[Joe H]

no

[robert meldrum]

Be excellent for chewing gum removal and possibly some hard surface cleaning

[Joe H]

Never heared of it never mind used it.

Are there not more mainstream machines available - or does this one have good service backup.

[Simon Gerrard]

You're not thinking of cleaning carpets with it, are you?

[timber]

yea, i am thinking about trying it out on carpets

[Joe H]

Steam alone on carpets is not good enough.
Never tried it with vacuum but cant really see it doing a deep clean.

Have you got any machinary at all for c/cing?

If not, whats the budget?

You dont want to start of wrong cause it will cost in the longer term.

Have you had any traing?
Training courses like NCCA (National carpet cleaners association) usually have machines on hand for you to try, and they explain the pros and cons. On a course like NCCA you may also get experianced cleaners so you glean off them.

Save your money. That is not suitable for a carpet cleaning business. You will be looking at £1500-£2000 for even an entry level machine which will do a decent job. Plenty of good quality machines on the second hand market either on this site or ebay.
