no body should knock anybody's equipment-TM or Porty--It's the person using the equipment that really matters. An average cleaner will be an average cleaner no mater what equipment he or she uses, a great cleaner will be a great cleaner no matter what equipment he or she uses]]> Sun, 09 Jan 2011 15:01:51 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6771&PID=162737&title=truckmount-or-portable#162737 <![CDATA[truckmount or portable? : I had a TM but went back to a...]]> https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6771&PID=162609&title=truckmount-or-portable#162609 Author: NJPSR

I had a TM but went back to a porty and my

orbot for encapping. The places I clean and where

I need to put my vehicle it just works out better.

I use both. I don't know about your TM but mine is much more powerful than the porty. I will choose the TM over the porty whenever the situation allows. Obviously the TM can't clean a condo on the 10th floor.

unfortunately the everest cannot run itself because apparently you can't either as that machine should sell itself?

WGAS!

Do you by chance promote for John Lababa? Seems like you do!

it is very simple minded to make such an assumption just because I recently bought an M5 and booster. I even criticized both in some areas, although my overall impression of the machines is very good. I like John LaBarbera, all of him.!

Hey, Just asking a simple question to a simple minded person?

It is very simple minded to write a statement and follow it with a question mark. Let me guess; you did not get such high grades in English class. For the record, we have been enjoying excellent dry times with the Mytee M5 + AirHog Booster.

I am selling the home I am in and had my company come and clean my carpets.

I am pissed they did not use a truckmount.

My carpets are soft from the cleaning BUT a couple of areas where we walk with no shoes or socks still show a loss of texture that I am sure would have come out with the high heat of a truckmount. The carpets were also damp in a couple of areas overnight.

There is no doubt in my mind that TM is where its at. However you need to reach a different pricepoint to make it profitable.
