Is the Sun Joe SPX3000 strong enough for a driveway?

It handles light concrete cleaning, mildew and caked mud, but stubborn oil stains and deep grime may need slower passes or a stronger gas unit.

How does it compare with the SPX3001?

The SPX3001 adds a hose reel and slightly different accessories; the core 1,800 PSI pump and dual-tank setup are essentially the same.

Can I use it with a bucket instead of a garden hose?

It is designed to draw from a pressurized garden hose. Running from a bucket requires a separate suction kit and is not supported out of the box.

What nozzles come in the box?

Five Quick-Connect nozzles: 0, 15, 25 and 40 degrees plus a soap nozzle, along with the 34-inch wand, 20-foot hose, garden hose adapter and needle cleanout tool.

Does it heat the water?

No. It uses cold water from your garden hose only; hot water can damage the pump.

How much detergent do the tanks hold?

Two removable 0.9 L tanks, one for each detergent, selected with the dial on the unit.

About the Sun Joe SPX3000 Electric Pressure Washer

The Sun Joe SPX3000 is a corded electric pressure washer that uses cold water. It is PWMA Certified and has an 1800-watt, 14.5-amp motor. It is meant for medium to heavy-duty cleaning on homes, siding, decks, driveways, patios, cars, trucks, RVs, boats, ATVs, trailers, barbecues and lawn equipment. It can remove tar and grease from concrete, heavy mildew, oil stains, rust from steel and caked mud.

Two removable 0.9 L detergent tanks hold two different detergents at once, and a selection dial switches between them. Five Quick-Connect nozzles let you change the spray: 0, 15, 25 and 40 degrees, plus a soap nozzle. A 34-inch extension wand reaches high and low areas, such as 2-story buildings and the undersides of vehicles.

The trigger has a lock-off switch and a TSS (Total Stop System) that shuts off the pump automatically when the trigger isn't engaged. The power cord has GFCI protection. Rear wheels make it easy to move around the yard.
