DeWalt DWPW2400

Capable but awkward to store, per two verified sources. Wirecutter tested it hands-on and named it runner-up in its May 2022 pressure-washer guide: cleaning power indistinguishable from its Ryobi top pick, plus pneumatic tires and extra nozzles, but a cord wrap it called a "tedious and dreaded chore" and a wand holder that "hardly works at all." Pro Tool Reviews' September 2020 piece is a spec-led writeup with no hands-on testing and no measurements of its own. (2 sourced reviews, 1 lab-tested.)

Praised: Large 10-inch pneumatic tires aid mobility — Wirecutter found them easy to push over rough, cratered lawn; Pro Tool Reviews calls mobility a strong suit; Broad accessory set: turbo and soap tips plus 15°/25°/40° nozzles, and a removable detergent tank; Cleaning power adequate for typical around-the-house jobs — Wirecutter saw no difference versus its Ryobi top pick; Pro Tool Reviews calls it economical for smaller jobs.

Flagged: Cord-wrap horns sit very low and the 35-ft cord barely fits around them; Wirecutter had to crouch to wrap it, and once unwrapped the cord holds a shape memory and won't sit flat, creating a trip hazard; Spray-wand holder "hardly works at all" — the wand fell off nearly any time the washer was touched or moved; 1.1 gpm flow rate makes cleaning larger areas frustrating, per Pro Tool Reviews.
