Going through hundreds of consumer reviews, we could not find any reports of major problems with this machine, however, one smaller problem seems to be common- the hose adapter is made of plastic and seems to leak. This problem can be solved by purchasing the brass adapter.
Here are some consumer comments:
“Works great, I have used this many times with no issues. Perfect for cleaning my house”
“Have had this for a year now. Works great. I did buy the brass quick connectors for the hose connection and would recommend that everyone get them. No leaks.”
The Verdict:
Not the most powerful in its class but good enough for light-duty cleaning. There are numerous reports of leaking fittings, therefore buying the brass couplet will stop any leaks. All the top models are reviewed on The DIY Hubby.
