FAIP Powerwasher #PWS1800-U October 7, 2008 John Sapp I expected a good power washer after reading all of the great reviews. I was not disappointed, it even exceeded my expectations. Great little power washer, very lite and very quite.
Tempermental October 6, 2008 Nicholas Marx I have used my pressure washer 3 times so far and have had some problems. After reading a few reviews I was kind of scared. First thing happened the variable pressure wand got stuck on the low setting. A direct chat on the manufacturers web site helped me correct that. This last time when I hooked everything up and started the machine, no water was coming out at all. As if something was stuck inside the machine. I let it sit for an hour and she worked fine. I used it for more than 6 hours straight, and once the pressure is up it works great. The machine is tempermental and I am hoping it will continue working so well.
Great Product. October 1, 2008 Anthony Cardenas (Upland, CA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was one of my best purchases on Amazon. This pressure washer kicks butt! It is very powerful and the price was betterthan you'll find anywhere. My husband really loves it and now he's looking for things to clean!
Should have read all reviews to avoid usual problems mentioned in the reviews September 30, 2008 Jerry B. Andrews (Andalusia, Alabama USA) Lesson learned. I failed to read all the reviews and ordered the unit. Used it once and when I tried to use it again, the pressure hose would not remain attached to the machine. It appears that the materials used in the hose threads is too soft and when I contacted the company, they said that I must have crossthreaded the hose attachment. Agreed to ship me another hose unit in 10-14 days but I am concerened that the replacement unit, with the soft metals used by the manufacturer, that it will crossthread again. I am really displeased with the unit and should have read the other reviews where others had similar problems. If the replacement hose crossthreads, I am returning for full refund. Why does a manufacturer continue to use the soft threading materials on their hose when the repeatedly have problems with crossthreading?
Don't count on customer service for repairs/replacement September 29, 2008 Wayne Seden I have been very unsatisfied with the company, FAIP (aka Power Washer) that manufactured this unit. I initially received the power washer on August 7th, it ran well for 20 minutes when the motor started smoking and I shut down the unit. I let the unit cool down then tried to start it again with no success. I contacted the company via their live on-line system (it's impossible to contact them by phone even when you get their number) and they paid to have it sent back for repairs. Since the unit was new I asked for a new unit instead of a repair. They refused and said the needed parts were on back order. I waited for nearly three weeks then received the supposedly repaired unit. It still did not work as the motor would not start. Instead of replacing it they sent me instructions for trouble shooting the unit. From this process they determined that I needed to replace the on/off button. Why wasn't this checked when they had it in for repairs?. I was told they would send a new switch to me with instructions for installation but said it would take another 8-10 business days for delivery. I am waiting patiently but seriously doubt now that the switch is the real or only problem. I will write a new review if it is or is not the solution.
