WOW

My duo has siezed its bearings so got a oreck orbiter from Solutions to take its place.

What a machine! extremely thourough at agitation.

Also it is very versatile, you can use it for alsorts even sanding!

Cheers Goron

I recently used it to do a flat where unfortunately I could not use my HWE machine.  Just pre-sprayed with Blitz and Multi-pro, left for around 10 mins, aggitated, then bonnet cleaned with Activa pads. Carpets (low profile) came up a treat.  Customer was well pleased. Does have its uses.

which brush are you using Goron?

I've used one for years, they're great for stairs, just gripping the bottom.

This place does them http://www.0845floorco.com/shop/650/index.htm or you might be lucky and get some on ebay.
I recently bought 8 white terry bonnets for less than half price of what they are in the UK.

I agree with Mark, I adapted a 17inch drive board to fit and it was crap, much to light.

even the black brush is no up to much, you need to use the orange brush (but very worn in)
