hi guys, i currently have a stimvak metro HWE machine, i have been offered a Karcher puzzi 400 E machine at a low price, it is in very good condition and also comes with the pw20 power brush (which needs slight attention)
I wondered if any of you have any experience with this machine or very similar, as i am unsure on the reliability of this brand. I will be paying £500 for the above and want to ensure i am getting a good machine for a fair price, i have looked on the web and seen how much they cost new, but any feedback will be very much appreciated, as i cannot afford to buy a brand new machine at present.
Cheers peeps
Ian

for £500 you could buy a proffessional machine second hand, there is a minja on the forum for £395, the puzzi is just not man enough for full time work

Ian,
Dave is spot on.
The Puzzi is not a professional carpet cleaning machine and just as important you will not feel like a professional carpet cleaner using one.
Many times when I have taken my machine into a customers house they have commented how I have got a big machine.
First impressions count.
Cheers,
Doug

Big is impressive.
If thats your budget get as big a twin vac as you can and rebuild when required.

many thanks for the feed back guys, will turn the puzzi down and opt for a more appropriate machine, is the stimvak worth sticking with for now or should i trade it?
cheers ian
