I have a similer machine to the one you mentioned, plus a porty plus a T/M plus other stuff. It does come in handy for smaller jobs with tricky access and has its place in my arsenal, for anything more than a single fireside chair/recliner and would be using porty..cuz of vacuum/capacity. Useful piece of kit. Simon

I have had a numatic 572 for years and found it an excellent machine for car valeting. Depending on the size of the car and the amount of soiling it can do a whole car on one fill or can take up to 3 fills but generally one fill is pretty near sufficient. I rarely find use for it in houses though as it gets in a state being used outside and have not found it neccessarry.

I have a Craftex Sabrina it has a similar spec to what you are taking about. I use it mainly for spotting and sometimes a bit of upholstery if i really need to. It is no where powerful enough to clean a carpet though even a small one. I would rather encap .

thankyou for your opinions guys yes it appears you always need the power behind you best for small jobs with blower at hand i should imagine i read one spotter comes with heat ;)
