 2 options for portables


    I sell ninjas and prochem machines, if you want an up spec machine then go the ninja, if you want a standard spec go Prochem!


       I am totally unbiased as I sell Prochem, Century 400, Hydramaster and Chemspec.  How good is that! :) :) :)

Having had a Ninja. Alltec, CFR and used Prochems, I would have to say that the Ninja with the 400psi pump option, HD vac motors, rear silencer and autofill is an excellant machine.  Small, portable reasonably light, quiet and robust i would recommend it no problems.

Of course you could always try the Eclipse 500 or the Scorpion 3 both in standard form more powerful than both the ninja or any of the prochem range, but then I am bias

Best regards Nick

Hi,

The ninja is a fine machine, but the main seller in this country, has not such a good name for customer service.

If you do a search on this website you'll find many stories,of them letting people down.

I have found a website via the NCCA, masterclean, that sells them for £1099inc VAT, which seems pretty good.

Regards

Paul Pearce is the God of cleaning and he uses Alltec machines, thats good enough for me.

If Pauls the god whats that make Derek, John, Ken etc?

Maybe he uses Alltec because he works for them or as least supports them on different levels.

No problem with Ashbys service so far.

I have been dealing with Ashby's for many years, and I have always had excellent service from them.

Sorry it was not ment to be a slight on the other Gods of Cleaning.

One comment for you though, does that not show that all portables are much the same or am I wrong. If all the leading guys use different machines because they may or may not be contected to a company what does that show you. Product is much the same but the customer service is what you pay for.

Alltec Portables work for me and my Customers, the website may not be the best but Chris and the support staff are great.

Some will give you a hernia faster than others!  ;)

Check the weight as well as the service arrangements before you finally commit to any machine.
