Where reviewers disagree Single-source: only Wirecutter (Doug Mahoney, hands-on, pressure-gauge tested, updated 2026-06-05) yielded a readable review body for this exact model, so no cross-source comparison is possible. All five quotes and the 20-foot hose measurement were re-verified as literal substrings of the fetched text (38,108 chars). Wirecutter gave only relative pressure figures for the Sun Joe (no absolute measured psi printed).

Sun Joe hose length (verified vs other picks): 20 feet
The Sun Joe cleans well at a good price, although it has the traditional pressure washer bulk.
giving us pressure readings that were higher than the Westinghouse and runner-up DeWalt models, but a little less than our top pick
The tall, narrow body of the Sun Joe washer makes it unstable and tippier than our other picks.
The hose of the Sun Joe is only 20 feet, compared with the 25-foot hoses that all of our other picks come with.
But it lacks the general-use rotary nozzle, which has become a standard in residential washers.
