Summary: Worked for three months then Broke!
Comment: I had minor problems with this from the start. First, the motor would buzz real loud, and only a stream of water would flow out. Then, one day something popped inside, and white goo spilled out all over my deck. I knew that wasn't good, but it kept working for another week or two until the lack of pressure issue returned and it stopped working altogether.
Poorly made. From what I read here, it looks like that cheap plastic part broke. Since I am past the one month return window, I am out of luck.

Summary: Do not buy a McCulloch pressure washer
Comment: McCulloch pressure washers have a fragile plastic part that links the generally robust metal motor and metal pump to the pressure switch that cuts power to the motor when pressure is attained. In operation, the plastic part is prone to bursting -- and if it does you can't replace it.
I have an older model that is just beyond warrantee. In NORMAL OPERATION the plastic part burst. I am told that my model is no longer made, that many people ask for this part, and they are SOL. I am also told that McCulloch pressure washers are still made with this plastic linkage.
This likely explains Jazzman's problem.
By the way, McCulloch was purchased by the Taiwan company Jenn Feng.

Summary: Great power washer for the price
Comment: I needed a power washer for cleaning my patios and to wash off the house to prep for paint and gave this one a chance based on the reviews and great price and am very happy with it so far. Today I cleaned a brick patio then a flagstone patio, both were dirty and the flagstone had some mold. I used the wide tip and making 6" swipes, the 140A cleaned them quickly & easily, even took off some dried caulking I got on the flagstone a while ago. It cleaned better than a 1700psi Karcher I borrowed from a friend last time I cleaned the patios. I am a tool person, I fix anything and everything myself and I would recommend this washer to any homeowner who wants to clean stuff once in a while. It's small but powerful. The included jet spray head has a rotating 1/8" spray that will get whatever the wide head doesn't. I did use it on the house a little and it will worked fine to wash off the dirt and spider webs in one foot swipes. I don't think it was too loud, no high pitched whine, just a whirling like a good vacuum cleaner.
Pros - inexpensive, small, light and powerful, two heads, can add soap to water line.
Cons - water line to handle is very stiff plastic tubing, handle can not lock "on"

Summary: You get what you pay for
Comment: I used this thing twice for about 6 hours total. The third time it simply lost it's pressure and would not stay on. I called the 800 number printed right on the unit and waited for 35 minutes... no answer. I don't know about the rest of you out there... but when I have invested too much time and the company won't talk to me when I call... I have to throw in the towel because I could be doing something productive. Chalk it up "you get what you pay for. What was I thinking? $78.99 for a pressure washer? It WAS too good to be true. I can't recommend this thing unless you only plan to use it once and throw it away. You That's what I am doing. Sorry McCullough... I don't have time to wait 35 minutes for you to tell me where to take the unit and then wait 10 days or more to get it fixed.
