AR Blue Clean AR383 1,900 PSI 1.5 GPM 14 Amp Electric Pressure Washer with Hose Reel

Pressure washers have a variety of uses for today’s homeowner and commercial business owner. They can be used for spraying down driveways, washing out your rain gutters, hosing down the siding on your home and more. In some cases, you can even use the AR Blue Clean AR383 for cleaning graffiti off of your cement walls and other surfaces. If you are looking for a basic power washer, the AR Blue Clean pressure washer may be the ideal product for you and your budget.

The AR Blue Clean AR383 offers 1900 square inches of pressure with 1.5 GPM and a Triplex axial piston pump for added versatility. The trigger gun is the main control for this washer which means the user has total control over the spraying. Also included is a 20 foot hose along with a hose reel to help keep it rolled up. The 30 foot power cord also makes it portable for moving around the home or wherever you need to do some power washing. This pressure washing machine measures 15.1 inches by 31.4 inches by 11.8 inches and it weighs approximately 30 pounds.

One of the drawbacks to the AR Blue Clean AR383 is that the plastic hose adapter tends to leak water. After awhile, the leak gets so bad that the power washer is generally unusable. However, this can be easily and inexpensively fixed by replacing the adapter with a brass hose adapter for around $10. Some consumers have also reported that the hose is made from a stiff plastic which can easily get tangled and it is also difficult to manage it which can cut down on its ease of use and its efficiency.


For something more durable, the Universal Pressure Washer 2.5 GPM @ 2900 PSI with hose and AR Pump is a more expensive model that is made for more frequent use. It measures 19 inches by 24 inches by 24 inches and it is manufactured by MTM Hydro. It has a durable rubber powder-coated steel frame and it uses about 2.5 gallons for each minute of use.

For the type of power washer that the AR Blue Clean AR383 is, there aren’t many other models that are lower on the pricing scale. There is a handheld version from the same company that is comparable – the AR Blue Clean AR118. This particular model offers 1,500 PSI and it is easily carried around. It is designed for lighter jobs and infrequent use and it uses approximately 1.5 gallons per minute.

There are several power washing machines to choose from. You can find a wide selection of electric pressure washers, gas powered pressure washers, high pressure steam cleaners and other machines that use high pressured streams of water for optimal cleaning. The AR Blue Clean AR383 is one of the more affordable options if you aren’t planning to use it very frequently and if you have light cleaning duties to perform around your home.
