I donno about you but unless you have a valve on your solution line wouldn't you have to shut down the machine to switch tools?  That would take longer I would think.

On a happy note my wife pulls out a turbo dryer and puts it on me when I do a couch.  Goss I love that woman.  It cools me down after hustling through a 3000 square foot home.  I hook up a cheap light weight upholstery tool and cruise on to happiness (45 minutes on a couch cruising along hitting every pad completely).  PS I do use a stair tool on the big flat  areas of a sofa from time to time. It cuts down Embarrassedon my work time. 
I can remove more spots than you can.

Cleaning upholstery is somewhat time consuming if your going to do a quality job. Most people will pay more for the better service and those are the ones you should tailor your market to. Regardless how you feel about consumers perception but not everyone is looking for cheap. They are interested in a quality job with competitive pricing.

If I did that I would go bankrupt very quickly.  I hear what you're saying about different regions being able to charge more/less.  I'm in a low cost area and still charge a hell of a lot more than "what the market will bear".  It's still not enough and I will continue to raise prices as I change my client base through the years.  My business is always transforming into something better, with better clients who appreciate (with money) my efforts.  In my area, you can hire an illegal alien to do the work for half the price, so why am I still in business?  Because I am a skilled professional, not a "cleaner".

I agree with Doug. Charge whatever you think the market will bear
