Never heard of the zipper I just you tubed it and it looks more like a double vacuum wand with a a row of alot of jets. There is no turbine to it. It seems like one solid bad boy unit great for a tech that cannot get the hang of using a wand.
I still like the rotovac 360 i ![]() |

Too bad Rotovac could not put the type of quality into their RV360i that the Zipper folks put into their wand. Now that would be worth the money.

I always wanted to get a zipper but the price always kept me away.

The Hoss needs to be modified with full width nozzles or it cleans way too slowly. Once modified, it is much better on CGD than the RV360i and I agree with Ken, it is much better built. I also agree that, because of the 5 vac head design, is more suitable for a big TM than a small one or a 2-vac portable.

Not as good John.
And you have to do all the work, which is the purpose to use higher dollar equipment in the first place IMO.

This is a forum we chat about it all. This is what we are here for to learn.
Looking at your posts you really don't chat much at all. We all purchase what our company needs therefore I agree with you to a point. If you don't care about why or what, then why did you post that you have one. After reading the posts we have compared and have been discussing the product of pros and cons. Sometimes you have to do a little more than just be able write a check. |

Let it go! this post is for the Hoss 700. Who cares if you got the rotovac or hoss or what dollars amount. I buy for what this company needs for the moment, staff needs and for its quality and production, cost is secondary. I dont care for the child chat. This is a business for adults not children.

For this $1000 extra the Hoss costs I would still prefer the 360i for most situations. It is still a very good machine. However, if my cleaning were 90% commercial or more, my choice would be the hoss.

Ok! This is what I would also look at the connection of how they run there chemical and vacuum hose (personal stlye) on you like your harley designed. When you use one for the first time you will know why I said that think , harley .
The other reason is Cha Ching ! What is the price difference? I can tell you this rotovac has been great? So far the sapphire removing flow restrictors ? ![]() |

Two thing are different.
First the electric motor on the Hoss is more powerful.
Second, the glide design is much more aggresive. That lets it both clean better and be more effective, especially in commercial cleaning situations.
