Looking for...

One of those cheapier smaller hot water stain extractor vacuums. I have seen them before but cant find who makes them. I would LOVE to have a Aztec Extractor but there a bit pricey. I have seen a few regular smaller ones, that work just as well, but take twice as long to use. Anyone know what I am talking about?

Anyone have any experience with one of these? IE is it strong. Granted I know the Aztec and other large one's are 10x better, but for the price it will be useful right now!

This is only meant as a friendly suggestion.... not so much at the OP but for everyone that will read this into the future!

When I scroll through the most recent posts I look for certain things, sometimes it's not the topic itself, but the wording of the topic.... years ago I wrote this just as a friendly way to help others help themselves...

Re: Looking for...

Mirror,
I have a Bissell deep cleaner it works Ok it did what I needed it to for homeowner quality here are some pros and cons

Pros: it is light weight, easy to use, costs about $200 at WalMart and the proheat will get to about 195 degrees

Now for the cons: if you are using this for anything but an occasional cleaning it will get annoying, the holding tanks only hold about 1/2 gallon of clean solution or grey water so you are constantly refilling or emptying, second It truly is not terribly durable, the hose is only about 3-4 feet long so you have to litterally get the machine IN the vehicle with you and lastly the water sprayer trigger is a poor design and gets sticky often I have had the sprayer head apart on mine several times to clean and lube the trigger switch.

truthfully I am just limping mine along until I can afford to purchase one of the professional quality machines

Now I have a question Can someone give me some thoughts on which one I think I want to go portable soi think the Mytee 1600 is too big I was thinking Mytee Lite Durrmaid 1600 or the aztec hot rod help me out gang!
Mirror I hope this helped

Re: Looking for...

Sorry Mirror,

I forgot something, In my opinion if you are using the extractor a lot I would hold out and spend the extra $400 for the lower end pro grade machines that AGO has here
