Description
Zoom on the Sun Joe SPX202E
In a nutshell, the Sun Joe SPX202E is a light duty pressure washer, which not only offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, but that also allows:
- spot cleaning of hard, paint-free surfaces and out-of-reach areas
- 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 SPX202E
With a 11 amp universal motor, its axial (wobble plate) pump delivers a pressure of 1450 PSI (roughly 24 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.48 GPM (values as per CSA testing standards), resulting in the Sun Joe SPX202E's cleaning power of 2146 Cleaning Units.
Since it is an electric pressure washer, the motor of the SPX202E 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 and approximate dimensions of L15.4 x W8.2 x H12.1 in, the Sun Joe SPX202E makes mobility one of its core strengths. The handle adds to the SPX202E convenience of transport. The handle remains sturdy and will never fall apart, as it is molded in the frame.
Because the device weighs just 11.2 lbs, carrying it around is very easy. This is, in part, thanks to its plastic frame, which allows it to remain as lightweight as possible. This light weight compensates for the fact that the SPX202E doesn't have any wheels, as it's not something necessary.
Main Features
Along with the Sun Joe SPX202E itself, the package also includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose 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 20 ft high-pressure hose, which is included with the device, can be stored neatly on the unit itself when idle, using a set of easy-to-use straps.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook enables you to easily store the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its versatile wand. Sun Joe's adjustable wand removes the need for different nozzles. By turning the pressure adjustment knob, it is possible to easily change the water pressure from an intense, 0° jet spray to a gentle, 45° fan spray.
Other Features
The Sun Joe SPX202E
- Safety: Safety of operation is enhanced by a trigger lock mechanism (which prevents accidental operation).
- Accessories: Besides the usual owner's manual (opens in a new tab) and documentation to get you promptly started, the Sun Joe SPX202E comes with power cord, pressure hose, nozzle cleaner, wand, spray gun and foam cannon (to add cleaning solutions to the water).
