« on: March 29, 2013, 11:27:13 pm »
Looking for an Airflex Turbo if anyone knows of a decent one about. I upgraded from one to a Jag 6.6 a couple of months ago but I just cant get on with it.

Thanks

Will, we did the same, just got an Airflex and the guys love it.  There's an Airflex Pro on ebay at the moment which I think can be upgraded by Cleansmart to a Turbo. 

This would also be a great starter package for someone new starting up or wanting to add carpets to their business.

Thanks chaps, I thought I was upgrading, and to be honest the performance is excellent. But for me the build quality is shoddy and every time I switch on the vacuum motors or the pump I'm expecting it not to work. Someone on here described it as Tupperware with vacuum motors and a pump inside - I couldn't agree more!

I have now ordered my new machine, so I will definitely be selling my Turbo.

The price is £1500 and it will have a new vac and pat tested.

I will also include a 2 jet wand within that price.

Collection only from Surrey.

Steve, thanks for your reply, I'm really interested and £1500 is a fair price, but I need to sell my jag first.

So to anyone thats interested I have a Jag 6.6 for sale - anyone that offers me a decent price can have it. Make no mistake, I'm not trying to 'flog' it because it's knackered, its simply doesnt work for me. It's two years old, had both vac motors replaced (both around 6 months ago). I am the second owner and I bought it from Joe Hatton in Cheshire. I had it serviced and PAT tasted by GP Cleaners in Gloucester 7 months ago to make sure everything was in order. Im not going to lie and say its only been used for 10 hours because it hasn't, it cleans 5-10 carpets a week, but, the care I give it is exemplary. I use a lint hog, I always use de-foamer, only water or acid rinse in the tank, the waste tank is cleaned out after EVERY job and the vacs are run dry for 10 mins after EVERY job. No real bumps or scrapes to the outside but has the usual age related marks. Put simply, it's a fully functioning machine that I don't like, but I'm sure someone else would. Any viewings/test drives are more than welcome (Gloucester) and I'm happy to answer any questions on 07769698856 or wlcarpetcleaning@gmail.com. If you want any pictures or a video, no problem, just let me know.

No problem Will - I've got to find a space in my diary to drive up to cleansmart to have the machine checked over, a new vac 3 fitted and pat test.

Might not be able to do that until week commencing the 15th, so no rush.
