Zoom on the Black+Decker BEPW1700

In summary, the Black+Decker BEPW1700 is a light duty pressure washer, which provides:

  • cleaning of painted and frail surfaces
  • use of detergent and cleaning solutions
  • intense cleaning of hard surfaces

Its power characteristics and design, its main features and all its additional features are presented ahead.

Power

The Black+Decker BEPW1700 in use

The Black+Decker BEPW1700

Its axial cam pump, which utilizes a 13 amp universal motor, may deliver a pressure of up to 1700 PSI (almost 28 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.2 GPM. These values correspond to a cleaning power of 2040 Cleaning Units.

The BEPW1700 is an electric pressure washer and thus, can be easily started by an ON/OFF switch. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.

Design & Handling

With its portable design and approximate dimensions of D10.8 x W11.1 x H19.4 in, the Black+Decker BEPW1700 makes mobility one of its core strengths. The handle adds to the BEPW1700 convenience of transport.

The unit can be very easily carried around, as it weighs just 19.4 lbs. Among other factors, the plastic frame plays a role in this light weight. Even though the BEPW1700 doesn’t have any wheels, their absence is fully compensated by this light weight.

  • The Black+Decker BEPW1700 with its 1700 PSI achieves a lower pressure value, compared to other electric pressure washers in the $120-150 price range.
