Complaint Review: HD Power Washer

I purchased an H1610 power washer from home depot about 2 years ago with the intention of power washing my deck.  Well, needless to say, I did not get around to it until about a year later.  I was able to power wash my deck ONCE.  A couple of months later, I tried to use the unit again and it will not turn on at all.  I really think that Home Depot should be ashamed to sell these horrible power washers!  Home Depot has a reputation to uphold and they really should stop selling these power washers.  A one year warranty on an item that is probably used about once a year is not adequate.  How is the consumer supposed to find out that something is wrong with the unit within the one year warranty when the unit sits unused for up to 8 months at a time?  The fact that I was able to use this item ONCE is a tribute to the low quality of these products sold at Home Depot.  I tried to contact costumer service twice by email and received no response.  When I finally was able to get a hold of someone by phone, they told me to take it to a lawn mower repair shop!  I am not going to pay over half the price of what this unit cost me to repair it when it only worked for me ONCE!  I have definitely learned my lesson--do not purchase any of these power washers from Home Depot ever again!!!!!!!!   This power washer was cheaper than the competitors, but it was NOT cheap enough to be disposable!  Trust me, spend the extra money and do not buy any power washers associated with hdpowerwasher.com!!!!!!!
