Description

The G3200X was developed to offer strong cleaning performance that is both easy to use and store. This gas pressure washer delivers 3200 PSI of TruPRESSURE™, ensuring you get the highest level of cleaning power. The G3200X is powered by the performance driven Karcher KXS 196 cc engine which is backed by a 3 year engine and 2 year pump warranty.

Zoom on the Kärcher G3200X

The Kärcher G3200X is a heavy duty, commercial pressure washer, that provides its users with an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and enables:

  • intense cleaning of tough, paintless surfaces
  • cleaning of painted and frail surfaces
  • applying 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 Kärcher G3200X's aluminum axial pump, powered by a 196 cc engine, can provide a pressure of up to 3200 PSI (approximately 53 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.4 GPM (CETA-certified values). The Kärcher G3200X thus has a cleaning power of 7680 Cleaning Units.

A classic pull-start mechanism is responsible for starting the gas-powered pressure washer’s Kärcher KXS engine.

A fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 0.8 gallon is used to store gasoline.

Design & Handling

With its hand truck design and approximate dimensions of D25 x W19 x H37 in, the Kärcher G3200X provides great mobility. The strong welded steel frame assures assembly longevity. The folding handle enhances its mobility, while allowing for a convenient storage.

The device can be maneuvered with ease by most, since it only weighs 64 lbs. Its 196 cc Kärcher KXS engine and welded steel frame all add up to a substantial part of that weight. Since the G3200X has a set of two 12" never-flat wheels, it is still easily maneuvered and manipulated.

Main Features

The Kärcher G3200X'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: Detergent is stored in a removable 0.5 gal tank. However, since the Kärcher G3200X does not feature a soap dilution mechanism, you'll have to make sure your detergent is correctly diluted before use. If a soap nozzle is attached, the device will proceed to add the detergent to the water automatically.
  • Pressure hose: The included 25 ft ⌀1/4" high-pressure hose can be neatly stored on the unit when idle thanks to a set of easy-to-use straps.
  • Spray gun and wand: Both the classic ergonomic spray gun and its zinc-coated wand may be conveniently stored in a side hook.
  • Nozzles: The following table illustrates the 4 included nozzles, along with the surfaces which they are the most suitable for.

Other Features

  • Onboard storage: The Kärcher G3200X features a handy storage area, which allows you to neatly store nozzles and accessories and be always prepared by having everything needed at hand.
  • Safety: Safety of operation is enhanced by a trigger lock mechanism (which prevents accidental operation).
  • Accessories: On top of an owner's manual (opens in a new tab) and the usual documentation to get you swiftly started, the Kärcher G3200X also comes with pressure hose, wand and spray gun.
  • Emissions: The Kärcher G3200X is EPA-approved and CARB-compliant. Therefore, the sale and purchase of this pressure washer is permitted in all of the 50 states, including California.

The Kärcher G3200X's performance versus other pressure washers

The following charts are provided to give you an idea of how the key specs of the Kärcher G3200X compare to similarly priced pressure washers.

  • Able to deliver a maximum pressure of 3200 PSI, the Karcher G3200X is one of the gas-powered products that can produce the highest water pressure, in the $240 to $300 price range.
  • In its respective price range, the water flow of this washer, 2.4 GPM (gallons per minute), ranks as average. If you’re after the highest rinsing efficiency, one of the units with the highest water flow in the current price range is the Powerhorse 89897, that can deliver up to 2.6 GPM.
  • Reaching up to 7680 Cleaning Units (PSI X GPM), the G3200X is one of the more efficient amongst its similarly priced peers. If the highest overall cleaning power is your top priority, the Powerhorse 89897, which can reach up to 8320 Cleaning Units, is one of the most efficient of the devices in the current price range.

Price comparison

As you can see from this interactive chart, when compared to other gas-powered washers between 7500 and 8000 Cleaning Units, the Karcher G3200X is on the cheap side of the price range.

It can therefore be a really good buy if you're looking to acquire a budget pressure washer.
