I am still using the one I bought when I was 16 to wash my dirtbike, which makes it about 16 years old now! I got it at Home Depot I think for $300. Not sure I would recommend one like I have for a side business though.

The two you linked look nice

I have one I bought from the orange and white store 10+ years ago and still runs like a champ. I'm not sure the ones today will hold up as well. I use to work for that company and things change in order to save money. From what I understand Triplex pumps can be rebuilt and could be worth your investment if you are going to use it for a business.

I have a shop near me that does nothing but Pressure washers. You can spend some $$$$$$$$!
