Electric Pressure Washers?

I last bought a pressure washer 10 years ago. I recall that there was nothing good written about electric models and I bought a nice gas-powered Briggs and Stratton from Home Depot. It started every time and I was happy with it, but honestly, it was overkill. You want to slice a picket fence in half or bore a hole in concrete, this was your machine.
I'm now in a small town house and just need light deck, window, shutter cleaning once or twice a year. I'm seeing much better reviews/ratings on electric models than I recall from past research.
Between the cost, storage space, gas/oil hassle, portability, etc, I'm leaning away from gas-powered.
Anyone have any personal experience with sub $150 electric pressure washers?
