Description
Zoom on the A-iPower PWF2701SH
In summary, the A-iPower PWF2701SH is a heavy duty pressure washer, that offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and also:
- targeted spot cleaning for hard, unpainted surfaces, reaching elevated areas, and thoroughly removing stubborn stains
- mild cleaning for delicate surfaces, and low-pressure cleaning for broader areas
- applying detergent and cleaning solutions, and rinsing surfaces
The following sections will present you in detail its power characteristics and design, its main features and all the additional features it has to offer.
Power
The A-iPower PWF2701SH
With a 196cc engine, its aluminum axial pump delivers a pressure of 2800 PSI (roughly 47 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.4 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer), resulting in the A-iPower PWF2701SH's cleaning power of 6720 Cleaning Units.
Initiating the Kohler RH265 engine of this gas pressure washer is achieved through a classic pull-start process.
Gasoline is stored in a fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 0.55 gallon.
Design & Handling
Thanks to its hand truck design, the A-iPower PWF2701SH offers great mobility. The steel tubing frame's robustness ensures the assembly's longevity, maintaining stability and protecting internal components, even in the harshest environments. The rubber-padded fixed handle adds to the PWF2701SH convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
With its 66 lbs weight, this unit offers a manageable size that allows for easy handling by most individuals, enhancing user convenience during operation. This substantial weight can be partially attributed to the incorporation of the 196cc Kohler RH265 engine and a resilient steel tubing frame. Yet, its two 12" never-flat wheels ensure the PWF2701SH remains effortlessly maneuverable.
Main Features
The A-iPower PWF2701SH's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, with a more detailed description below.
- Soap injection: Detergent storage is ensured by a dedicated tank. The pressure washer automatically dispenses and mixes the detergent with the water when a soap nozzle is attached.
- Pressure hose: When not in use, the unit allows for tidy storage of the included 25 ft ⌀1/4" high-pressure hose using a set of convenient hooks, ensuring convenient organization.
- Spray gun and wand: The included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand can be easily stored in a side hook.
- Nozzles: The following table provides information on the 4 included nozzles and their recommended surface uses.
0° | 25° | 40° | Soap | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Concrete, brick, masonry | ||||
| Siding, gutters, house | ||||
| Fencing, deck, patio | ||||
| Lawn equipment, boat, RV |

The A-iPower PWF2701SH's performance versus other pressure washers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea of how the key specs of the A-iPower PWF2701SH compare to similarly priced pressure washers.
- The A-iPower PWF2701SH, boasting 2800 PSI, achieves a lower pressure compared to other gas-powered pressure washers in the $400-500 price bracket. If you're going after the highest possible power of the water stream, one of the best in this price range is the Kärcher G3400P that can reach up to 3400 PSI.
- At 2.4 GPM, this washer falls into the average range for water volume among devices in the price range noted above. If being able to rinse away debris as efficiently as possible is your priority, one of the products with the highest GPM in this price range is the Excell EPW2123100, with 2.8 GPM.
- Boasting 6720 Cleaning Units (PSI X GPM), the PWF2701SH places on the lower end of the spectrum in terms of cleaning power compared to other gas-powered devices in this price range. In case you are looking for the highest overall cleaning power, in this price range, one of the current champions is the Excell EPW2123100 and its 8680 Cleaning Units.
