As the SPX3000-MAX and the SPX2598-MAX are both Sun Joe pressure washers, they benefit from the same level of quality and attention to detail.

Power Comparison

  • Fuel: Both units are electric pressure washers.
  • Engine & Pump: The Sun Joe SPX3000-MAX and the Sun Joe SPX2598-MAX both use an axial-type pump to put water under pressure. The Sun Joe SPX3000-MAX's pump is powered by a 14.5-amp motor, while the Sun Joe SPX2598-MAX uses a 13-amp motor.

The following charts are provided to show you at a glance how the main specs of the Sun Joe SPX3000-MAX compare to the Sun Joe SPX2598-MAX.

  • Pressure: With a maximum reachable pressure of 2800 PSI, the Sun Joe SPX3000-MAX provides a much higher force to blast off dirt and grime than the 2000 PSI of the Sun Joe SPX2598-MAX.
  • Water Flow: When operating at low pressure, the SPX2598-MAX can generate a much higher maximum volume of water than the SPX3000-MAX. It can deliver up to 1.6 GPM (gallons per minute), whereas the SPX3000-MAX offers a maximum water flow of 1.3 GPM. The former should thus allow you to rinse away dirt and debris with significantly better efficiency and speed.
  • Cleaning Power: With its 2420 C.U., the Sun Joe SPX3000-MAX offers a much higher overall cleaning efficiency than the SPX2598-MAX and its 1800 C.U.

Design Comparison

  • Design: With their compact design, both units are constructed with a strong focus on portability in mind.
  • Weight: Weighing 15.8 lbs, the SPX2598-MAX is far lighter than the 37.5 lbs of the SPX3000-MAX.
  • 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 SPX2598-MAX, this is achieved via a foam cannon attachment, whereas the SPX3000-MAX 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°, and 40° nozzles, but the nozzle similarities stop here. The SPX3000-MAX also has 25° and soap nozzles.
  • 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-MAX and SPX2598-MAX 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.
