if it's a minger!!!!!!!!!!!! the rotovac! I have been doing an indian restaurant for the last 8 years, first off with 2 exel machines with scrubba attachments used to take about 6 hours with 2 people working.....then changed to TM took about 4 hours, last week used rotovac with TM and finished in 2 1/2 hours and a much better clean. but if doing mainly domestics the wand is much easier....until I come across a trashed carpet then out comes the rotovac.....as long as the floor is level!!! ;D

My answer is :      "that it all depends."

It depends upon the type of carpet, and even perhaps the amount of open space to be cleaned.

There are many times that using the right wand will be much faster and easier; other times that using the rotovac would be more advisable.

The deciding factor maybe if the operator has some extra spendable money, the more tools in ones tool box, the better.

Those are my thoughts.

Good Fortune to all;
