ionics gear is top quality its the price that lets them down...very expensive...at the end of the day once a window is clean an ionic system can't get it cleaner

They have changed the design for the worse, it needs to be improved. One hazord is it topples over.

A good machine but needs to be modified in a lot of areas.

If it falls over, how do you prop it up? Serious question.

Mine doesn't as the third wheel is more towards the front than the folding models. Upkeeper have made a mod for this to stop it happening.

How can that bag hold sludge and watery stuff?
How can you lift it out or do you have to tip it?

The reason I asked about oil is because my upkeeper has a label on it saying to mix with oil which I thought was wrong. I'm using mine all day tomorrow on jobs I pile up for rainy days so it should be interesting familiarising myself with it for the first time.

There are three transparent sheets that couple together to complete a circle that the collection bag sits in to collect the rubbish. When the hoovering is completed, the transparent sheets are removed and the collection bag can easily be removed.

I had a label on mine saying fill with oil. Are you sure you haven't misread it!
