Looking to buy a Pressure Washer anyone bought one that's reasonable priced and wont break down after a few uses

I would suggest that you only buy a washer with a metal pump body.
Lots of washers have a plastic pump body which can split if left containing water in the winter.

This is to be used even if the washer isn't subjected to freezing temps (which it should never be). It lubricates and protects the myriad of valves in the pump section. Most hardware and DIY stores should have the small (one pint) cans...
