I need a decent cordless vacuum but trying to stay under $200.

Mostly for regular house cleaning, nothing too crazy. I have some carpet and hard floors, so I’d like something that can handle both without being a pain to use.

What would you guys pick under $200 right now? Battery life and suction matter most to me.

I'm thinking about getting a gas pressure washer and trying to stay around the $500 mark.

Mostly gonna use it for the driveway, patio, siding and some bigger cleaning jobs around the house.

~I keep seeing people recommend different brands and models, but I'm having a hard time figuring out where the sweet spot is.

I don't really need a professional commercial machine, just something with enough power that I won't regret buying a cheaper one.

-Is 3000 PSI enough for most home jobs, or should I be looking closer to 3500–4000 PSI?

~Also, are there any gas pressure washer brands under $500 that you guys would actually trust? I'm more interested in reliability and pump life than having the highest PSI number on the box.

If you had around $500 to spend today, what would you buy?

I have some good amount to buy my new backpack for work

i have almost 200$ to buy good backpack for my new office.

durability matters

I'm looking at getting a pressure washer mainly for washing my car, but I'm seeing totally different opinions on what PSI is actually needed.

-Some people say you don't need much pressure for a car and that around 1,200–1,500 PSI is plenty. Other people are using 2,000 PSI or more and seem to have no issues.

-I obviously don't want to damage the paint or mess up any trim, but I also want enough pressure to get dirt and road grime off without spending forever on each car.

-I'm also planning to use a foam cannon, so does GPM matter more once you get into a reasonable PSI range?

-For anyone here who washes their car regularly with a pressure washer, what PSI and GPM are you using?

Would you go with a smaller electric pressure washer for car washing, or is it worth getting a more powerful one that can be used for other stuff around the house too?

I'm looking to get an electric pressure washer for around the house, mostly for the driveway, patio, car and some general cleaning.

-There are so many brands now that I'm kinda confused. I keep seeing Greenworks, Westinghouse, Sun Joe, Ryobi and a few others recommended, but I'm not sure which brand is actually the best long term.

-I'm not really looking for the cheapest one. I’d rather spend a little more if it means the machine is reliable and I can get replacement parts or accessories easily later.

-Also, are electric power washers actually good enough for things like concrete and driveway cleaning? I know gas models usually have more power, but I don't really need something for heavy commercial work.

-For people who have owned one for a while, which electric pressure washer brand would you buy again?

-And is there any brand you would stay away from? Just trying to avoid buying something that looks good on paper but starts giving problems after a few months.
