Title: Sapphire upholstery tool
Post by: oliver collins on February 10, 2012, 06:08:23 pm
Hi guys

Used my sapphire upholstery tool today for the first time today and i am very impressed with the ease of use the tool was so light cleaned at about 200-300 and the first suite was really dry by the time i finished the two other arm chairs,used it on a poof at about 400 psi and it seemed like the tool wanted to be used at a higher psi

All round a cool bit of kit

At first I liked it but the more I used it the less I liked it, it just didnt get around the edges as I liked or clean as thoroughly, hand tools and wands are personal in an ideal world you'd try before you buy.

we all buy equipment from time to time and regret it, however the Saphire tool is something that has made cleaning upholstery so much easier and is one of the best things i have ever purchased, the only downside is it goes through a lot of water, but the ease of use cleaning on forward and backward strokes plus no over spray make it an essential tool.

Hi good point

I would agree with that used twice as much water + dcf105 that i would usually use and still got the  suite drier than normal

Billy if you couldn't laugh you'd cry :)

Sarah Gary it isn't an app, it's a built-in function of the iPhone!! Press and hold down the round "select" button on the front of the phone and then immediately press the on/off button on the top edge.  This will save the screen grab to your photo collection ;) ;)

Gary can you stop posting with Sarah's profile.  I don't give a toss about forum rules, it's just very confusing for a man to be talking to another man when he looks like a woman :-\

Yeah sorry about that, to confuse matters even more I see Adam P is using MY picture as his profile pic, bit odd considering I left 6 months ago!
I deleted my account, which I regreat as was one of the first members.


When I am at Sarah's I come on here because I miss it, and gives me something to do while I'm here  :). Am allowed to use the account as long as I am "good" and put my name at the end.
Will it help if i just delete Sarah's pic ?  :)

Can understand how you feel reading sensible, coherant, interesting and funny posts and then having a birds pic next to them.

Your wish is my command Helen, I will no longer allow him to use my account to bother you good people, unless of course its to hassle Adam as thats actually quite funny  ;D  Having said that if you read any obscure rubbish that appears to be written by me then you can assume he hasnt taken any notice of me which is quite likely  ::)

LOL, what a barrel of laughs you  are.  ::)

Post by: Jim_77 on February 11, 2012, 07:07:58 pm
Oliver, not being funny but there must be 4 or 5 threads on this forum started in the last few months about the sapphire upholstery tool.

Why not use the search facility and read the other threads, instead of being lazy and starting your own? :)

Your initial post wasn't even a question, it just appears as a passing comment... could easily have been added on to one of the other threads already in existence.... just because they are old posts doesn't mean they can't be continued.... they come back up to the top again! :)

I was thinking of bringing up an old thread last week but never bothered because I thought it might annoy people.

Some people don't like old threads recycled, they consider it rude. It's an interweb thing ;D

Does anyone know where i can get a bag for my sapphire? Its valentines next week so im going to treat it.

Im after a bag similar to our hose bags but smaller, cant seem to find anything.

Karl, search eBay - you need a keepnet bag from fishing tackle suppliers ;)  Will cost about a tenner for a decent one, whereas a carpet cleaning supplier will flog you the same thing for more like 30

Len, I don't think I've been harsh at all mate.  It wasn't really a very conversation-provoking topic to start?!  Plus, note the liberal use of smilies :)  which means I'm not trying to get anyone's back up :)  or be deliberately abrasive :) :)

Craig, I completely disagree!  It doesn't matter how old the last post in a topic is... if the subject matter is still relevant it makes perfect sense to add a post on.  It is actually better forum behaviour NOT to keep starting myriads of identical topics - rather to keep the information in one place as much as possible.  Not only does that reduce load on the server, and disk space required (thus making the forum run quicker), it also makes peoples' searches yield much better results. which is a massive part of a forum's usefulness.

(The search button - something that nobody ever uses, instead just starting the 100th identical topic on a subject because they can't be @rsed to do a bit of leg work :) :) )

Forums are a huge, ongoing reference book.  Imagine if someone ripped all the pages out of a dictionary and stuck them back in with sellotape but in a different order... and also scribbled over a few pages... it would be a nightmare of a dictionary to use!  That's what it's like trying to use forums like this as a reference.
