Description
Zoom on the Westinghouse WPX2700
In a nutshell, the Westinghouse WPX2700 is a heavy duty pressure washer, which not only offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, but that also allows:
- precise spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces, reaching elevated areas, and effectively removing stubborn stains
- mild cleaning for delicate surfaces, and low-pressure cleaning for broader areas
- applying detergent and cleaning solutions, and rinsing surfaces
Ahead are presented its power characteristics and design, its main features and any other additional features.
Power
With a powerful 212cc engine, its aluminum axial cam pump delivers a pressure of 2700 PSI (roughly 45 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.3 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer), resulting in the Westinghouse WPX2700's cleaning power of 6210 Cleaning Units.
Initiating the Westinghouse engine of this gas pressure washer is achieved through a classic pull-start process.
Gasoline is stored in a fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 0.9 gallon.
Design & Handling
Enhanced mobility is a key feature of the Westinghouse WPX2700, thanks to its hand truck design. The steel tubing frame's robustness ensures the assembly's longevity, maintaining stability and protecting internal components, even in the harshest environments. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the WPX2700 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
With its 63 lbs weight, this unit offers a manageable size that allows for easy handling by most individuals, enhancing user convenience during operation. The unit's weight is principally a result of the inclusion of the 212cc Westinghouse engine and a strong steel tubing frame. However, with its two 12" never-flat wheels, the WPX2700 is easy to maneuver.
Main Features
The Westinghouse WPX2700 comes with a spray gun, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are detailed below.
- Soap injection: Detergent storage is ensured by a 0.5 gal tank. As the Westinghouse WPX2700 does not include a soap dilution mechanism, it's essential to ensure proper detergent dilution before operating the pressure washer. Upon attaching a soap nozzle, the pressure washer seamlessly integrates the detergent into the water flow.
- Pressure hose: When not in use, the unit allows for tidy storage of the included 25 ft ⌀5/16" high-pressure hose (2700 PSI rating) using a set of convenient hooks, ensuring convenient organization.
- Spray gun: The included ergonomic EnduraGrasp spray gun can be easily stored in a side hook.
- Nozzles: The table below shows you the 4 included nozzles and the surfaces they're the most appropriate for.
0° | 25° | 40° | Soap | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Concrete, brick, masonry | ||||
| Siding, gutters, house | ||||
| Fencing, deck, patio | ||||
| Lawn equipment, boat, RV |
Important: The nozzle shapes shown above are for illustrative purposes and may vary. Symbols denote suitability, with a indicating 'Not recommended,' a for 'Suitable,' and an for 'Use with caution.'
Other Features
- Onboard storage: The Westinghouse WPX2700 allows you to be always fully prepared, as it features a handy storage area, where nozzles and accessories can be stored.
- Safety: Safety of operation is enhanced by a trigger lock mechanism (which prevents accidental operation) and a thermal relief valve (which helps to prevent internal pump damage).
- Accessories: Included with the Westinghouse WPX2700 are also the owner's manual (opens in a new tab) and some basic documentation to get you promptly started, along with several accessories, such as nozzle cleaner, tool kit, spray gun, oil, funnel and pressure hose.

The Westinghouse WPX2700's performance versus other pressure washers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea of how the key specs of the Westinghouse WPX2700 compare to similarly priced pressure washers.
- The Westinghouse WPX2700, a device which can produce up to 2700 PSI, is on the lower end of the pressure spectrum, among the gas-powered pressure washers in the $240-300 price range. If your priority is the highest possible power of the water stream, in this price range, we suggest checking out the Simpson CM61456-S, which reaches up to 3200 PSI.
- When compared to devices in the above-mentioned price range, this washer and its 2.3 GPM (gallons per minute), is on the lower end of the achievable water flow. If rinsing away debris most efficiently is your priority, one of the devices with the highest GPM in this price range is the Ryobi RY802925, which can reach up to 2.5 GPM.
- Amongst similarly priced gas-powered devices, the 6210 Cleaning Units (PSI X GPM) of the WPX2700 rank as low. If you consider the highest overall cleaning power as a really important factor, the Simpson CM61456-S and its 8000 Cleaning Units has one of the highest cleaning efficiency of all the similarly priced units.
Price comparison
As you can see from these interactive charts, when compared to other gas-powered washers between 5700 and 6800 Cleaning Units, the Westinghouse WPX2700 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.
The bottom line
- Inexpensive
- Good range of nozzles included
- Onboard storage
- Several security features
- No detergent dilution mechanism
- Low PSI for the price
- Low GPM for the price
- Low CU for the price

User Reviews
Bought the WPX2700 on Amazon. It’s my first pressure washer and it is working great so far. Used it to wash my house using 1 gallon of Mold Armor and straight water for rinsing. Easy to assemble, powerful pressure, easy starting, and comes with a standard 3 year residential warranty or a 1 year commercial warranty. So far I’m satisfied with this washer.
I bought this machine used it one time it was brand new it has no pressure it just barely sprays any water at all
