Sometimes too much heat and vac is just a simple case of overkill.  Of course, some inadequately skilled operators need the excess just to come close to measuring up to their competition I guess.

A mid to high level TM outperforms any portable, period. This is not to say that you can not do excellent work with a powerful portable (relative of course) but you will never match the vac/heat power of a powerful TM.

Wrong. I'm just being realistic. I use portables as well as truckmounts but it would be a tough sell for a national carpet cleaning company to say that their portable results are on par with those coming from truckmounts. 75% of this business is perceived impression.
