The KH3 wand is the best wand for cleaning, but many more people buy the Prochem Ti wand because they are distributed in many more locations. As for performance, any wand that uses 2" tubing in it's construction is going to work better than the 1.5" tubed model if all else is equal. Best cleaning performance and quickest dry times come from using a 2" tubed wand with a SuperSlide glide on it. Any unit with a 45 blower or larger will see the most improvement in performance.

I've heard a lot of good things from a respected cleaner in Santa Cruz about GreenGlides on a ProChem Titanium wand.

 

He says that is the hot setup.

 

I think more people buy the PC Ti wand because they are real!

Yes I do. I picked up one of those wands in Vegas a couple of weeks  back just so I could make glides for them.

the last glide I got from ken

 

you actually have to pry it off

Only problem I've had with a glide is I wonder about losing agitation,and there's times when I think it's good for the wand to stick the carpet

like when removing stains.......but it might just be me.

one thing I will say is that every time Ken changes the design

they get better

Steaminpile,

You are absolutely right. Every time Ken makes a glide change they get better. Yet people bash him for always talking about a newer, better more efficient widget. I say support that Kenadian mind and let it loose. Who knows what will pop up next.
