Zoom on the Black+Decker BEPW2000
The Black+Decker BEPW2000 is a medium duty pressure washer, and enables:
- intense cleaning of tough, paintless surfaces
- cleaning of painted and fragile surfaces
- applying 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 BEPW2000's axial cam pump, powered by a 13 amp universal motor, can provide a pressure of up to 2000 PSI (approximately 33 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.2 GPM (CETA-certified values). The Black+Decker BEPW2000 thus has a cleaning power of 2400 Cleaning Units.
Since it is an electric pressure washer, the motor of the BEPW2000 is started simply 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 D11 x W11.9 x H25.2 in, the Black+Decker BEPW2000 makes mobility one of its core strengths. The telescopic handle further eases storage and offers a convenient pulling height, allowing effortless transportation.
Since the unit weighs only 22.7 lbs, it is very easily carried around. It is lightweight, partly thanks to its plastic frame. On top of its light weight, the transportability and ease of use of this model is further improved by the addition of two 6" never-flat wheels.
Main Features
The Black+Decker BEPW2000's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 3 nozzles and a detergent addition feature, with a more detailed description below.
- Soap addition: Detergent is added to the water at the exit, by attaching the included foam cannon to the end of the wand.
- Pressure hose: Using a set of convenient hooks, the included 25 ft ⌀1/4" high-pressure hose can be easily stored on the unit when it is not running.
- Spray gun and wand: The included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand can be easily stored in a side hook.

The Black+Decker BEPW2000's performance versus other pressure washers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea of how the key specs of the Black+Decker BEPW2000 compare to similarly priced pressure washers.
- The Black+Decker BEPW2000, with a maximum pressure output of 2000 PSI, has an average pressure output, when considering electric units in $150 to $180 price range. If your priority is the highest possible power of the water stream, in this price range, we suggest checking out the Westinghouse ePX3500, which reaches up to 2500 PSI.
- When compared to devices in the above-mentioned price range, this washer and its 1.2 GPM (gallons per minute), is on the lower end of the achievable water flow. If maximum rinsing efficiency is your top priority, one of the devices with the highest water flow in the same price range is the Sun Joe SPX2690-MAX, with a GPM of 1.8.
- Reaching up to 2400 Cleaning Units (PSI X GPM), the BEPW2000 is one of the more efficient amongst its similarly priced peers. If you consider the highest overall cleaning power as a really important factor, the AR Blue Clean AR390SS and its 2800 Cleaning Units has one of the highest cleaning efficiency of all the similarly priced units.
Price comparison
As you can see from this interactive chart, when compared to other electric washers between 2000 and 2500 Cleaning Units, the Black+Decker BEPW2000 is on the average side of the price range.
Therefore, this pressure washer nicely fits in the expected budget for this kind of cleaning power.
The bottom line
- In the expected price range
- Portable
- Onboard storage
- High CU for the price
- Decent PSI for the price
- Could include more nozzles
- Low GPM for the price
