IMO  you don't need a particularly powerful pump on a spotter. In the past, I have rinsed spots very effectively with a spray bottle, bone spatula and wet pick up vac.

You need a spotter to be very small and compact. Again this just an opinion, but the Karcher Puzzi is too big a machine for a spotter, both to carry and space wise in the van.

If I required a small compact spotter, I would be tempted to carefully look at the Vax Commercial VCW-02 Compact carpet washer. Small footprint, lightweight and, OK,  the water delivery is very low, but there are ways as mentioned above. If, however, you required a little more versatility from a spotter such as the occasional dining chairs or even a bathroom, the Karcher would prove to be more attractive.

Like many here though, I do have the advantage of experience in the techniques required for spot and stain removal.

Safe and happy cleaning :)

Years ago 2nd hand ones were like hens teeth I think people have adapted to others as the spotting machines are quite expensive.

Yes Arthur, I do rate the Bravo. Being from Prochem is a good enough reason to consider it as an option.  I personally have a Prochem SpotPro and I'd be lost without it.

My post above was in response to the enquiry about the Karcher Puzzi.  I've had three over the years and they proved to be excellent machines. But my view of a spotting machine is that they need to be small, easy to carry along with other spotting kit, and have as small a footprint as possible to save space in the van. Hence my suggestion to look at the Vax. It's performance falls short of both the Karcher and Bravo as a cleaning machine, but for spotting it may prove to be ideal. It has a small footprint, low cost and easy to carry.

Safe and happy cleaning :)
