Gear before beer - buy nice or buy twice. It depends on what you need it for and how often you use it but its better to save a bit and buy a name because when it fails you can get bits. Cheap pressure washers are like cheap lighters - you throw them away when they run out of fuel. Cheap Jack will always say his has never failed buy even a Honda will need a recoil spring one day.

you need something like this.... bargain, even just for the engine, you can always add a gearbox/bigger pump at a  later date...
