Mr. Steamer:  It is a dirty job but someone has to do it.  If that iswhat your clients want then guess what?? That is what you have to give them.  Am I wrong?

Seems your customers know what YOU want to hear steamer.

 

Don't bother trying to goad me into an arguement, your poll is WORTHLESS, common sense would tell you that, however common sense is not any to common anymore.   :~)

 

Besides YOUR customer have no CLUE what OP is, My customers ALL know what HWE is... humm, so HOW accurate is YOUR poll?

Mr. Steamer:  I guess when the day comes when you can't beat them I guess then you have to join them.  I don't think you have anything to worry about yet.  Gas up the van, turn on some tunes  and hit the road.

I would not have HWE in my home, and I have BOTH!

My carpet is 12 years old and we BEAT the crap out of it, it still looks close to new.. the proof is still in the pudding.

 

Lee, you were HWE before OP, how much MORE do you charge for OP? If you WANT customers to use it you should charge 25-30% more for it.

 

If you don't understand that one Steamer I will explain it too you!

some people just dont know any better

Of course if your a one method cleaner YOUR 1 method is the best.

Last time I cleaned my own carpet I used the opportunity to try a prochem
powerglide, a Drimaster and the wand, just to keep an open mind and try
to learn.

The only method I would not try on my carpet is anything that is high
residue and soapy or anything that I have already determined is inferior
because that would be a waste of my time.

Otherwise trying anything else may possibly make me a better educated
cleaner than my competion and for my own good.

Would I try OP on my own carpet . Yes, because it would give me the
opportunity to have a hands on experience of feeling the machine , see
how easy it is for the operator and also see how long it stays clean , dry
time etc.

It would be nice to know that firsthand. Also I think it is important that
you use , or have used, any method on your own carpet before you
expect a customer to have it used on theirs.

i think you should offer your clients a choice hwe, bonnet, op, what ever. if the only tool you have in your toolbox is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
