Ken: John has been crying the blues for years about how fast his machines are,  those days are gone . We at HOS build a great machines that will last you for years to come and will make you a lot of money. John, Clark, and the other companies make good machines to, but for your money, just look and compare ours to the other O.P.'s out there. John is trying to sell machines, but we at HOS, our machines and owners of our machines do the selling for us. If anybody is interested about how we came about and little history about the O.P. go on to the worlds greatest carpet cleaning board. I just wanted give the other side of the story. Ken thank you for your support and enjoy your ORBOT

Tom, excuse me, but how fast the machines are is NOT in eye of use of the beholder. I am sick and tired of your LACK of knowledge of what you are talking about to give you an allowance on lying to customers.
 
Speed, do you understand what causes different cleaning speeds? Do you?
 
For a company that shows it roots back to the early 70's, when MY family was still owning the business, started by my uncle, sold and ran for years by my cousin and now you show those years as YOUR history? Seems to be a bit of a habit here of not laying out the truth.
 
Then when you finally built a machine you COPIED the ccs machine... wow, what great inovation!
 
Now you have the orbot and have I have stated over and over, it looks like a great machine, however SPEED is what I have preached, speed is what we deliver and speed is what is lied about by ALL the competitors, why? Simply because they don't know what they are talking about.
 
Side by side, the orbot will NOT compete with a CBreeze, it can't, do you know why not?
 
Until you know the answer, quit with the bs to customers.

In this day and age the one that offers a sweet financing plan wins.  Business is business and credit (not money) makes the world go around.
Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity?

I have cleaned carpets very well with a 17 inch buffer, a durry black bristle brush and flat bonnets.  I hear alot about the oscillating machines.  If my customer love my cleaning what would be the difference if I had an oscillating machine.  Does anyone have any info on the comparisons?  I would appreciated it.

I have no quantitative info on it, but in saying that I have anecdotal evidence (i.e. my own experience) that will tell you that once you start OPing and understand it, you will never ever go back to your rotary again!!

Encapsulation chemicals are key to good VLM cleaning.

Did you notice that 3 out of 5 approved methods in the S100 are actually VLM methods?  Guess the IICRC knows something about carpet cleaning.

The other two methods are all wet - HWE and shampoo.  They are still approved but in the minority of choices these days.

The market has changed here - 2/3 of jobs are for those either:
1) Empty house, listed for sale
2) Empty house, listed for sale but will be a rental in the meantime

These folks have moved to where they could find a job.  Target are quick and dirty empties from this point forward for a while.  That is where my marketing efforts go now.

CCS has high speed oscillators, those that use them, especially those who have owned competitor machines, KNOW the difference and it is NOT a small difference by any means.
