Description
Zoom on the Greenworks GPW1954
In a nutshell, the Greenworks GPW1954 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
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 Greenworks GPW1954's axial pump, powered by a 13 amp motor, can provide a pressure of up to 1950 PSI (approximately 33 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.2 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). The Greenworks GPW1954 thus has a cleaning power of 2340 Cleaning Units.
The GPW1954 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
The Greenworks GPW1954 offers superb mobility, with a hand truck design. Its sturdy steel tubing frame provides longevity to the assembly. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the GPW1954 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
With a weight of only 38.8 lbs, the unit is definitely easy to carry around. A set of two 8" wheels also improves the ease of transport of the device.
Main Features
The Greenworks GPW1954's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, with a more detailed description below.
- Soap injection: A safe detergent storage is facilitated by a dedicated tank. The Greenworks GPW1954 includes an automatic soap dilution mechanism, which will dilute the detergent using a 20:1 ratio. If a soap nozzle is attached, the device will proceed to add the detergent to the water automatically.
- Pressure hose: A neat storage for the included 20 ft high-pressure hose is facilitated by a convenient hose reel, which also improves its lifespan.
- Spray gun and wand: The included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand can be easily stored in a side hook.
- Nozzles: The 4 nozzles included with the device, and the respective surfaces which they’re the most suitable for, are shown in the following table.

The Greenworks GPW1954's performance versus other pressure washers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea of how the key specs of the Greenworks GPW1954 compare to similarly priced pressure washers.
- The Greenworks GPW1954, which can achieve a PSI of up to 1950, falls behind the other electric pressure washers in the $225 to $315 price range. If the highest possible power of the water stream is your priority, one of the champions in this price range is the Sun Joe SPX4601 with 3000 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. 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.
- The GPW1954 has 2340 Cleaning Units (PSI x GPM), which can be considered low in comparison to other electric devices of this price. If you are after the highest overall cleaning power, the AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSS with its 3910 Cleaning Units is one of the products that can achieve the highest cleaning efficiency in this price range.
