Why would you want to clean with a single bend?
Could somebody just clean my carpets!

No. The ability of a wand to recover water is dependant on the wandhead and lip design, not wether there is 1 bend or 2 in it.

Dennis;
 
If you are worried about recovery, try a single jet wand. It will allow greater impact; less volume of water, which may solve your problem.
 
Single or double bend wands can be debated.

I like double bend for its agility to get under the corners of beds, desk, etc.

It could always be worse. I mean you could be some carpet stain being emulsified by pre-spray all the while watching a wand spraying really hot solution aiming stright for you.

IMO, single bend are very uncomfortable, can`t beat an S bend, stainless.

I have a Ninja as back up and use my 2 jet Cleanco wand on it, works great..
It`s not how far you fall...it`s how high you bounce back up...

There are many ways to improve recovery from a portable. Using a single bend would not even be on my list! Downer

Here's an idea: buy some pvc pipe, stick with your single bend wand and you should be good to go! Not sure how your going to make those corners though. Tongue Your recovery should improve. Let me know how you make out.Tongue Oh Ya! I almost forgot, remember to clean your filter. Tongue

Dennis_is_Gay.........why don't you just suck on a PVC Pipe and make sure you get all that Goo in your mouth ......just the way you like it Tounge You can have all the recovery you like.
 
What a stupid question from someone that calls himself a Pro...........Single....or......Double Bend........Do you mean on 1 knee or 2 knees Tounge  Butt Shake Is that what you mean JOHN  ( Dennis_is_Gay )
