Just wondered if anyone has used either the Duplex or smaller of the Rotowash machines for Dry System cleaning.

One has the additional benefit of steam and they give fantastic results on a variety of surfaces, plus of course they cost considerably less than some others.

I have owned / used the bigger Rotowash, which is an excellent machine, but too heavy if you have back problems.

I have a duplex 460 and its alright if you keep it clean, the holes along the bottom of the water tanks that the solution dribbles out of tend to get blocked and you end up with a streaky carpets otherwise.

I have also used the steam one to clean an altro floor with the black brushes and it was quite possibly one of the best methods I have found for cleaning altro floors. I tried it on a carpet with the grey brushes and it was not too great in comparison to HWE although I have not used any other low moisture methods so I can`t really offer a true comparison.

Used the rotowash and found it ok. Any decent contra rotationg brush system will do as they are all mostly the same with the exception of the  Sebo duo as I found it a bit too light and the brushes too short for deeper piles carpets.
