Which is the best carpet cleaner? there are so many out there!!
-
Well I'm pretty good. :D
-
Dont be silly Wynne, the op clearly means a carpet cleaning machine.
Rug doctor or a Vax.
Dont get a bissel though, they are crap! IMO
-
brilliant. been looking at Rug Doctor, just wanted reassuring before spending money. Thank You
-
:o

Ashley (great name, btw), I'm 'fraid they weren't being serious. Rug doctors are pretty much the laughing stock of the professional industry.
-
Nearly! ;D

Be nice to newbies. Vicki TopMark x

Theres alot to learn, it's not all about 'a best machine' go on a course.
Alltec do good machines, but there all much of a muchness.
The best machine in the world won't fix a browning problem unless you know about the chemistry.

Looks like another 'alias' set up to begin the wind ups. The only thing I wonder is whether all are in fact the same.
Sure is tough to get approval as a new user.
Either way the mod's should get some revenge and 'out' the scoundrel / scoundrels.

Why do forums have to be so hostile?
It would never be like this face to face.

O, I'm not so sure ::)roll
Many moons ago I got into verbal confrontation on here with someone who, when I gave it back, played the 'you are picking on an old dying man' routine ....... long & short of it, was that he 'sent along' his buddy to deal with me at a cleaning show ........ we are mates to this day now ;D
Had other incident where someone was being abusive & made physical threats so I offered to meet up at a different cleaning show, so he could convey his feeling personally ........... I even walked about with three name badges (one was moving LED name tag) so he made no mistake but he was a no show :-X
Coming on under assumed name and berating people is about as brave as a kid in a playground, shouting names and hiding behind a teachers skirt :-\
-
ps ......... apologies to Ashley, for the thread hijack there :-[

Chris
I used to hide under the teachers skirt, may not be brave but very educational ;D
Sorry for thread hijack too, if it is genuine i suggest adding some more details to profile to get a better response.
-
Probably the best start to a thread ever ;D
-
I take it back he has filled out a profile, well until he corrects my spelling i am going to accept he's genuine ;)

I think he's genuine but he needs some advice, oven cleaning from £25?! All staff CRB checked, can't be true.

nice start to my first thread, it was actually a genuine question!!

What's your budget, target market, etc?
-
havnt really got a specific budget, i just dont want to be ripped off. target market is mainly domestic, holiday parks etc... this thread has opened my eyes and feel little bit stupid so i am looking in to going on a course.
-
also where you get oven cleaning for £25 and all staff crb checked from?
-
you should have a buget, in mind , at the moment their a loads for sale second -hand which would do at present , if you stick with the main ones like the one above or altec , prochem ,or others top brand makes , times are hard for every one at the moment , hench why theirs so many up for graps , also be very aware it a very hard and tiring job , thats way may start up ,then pack in ,they never relised it was hard gaft , even with the best equipment ,

Sorry Ashley confused you with another new start that posted.
You must have a budget or know how much you can afford? £500 or up to 4k.
We'll be selling our prochem power plus soon.
Yes definitely book yourself on a course. Prochem, or NCCA if you want to become a member, also look on Tacca for requirement to become accredited.
-
Most (electric, portable) machines are pretty similar, once you've got above karcher, vax & rug doctor. I'd go for any 2nd hand twin vac that looks OK and comes with a good story. You'll need wand, hand tool, hoses, some brushes, and some chemicals, as well as the m/c itself. You might be able to do it for £2k, I'm not really in touch with2nd hand values.
Alltec run courses, or try NCCA.

Joe, this appears to ne mis-directed at me.
Nothing hostile in my post, twas meant to be rather tongue in cheek and was certainly posted on the assumption that this was yet another pebble in the water post from a non-person, i.e. a made up poster out for a giggle.
I am always happy to be constructive with my posts but there have been an increasing number of wind ups recently, of which I still suspect this is one.
If not, then maybe a tip for the OP would be to try the search facility and read through a few posts before such a wide open (ahem, and obvious wind up) question is posted.
Over and Out.
