5.0 out of 5 stars Good Performance - Excellent Ergonomic Design

One reason that I chose this brand of pressure washer is that it was top rated by Consumer Reports among electric pressure washers. Amazon offered prompt delivery at a competitive price. After using it clean mold, mildew, algae and grime off of a large concrete pad where I have parked my motorhome for five years, I can see why it received a good rating.
Unpacking and assembly was so intuitive that I barely needed to refer to the included instructions. Once together I was impressed with how easy it is to maneuver and operate. Most importantly, it offers enough pressure and nozzle options to do good work on the toughest power washing jobs. I put bleach in its "detergent" tank which significantly enhanced its ability to blast years of mold, mildew, algae and other debris from the concrete, leaving it looking like new. Knowing that would be my toughest power washing job, that's why I tackled it first.
After cleaning that concrete, other jobs like blasting algae off of siding and gutters was a breeze. This model power washer is as good as best I've ever used during my long life. Since it's just a few weeks old, I cannot comment on its longevity, but my wife and I are pleased with its operation and ease-of-use. Aside from its performance, it has some good features to minimize potential injuries.

I’d been researching electric pressure washers for a while and tried two different brands. This pressure washer won me over. It’s easy to use, durable, quiet, and powerful. We are pressure washing multiple times a year living in the PNW and this will do just fine. I also added the surface cleaner and you get plenty of pressure to clean sidewalks and patios. My only feedback is .there is a slight delay between pressing the power button and the machine turning on. Despite that I’m looking forward to using this more often

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice quiet Greenworks 3000 pressure washer
Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2023

Purchased the Greenworks model 3000 (psi) pressure washer on sale, and used it for two days outside surface cleaning in Aug 2023; liking the Greenworks model 3000 a lot. A quiet electric machine - online videos don't show how quiet it is. But online videos do show the Greenworks max psi is well under 3000 psi, eg the 15" Greenworks surface cleaner measured at 1000 psi (and the tips higher than 1000 psi), so the pwasher/surface cleaner should be safe for pavers. Packaged with wheels mounted; pwasher quickly assembled, no assembly issues, similar in size to my old gas 2600 psi Craftsman. Like its green appearance and its sturdy frame/body steel like my old gas pwashers. Its box arrived mostly pristine/undamaged, and parts looked sparkly new, unused - i see some one-star reviewers show otherwise.
So thanks to those web videographers who measured the Greenworks psi pressures/gpm using pressure meters inline with gun and 5-gallon buckets to inform us of what each pwasher tip and surface cleaner psi and gallons per minute actually are. Greenworks should have easily provided that info, including their pump nomenclatures, so we as consumers can make a better choice, ie may not have needed the 3000 psi model if the pumps and internal electronics are the same for lower rated psi Greenworks models. For example, if a lower rated model has a pump to be avoided, then we can choose a better model.
Used the Greenworks brand 15" surface cleaner on our wide (2-car) concrete driveway, concrete sidewalk, and 5' wide x 40 ft paver walkway, and delighted with the cleaning results. Even though I owned Craftsman gas pwashers for decades, did not know how low a psi pressure can be to clean concrete, so 1000 psi for concrete using the 15" diameter surface cleaner. (Using the surface cleaner is a must if you want to feel like a human when you are done, a great time saver). So the math falls to 500psi for each of the two surface cleaner rotating tips that clean concrete and pavers.
Did not use the onboard soap reservoir yet- used a bucket of very diluted Zep concrete cleaner and just spilled it on and used a push broom. Phoned Greenworks, because neither their supplied instruction manual nor their online videos recommend a detergent, and their (annoyingly small print) instruction manual stated no acidic nor base detergents (page 9) should be used; that just leaves water as the detergent per their written directions. But the Greenworks responder suggested Simple Green as a guess for the soap dispenser Aug 2023. Purchased the Greenworks addon soap applicator on sale, but have yet to use it. fyi, entertaining to see the videos repeatedly miss which detergent to use; the video host only says "here is the Greenworks detergent reservoir", and skips to another pwasher part; an SNL moment.
Did not find that the few second delay after pulling the gun/trigger or after elec powering on a nuisance as many reviewers suggested. An extension wand is required for the surface cleaner, because the supplied gun/wand are too short for using the 15" diameter surface cleaner. (Can purchase surface cleaner including an extension wand)
No electric problem from a lamp post outlet 40+ ft from house with 12-guage underground wire on a 15 amp circuit ( I have not tried using an extension elec cord yet). Careful to keep garden hose and electric power cord and surface water separate. Initially, blow the surfaces.
Rinsed the surface cleaner after each day of use; and relieved the gun pressure each time the washer was powered off to spend a little time rinsing a completed surface section. Smooth sailing so far.
Btw, Trex does not recommend use of a pwasher, nor does Bob Villa recommend a pwasher on a house exterior - I still use the extension 22 ft aluminum threaded pole with replaceable brush and a bucket of very diluted Palmolive liquid dish detergent on vinyl siding to prevent my clothes from getting bleached by the stronger house exterior cleaning products, and this Palmolive solution is safe for Trex decks.
More than a week later, amazed how good looking the driveway and sidewalks appear, wow! The age of the 36 ft concrete sidewalk is 42 years, the 50 ft driveway 25 years, and the 40 ft paver walkway 9 years. (Also cleaned a small concrete pad at our garage people door, and a nearby cluster mailbox concrete/aggregate pad for 16 neighbors on our cul-de-sac.)
And yes, the Greenworks plastic holster for the pwasher gun is weak when in the upright/storage position; ok when in horizontal (working) position, but would prefer the decades old circular short plastic holding tube - reviewers are currently suggesting a bungee cord to bolster the holster; the reviewer used 3 holster bolts shown in his photos to anchor the gun whereas the model 3000 I received Aug 2023 only has two gun holster bolts. Also not a fan of the pressure hose holder which has a supplied bungee - our old gas Craftsman had a perfect hose holder on a strong plastic reel.
But goodbye to gas pwashers! (applause). Hope this 3000 model will last; one-star reviewers do show some caution, and hope in general elec pwashers improve.

5.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly sturdy and just enough power

For a city dweller this is perfect. It’s compact, functional, requires no oils or really maintenance of any kind. I’ve only had it for a little while but have put it to work and the washer has performed well. Only once has it tripped its own breaker and I consider that impressive. It even does fairly well with a rotary concrete scrubber. Set in stains will take some really close scrubbing with a narrow nozzle or the included rotary nozzle works well.

5.0 out of 5 stars The preassure washer I wanted and as advertised
Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2023
Size: 3000 PSIVerified Purchase
I have used this preassure washer for cleaning a travel trailer, small pool, fence, an stone path. While I didn't test out the psi, I've found it to be effecient and comparable to smaller gas preassure washwers. It starts smooth, runs smooth and keeps going for hours and hours of work. The holder for the wand doesn't work too well, but rarely does it need to hold it so I don't see that as a big issue.

Greenworks 3000 pro plus Greenworks 15” surface cleaner. Both worked impressively. I spent about 16hrs on a job that usually takes me twice that. The ability to just push a button definitely outweighs gas and oil pressure washers for any home or light commercial duty.
