The BE Power Equipment P2318EN 2,350 PSI 1.8 GPM Electric Pressure Washer is built to deliver serious cleaning power in a compact, highly maneuverable electric package. What sets this model apart from every other electric pressure washer in the BE Workshop range is its 4-wheel 360° steering system — four lockable swivel wheels on a compact square chassis that allow you to roll, pivot, and position the unit in any direction without lifting or dragging. The low center of gravity design eliminates the tipping risk common in taller two-wheel units.
Powered by a BE 1.6 HP electric motor and paired with a maintenance-free BE axial pump, the P2318EN delivers 2,350 PSI at 1.8 GPM for effective cleaning of driveways, vehicles, siding, patios, and outdoor equipment. Whether you're cleaning around the house or maintaining outdoor equipment, this unit delivers dependable performance without the noise, fumes, or maintenance of gas-powered equipment.
The P2318EN is built on a compact square chassis with four lockable swivel wheels that provide full 360° steering capability. Unlike traditional two-wheel hand-truck style pressure washers that must be tilted and dragged to change direction, the P2318EN rolls smoothly in any direction with minimal effort. The low profile design reduces the center of gravity, eliminating the tipping risk that affects taller upright models.
The lockable swivel wheels keep the unit stable during operation, then unlock instantly when you're ready to reposition. This makes the P2318EN particularly well suited for cleaning around vehicles, navigating tight spaces, and working on irregular terrain where a two-wheel unit would be cumbersome.
At the core of the P2318EN is a BE 1.6 HP / 13 Amp induction electric motor equipped with a Total Stop System. The Total Stop System automatically shuts off the motor and pump when the trigger is released, reducing wear, lowering heat buildup, conserving energy, and extending pump service life.
Motor features include:
Paired with the electric motor is a maintenance-free BE axial pump running at 3,450 RPM. The sealed crankcase design requires no oil changes or complex upkeep, delivering consistent pressure and flow every time. A thermal relief valve protects the pump during extended operation, releasing heat if the unit is left running with the trigger closed.
The P2318EN includes three quick-connect nozzles covering the core residential cleaning applications:
Quick-connect fittings allow fast, tool-free nozzle changes. Always select the appropriate nozzle for the surface being cleaned to avoid damage.
The P2318EN includes a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) plug on the 35 ft. power cord to protect against electrical hazards when working in wet outdoor environments. The GFCI cuts power immediately in the event of a ground fault, significantly reducing the risk of electric shock.
At just 40 lbs and measuring 17" x 17" x 25", the P2318EN has a compact square footprint that stores easily in garages, sheds, or utility spaces. Integrated hose and wand holders keep accessories organized and immediately accessible. The 20 ft. hose provides practical reach for most residential cleaning tasks without the bulk of longer hoses.
The P2318EN is backed by a 1-year limited warranty from BE Power Equipment. Register your product to extend coverage to a 5-year registered warranty.
Each unit is functionally tested at the factory before shipping. Your pressure washer may arrive with minimal residual water or odor, which confirms the unit has passed quality testing and is ready for use.
Note: Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and guidelines when using the pressure washer.
The BE Power Equipment P2318EN delivers 2,350 PSI of residential cleaning power in a compact, stable, four-wheel package designed for maximum maneuverability. With a BE 1.6 HP electric motor, maintenance-free BE axial pump, and the only 4-wheel 360° steering system in the BE electric pressure washer range, it is the practical choice for homeowners who want to clean efficiently without lifting, tipping, or dragging their pressure washer into position.

To ensure the durability of your heavy duty pressure washer:
A power washer is a cleaning machine that uses a gasoline engine to power a high pressure water pump and nozzle. It’s used to clean driveways, decks, vehicles, outdoor furniture and more by spraying water at high PSI to remove dirt, grime, mold and other debris.Many models also come with a detergent tank for added cleaning power.
A power washer works by drawing water from a connected hose and pumping it through a high pressure nozzle. The gas engine powers the pump which pressurizes the water and then expels it through the nozzle at high speed to clean the surface. The water pressure is measured in PSI (pounds per square inch) and the flow rate is measured in GPM (gallons per minute).Many models also feature adjustable water pressure settings to cater to different cleaning needs. BE makes pressure washing easy with models available for light jobs and heavy duty commercial cleaning projects.
The main difference is that a gas pressure washer, known for its cleaning power, is powered by a gasoline engine, making it more powerful and portable, while an electric pressure washer is powered by electricity and is generally quieter and lighter.
Gas pressure washers are for heavy duty and large areas due to their durability, whereas electric pressure washers are for smaller jobs.
Your BE electric pressure washer is perfect for smaller jobs and built for portability, and we offer a wide range of electric models. Included with our electric models is a long extension cord for use anywhere around your house.
When choosing a gas pressure washer consider:
The required pressure (PSI) and cleaning power depend on the surface you’re cleaning:
Many pressure washers come with adjustable pressure settings to handle different cleaning tasks effectively.
Yes, a power washer can damage surfaces if used incorrectly. High pressure water can strip paint, dent soft surfaces or even cause structural damage if the pressure is too high or the nozzle is held too close to the surface. Always use the right PSI for the material you’re cleaning and keep a safe distance from delicate surfaces.
To prevent damage, consider using a model with adjustable pressure settings.
To ensure the durability and smooth operation of a pressure washer:
You can use a pressure washer in cold weather but it’s more difficult. The water flow rate in the hoses and pump can freeze and damage the equipment. If you plan to use your pressure washer in cold temperatures make sure to winterize it and store it in a warm area when not in use. You can also use anti-freeze solutions for pressure washers.
Some models are designed to use hot water, which can be particularly effective for cleaning in cold weather.
