Its power characteristics and design, its main features and all its additional features are presented ahead.
Power
The A-iPower PWF2701SH's aluminum axial pump, powered by a 196cc engine, can provide a pressure of up to 2700 PSI (approximately 45 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.3 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). Thus, the A-iPower PWF2701SH achieves a cleaning power of 6210 Cleaning Units.
The Senci engine of this gas-powered pressure washer is initiated by a classic pull-start mechanism.
Design & Handling
The A-iPower PWF2701SH is very mobile, due to its hand truck design and approximate dimensions of D20.6 x W18.2 x H35.9 in. The durable steel tubing frame of the assembly ensures its longevity, providing stability and shielding internal components from damage, even in tough conditions. The rubber-padded fixed handle adds to the PWF2701SH convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
This unit, weighing 57 lbs, strikes a comfortable balance between portability and stability, ensuring easy maneuvering for users of various strengths. This substantial weight can be partially attributed to the incorporation of the 196cc Senci engine and a resilient steel tubing frame. Still, the PWF2701SH's two 12" never-flat wheels ensure easy handling and maneuverability.
Main Features
Along with the A-iPower PWF2701SH itself, the package also includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are discussed in further detail below.
- Soap injection: Though lacking a dedicated soap tank, the device ensures detergent supply via a siphon hose. Attachment of a soap nozzle prompts the pressure washer to automatically introduce and blend the detergent with the water.
- Pressure hose: For easy organization, the included 25 ft high-pressure hose can be stored on the unit using a set of convenient hooks when it's not in use, ensuring a clutter-free workspace.
- Spray gun and wand: The included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand can be easily stored in a side hook.
- Nozzles: In the table below, you can see the 4 included nozzles alongside their respective recommended surface uses.

| Concrete, brick, masonry | ||||
| Siding, gutters, house | ||||
