I am in the market to buy a prof. grade extractor, I have been looking at the different models and cannot come to a decision.

I want a "the most bang for your buck" extractor.. The mytee lite, Durrmaid super 1600....?

Any comments, reviews, sug's....TIA!

I'm actually leaning towards the Aztec Hot Rod so far....

I just bought the Mytee Lite last weekend and it is awesome. You need to follow the directions exactly in order to get the water to the proper temperature. In addition, using a pretreatment product such as Folex is highly recommended. The Mytee Lite goes for $799 on most sites but you can find it cheaper. The only minor complaint I have is that the nozzle is a bit cumbersome...I guess I just need experience!!

Any time. If you have any specific questions, feel free to ask. Just want to add that I also have the Bissell Little Green Machine (Proheat)...the Mytee Lite blows it away.

Check out jondon.com, about $500 get you a 1000w heater and 55psi, 3 gal tank. They also have lots of chemicals for the pros.

I have a Mytee Stinger twin vacs with a heater, use it in my rentals,

I also have the little green machine.. lol But I am looking for something on a more prof level..

As of now it's between the Mytee lite 2... and the Aztec Hot rod.. I like the aztec because it's alot more compact.. it also offers 102" of lift, where the Mytee lite 2 only has 85".1400 watt heater, verses 1000watt, ect.... It looks like the Aztec offers a few more things than the Mytee lite 2, and is less expensive and more compact..

But... I still would like to get some more feed back, hoping maybe someone has an Aztec, and can tell me how they like it..

I recently bought an Aztec. I love it! it is very easy to use and fast. It heats up pretty quickly and makes cleaning interiors SOOOOOO much easier and faster! Definitely consider the Aztec in your choices. I detail out of a garage and I can get a whole car done with one tank for the most part. Which ever one your decide Im sure you will be happy

That's the one I've been favoring too.........I've heard good things about that one and the Mytee Lite..........not so much good feedback for the Durmaid though.
