That cordless 60v model is pretty cool for $140 if you already have batteries. I know Makita has/will have something similar but it is ungodly expensive ($700+)

Frankly, the battery powered ones don't seem to work very well. But, for really light stuff, it might... never have light wash around here. For medium to heavier or longer applications, battery powered pressure washers just don't cut it.

FYI. Electric pressure washers are borderline useless if you're planning on jobs like cleaning driveways or washing your house.
Erm no. I just did 3 driveways in last week with my 3000 psi Ryobi electric.
I use Ryobi surface cleaner w wheels and after a lot of cleaning I switch to the Ryobi water room and push away dirt to end of area and clean again. Takes a little longer but totally worth the effort you just use the water broom step in lieu of less gpm
No big deal really just takes longer. You do this once a year or two not like everyday task
Did my house and my grandmas and a neighbors this week. Neighbor gave me 200

Lol. Yeah...and I can paint my entire house with a 2" trim brush. Your pressure washer puts out about 1/2 the water of a typical gas model per minute.
It's going to take considerably longer to clean a driveway vs a gas model.
Time = money.
If you're trying to make money cleaning your neighbors' driveways or houses, spend more and get a gas model and do twice the jobs in the same amount of time. It will literally pay for itself in one job! Electric models are not their equal yet. One day, but not yet.

I mean. I agree but I bought this for me, it's just then my grandma asked to do here after seeing mine and then neighbor said I give you 200 to do mine
Here's thing. It is not bad with the water broom device. I cleaned 2 squares by garage door, then swap to water broom, and takes 10 seconds to run all that dirt to 2 blocks away. switch back to surface cleaner, repeat.
You just use the water broom to push away the dirt that the gas would of done on its own. 1 extra step
I paid 260 for it, it was when it was first listed. Must of been a price mistake tho because became 240 in cart from 379 next day it was 399 on Home Depot and 399 in cart. I tried to order a 2nd one but Home Depot told me no at the same price I paid before.
On side note I sold my 3,200 psi 2.8gpm unit and I don't regret it bc I only power wash once a year and handling fuel and stabil and carbs etc
Eff that
I posted pics. Of the attachments I use with my electric. Makes quick work.
I only did neighbors bc. 200 is literally 80% of my unit! My Ryobi is free almostttt.

I agree gas is a pain. If there was an electric unit that was equal in performance and cost to gas, I'd ditch my gas unit too. It's the last gas powered "tool" I own. Everything else is electric.
I have the 2000 PSI I bought from Lowes on clearance for $65, I used it only handful number of times but it seem to work pretty good so far but I heard bad reviews of greenworks pressure washers though.

Before you buy, give a call to Greenworks customer service. I have been on and off their phone queue for over two weeks trying to get a warranty part. I have yet to speak to a human. I decided to mail a letter the old fashioned way yesterday. The worst customer service on the planet!

and figured I'd try to compare between the many similar Greenworks models available at different stores.
This one is Model 5107402VT
Best buy has a similar Model:5112102VT for $170 https://www.bestbuy.com/site/greenworks-2000-psi-electric-pressure-washer-green/6469675.p?skuId=6469... [bestbuy.com]
Like the free shipping through Greenworks but certainly would prefer to buy locally in case there's an issue
