Customer Reviews for RYOBI 12 in. 3100 PSI Electric Pressure Washer Surface Cleaner with Caster Wheels

Love this accessory!! The caster wheels (easy to install by the way) make the surface cleaner glide so easily. Gets the job done.

Started to leak from the hinge on the top after 15 minutes of use with my greenworks 2300psi electric pressure washer. The hinge point is made od plastic and not enough strong for the pressure where's the o-ring joint. As this unit it look to be the best one designed for electric pressure washer, my conclusion forget about surface cleaner on electric pressure washer! Those qualiy one's made of metal need more pressure & GPM and will not work good or at all with electric pressure washer.

The RYOBI 12 in. 3100 PSI Electric Pressure Washer Surface Cleaner with Caster Wheels is a lightweight (only 3.7 pounds) high-pressure surface cleaner to be used for decks, sidewalks, and driveways. It is for horizontal use, due to safety reasons. This pressure washer is designed for use on electric pressure washers that do not exceed 3100 pounds-per-square-inch (psi) water pressure at the rate of 1.2 gallons per minute (GPM). This is the maximum water pressure and flow rate. If your pressure washer produces less pressure or less flow rate, it is OK to use this cleaner with it. The cleaner is specifically designed for Electric and Battery-Powered Pressure Washers because the flow rate of gas pressure washers are typically much higher than the 1.2 GPM specification for this washer. Using a gas pressure washer with this cleaner will quickly damage the cleaner and could cause personal injury when the cleaner disintegrates. The cleaner comes with 3 wheels detached but they are very easy to assemble. The all-plastic deck is 12 inches in diameter with a row of bristles around the deck to help keep the water and debris from splashing in a large diameter area. It hooks directly to the pressure washer’s wand 1/4-inch quick-connect coupler where you would normally mount the sprayer tip. Connecting it to the wand also provides the handle to move the cleaner around easily. The underside of the cleaner are 2 nozzles that rotate in a 9-1/2-inch diameter circle that produces a 12-inch diameter cleaning surface. You use the wand’s hand control to turn on/off the cleaner. It cleans well but I recommend spraying the surface to be cleaned with a cleaner first that is designed for the material to be cleaned and let it soak in a little while. Such as using a cement cleaner for a sidewalk, or wood cleaner for a wooden deck, etc. This surface cleaner is not as powerful as a heavier duty surface cleaner designed for gas pressure washers, but it does a good job and is much better than just using a hose sprayer. I recommend it for the occasional home use. Made in Vietnam.

The only assembly required was putting on the casters which was easy to do by just wiggling caster while pushing it in. This is a cleaning tool designed for outdoor cleaning tasks such as washing driveways, patios, decks, and sidewalks. It features a 12-inch cleaning path and caster wheels that make it easy to maneuver around the cleaning area. The surface cleaner has a two-nozzle rotary system that ensures an even and streak-free cleaning performance. The caster wheels are designed for easy transportation and maneuverability, making it easier to move around the cleaning area without the need to lift the surface cleaner. Additionally, the surface cleaner is compatible with most RYOBI pressure washers, which makes it easy to connect and use. Overall, the electric pressure washer surface cleaner with casters was very easy to use and is an excellent choice for homeowners who want to keep their outdoor areas clean and tidy. It is easy to use, versatile, and provides efficient and effective cleaning results. I tested this device on a level muddy algae-covered cement surface that had not been cleaned in years It did pretty well on the lighter algae areas but when I started on the heavier areas I had to go slower and do several passes much like a vacuum. Since it was a level surface dirty water stayed in place so I sprayed the excess water off to see what I had missed

The Ryobi surface cleaner works as advertised as long as your power washer is up for the task. If you have a cordless power washer it should be able to deliver more than the minimum 1200 PSI for good/fast results. Anything less, I would not recommend. I used a cordless first with a little less than the minimum 1200 PSI and results were terrible. When I used my 2150 PSI power washer results were super. The shell overall quality is ok to good and is lightweight. The wheels are sturdy with ball bearings for rotation. Only negative is the cleaning wire should have had a location for it to be secured on the shell. This will get lost for sure. However, it definitely cut down my cleaning time and highly recommend.

The wheels are a nice addition to the original model. It saves you from dragging across the pavement and putting stress on your wrists and forearms. It's a bit overpriced, though.

This pressure washer is quiet but has enough strength to do a good job in cleaning around the house.

Excellent product, very easy to use and does a great job. Just plug and spray.

Easy to assemble/use and cleaned great hooked to a 3000 psi electric washer. Definitely need to pace your speed to prevent striping, but the coverage more than makes up for the slower movement. I regret not getting one sooner for all my flat concrete.

Works nice., but sprayer nozzles plug up easy.

Waste of time. slows down water pressure

Sprayer quit turning

Today, I bought a Ryobi 2000psi pressure washer and this surface cleaner. It worked well for about 5 seconds then the spinner stopped. Stop and start, and it spins again for 5 seconds then stops. I used the pin that came with it to clean the nozzles, but it wasn't clogged and it didn't help. For the 5 seconds that it worked it seemed to be doing a good job, but it is useless. It's so frustrating. Ryobi reviews, please tell me how to fix it.

Great for pavers and concrete that needs a little boost. They look brand new!

It did not clean well just marked lines on the patio

Very easy to use great results

I wish I had bought one sooner. This did a phenomenal job of cleaning my decks as well as my concrete patio.

Very easy to use and does a GREAT job

Do not buy!! This is a cheap surface cleaner which stops working on the first use. We bought this to go with our Ryobi electric pressure washer. It worked well to clean about a 6’x8’ section of our driveway. After that, it quit. Had to return it.

Does the job I expect. Likes to tip to the side. Easy to assemble and use. Works better on deck than concrete driveway. I would buy it again. Very little water spray beyond of unit bottom, which is great.

This works great and make power washing much easier.
