I think Mark Robert in Ireland has the other but we both bought them second hand they were used,

I always thought he was going to build them when part of hydramaster but when that ended he didn't have the machinery to cut out the profiles. that's why he didn't continue, but that's just a guess

For FAO Cleaning Systems UK I like the look and build of the Hos Orbot. I would be interested to see the difference in appearance of a carpet cleaned with a rotary pad machine and a Hos orbot using the same cleaning solution.

TM) can't believe I still haven't tried
It yet.

Still got it, used it last Wednesday when my tap and hose pipe were frozen so couldn't fill the freshwater tank for the truck-mount, stuck it in the van and used it for the days carpet  cleaning, every time we use it on a domestic we say we should keep it on the van.... On man made fibres it does an acceptable job.

It only draw back is the weight, it's a 2 man lift in & out the van and you could never lift it up stairs.

Agree no good for domestic, the wheels on the hbot are large so stairs aint to bad .
Mike have you tried it with the big towel type bonnets? , if so how do you compare to normal white bonnet pad

Good to hear Karl managed to get it in time for you.

How did the lads get on last night?

Hi Jamie

They got on perfectly - Thanks for the stuff which you sent and for all the help!
