I have been looking at offering ccarpet cleaning with my regular domestic customers.

has any one got any views on the george (like henry) 3 in 1 hoover/carpet cleaner/upholstry cleaner?

I know its a domestic cheapy hoover, but would it be acceptable for my domestic cleans do you think??

another daft question....from lisa

Put it this way, my wife thinks her  1993 cavalier is better than my e-class mercedes, because her car cost 20 times less than mine

Lisa, Dont even go there!!
the machine you tlk about, wont even scim the surface, it just wont do a decent job, if it did the guys on here wouldnt be spending around 2to3k on machines,
Sorry to be blunt

Hi Lisa

Fine for spot cleaning but not much else really

If you want to offer carpet cleaning services i would suggest forming a relationship (platonic of course)  with a local carpet cleaner and offering his services to your clients through you.

Lisa, as you have to carry it on the bus I think a George would be ideal for you.
