Title: Ashbys Turbo Brush
Post by: Steve Weatherley on June 15, 2005, 08:18:22 pm

Until now I have been using the Ashbys Turbo Brush for my pre vaccing. Who else uses this tool for their pre vaccing and what do you think of it? How does it compare to other vaccuums (please tell me what you use).

Thanks Ron - I knew you would reply as you are another Kent cleaner using Ashbys stuff. Personally I'm not sure that the upholstery vac is very effective, especially at removing pet hairs......what do you think?

funny you mention that. it is true. that sometimes on very short pile carpet after vacuum you can scrape your foot on the carpet and gather up alot of pet hair. that is just a problem with the turbo but most of the others as well. its good to have a sebo duo or something similar to back up. but its hard pet hairs. and dont think any one tool has really got the problem sorted. peace ron :-[

Ron and Steve,

Have you got that gadget that tricks the machine into thinking you are picking up wet soil.

Is it as good as Heppa Fillteration as my Vac genuienly hold an Allery Foundation Seal of Aproval award.

Chris,

Somehow, I thought it might be.  Cornwall mafia eh!!   :D ;D

Oh well, if you want me to sit and suffer, wondering why I had to pay 25 quid when you get it so cheap, I just hope you can all live with your conscience's.   :'( :'( ;D ;D

Not sold in my neck of the woods, they probable, think it won’t sell, hope they keep thinking that!

Have a contact totally legit but will only sell in bulk min I believe could be 250 or 500, I’ve got 15 customers who want one and 7 of the wife’s friends.
