JohnL : I don't care what you are using to clean with parking that close to a window and the building is just plain not right.  Taking control? Does that mean throwing all common sence out the window.  Taking that kind of control around here would get you but one thing. FIRED!!!!!!!! It is not the tennets fault  because you want someone to think you have a tm.Guitar

Maybe you shouldn't have told him, Doug. Let him learn the hard way that common sense is a big part of the service business.

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.

A recoil is a portable...one of the more powerful ones though.

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...

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
