Using a hose, or a sprinkler, is never a bad choice, but hoses and sprinklers aren’t that effective. If you need to wash away dirt, moss, or some other kind of gunk, then a hose or sprinkler can be very useful. But, if what you need to wash is thick and dense, and has been there for a long period, then using a hose/sprinkler is not a very good idea.

Instead of using a hose or sprinkler, you should use a pressure washer. Pressure washers are fantastic devices that work in a manner very similar to that of a hose/sprinkler; you press a button, and water comes out. But, the difference is that a pressure washer takes this water, and sprays it out at a high pressure. With this high pressure, the water is much stronger, and this strength, and intensity, makes it significantly easier to remove dense chunks of things like moss and grime.
In this buying guide, we’re going to be looking at one of the best electric pressure washers that is currently on the market. This electric pressure washer is the Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO 2030 PSI Electric Pressure Washer, and you are going to learn about the features and qualities that Sun Joe has given this electric pressure.
Then, from that, we’re going to take an in-depth look at the Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO, Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO, and the Sun Joe SPX4001. You’re going to learn what those electric pressure washers offer, as well.

What Does The Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO Offer?
Pressure washers tend to be rather heavy, and the Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO is not the most lightweight device on the market. Weighing 38.6 pounds, it can be slightly tricky to move this pressure washer around, but due to the hose, you don’t have to move it around very much. And, along with that, there are small wheels on the bottom that make it slightly easier to move the electric pressure washer around.

To use this electric pressure washer, you need to connect a hose to the spray tip. Most of the time, you’ll be using the twenty-foot hose that Sun Joe has provided.
The spray tips serve as the space where the water comes out. And, when you connect a hose and turn on this electric pressure washer, water then comes out and begins to flow through the hose. Each spray tip is designed for a particular water pressure, and a particular cleaning task. By having five different spray tips to choose from, you have more freedom when it comes to the type of pressure washing you can do.

Through the use of a 14.5 amp motor, you have access to a water pressure that is up to 2030 PSI. This is a significant amount of water pressure. Using this water pressure, you can easily remove dirt, gunk, and grime that has been caked onto a surface over many years. All you need to do is to turn on the pressure washer, select the water pressure, and spray. All of the gunk and grime will simply wash away, due to the strength of the water pressure.
Sometimes, you need some extra help with your pressure washing. Within the Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO, there is a small detergent tank. By filling this detergent tank up with a good cleaning detergent, the pressure washing experience will be a little easier for you. Stains will be washed away at a quick and rapid pace, and it can aid in removing chunks of dirt and grime from hard surfaces.

Ultimately, the Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO is a fantastic electric pressure washer that gives you quite a bit of bang for your buck. It’s an affordable electric pressure washer that works very well and gives you the ability to remove all of the gunk and grime that are on the surfaces you wish to clean.

Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO Vs. Sun Joe SPX4000
When you take a look at the Sun Joe SPX4000, you’ll notice that it looks quite a bit like the Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO. The design is very similar, and so are the different features.

In many ways, the Sun Joe SPX4000 is the same electric pressure as that of the Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO, but the difference is that the SPX4000 is a bit cheaper, and it offers slightly less performance, overall.
Using one of five spray tips, and the hose that Sun Joe has provided, you have access to a maximum of 2030 PSI. This is a lot of water pressure, and for the most part, it works very well. You can use this water pressure to quickly and efficiently remove a variety of different stains and messes that are on various surfaces.
The water pressure is quite high, but due to the design of the hose, it isn’t conducted as well. This means that you don’t have access to as much sheer power as you do with the Sun Joe SPX4000. There isn’t a significant difference, but it is something to consider.
Other than that, the biggest difference is the fact that the Sun Joe SPX4000 weighs 27.8 pounds, and it’s a lot easier to move this electric pressure washer around.
If you are on the market for a relatively lightweight electric pressure washer that gives you a decent amount of freedom, then the Sun Joe SPX4000 is a great choice. It’s affordable, easy-to-use, and quite powerful.

Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO Vs. Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO
With the Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO, you have an electric pressure washer that is very similar to the previous two Sun Joe electric pressure washers. But, with the Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO, you have far more versatility and flexibility when it comes to movement. There is also a hose reel that prevents the hose from becoming tangled.

On the bottom of the Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO, there are several large wheels. These are large and strong wheels that move, across any surface, very easy.
As for the other features and qualities, the Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO gives you access to five different spray tips, as well as 2030 PSI of water pressure. Pressure washing is very easy, with the Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO.
If you don’t mind spending some more money, and you want an easy-to-use and flexible pressure washer, the Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO is a great choice!

Sun Joe SPX4000-PRO Vs. Sun Joe SPX4001
Finally, we have the Sun Joe SPX4001. This is an electric pressure washer that is just like the Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO, but it lacks a few qualities that make the Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO the “PRO” version of this particular electric pressure washer.

When it comes to the basic features, they’re all the same. You have 2030 PSI of water pressure, there are five different spray tips that you can choose from, and there are strong wheels on the bottom.
The big difference is that these wheels aren’t quite as strong as the ones on the Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO, and this does affect the overall mobility. Along with that, the hose, while quite good, does leave a little bit to be desired. It’s not the strongest hose, but it works well enough.
In the end, if you want to save a bit of money, the Sun Joe SPX4001 is a very good electric pressure washer that gives you an experience nearly identical to that of the Sun Joe SPX4001-PRO.
