Inability to express your meaning correctly makes no compliment. If you don't really know what "cheap" means it's hard to trust you using the word - you might mean "attractive" with it (and it's not always the case). And it puts your education in doubt, honestly. I don't really care, but still - it's the impression you make.

Well I suppose you can doubt my level of education if you like, lol. Actually I normally would express it as "low price" and not even sure why I said "cheap price" instead. Oh well. For the record, I had previously referenced the actual price of the product.

A really common expression that most people mistakenly say is "I could care less" when it should be "I couldn't care less". This one bugs me.

It's the opposite meaning (a much plainer mistake meaning those people don't think when they speak ). If you make that kind of mistakes you should eliminate them first, of course. Just don't stop striving for improvement.

Insulting another forum member again, shocking.Your posts haven't made sense to me for years. Maybe you should use Google translate

We'll see how this goes. Pretty excited, I know it isn't the real thing but it's as close as I can get right now. Hope to be able to get going on my license again soon.

SunTek PPF installed today. I know this is a pic thread but hoping no one can spot this purchase in the pic.

@TiMSport If you still have your receipt, I think they give a 2 week window for price adjustments. I was always told they needed (wanted) the original receipt....even though they can verify the purchase just by looking up your history via your member card.

Yeah actually I do. I was wondering whether they would honor that but wasn't sure. I always keep my receipts for larger purchases just in case. Thanks for the heads-up!

Short story short, father in law passed in November. Lived in Oregon, had craftsman gas powered pressure washer NEVER used. Brand new a couple years ago. I wanted it. Moving company lost it… I waited six months and am at square one.

That unit you posted has an unreal 1.76 GPM versus a lot of others in the same class/category only doing 1.1-1.3

If that’s the case, I am told gpm is much more important than just psi… any input from this purchase thread turned pressure washer thread?

I’ve had the same one for a few years but rarely use it. When I have used it it worked well for cleaning / rinsing the house but I can also just do that with a hose, albeit not quite as well. I’ve also decided to just spray down the pavers and sidewalk with chlorine / chlorine - based cleaners every other year and get them professionally cleaned every other year (alternate between spraying cleaners myself and having someone doing it with chemicals and equipment). Really need surface brushes to do pavers / sidewalks properly and not leave lines.

I don’t use a pressure cleaner on cars but this one should work well for that. Some of the connections / parts seems a little suspicious for longevity (like where water source hose connects to it) but it was cheap and can just be replaced after a few years if necessary.

I've seen that Sunjoe one and I have the Husqvarna one and can tell the difference in quality. I think the Husqvarna is built more solid and may last longer. We'll see. I'm definitely happy with the performance so far. Really cleaned the driveway and sidewalk well as well as the cars.

So I went to Costco and asked for a price adjustment and they credited me back $40 without any hassles at all. Love Costco! This PW is a steal at $150.

Thanks for reminding me of this bosstones !

No pix, but just bought a bunch of plants from a nursery. We had a gift card from a prior purchase that expires at the end of the month and we can't be leaving $$$ on the table like that.

Karl Foerster reed grass
Autumn moor grass
'Big Beauty' alliums
False Indigo...something
'Wedding Cake' spirea
'Royal Candle' speedwell

I'll post pix once they're delivered and we've planted them in our front landscape island. Yes, I'm old. lol
