I have an electric one and my dad has a gas one. More pressure is always
better as you can always back away and clean a wider area.
Problem w/ gas is they tend to sit around between uses and the carb can gum
up if you don't drain it after each use.
I like the electric myself for ease of use and not having any problems w/
carbs and stuff.
Check out the 1800 psi model that harbor freight has on sale for $119.99.
Should work fine and last a long time for average around the house use.
Would not trust it for industial every day use though. But then again, if
your using it a lot then carbs gumming up is not going to be an issue with
the gas model.

You will have to call them at 1-800-423-2567 and give them item # 02433-1ctc
to get the $119.99 price. Also give them coupon #271-562-215 for $5.00 off
and free shipping.
Here is the link for the specs.

I am looking to buy a pressure washer for my house before
I begin painting it. Naturally, I would like to use it to clean
the boat as well.

Does anyone have any recommendations as to pressure, GPM,
electric or gas or whatever?

Thanks for any help.
