Switched back to Rotary Shampoo and use the porty for extracting of stain treatments, tile and grout or where I want to offer clear water rinsing.  Since the shampoo is a 7 ph no need to neutralize.  No need for a TM, not interested in fire/water damage jobs.

Contrary to the rumors, shampoo doesn't leave behind residue.  Polymer technology made sure of that.

So to any dumb ass who thinks they will succeed with a portable, I say nothing.  Go for it. I wish you the best.  FOOL!

I like to say every system is both the best and the worst.  It all comes down to technician over technique. 

I believe the people at IICRC think it is the other way around.  Of course, they don't clean carpets which sorta makes their opinions shallow, lacking substance.

I use a storm chaser portable and run a 300 dollar average ....per job,  but maybe i'm a special breed????  A truck mount is good to have but it's all about how good the tech is..period.

My understanding of Bait and Switch is that if you advertise a product you don't have and then sell the customer on what you do have, that is illegal.  Yet, if I get this right, if a company advertising something they do have (or have the ability to perform in our case) and move the customer to a better product or service with more power and features, that is not illegal but is referred to up-selling.  But I am not a lawyer.  I just heard that somewhere.
