I need a decent strength one to wash a house once a year. There is a walk out basement so one side of the house is 3 stories. Will a Harbor Freight model do....or is this a mistake and just pony up cash for a quality one??

    I've had the HF 2500 PSI model for two years washing house, drive, sidewalks, pool deck and tiled roof multiple times annually. Only issue has been a rolled O-ring in the wand valve which was easy to replace. I also got the 3-year extended warranty (bring it back for any/no reason, sans gas, and get a new one) with the purchase and it all was still appreciably less than a "name brand". Hope that helps.

    I've had good luck with my electric Sun Joe. You can get them on Amazon.

    My only dog in this is gas. Mine had a Honda motor worked great. Just be sure to put the lube/anti freeze anti rust stuff in at the end of the season
