Electric pressure washers
I'm thinking about getting an electric pressure washer and I would like to get one that shuts the motor off when you release the trigger. Who has one that does this and what brand and model number do you have?
One that I have my eye on is Home Depot's Husky Model #165019 1750psi for $179.95 it looks like a good deal. Anyone here familiar with it?

I have the Husky 1400 PSI model and it works great. The motor only runs when you pull the trigger, and for a couple seconds after you release it so the pressure get built back up. Already used it to clean the brick on my house, the gutters, driveway and deck. I also like that it doesn't use as much water as the gas powered ones do.

[QUOTE=I also like that it doesn't use as much water as the gas powered ones do.[/QUOTE] Using water is what makes it clean. More water, more cleaning power. Pressure x volume of water = cleaning units. It also increases cleaning power when adding heat to the water.
