Default Electric pressure washers

We are headed to Florida for four months and would like to take an electric pressure washer along for the trip. We have a couple of gas washers but they are kind of a nuisance to drag along. Does anyone have any recommendations for a washer about 2,000 psi say in the $200 range?

Jim, I have a Karcher 1800 psi electric pressure washer that I've used to get old paint off wood, and just recently, epoxy paint off a concrete patio. I've had it for many years now (more than 5) and like it a lot. It came with two wands, one delivers the max pressure, and other is less powerful.

It also stripped the paint off the outside mirrors on my Honda before I repainted them.

I did a quick search, and see there are several under $200 online. There's also this one for $229 that delivers 2000 psi: Karcher K5.68 2000 PSI Electric-Cold Water Pressure Washer

- Jack

Default Presure washer

I've read that using a pressure washer on any RV can cause damage.

Thanks for the replies. Even with a garden hose one should be very careful about hosing down around the vents, windows and doors. And on a Hi-Lo even more care is required. Lord knows that half the posts on our site are about water damage.
