Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): shopping for small engines, briggs straton, lowes stores


Question
I'm looking for a gas powered pressure washer for around $400.  The Home Depot/Lowes stores have 3 power washers with the following engines; the Honda GC160 5hp, Briggs & Straton intek 7hp and a cheaper coleman powermate 2400 psi OHV 5.5hp.  I guess my main question is.....do you know the reliability of each?  I like the Honda but I've heard that this one has design issues.  I know the GX is the best but I can't spend $700 for a power washer.  Any advice is welcomed.  Thanks

Answer
 Hello Paul:

 Of the Ones you Listed I have to Go with the Briggs Intek 7Hp. The Only Problem this Engine is Having is with the Valves getting Out of Adjustment on Some Models. Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Thanks.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully
