Most of us use truck mounts. Don't need generators

John;

 

ONCE AGAIN, you have shown and proven that the RECOIL 3 HP system can and did meet the challenge of superior cleaning under most any situation.

It may not look like a generic gasoline TM, but it surely will deliver the results as good as (at least) anyday. We have proven this for 28 years now.

 

Good Fortune to all;

Ed Valentine

NO..NO Adwa... Go ahead ... well you did... In my book it's not and insult.. why would you think that.. most portys come with 2-3vacs like the ninja.. i have 3-3vacs..heat... i love my porty... maintenance free..... results are the same as when i had my TM's...

Sure..not the TM power or speed.. but she's pretty powerful...

Some guys get a TM and they move the wand so fast their dry times and cleaning results suffer.... unhappy custy..

In the last 6 yrs (when i got my recoil) I have heard so many horror stories about the last guy who cleaned the carpet it's pathetic....

I always ask a new custy when I'm their..who cleaned it last time... and why didn't you call them back... took 2 days to dry and were in and out in 30min.. (rookies) and they had a TM..

It's the operator ! ! ! not the machine ! ! !

Sure.. A TM will get-r-dun faster...

Your talking to a long time biz man/cleaner here... Had 2 TM's... somewhat miss the speed and extra power.. BUT.. i sure don't miss the maintenance and high cost of parts......

I can use a kirby and get-r-dun and as clean as anyone with a TM...BUT it will take me all day.. LOL ! ! !Pimpin'

With the high cost of gas.. I am glad i switched...Customer satisfaction is what it is about... not your unit... they don't care....

While i was their cleaning her neighbor was nosy and i booked her and the owner was there too... Now i have the whole apt. complex...200 apt's.. such is life...

A portable John.  The front of it reminded me of an advance machine I once saw. If it was a TM I didn't want to insult you by saying that.
