Had one for a little over a year. Replaced a Windsor I cap so no real comparison. Great performance and results. only real issues are the cord hooks have all broken off. When talked with Whittaker rep about it he sent me the price list to replace them, will just wrap cord around handle. Debris tray will fall off when tilting back to transport but no big deal. Wish the spray tip was bigger. Over all, nice machine!
i broke 1 of mine off to when it fell backwards once. my cord is all kinked and rolling in on itself...not the best cord.
my debris tray fell off because there is a 1/4 inch strip of black foam with adhesive on it that holds the tray in place. the adhesive slowly breaks down. i super glued it back on over the Summer but it is starting to deteriorate again.
