That was good. Nice house by the looks of it, basketball court and golf buggy too  ;D

Would love to do something similar for my new site.

The video says it all.  If anyone wanted to know the difference between a porty & a TM now you can see plus the added bonus of the underpowered underdog getting the life sucked out of it by a TM in spectacular style.

Come on Richie you know it wasn't a real challenge! the RD benefits from aggitation at the front end they didn't push it, not sure if they had any chem in the tank, no pre vac, no pre spray.

Good video just a bit cheesy, a more professional way would be to get rid of the kid and get a professional looking man to do it with the starting bit being the chemical in the machine etc.

Looking forward to the porti though.

Thanks for all the great comments so far.

Shaun: You probally didn't watch the whole video all the way thru? We filled the chemical in the tank as shown in the video and presprayed.

I am glad everyone thinks it's funny! :)

Stay tuned for our next video coming soon!!!!

Yes it's amusing, but there was no contest. If you were up against John Guerlink or a proficient operator of a modern powerfull portable ........................you would be thrashed on productivety, by one and there would be little to choose between the three on results.

Yes it was funny and I said so, but if it wasn't supposed to be making a point, then there was no point to it!

i think spindle is saying the point is it was meant to be funny, and funny it was, especially when he went arse over tit trying to push it.

They did pre spray the rug doctors hi traffic cleaner (watch again) also they used the rug doctors aggitator after the wand. though it was done with homour, from what I could see it was fair too.

Also having been called out after custys rug doctor attempts a few times its about what I'd expect.

Very entertaining, look forward to the next one! ;D

i've only been going 3 months and twice now i've seen a rug doctor in the hallway, twice cream wool, 1 i went to the carpet was still wet, both were still rammy. both weren't rammy when i'd finished, rug doctors are only good for maintenance cleans if that.

Hello Tre,

I saw the video in full but we don't know what's been added, obviously we have to be critical  ;D but what about the next one?? can we have a TMer lifting up a porti with his vac hose?

That would be funny!

Also from a professional point of view what about from the TM in the van to the customers carpet a full carpet clean, pre vac to pre spray follow the pipes to the van and switch on and the rest is history.
