Title: ninja vs exel
Post by: Susan Dean (1stclean) on March 16, 2008, 12:41:21 pm
if you have a standed ninja the 135 psi one and a standed exel which would be better ???  they look to have the same spec so surely they would do the same job ?????

Yup. Adequate / insufficient. Go for the ninja if it must be a choice of these two. Better upgrade options.

Anyone planning on getting a new machine at EXPO? CFR are bringing out a new one.

Exel ways a ton! never used a ninja. The exel served me well for years I still use it every now and again but it kills my back. Within the next month or so I am going to get a Rhino as back to TM.

Ninja is easier to handle, by using a step I found loading/unloading  the ninja very easy and it takes up less van space.

I would have thought a Rhino from Mr Kelly would be the best option for a backup machine.

If you drop a Ninja it will survive a excel will not. Not that you are likely too, but what I am saying is the body work on  a ninja last a lot longer and looks better longer. A nicer colour too.

just not sure what to do was thinking of not carrying a porty even and if i cant reach with the t.m. just move the job too somebody else  or rebook it so that my porty crew can do it  ???

Never tried a Ninja but I still like my Exel, had it out yesterday to do a 3 piece suite that was down a little alleyway.   

If I'd just had the Prowler I would have had to park on the main street and run out about 150' of hose and even then not sure whether or not I would have reached.
