power to spare!! [Posted on 2008-05-01]
I recently purchased the Excell Honda driven power washer and can't stop using it!! It has tackled all the jobs large and small with ease, Easy set up and use, makes quick work out of many jobs, from washing vehicles to cleaning fish pond equipment, this pressure washer does it all! Very happy with this purchase. I would recommend this unit to anyone looking for a versatile power washer.

Beware Getting This Item Shipped!!! [Posted on 2008-05-24]
I have not been able to use this product because FedEx must have turned the box on its side at some point and all of the engine oil spilled out. When I tried to run the thing, burning oil and smoke spewed out of the exhaust and the engine ran improperly. At the very least, it looks like the air filter is soaked in oil. God knows what other parts have been compromised by the shoddy shipping and or storage. So...THEY SHIP THIS PRODUCT WITH OIL IN THE ENGINE! BEWARE! Now I am forced to go through customer service hell to figure out how to return this thing, which has gasoline in it now. Why they just do not include a small bottle of oil to add before your first use is beyond me. Before you use the pressure washer, make sure no oil leaked out. If you see any sign of oil in the box or on the unit, SEND IT BACK IMMEDIATELY. Do not compound the mistakes by trying to run it and hope for the best like I did.

Great product but also accurate buyer feedback. [Posted on 2008-06-06]
Excell 2800 PSI 2.6 GPM 190cc 6.0 HP OHC Honda GC190 Gas Powered Pressure Washer #XC2800 The two reviews I read regarding the Excell 2800 power pressure washer were dead-on accurate. Just got mine today and as the one review states, I can't stop using this thing! Lucky the dog wasn't close by this morning! It is a very well made product with a Honda engine and exceptional pump, the two prime ingredients. The other review was also accurate regarding this washer being shipped with oil in the crankcase. I was fortunate in reading this because mine also had oil in the air filter and inside the shipping container. Having been alerted to this issue by the feedback, I check the air filter BEFORE starting the engine and cleaned up the oil with paper towels. Had a little smoke on starting but worked as expected after that. Customer feedback is THE reason I buy through Amazon.com and it worked again!!

DO NOT SHIP WITH OIL IN THE ENGINE!!! [Posted on 2008-06-09]
My unit was also turned upside down and oil was everywhere. After a week of trying, I finally got the engine to run. I had to remove the carb fuel bowl to dump the oil, the air filter and housing was full of oil and the spark plug was fowled. Quite the mess I would not have expected. As was stated by another disappointed review, common sense says send the oil in a bottle for the user to install.

Magic Wand [Posted on 2008-06-10]
Two problems. During shipping the crate must have spent some time on it's side as the cylinder was full of engine oil and hydrau-locked. Needed a plug out purge and now only runs with the air filter out. Not a fault of Excell though.

However, during the first use the gun/wand were dropped onto grass from waist height and the wand bent. On trying to straighten it the wand broke off. Pressure delivery tube in the centre of the gun has been threaded on the end to accept a brass coupler and the die-cut threads are almost through to the inside diameter of the tube so no wall thickness and a subsequent weak spot.

DeWalt/Excell reluctantly replaced the $50 gun but it still feels inherently weak and flexes under normal use. Otherwise the rest of the rig is heavy duty and the Honda motor runs well.
