About SIMPSON Pressure Washers
SIMPSON dates back to 1961 when Jack Simpson, co-owner of an Australian industrial cleaning and painting business, made his first pressure washer to assist his crew on jobs. The technology was ahead of its time and Jack Simpson decided to make the shift to providing industry-leading cleaning equipment. Over 50 years later and the renown quality of SIMPSON Pressure Washers still stands.
The main reason why SIMPSON products and equipment have stood the test of time is largely due to the high-quality parts and construction. However, the original pressure washer was made by someone working in the cleaning industry. Jack Simpson understood what was other equipment was lacking and what would improve his and his crew experience.
Today, SIMPSON Pressure Washers standout due to their high-performance engines, high-quality construction, impressive water pressure, and durability that stands up to extended use.
Other key features of SIMPSON Pressure Washers are the innovative features and user-friendly designs.

Parts & Performance Review
I will state again, SIMPSON Pressure Washers and equipment overall earns its high reputation from the high-quality parts and construction. Here we are going to highlight the top components responsible for SIMPSON Pressure Washers performance and reliability.
CRX Engines
One of the standout features of Simpson pressure washers is the inclusion of the CRX engine, which significantly enhances their efficiency and reliability. The CRX engine is known for its powerful output to provide the robust performance needed to tackle even the most challenging cleaning tasks. Whether you’re cleaning driveways, patios, vehicles, or heavy machinery, the CRX engine delivers consistent, high-pressure water flow that ensures thorough and effective cleaning every time.
What sets the CRX engine apart is its advanced engineering and user-friendly design. It offers easy-start ignition, reduced vibration, and lower decibel output so the cleaning process is more comfortable and less strenuous.
This engine is built with precision and high-quality materials to ensure longevity and dependability, and is designed for fuel-efficiency. All of this works together to reduce costs to users long-term, and provides consumers an environmentally-friendly gas pressure washer option.
Overall, the CRX engine makes Simpson pressure washers an outstanding investment for anyone seeking top-tier performance and durability in their cleaning equipment.
The engine comes with a 5-year warranty.
AAA Pump
These pressure washers use AAA pumps which are some of the best on the market. Each pump has an adjustable unloader that responds to changes in water flow, and a thermal relief valve to prevent overheating.
These features allow users to have more control over the water flow and protect the pressure washer for better longevity.
The pump comes with a 5-year warranty.
Powder-coated Steel Frame
SIMPSON Pressure Washers are commercial-grade all the way down to the steel frame. Not only are these steel frames durable enough to withstand any setting, but they are also powder coated to be corrosion-resistant.
Accessories
These units come with a full range of nozzles, an ergonomic spray gun, and a high-pressure hose polyurethane hose that is non-marring and is three times more abrasion-resistant than rubber hoses.
SIMPSON Pressure Washers Value
One thing that surprises me about SIMPSON Pressure Washers is that they are absurdly fairly priced for the quality, performance, and warranty coverage.
The SIMPSON Pressure Washer models we reviewed today price on par, some even below, the DEWALT Pressure Washer equivalent. Also, once you factor in the longevity features it is clear that SIMPSON Pressure Washers are a worthwhile investment to professionals and homeowners.
Final Review of SIMPSON Pressure Washers
SIMPSON has been an industry-leader in pressure washer and cleaning equipment for over 50 years thanks to their high-quality and high-performing products. That is why they are able to offer long warranties on multiple parts.
If you are in the market for a high-performing pressure washer, SIMPSON is a brand you can trust.
