Title: Which Machine
Post by: Phoenix on January 12, 2006, 04:29:07 pm

We are looking to purchase a new carpet cleaner.  Although we do the odd carpet clean at the moment, With a fairly old machine (Karcher) only 1 litre capacity, I would like to get into it a bit more.  I want to use the machine maybe 2-4 times a week initially as an add on to our current business.

It will need to be fairly lightweight and portable.

Any suggestions.

Hey Cleaning Co

That is  the same machine that I started out with 6 years ago, mine is in the garage and I will use it for my own use.

Craftex in Taunton stock them,we use a sabrina for very difficult to reach attic flats etc,they are good for upholstery too.
They could do with a stronger pump but you do get what you pay for,you cannot compare the performance to a full size machine.

hi they come with a 135psi pump now,which a lot of full size ones hav,i think they perform really well ,well mine did as it only had 15ft hose so the suck was really good
