Has anyone got any experience with the Prochem 'Spot Pro' extractor, is it worth buying? Does it do a good job?
Thanks

I've got one of these and it is OK. Hard to say much more - it does exactly what it's supposed to. I bought it for those little jobs where it would be too much hassle to set the truckmount up.
I was able to get a 25% discount through my franchise network. Others will probably say that it is expensive - my discount brought it down to a comparable price to others.
The other factor tht swayed me was that being Prochem I figured spares would be very easy to get hold of.

We used a Spot Pro today to clean 59 dining chairs.
We had to get into a 300 year old cellar under a curry resteraunt to do the job. Tiny twisting staircase just wide enough to get a chair down, no chance of getting a porti down there and couldn't leave it above because of noise and danger of hoses. Very low ceilings and no nearby parking, just a loading bay!!
Job completed, stain free chairs, satisfied customers and
very pleased we had a Spot Pro :)

I've never quite stretched it's capabilities that far. I have cleaned a suite with in an old folks home where I didn't want the risk of anybody tripping over the pipes / wires to a bigger machine. I had to use some of the many "techniques" available to minimise the use of water but everybody was happy and I got paid just the same as if I'd taken ages struggling with the big portable!

I have three operators using various spotters and Prochem spot pro is one of them. we are pleased with the results but my advise would be always carry at least 2 variations of products from each stain category, hope this helps

I bought a CFR machine for £430.00 plus vat from SCJS in Brighton.
I am seriously impressed with it. I used it on a 1950's wing backed chair that was in scrap condition soil wise.. it took 0.5 Ltrs of pre-spray and 13Ltrs to clean and I got back 13 Ltrs in the waste tank!.

Hi Folks
Pete from JS2 here (part-time Carpet Cleaner). It sounds like Prochem Spot Pro would make a good 2nd machine from the comments you all make. Is the vac. good enough for those smaller jobs where the heavier portable would be hard to get in ? (I'll be looking around at the NEC show next week)
