Troy-Bilt Pressure Washer - A Review and Giveaway!

Let me say right from the start that yes, I'm hosting a Troy-Bilt giveaway, but no, it isn't for the pressure washer I'm reviewing here. However, I don't think you'll be too disappointed when you find out what is being given away.

For the last several years, I've been privileged to test and review several Troy-Bilt products. With one exception, I've been extremely pleased with their performance. And in the case of the exception - the TB57 Lithium Ion String Trimmer - it wasn't a case of how well it trimmed; it was an ergonomic issue. Using the thing was just awkward and tiresome.

This is exactly why Troy-Bilt has bloggers and home gardeners test and review their products. They want to put them into the hands of the common, everyday homeowners and gardeners, and then hear what we have to say to help them make an even better product. That's what happened with the trimmer - we spoke and they listened. That product was redesigned, taking into consideration what the reviewers shared.

Troy-Bilt 2700 PSI Pressure Washer

This year, Romie and I tested the Troy-Bilt 2700 PSI Pressure Washer and loved it, plain and simple. It worked extremely well and it was easy to use - fun, even! I have one complaint though. While this wasn't really an issue for Romie, I just couldn't start the thing. It has a pull-start and though they advertise it as being easy to start, I couldn't pull the cord fast enough to get it to take off. I had to have Romie start it for me. There's got to be a better way. (Electric start?)

That's the short review. Here's a video, showing me using the pressure washer for the very first time. I might add that this is also the very first time I've ever used a presser washer of any kind.

Would I recommend this pressure washer? Absolutely, as long as you're stronger than I am or have someone to start it for you.

Now for the giveaway! Last year, we got to test and review a Troy-Bilt CSV 206chipper/shredder/vacuum.  You can see my review here. We used it quite a bit this fall, and Troy-Bilt is letting me give away a CS 4265 Chipper Shredder (a different model) to a very lucky reader!
