Wi | Not all Hotsy is made in Mexico. I attached a photo from ours showing the assembled in USA sticker. Says made with parts from US, Italy, China, Japan and Thailand. I could really care less but since you brought it up and it seems to be a big deal.
The machine was a couple hundred more than yours. Has auto stop and auto start as well. 6 year warranty. Lifetime on manifold. I'd have to read back through the details I guess to break down motor, pump, coil, etc.
The brand didn't matter to me, although I do like the design of this machine and how it keeps people from adjusting things. Service is what matters, we all hated fixing them and hated having them broke every time we wanted to wash something. The hotsy dealer had no complaints fixing our machines so they got to deal with keeping those maintained and running and when the time came for a new one they got the business.
I'd buy a German karcher any day, and looked at the hydrotek ones quite a bit awhile back. We used to have an Alkota as well. The electric one you can kind of see in photo below is an Allied, it's been good also. Had an allied gas engine diesel burner model and it was okay. Redid a lot of it and sold it to a neighbor and he's happy. This Hotsy has been good so far, but not too old. I should check the hours on it once out of curiosity.
