Score: 75/100Rankings
The DEWALT DXPW3400PRNB is a professional-grade gas pressure washer featuring innovative PressuReady electric starting technology. It delivers high performance with 3400 PSI and 2.5 GPM, making it suitable for heavy-duty commercial tasks. While the electric start offers significant convenience, the need to purchase a separate battery and the unit's weight are notable trade-offs.
The EGO Power+ HPW2100 is a compact, cordless pressure washer designed for homeowners seeking convenience and portability. It offers unique dual water source flexibility and quiet operation, making it ideal for light to moderate cleaning tasks. However, its lower pressure and flow rate, along with limited battery runtime, make it less suitable for heavy-duty or large-scale jobs. It is best suited for users with existing EGO battery ecosystems or those needing off-grid cleaning capabilities.
