The only complaint I have ever heard of the Rotovac is that it is slowwwwww.

haven't tried glides for a Rotovac but I know they did wonders for my RX as far as dry times and cleaning ability

 

I have krazy kenny's RX skids actually

 

a wand will simply never out clean a rotary extractor IMO

Tom,

First, I don't have a Rotovac so I'm just repeating some hearsay.

In November I spent some time in a class with 2 gents who purchased a Rotovac package during late Summer. They have been using it for all kinds of commercial applications and also some residential. The only complaint they voiced to me was that they had trouble with very low profile glue down carpet and that the carpet generally was remaining very wet for extended periods. They were in class to evaluate a low moisture system to supplement their Rotovac, not replace it.  They felt their employees had  to remain on site for several hours after the cleaning was completed to allow the air dryers ample time to dry the carpet; time when they could have been productive on a 'next' job if the carpets were less wet. But I suppose this could have been the operators as well. See what others say.

All,
We are currently looking at getting a Rotovac and wanted to get some of your opinions on the produce. We have heard that it doesn't work well on commercial applications. Considering that we will be focusing on the residential businesses, how does this product clean and dry compared to the standard wand?
Thanks in advance...
Tom
