Description
Zoom on the Sun Joe SPX2005P
In a nutshell, the Sun Joe SPX2005P is a medium duty pressure washer that allows:
- spot cleaning of hard, paint-free surfaces and out-of-reach areas
- thorough cleaning of hard, paint-free surfaces
- cleaning of painted or delicate 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
The Sun Joe SPX2005P
With a 13 amp universal motor, its axial cam pump delivers a pressure of 2100 PSI (roughly 35 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.8 GPM (values as per CSA testing standards), resulting in the Sun Joe SPX2005P's cleaning power of 3780 Cleaning Units.
Since it is an electric pressure washer, the motor of the SPX2005P 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 portable design, the Sun Joe SPX2005P makes mobility one of its core strengths. The handle adds to the SPX2005P convenience of transport.
Standing at only 13 lbs, this model can be carried around very easily. It is lightweight, partly thanks to its plastic frame. This light weight compensates for the fact that the SPX2005P doesn't have any wheels, as it's not something necessary.
Main Features
Along with the Sun Joe SPX2005P itself, the package also includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 3 nozzles and a detergent addition feature, which are discussed in further detail below.
- Soap addition: Detergent is added to the water at the exit, by attaching the included foam cannon to the end of the gun. The foam cannon features a dial to allow you to manually choose the detergent dilution ratio.
- Pressure hose: The included 20 ft high-pressure hose can be neatly stored on the unit when idle thanks to a set of convenient hooks.
- Spray gun and wand: Both the classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand may be conveniently stored in a side hook.
- Nozzles: The table below shows you the 3 included nozzles, as well as the surfaces they're the most appropriate for.

Some of the included accessories

- Safety: Safety of operation is enhanced by a trigger lock mechanism (which prevents accidental operation).

The Sun Joe SPX2005P's performance versus other pressure washers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea of how the key specs of the Sun Joe SPX2005P compare to similarly priced pressure washers.
This unit is now discontinued, but used to be sold around $180.
- Reaching a 2100 PSI max pressure output, the Sun Joe SPX2005P has an expected pressure value, compared to the other electric units in the $170 to $220 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 SPX4600, which reaches up to 3000 PSI.
- The water flow of this washer, which reaches up to 1.8 GPM (gallons per minute) is one of the highest values found in the above-mentioned price range.
- Reaching up to 3780 Cleaning Units (PSI x GPM), the SPX2005P is one of the more efficient amongst its similarly priced peers. In case you are looking for the highest overall cleaning power, in this price range, one of the current champions is the Realm BY02-BIMK and its 4550 Cleaning Units.
The bottom line
- Portable
- Onboard storage
- High GPM for the price
- High CU for the price
- Decent PSI for the price
- Could include more nozzles
