Chinese junk I’m afraid. If you use it once or twice a month probably OK for a while. My buddy washes a few cars weekly and he had broken plastic pieces in 4 months. He bought the Plus version. YMMV. Edit: just saw @sashik3 posted about one in June. Maybe dm him?

Don't waste your money, mine stopped working within 2 months, found out it is a common issue with these, contacted the company in regards to the warranty, wanted me to pay more for an upgraded model with a warranty dated back to my original unit, told them I wanted my money back, which finally happened after a whole lot of obstacles.

Guess that answers that question.
Now we need an american company to step up and make a good quality one fairly priced.

Soooooo................sounds like we're better off just mounting that cheapy Ryobi electric washer on the wall with a hose reel for a lot less money.

100%

The giraffe was worse than using a normal water hose. Here is my current set up and I am very pleased with it.

Dirt Perfect (YouTube) did a video on one he was given. Seemed like a decent idea for a garage.

Hasn't shown using it since so I wonder how it worked out.

He's got a new million dollar shop and he goes with a Giraffe pressure washer. I couldn't help but laugh when he showed that. What a joke.

If you use it occasionally and get a good unit, I'm sure it works fine and the packaging is what is really nice about it. It's too pricey for what it is though.

I really don't think I want to wash a Giraffe with a pressure washer, I think they would protest me doing that. and that sounds like a specific task for a pressure washer. LOL
