Westinghouse WPX3200
Gas 212cc pressure washer, 3200 PSI at 2.5 GPM · Reviewed by Drew · amazon.com live, Sept 24 2026
Why it scored a 86
At $329.00 the WPX3200 puts 3200 PSI and 2.5 GPM behind a 212cc Westinghouse engine for less than any other gas unit here, and it tops our category on the rubric: value 90, reliability 86 and satisfaction 92 from a 4.6-star average across 10,960 ratings. The 3-year service, labor and parts coverage is solid for a gas washer at this price. The caveats are the usual ones for the money: an axial cam pump rather than a triplex, recoil start, and 63 pounds to move around. For a homeowner doing decks, siding and driveways a few times a year, that trade is easy to accept.

Should you buy the Westinghouse WPX3200?
The Westinghouse WPX3200 is for a homeowner with a long driveway, a deck and siding who wants real gas power without paying contractor prices. At $329.00 it ranks #1 of 10 in our Pressure Washers category. If you want a little more pressure and flow, the Westinghouse WPX3400 is $20 more. If you only wash cars, grills and patio furniture, the Westinghouse ePX3100 does it for $139.00.
Where it earns its score
- Most power per dollar. 3200 PSI and 2.5 GPM for $329.00 is the lowest price for gas power in the group, $100.00 under the DeWalt DXPW3300-S.
- Owners agree. A 4.6-star average across 10,960 ratings is the best rating in the category and gives the reliability score real weight.
- 3-year coverage. Westinghouse backs it with 3 years of limited service, labor and parts coverage and a nationwide service network.
- Ready out of the box. Engine oil, tools, a half-gallon soap tank and five quick-connect nozzles (0, 15, 25, 40 degree and soap) are included.
What to know first
- Warranty is the lowest factor at 78. Three years is good for the class, but the Simpson PowerShot PS3228 carries a 5-year pump and 10-year frame warranty.
- It is heavy. At 63 pounds with recoil start, it takes two hands to load into a truck and a firm pull on cold mornings.
- Carbon monoxide and spray safety. Run it outdoors only, never in a garage or shed, even with the door open. Never point the spray at people or pets.
