Electric Power Washer - Recommendations?

Looking back at the pictures of my patio when it was new makes me realize how quickly the concrete has become dirty. So, I'm looking into buying an electric power washer.

It looks like Sears carries a 2000 PSI electric power washer, but it has very mixed reviews.

Does anyone have any recommendations on who/what I should be looking for in an electric power washer?

I have an 1800psi Karcher that I have had for about 4 years now.

It's fantastic.

I use it a few times a year, and it's worked great every time.

I can't speak for electric ones but I just got a Northstar cold water gas unit for Xmas, 5.5hp Honda engine - 3000psi and I like it alot. Used it this past weekend to get sand/salt of my vehicles.

3000 psi?!?!? On your car?!?!?!

I hope you are using a wide angle attachment and not a 0 degree
