, ( they apparently have changed them) setting up is a snap and ease of operation was a breeze. Getting to blast out the mold and fungus that had built up over several years was a joy to see. My driveway is now back in beautiful cement gray ( not like the previous swamp black). From there I tackled the outdoor screen room and had that looking great in record time then the garage was next. This machine does a great job and the wand makes it easy to adjust pressure on the fly ( unlike the rental kind that made you stop and change heads to get a different power setting). Its not the most powerful thing on the market but it has enough kick for most average homeowner jobs. Like all pressure washers you must be careful not to wear flip flops around this thing. It may mot take off a toe ......but you'd be sorry if your mind wandered. That being said, this is NOT for kids to operate or to play with. It's way to dangerous .For the cost and ease of operation it cant be beat. If it were a bit more powerful it would have been awarded another star

Seems to be made quite well and doesn't leak. 1600 psi is a "good" pressure for casual use around the yard, but if you're looking to really clean stuff you may want to go higher. Easy to set up and disassemble. The power cord and hose length are quite long. The thing that I don't like about this machine is that it sprays in a horizontal pattern, which is really inconvenient for washing your car with, what I bought this unit for. While the pattern is adjustable, you can't turn it vertical. The only solution is to buy a different spray wand.

This is my first and only power washer experience, but I haven't been disappointed. After reading many reviews on Amazon, the AR Blue was the highest rated. I bought it primarily to clean my deck and windows and it does a fantastic job. I'll be sure to make use of it for a variety of other things as well (ie. washing my car, cleaning my lawnmower, cleaning interlocking, etc.)I would highly recommend this pressure washer to anyone.

Arrived quickly. Used it yesterday and am very impressed! It is easy to use, powerful and fairly quiet. It's easy to assemble and the connector makes it easy to attach to the hose. Adjustable pressure. Just love it! Consumer Reports was right.I just ordered the 10" deck attachment.

I bought this to replace a 1600PSI power washer made in China that lasted one summer. This unit seems to have greater power and is easy to use. But I have only had it for a couple of months, so stay tuned.

Very pleased with this purchase. Our driveway was a mess after city did some sewer repairs. Put the pressure washer to good use right away and it did a great job.
