You forgot to tell him to slather tiger balm on his junk first, no wonder he didn't like it.

still happy with it? Thinking about ordering one, my gas powered gave up the ghost after 20 years.

eh I am torn right now

I have 8-10 hours on it, including the driveway, sidewalk, deck, patio, front porch, a few window sills, a boat once, and the fence gate. It works like it should, especially for the price

the gun started to leak and they don't sell a direct replacement online so I ordered something on amazon. but it is a different size connection and the included parts did not match it all up. So I ordered a different adapter, still can't get it to connect size wise. So I have one more to order, but if that does not work, then I assume I am dealing with a one-off size

and even ordering another gun and the adapters is almost the cost of the original unit.

where was the gun leaking? From the trigger or the connectors? Might have blown an o ring if the pressure was set too high for the nozzle being used, does it even have a pressure adjustment or is it just controlled through the nozzles.

If there's a hydraulic shop around they might be able to assemble a hose for you with whatever coupler end you want.

I have a Craftsman. Use it multiple times a year.
Gas. Still works great and fires up after a couple pulls. I've had it about 10 years.
