Title: Rocky floor machine
Post by: mark_roberts on September 19, 2013, 10:37:00 pm
Anyone use a Rocky floor machine for carpet cleaning.  Any thoughts.  Currently using a Texatherm machine and can't fault it but would like a second machine.

Also can weights be added to the Rocky?

Thanks
Mark

other options would be better surfactant match and longer dwell times.

Perfect for carpets as well.  We even do carpet brushes for them if needed.  Perfect speed and the torque is bang on as well especially with the offer on them at the moment.

But most will say I am bound to say this because I sell them! ;D  However, I have now put 100's of them out there and never had one single issue with them!!!  What other Mono Rotary Machine can you get a 24 Month warranty on???

I actually got round to turning mine on today and guess what ? It worked ;D

Thanks again for matching the offer you didn't have to but a true gent that you are it was no trouble for you

I'm no expert but IMO the rocky appears to be a well built pice of equipment

OK but you got to compare "Eggs with Eggs" mate!  The motor is offset which restricts working under plinths, you also don't get an even spread of weight.  Whilst at the moment it is on special offer at £600 + VAT with some suppliers how much does it cost with a brush and tank as well?  Finally it is fitted with an 1100rpm motor as opposed to the Rocky with the 1500rpm!
