Active 2.0 Electric Pressure Washer – 2.0 GPM high Pressure Washer for DIY at Home car wash, Detailing and Other Cleaning transformations with 1800 Peak PSI

I did my research on this power washer before buying, and this power washer is one of my favorite purchases in a while. I specifically purchased this power washer for washing the cars. I was at the point where I was getting tired of dragging the power washer on wheels from the garage and setting up everything before I started to wash my vehicles. For those of you that know what I'm talking about. Well I got there too. It was time to put together a wall mount unit for the garage. When the package arrived. I was really impressed at how small it was. It only weighs 12lbs, and its the only 2GPM power washer I could find south of like $700. The unit came with a long wand, foam cannon, your typical spray tip sizes in 3.7 orifice and like a 25ft cable. I was not interested in the peripherals, as I had my own products already, but if you didn't have anything it would be a good start. Not sure if that foam cannon is any good, but you can pick up a sweet deal here with the bear force ones. The SS one is like 38 bucks https://www.amazon.com/BEARFORCE-Stainless-Connector-Adjustable-800-5000PSI/dp/B0CDVYDKLT?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1 I paired this unit with the Mekoh wall unit found here https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D9GQPNN9?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title I originally purchased this wall mount with the holes in it because I was going to tie wrap and or put brackets on the shelf to keep it from falling off, but then I found these 3m feet to sit this unit down in for like 15 bucks on Etsy that worked even better. The unit goes no where and is rock solid. Just FYI. Should you go that route. Make sure to have everything lined up before taking the tape of the 3M stuff, because once it touches the shelf. Its set. The reel I went with was a 100ft coxreels here. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004E3W4QW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 This thing is built like I tank and I love it. I went with OG 50ft hose, 6.5ft garden hose, and 3 ft jumper hose. Some of the fittings you will need if you like the setup are: Quick disconnects https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CT29YPFN?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 90 street elbows https://www.amazon.com/dp/B098NCKW2Y?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title Garden hose quick disconnects https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09PFNF8KH?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 I highly recommend this power washer. It runs at about 1050PSI 2GPH. It really takes off the dirt off the vehicles and the foam from my foam cannon is tremendous. Not to mention when I get ready to wash the car. I just turn on the water and the power washer and I'm washing inside 2 minutes. I cant tell you how much that makes me smile. I should have done this years ago. Another tip about this power washer is that its not load at all compared to that floor unit from Sams I have had for many years. It has a pleasant hum. Just a tip. Do not pair this with a Uberflex hose as it will cause surges and possibly burn up the motor. Only use steel braided hoses.

Nice and small! Works great on washing cars and cleaning up around the house. Also use it quite a bit around the house.(pool, windows and siding.) Appears to be good build quality. I would think that this should last a while.

I'm so glad I chose this pressure washer. It's wonderful. Good pressure, good flow rate, I can very quickly wash my car and also use it power wash a grungy slate deck back to sparkling clean and new for nearly 5 hours straight (for long duration duty cycles). It's very portable, does not get too hot, and has a longer rated lifetime than most other electric power washers. Get a bunch of quick connect fittings, high pressure coupler, and a second pressure hose to give you length options and it's fantastic. I've not once tripped a breaker, and use this attached to a 25' extension cord. The included soap foamer works fine, but now is draining the soap tank within seconds, so I probably want to upgrade to a better foam cannon, but out of the box it will get the job done. paired this with a bunch of TwinkleStar fittings, and a AR Annovi Tecomec Mecline MV925 trigger handle + Forney 75126 Quick Coupler Male Socket, 1/4inch M-NPT. Absolutely love it for car wash duty since it does not have a massive extension arm. I also got: Twinkle Star Pressure Washer Hose Quick Connector, M22 Metric Male Thread Fitting, TWIS375 Twinkle Star Pressure Washer Adapter Set, Quick Disconnect Kit, M22 Swivel to 3/8'' Quick Connect, 3/4" to Quick Release MUTURQ M22 Male to 3/8 Inch NPT Male Pressure Washer Adapter Thread Brass Fitting Twinkle Star Pressure Washer Quick Coupler Nipple,5000 PSI,TWIS281 Flexzilla Pressure Washer Hose with M22 Fittings, 1/4 in. x 25 ft., ZillaGreen - HFZPW3425M-E Twinkle Star 3/4 Inch Garden Hose Fitting Quick Connector Male and Female Set (6 Sets) I also got a "HYDRO MASTER Heavy Duty 3/4" Brass Shut Off Valve with Large Handle, Full Flow Garden Hose Connector", since if you don't have a trigger handle attached to the pressure outlet, the water from the hose can bypass the pump and flow out, so it's nice to have a shutoff valve. Just don't forget to open it again when you turn on the pump or you'll probably cause cavitation and shorten the lifetime of your pump! Couldn't be happier. Get this! Edit: I picked up a "Twinkle Star Foam Cannon Snow Foam Lance with 1/4" Quick Connector", and that does a MUCH better job than the included foam-cannon. It's by no means a quality part, but for the money - it gets the job done. Just be careful with it and don't bang it around. It has excellent foam output, but it does not appear to be very robust and is very easy to cross-thread. Be patient!

I owned the Active VE52 for about three years before it started leaking. It was far better than my Ryobi 1800 PSI, 1.1 GPM pressure washer. The 2.0 model is more powerful and quieter than the VE52. For DIY use, it offers plenty of performance for the price, and I don't think the average homeowner needs the 2.3 or 3.0 versions. The steel‑braided hose also helps reduce short cycling compared with the flexible blue hose, which I assume will extend the motor’s lifespan. Overall, I recommend this product for its strong balance of performance and value.

I had the Active 2.0. The unit itself is fine — nothing groundbreaking, but it does the job. If you’re coming from a basic Ryobi setup, you’ll probably have a “wow” moment. If you’ve used other higher-end solutions before, it likely won’t impress you — but it will still get the work done. My issue started when the start/stop system stopped working. The unit would just keep running nonstop instead of shutting off properly. I contacted customer service, and that’s where things went downhill. The response time was extremely slow, and the whole process dragged on for weeks with little clarity or urgency. First I was told they would send a replacement part — and I ended up waiting about four weeks for that. Then they told me they would ship a replacement unit, which sounded fair, but even after that promise, another two weeks went by and nothing was actually shipped. In the end, the entire situation dragged out to almost two months — two full months without a washer that costs close to $400. Eventually I asked for a refund just to end the situation. Even then, it wasn’t smooth — the refund they issued was for less than what I actually paid, and I had to email them again to get a clear breakdown and have it corrected. At that point, it felt like even the refund process required extra effort on my side

Some background, I have a SunJoe SPX3000 and a Simpson PS3800 gas unit. I was looking for an electric pressure washer with more cleaning units than the SunJoe which per my tests is just under 1600 (1400 psi x 1.125 gpm with supplied nozzles). I have a pressure gauge that reads to 5000 psi and do timed bucket fill tests for flow rate. Active lists 3600 CU's for this unit on their website and before ordering I called Active to discuss how the unit could achieve such high CU's on a 15 amp circuit and which nozzle size would be required to achieve the 3600 value. The support person couldn't answer and said he would discuss my question with their technical group and call me back which he never did. I decided to order the unit anyway based on tests by Obsessed Garage and others on YouTube. Obsessed Garage and other YouTube reviews tested the unit primarily for vehicle washing and not for maximum cleaning units. I'm on a municipal water supple with 60 psi pressure and over 7 gpm feeding the pressure washer. As mentioned I've tested my SunJoe and also my Simpson gas unit in the past. The SunJoe, like many (most?) consumer electric pw's doesn't come close to it's rated pressure and flow. The Simpson is very close producing 3.5 gpm at 3600 psi just 200 psi off it's rated pressure and spot on for flow. I've also tested a smaller Ryobi gas unit rated at 3100 psi and 2.3 gpm and it too was right on its numbers. I first tested the Active with the supplied 3.7 orifice nozzles and it produced 2 gpm at1000 psi which are good numbers for an electric pw on a 15 amp 120 volt circuit. This is a good volume and pressure for vehicle washing which is the market Active has designed this unit for. I was impressed and encouraged with those results and then tried the nozzle tips from the SunJoe which I believe are 2.0 in size. The 2.0 nozzles should produce considerably more pressure and I was hoping for just a slight drop in flow. Unfortunately with the 2.0 tips the Active could only produce 1.125 gpm at 1500 psi (1,687 CU's), not much different from the SunJoe and less than half of the advertised CU's on Active's website. The Motor on the Active also sounded labored at the 1500 psi pressure though it did not trip the 15 amp breaker. I tested the Active's 3.7 nozzles on the SunJoe and it only produced 1.5 gpm at 850 psi, considerably less than the Active. I do like the size and form factor of the Active 2.0 and the performance is very good for vehicle washing. Based on their advertised 3600 CU's I was hoping for more performance for other yard tasks even if I had to use the Active on a 20 amp circuit. It's apparent the Active has been optimized for maximum flow at 1000 psi on a 15 amp circuit. If you're looking for more cleaning units for deck or concrete cleaning you might be better served with units from Greenworks or others. For vehicle washing the Active is a great value but I knocked off 2 stars for the deceptive advertising and for not receiving a call back on my question. Update; It's been just short of a year with the Active 2.0 and I was using it to detail some areas on our deck prior to using my gas unit. The Active worked as expected for the first 1/2 hour or so of use and then the pressure and flow dropped dramatically and the the motor kept running when releasing the trigger on the wand. Water supply was good, nothing restricting the line, no leaks, etc. but it just wouldn't produce any pressure or flow as if the connection between the motor and pump had been compromised (motor rpm sounded higher than normal). My estimate is the unit has maybe 25 to 30 hours of actual run time mostly for vehicle washing so this was a surprise and a disappointment. The next day I called Active and was connected to a woman who took my information. She was not technical, only there to log warranty claims. To Active's credit they sent a brand new unit at no charge and it was the complete kit which I didn't expect so kudos to Active on standing behind their product. For the way they handled the replacement I've upped my rating from the original 3 stars to 4.

Been using the Active 2.0 pressure washer for detailing my 2025 GMC Sierra AT4, and after three washes, I’m really impressed. Paired with an MTM PF22.2 foam cannon, this thing throws out thick foam and delivers consistent, high-pressure output without bogging down or fluctuating. Setup was easy, startup is smooth, and the build quality feels solid — especially at this price point. I’ve used it with both GYEON Foam and CarPro Lift, and the results have been excellent so far. No leaks, no overheating, no complaints. I’ll be moving to Montana within the year, where it’ll face colder weather and heavier use, so I’ll plan to update this review after a full year of service. But based on current performance, this pressure washer is more than living up to the hype.

I had the original version for over 4 years before it finally bit the dust. And at 1800psi and 2gpm, there wasn't many jobs it couldn't handle. Now this new 2.0 version is definitely built much better. I love how small and portable it is and I prefer an electric pressure washer over a gas one any day. It only kicks on when the pressure washer handle trigger is pulled. So it has a pressure regulator. Electric versions are just more reliable IMO with much less maintenance. This is definitely worth the price, especially over some of the higher priced ones that don't really do a much better job anyways.

Really happy with the upgrade over big box alternatives. Very compact unit - glad I chose the 2.0 - sound level is reasonable, pressure is solid - pump only activates when squeezing the trigger, etc. I would recommend a short gun and you definitely need a real hose - the one in the box is too short to do anything useful - although it does seem of good quality.

A comparación de una karcher k3 esta tiene mejor potencia y el motor es más silencioso me parece un excelente producto

Good pressure. Works like a charm

A+
