Hi there you guys,

 

My name is Brian and My wife and I are interested in using the Vonshrader carpet cleaner. What are your thoughts on this?

 

Thanks,

Brian

Hi Jobri

Von Shrader would not be my first choice, although many are in existence and making money with them. If you have already looked at pricing you will have had sticker shock.

If I have not discouraged you yet, we have for sale both a used but not abused Upholstery Cleaner and also the Von Shrader carpet cleaner.

They are $2,500 each Canadian Funds.

Thanks,

 

We are considering a few options,  and this helps us very much. My wife and I have found it very pricey as well.

We are both also interested in some type of training, so what would you recommend that is not too far away from Alberta?

 

Thanks,

 

Brian

Although perhaps I should not comment on another product like the one you had mentioned, I must totally agree with the renown Carpetologist on this one, period.

 

While anything and everything will "clean" a carpet (to a certain extent, or not) I, like Ted,  also would hate to see one make a mistake in this business and continue to play catch up.

Good Fortune to all and your business decisions;

Thanks Ed,

 

ever little bit of advice helps us decide which way to go with a product and what type of extractor to use. Carpetologist has many useful and helpful tips as well... thanks

We find this forum very helpful, so thanks!

 

Brian and wife

Hi Ed and carpetologist and everyone out there!

 

We are deciding  here and feel that the the dri-master is the way to go. Does anyone know the cost of the drimaster upholsetry tool. If anyone else can help with this decision please feel free to jump in any time. For now we are planning on doing residential.

 

Thanks again,

Brian

We do not sell that tool Jobri, I do recommend the Stealth Dry Tool on our web site. 

This tool is as effective as the dri master and is much, much more economical.

Jobri;

Purchase the Stealth Dry tool from Teds company. He will back it up and will be there to service you.

 

Good Fortune;

Wow,

 

Thanks so much! We took a look at Stealth and it looks great! Carpetologist, does it sell at the fibre clean store ? Otherwise we can purchase it straight from you.

regards

Jobri

Yes you can buy this from a Fibre Clean store. This will save you on shipping. If you run into any problems just give me a call.

 Carpetologist,

Thanks we appreciate your information. We are very excited about getting this business started. I am sure that we will have more question as we move forward on this.

 

Much thanks!

Brian
