Description
Zoom on the Greenworks GPW1953
In a nutshell, the Greenworks GPW1953 is a medium duty pressure washer, which not only offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, but that also allows:
- cleaning of painted and frail surfaces
- application of detergent and cleaning solutions
- intense cleaning of hard 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
Powered by a 13 amp universal motor, its axial pump can deliver a pressure of 1950 PSI (around 33 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.2 GPM (values as per PWMA testing standards). Combined, these values mean that the Greenworks GPW1953 has a cleaning power of 2340 Cleaning Units.
Since it is an electric pressure washer, the motor of the GPW1953 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 hand truck design, the Greenworks GPW1953 provides great mobility. The strong steel tubing frame assures assembly longevity. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the GPW1953 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
With a weight of only 27.8 lbs, the unit is definitely easy to carry around. To further improve its transportability and ease of use, the unit also features a set of two 8" wheels.
