I want a very low-cost pressure washer, just for simple things like washing my car, washing siding and gentle washing of my deck. I think I want something that will do about 1500 psi, correct ?Would like to spend $100 or less. Remember, this is not for heavy duty stuff, I don't won't to wash the paint off my house or cause damage to wood, etc. Just something that would give me perhaps 5-10 times more pressure than my water hose....Thanks for any recommendations !!James

By the time you haul it out, hook up all the connections, and fiddle with it until it actually works like it's supposed to, you could have finished most simple cleaning jobs.

Then you still have to disconnect everything, and put everything away, assuming the blasted things still works at all.

Then you can spend the next few days hoping you didn't damage what you were cleaning by forcing water into the siding or deck wood (for example).
