I Don't Know What These Guys Are Moaning About...
By Waldi B.
Billings, Montana
Review Posted 08/21/2016
I bought my G2400hh from a warehouse club, I want to say about 2003 or so it is now summer of 2016 and this thing has been a work horse around the house. I abuse the hell out of this thing and it always starts easily and the pressure will drill holes in tires, toes and concrete.
The reason I am on this site is I need a replacement pressure hose because the old one finally split.

We're glad to have you visit! Hopefully you found what you needed (and maybe a little more...).
Some of my co-workers still run Karcher's G2400HH too- they have stood the test of time.

Made me a believer once I used it....

Fast Shipping and Great Tech Support as always! Mated to a 2400 Karcher PW, it does a nice job cleaning concrete, you may have to make a 2nd pass, depending on how stubborn the build up is.
Well constructed, it is plastic but seems durable. Someone posted that they broke off a jet due to uneven surface, I can see how this could occur as the two spinning jets are relatively low to the surface. You just need to be cautious.
For the money, you can beat it. Nice addition to keeping up the home.

K 2400HH Pump is Crap
By Roger L.
Roseville, Minnesota
Review Posted 04/27/2012
I bought a Karcher 2400 Gas thinking this is going to be great, it has one of the best engines on the market to power the pump, a Honda, so how could I go wrong? But after a couple of years of minimal use, it would not power up to operating PSI unless I removed the tip from my wand and released the pressure in the line first. Then I could reinsert my tip of choice and pull the trigger, and this is how I had to use the power washer.
Then finally one day it started blowing water out a valve on the top of the pump housing, and I would have to say that now it is junk, because you cant just replace a single part, like a 50 cent o-ring, you have to buy a KIT, a KIT with parts you don't need and it costs you $84.00. What a poor way to service your product line, sell malfunctioning pumps and then rape the customer when he comes back for replacement parts. Don't buy Karcher products.

Using a pump saver product (any brand) will keep the o-rings lubricated & help prevent dry rot or freeze damage. The 2400HH was discontinued in 2005; so a rebuild 8 years later is not unreasonable.

No Pressure
By John
Morristown, New Jersey
Review Posted 04/14/2012
This unit has had problems with pressuring up since I bought it. For a while it would work if I pull started the unit while I had the pressure nozzle in the on position. Now it does not work at all.
I just noticed that other owners are having the same problem so I dont feel like I am unique but this does not help the situation. Since it is now out of warranty I will need to replace with another unit.
PWD RESPONDS: This model is at least 7 years old, and was made with an axial pump. Axial pumps eventually wear out and lose pressure. Unlike triplex plunger pumps, they can't be rebuilt.
The good news is there is a bolt-on replacement pump (8.920-004.0) available that should put new life into your pressure washer.

New Cat Pump (sent to customer service)
By Lin Beckham
Chugiak, Alaska
Purchased 06/09/2011 |
Review Posted 06/30/2011
Got the pump to replace a crappy Karcher pump on my pressure washer. The pump is very nice and works well.
The issues I had are the pump arrived without manufacturers packaging. No instructions, no service information, unwrapped and leaking oil. Additionally it was missing a plug on the back end of the inlet and I had to buy an adapter to hookup the hose. Not sure if this is standard issue for Cat pumps or if I got a recycled one. Only time will tell. Now I just need to dig up the servicing info and find some extra oil.
PWD RESPONDS: We don't sell "recycled" pumps. The pumps are tested before shipment, then drained; so some residual oil may leak into packing materials.
The assumption by the manufacturer is that the pump is being replaced by a professional, so they don't produce a step by step installation guide. We put a link to the installation drawing and the spec sheet on our web page (under the Specs tab, on the right hand side). This information is also available on CAT's web site- www.catpumps.com.
Bare pumps are always shipped without oil. Water pump oil is a 30 weight, non-detergent oil that is easily available at automotive or Big Box stores.

Won't power up
By Raymond P.
Ronkonkoma, New York
Review Posted 05/25/2011
Used it once, worked fine. 2nd time it wouldn't power up: repairs, $160.
Next season the o-rings cracked, and it wouldn't power up. It was repaired and winterized. I used today for half a hour, changed tips, and it won't power up. Total aggravation!!!
PWD RESPONDS: Karcher's warranty covers the cost of repairs due to defect in materials & workmanship; they don't cover wear & tear or misuse.
A pump saver product will keep the o-rings from cracking, removed hard water deposits, & act as anti-freeze over the winter.

Will not pressure up (sent to Customer Service)
By Wayne P.
schaumburg, Illinois
Review Posted 05/12/2010
The Karcher 2400 PSI Pressure Washer starts easily.
The first year I had it it worked fine, however after that it has essentially been a very large paperweight that I have had to move around. My big issue is that the unit would not pressure up.
The engine is great but the pump can not be cost effectively repaired. At this point it is cheaper to just buy another washer than to try to fix this one.
PWD RESPONDS: Even if the warranty has expired on this older model, parts are still available. It may be more cost effective to replace the pump than to pay for the mechanic's time to repair it.

KARCHER 2400
By bill gates
miami, Florida
Review Posted 03/24/2008
Good power washer for about 1 year and stoped building up pressure. Serviced and rebuilt with same problems. Called Karcher and they said they have had numerous complaints with same problems. The honda engine is one of the best engines i have used, excellent power and reliability. Karcher has the worst customer support and said they could not help since out of warranty. i would not recomend this powerwasher and DONT BUY A RECONDITIONED ONE!!!! NOTHING BUT A NIGHTMARE!!! Think about it why was it reconditioned in the first place? Obviously now you all know.

The Karcher 2400 PSI Pressure Washer starts up very easily. Strong efficient engine.
After a year, unit will not pressure up. Karcher replaced it. 6 months later, unit would not pressure up again. Replaced the wand, and all heads. Worked for another 4 months. It will not pressure up again.
What a headache... This unit requires a lot of maintanace.
PWD RESPONSE -- We've sold thousands of this unit. In fact, it's one of our best selling pressure washers. This is a unique incedent. We'll keep monitoring this model.

Review Posted 10/26/2007
I have had my Karcher 2400 for a couple of years, and when it runs, it runs great.
However, I have had multiple problems with maintaining the pressure. After the second use, I had to have the wand replaced (it simply broke in half) which was not under warranty.
I also had to have the unit fixed, so it would pressure up. Currently it is broken again, and will not pressure up.
Probably would not buy anther one. This machine is not used hard. In fact, I would estimate that I have used it a total of 10 times or less.
