Description
Zoom on the WEN PW2300
The WEN PW2300 is a medium duty pressure washer, that provides its users with an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and enables:
- targeted spot cleaning for hard, unpainted surfaces, reaching elevated areas, and thoroughly removing stubborn stains
- overall cleaning of hard surfaces, washing vehicles, and prepping surfaces for painting
- mild cleaning for delicate surfaces, and low-pressure cleaning for broader areas
- using cleaning solutions, and rinsing surfaces to remove residue
Its power characteristics and design, its main features and all its additional features are presented ahead.
Power
Its axial cam pump, which utilizes a 13-amp universal motor, may deliver a pressure of up to 2300 PSI (almost 38 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.4 GPM. Although the provided PSI represents the maximum achievable value, it's typically only reached at initial discharge. Under normal operating conditions, the unit has a rated pressure of 1650 PSI. Corresponding to these values is a cleaning power of 2310 Cleaning Units.
The PW2300 easily starts up with the press of an ON/OFF switch, providing seamless operation. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
Featuring a portable design and approximate dimensions of D12.8 x W11.6 x H29.9 in, the WEN PW2300 underscores its dedication to mobility. The handle adds to the PW2300 convenience of transport.
With a weight of only 21.3 lbs, this lightweight unit is effortlessly portable, making it ideal for tasks that require frequent movement or transport around your home or property. The use of an plastic frame helps maintain its lightweight build. Adding to its lightweight construction, two 5.5" never-flat wheels are included, simplifying mobility and transport.
Main Features
The WEN PW2300 comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose and a detergent addition feature, which are detailed below.
- Soap addition: Detergent is added to the water at the exit, by attaching the included foam cannon to the end of the gun.
- Pressure hose: Utilizing a set of convenient hooks, the unit offers a convenient solution for storing the included 20 ft high-pressure hose when it's not in use, keeping it neatly organized.
- Spray gun and wand: Both the classic ergonomic spray gun and its versatile wand may be conveniently stored in a side hook. The adjustable wand lets you adjust the spray pattern from a full fan spray (widest spray width) to a direct stream spray (narrowest spray width).
Other Features
- 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 WEN PW2300 comes with nozzle cleaner, pressure hose, wand, foam cannon (to add cleaning solutions to the water), spray gun and power cord.
