Power Comparison
- Fuel: Both units are electric pressure washers.
- Engine & Pump: The Sun Joe SPX3000 and the Sun Joe SPX3000 XTREAM both use an axial-type pump to put water under pressure. The Sun Joe SPX3000's pump is powered by a 14.5-amp motor, while the Sun Joe SPX3000 XTREAM uses a 13-amp motor. Both motors are of the Universal type.
The following charts are provided to show you at a glance how the main specs of the Sun Joe SPX3000 compare to the Sun Joe SPX3000 XTREAM.
- Pressure: With a maximum reachable pressure of 2200 PSI, the Sun Joe SPX3000 XTREAM provides a slightly higher force to blast off dirt and grime than the 2030 PSI of the Sun Joe SPX3000.
- Water Flow: When operating at low pressure, the SPX3000 can generate a slightly higher maximum volume of water than the SPX3000 XTREAM. It can deliver up to 1.76 GPM (gallons per minute), whereas the SPX3000 XTREAM offers a maximum water flow of 1.65 GPM. The former should thus allow you to rinse away dirt and debris with somewhat better efficiency and speed.
- Cleaning Power: As the difference in Cleaning Units (PSI x GPM) between the Sun Joe SPX3000 and the SPX3000 XTREAM (3572.8 and 3630 C.U., respectively) can be considered negligible, we can say that both theses devices share the same overall cleaning efficiency. Therefore, even though the Sun Joe SPX3000 has a lower pressure rating, its higher water flow makes it the superior unit.
Design Comparison
- Design: With their compact design, both units are constructed with a strong focus on portability in mind.
- Weight: At 23.4 lbs, the SPX3000 is somewhat lighter than the 28.4 lbs of the SPX3000 XTREAM.
- Maneuverability: Both products benefit from a set of wheels, which greatly contributes to their maneuverability. Both offer a handle, which improves your grip when you wish to move them.
Feature Comparison
- Soap Addition: Both washers allow for the addition of chemical detergent solutions to the water. For the SPX3000 XTREAM, this is achieved via a foam cannon attachment, whereas the SPX3000 uses a dual detergent tank system.
- Trigger Gun & Wand: Each of these 2 units comes with a fairly standard ergonomic trigger gun and a classic wand.
- Nozzles: Both pressure washers come with 0°, 15°, 25°, and 40° nozzles, but the nozzle similarities stop here. The SPX3000 also has a soap nozzle.
- Reach: Both products include a 20 ft high-pressure hose. Therefore, neither of them will, out of the box, allow for a higher freedom of movement around the unit. As both units feature a 35 ft power cord, their maximum allowable placement from an electrical outlet is the same.
- Storage: The SPX3000 and SPX3000 XTREAM both offer onboard storage that allows you to neatly keep the accessories you need at hand. Both washers feature a set of hooks to help you neatly store their high pressure hoses when not in use.
- Accessories: In addition to the usual set of included accessories, the Sun Joe SPX3000 XTREAM also comes with wheel brush, utility brush, and garden hose adapter.
