Hi lads, I have been running 2 years and started with a Ninja 400psi with vac booster and built in temperture booster. I thought it worth starting with a good spec machine. Results have been very good. Being relativelly new I tend to get a lot of work at the budget end of the market although this is improving, consequently some of the carpets are pretty dirty, the spec of the machine eats the dirtiest of carpets especially with the in line heat booster.
I am looking to buy another machine so that I have a quality back up unit and would buy another Ninja, but the Scopion seems to be getting some good press in the forums, the web spec of the Scorpion does not mention any heating, what do you users of the Scorpion do for heat.

They are so streets ahead of other Portys you can use cold water. ::)

So you got 400psi 3 vacs available already. I'd save my money.

Mark, you try so hard but... you just can't cut the mustard with the abuse side of things, you're not mean enough, or original enough  :-*  :-*

Peter if you're interested in the machine, have a word with the suppliers and people who use it rather than listening to knee-jerk reactions from folks who don't really have much better to say :)

You have probably sussed out by now their is a battle going on, between those who like Scorpion and those that dont. But their appears to be a deeper underlying reason with some as to why they are negative.
Some have never used a Scorpion yet comment very negatively, and in a childish way too.
Would be better if people only commented from their own experiance, in my opinion.
Jims advice is stable - talk to the suppiers AND the people who use the products - and thats good advice no matter what you are reviewing.


I am not going to fuel this debate on here at this point in time - its been done many times before that it is a bore now
but I am a Scorpion owner and if you would like more info from a user email me using the button on the left.
