Should you buy the Craftsman CMEPW1900?
The Craftsman CMEPW1900 fits a buyer who values tidy storage and a long cord for car washing, patio cleanup and light walkway work, and who likes everything to hang on the machine. At $189.00 it ranks #9 of 10 in our Pressure Washers category. The Westinghouse ePX3100 gives more pressure for $139.00, and the Greenworks GPW2003 matches its hose and cord length with a confirmed 3-year warranty for $194.99.
Where it earns its score
- Organized storage. Nozzles, hose, cord and wand all store on the frame, so nothing goes missing between uses.
- Long reach. A 25-foot hose and a 35-foot cord match the Greenworks GPW2003.
- Certified output. CETA certification means the 1900 PSI and 1.2 GPM figures were independently rated.
- Solid ratings. 4.4 stars across 1,963 ratings puts it level with the Sun Joe SPX3000 and Greenworks GPW2003.
What to know first
- Warranty is the lowest factor at 55. The listing does not state a warranty term and we could not confirm one from Craftsman, so we scored it at our 1-year level.
- Light on pressure for the price. 1900 PSI is slow going on concrete and decks, and retailer listings show a 3-tip nozzle set.
- Spray safety. Never point the spray at people or pets, and plug into a GFCI-protected outlet.
Our verdict
The Craftsman CMEPW1900 scores 76, a Fair Buy, on Satisfaction (88), Reliability (80) and Quality (78). Buy it if onboard storage and a 35-foot cord matter more than raw pressure, and your jobs are cars and patios. For more pressure at a lower price, the Westinghouse ePX3100 (83) is the better electric pick at $139.00.
