The Sun Joe SPX3000 XTREAM is a medium duty pressure washer, that provides its users with an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and enables:

Power
With a 14.9-amp universal motor, its axial (wobble plate) pump delivers a pressure of 2200 PSI (roughly 37 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.1 GPM (values as per PWMA testing standards), resulting in the Sun Joe SPX3000 XTREAM's cleaning power of 2420 Cleaning Units.
The SPX3000 XTREAM swiftly activates via a simple ON/OFF switch, ensuring user-friendly startup. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
The Sun Joe SPX3000 XTREAM's commitment to mobility is evident through its portable design and approximate dimensions of D14 x W16 x H34 in. The handle adds to the SPX3000 XTREAM convenience of transport.
This unit's low weight of 27 lbs ensures easy maneuverability, allowing you to tackle cleaning projects with minimal effort. Thanks in part to its plastic frame, it remains lightweight. In addition to its lightweight build, the inclusion of two solid wheels ensures easy mobility and handling.
