These days it seems harder to find pressure washers that are built in the USA. Could it be that Americans have settled to buy equipment based on price? Pressure washers built outside the USA tend to have a limited parts availability, materials of inferior quality, and even no product support. Americans seem to continue to buy cheap pressure washers and once they fail you throw the product away and buy a new one. What I consider as a “throw away mentality”.
But let’s think about what purchasing a USA built pressure washer can do for our failing economy. If the company is building the pressure washer in the USA, it would employ Americans and keep the spendable income in the USA. If the materials being used are sourced in the USA, more employment and better parts availability. If the pressure washer is built to last by using components that can be rebuilt, employment for service support dealers throughout the USA.
Please consider these points when buying not just a pressure washer but any products. The price of a USA built pressure washer might be 2 to 3 times more in some cases but price is not everything. Think of it as an investment into the future of the America economy and future generations.
