Zoom on the DeWalt DXPW4035
The DeWalt DXPW4035, a heavy duty, commercial pressure washer, gives its user an all-around versatile cleaning experience, topped off by the following features:
- spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces, reaching high areas, and removing stubborn stains
- general cleaning of hard surfaces , washing vehicles, and preparing surfaces for painting
- soft cleaning of delicate surfaces, and gentle cleaning for larger areas with low pressure
- using cleaning solutions, and rinsing surfaces to remove residue
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
Powered by an impressive 269cc (8.4 hp) engine, its triplex pump can deliver a pressure of 4000 PSI (around 67 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 3.5 GPM (CETA-certified values). With these values combined, the DeWalt DXPW4035 boasts a cleaning power of 14000 Cleaning Units.
Starting the Honda GX270 engine of this gas pressure washer involves using a conventional pull-start method.
The pressure washer's tank has a maximum capacity of 1.4 gallon for storing gasoline.
Design & Handling
The wheelbarrow design of the DeWalt DXPW4035 offers enhanced mobility and stability, making it ideal for navigating uneven terrain and ensuring steady operation during heavy-duty cleaning tasks. The welded steel frame's robustness ensures the assembly's longevity, maintaining stability and protecting internal components, even in the harshest environments. The handle adds to the DXPW4035 convenience of transport.
With its hefty 126 lbs, this unit isn't exactly easy to handle, making manual lifting and transport quite a daunting task, especially on uneven terrain. The major reasons for its heavy weight are its 269cc Honda GX270 engine, the triplex pump and welded steel frame. However, the incorporation of two 13" pneumatic wheels makes navigating the DXPW4035 less cumbersome, even on uneven terrain.
Main Features
The DeWalt DXPW4035's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, with a more detailed description below.
- Soap injection: Even without a built-in soap tank, the device relies on a siphon hose to provide detergent. Connection of a soap nozzle triggers the pressure washer to automatically incorporate the detergent into the water stream.
- Pressure hose: The unit comes equipped with an included 50 ft ⌀3/8" high-pressure hose, which can be neatly stored on the unit when idle, thanks to a set of convenient hooks, ensuring easy access and organization.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook enables you to easily store the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand. The gun features a rotating auxiliary side handle to further improve the comfort of both left and right-handed users.
- Nozzles: The following table provides information on the 5 included nozzles and their recommended surface uses.

- Accessories: On top of an owner's manual and the usual documentation to get you swiftly started, the DeWalt DXPW4035 also comes with spray gun, soap hose, oil, nozzle cleaner, wand and pressure hose.

User Reviews
Bought a DeWalt DXPW4035 from Home Depot ($950.00) and used it three times. During the beginning of the 4th use the unit’s pump would not generate pressure or dispense a drop of water. I contacted Home Depot and was informed I had to directly contact a regional DeWalt service center for any repair. Home Depot provided no assistance so I researched and found the closest DeWalt Service Center to Tampa which was in Orlando (146 miles from my house). The DeWalt Service Center informed me they do not repair DeWalt Pressure Washer units because they do not produce them. Dewalt actually purchases the pressure washer units from a company named FNA and then they place their DeWalt logo on the units and sell them as if they were a Dewalt product. I called FNA for repair information and was instructed to take the unit to a local small engine repair shop in Tampa along with the Home Depot sales slip for a potential repair. Needless to say, I was informed that I would be given a call but that the repair could be over $1000 (a bit more than the purchase price of the unit. This was another lesson learned from 2 supposed legitimate companies (Home Depot and Dewalt) on how customers are mislead about products and can be scammed by clever marketing techniques.
I purchase this model in April 2021. Worked great until I need to add more fuel. Would not start again. Tried for two days… (did all the basic stuff, release gun pressure, etc..). I called Dewalt support. They had no clue, told me to take in for service. Really? After 45 minutes of use?
I then bought the model below this one last week. (May 2021) Within 10 minutes of use, two of the 4 pump bolts came loose, sprayed oil all over my stamped patio.
Used the pressure washer twice. Worked fine. The third time the vent on the pump started blowing water out. Called warranty department and took the machine to their repair center. The pump seals went bad after 2 tanks of fuel(less than 8hrs. of use) They have had the machine for almost 6 weeks and still hasn’t been repaired. They said the seal kit is not in their inventory yet. Why not replace the entire pump? Or the entire machine? Or refund my money?? Meanwhile I have had to rent a machine twice while my new pressure washer sits. Shame on you DEWALT. You have lost a costumer for life. Buy this pressure washer and you will be disappointed.
