I have one. Don't use it much unless restricted access means can't use the TM. But I used it for three years and it never missed a beat. The only thing that I didn't like were the four clips to keep the two halves together and the pump lacks power. Unless you have the 400psi model. I fitted a 225 psi pump to mine which transformed the machine.

Have been using one for a few months now seem like a good enough machine. cant say the same for the wands and hand tools that come with it, trigger mechanism a disaster keeps nipping fingers. the waste dump is also a bit of a pain if not dumping into a drain.

I have the Grace HP with twin 1500 watt vacuums and 400psi pump, I converted it to accept 2 " hose and I have run it from the van 140' away, I'm very happy with it.

hi mark i thought that would be the end result it was just the fact it was going on and of may have been a connection problem but had thought of just replacing to resolve thanks for your advise i will get the vac ordered.
