i am new in the industry. i do mainly upholstery and area rugs. started in november. business is just starting to pick up but sporadic at best. i know i am missing the boat and need to get in to residential and commercial carpet cleaning but that can be costly and i am on a budget. it was suggested that i check out the orek orbiter. i did some research on this and for the price it almost seems to good to be true. any advice on this machine or suggestions on others. must be very portable as i use a car for transportation. much appreciated. Peter

Peteee; Be careful whenever you buy on "price" because in the majority of cases, you will make a big mistake and regret it. That is of course, if you can afford to lose the money. Contact, KleenKwip and ask "The Wizard" for his opinion. Otherwise, GOOD LUCK! best always; Ed Valentine cross-american.com

An Orbitor unit is more of a specialty unit that may not be so necessary starting out. Especially on a low budget.

Check to see if Ted has any equipment that he is will to rent to you on a monthly basis until you establish a steady income flow. It was how I started out with Kleenquip 34 years ago. You are close enough to Ted's Store that it might work.  ------------- Inventor of the Teflon Wand Glide and the Turboteck Rotary Air Duct Cleaners for TMs. |
