Zoom on the DeWalt DWPW2400
In a nutshell, the DeWalt DWPW2400 is a medium duty pressure washer, which not only offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, but that also allows:
- thorough cleaning of hard, paint-free surfaces
- cleaning of painted or delicate surfaces
- use of detergent and cleaning solutions
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 DeWalt DWPW2400
Its axial cam pump, which utilizes a 13 amp motor, may deliver a pressure of up to 2400 PSI (almost 40 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.1 GPM. These values correspond to a cleaning power of 2640 Cleaning Units.
Since it is an electric pressure washer, the motor of the DWPW2400 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
The DeWalt DWPW2400 offers superb mobility, with a hand truck design and approximate dimensions of D21.3 x W19.7 x H40 in. Its sturdy steel tubing frame provides longevity to the assembly. The rubber-padded fixed handle adds to the DWPW2400 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
Because the device weighs just 45.2 lbs, carrying it around is very easy. A set of two 10" pneumatic wheels also improves the ease of transport of the device.

Along with the DeWalt DWPW2400 itself, the package also includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are discussed in further detail below.

The DeWalt DWPW2400's performance versus other pressure washers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea of how the key specs of the DeWalt DWPW2400 compare to similarly priced pressure washers.
- Reaching a 2400 PSI max pressure output, the DeWalt DWPW2400 has an expected pressure value, compared to the other electric units in the $225 to $315 price range. If your priority is the highest possible power of the water stream, in this price range, we suggest checking out the Sun Joe SPX4601, which reaches up to 3000 PSI.
- When compared to devices in the above-mentioned price range, this washer and its 1.1 GPM (gallons per minute), is on the lower end of the achievable water flow. In case you are looking for a device which can most efficiently rinse away debris in the current price range, the AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSS has the highest GPM of 1.7.
- With 2640 Cleaning Units (PSI x GPM), the DWPW2400 is on the low end when compared to other similarly priced electric devices. If you consider the highest overall cleaning power as a really important factor, the AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSS and its 3910 Cleaning Units has one of the highest cleaning efficiency of all the similarly priced units.
