Look into the Mytee Lite (8002) or Century 400 sensei. The lite is about half the weight of the HP60. Another possibility is a carpet spotter machine.

I was at Target earlier and they had two handheld machines for claening carpet. One was a Dirt Devil and the other was a Bissell, that claimed on the box to have "the power of an uproght extractor in a handheld unit". they had a solution compartment that sprays it on, then vacuums it out. Are these what you guys are talking about, or are these crap? They both were right around $39.00

I would be interested in those as well... The one from Walmart.
I have heard the Mytee light doesn`t heat the water as well to add my 2 cents to the original question.

The seach function is your friend.
Currently this discussion involves machines ranging in price from $39 to $1200!
What are your needs and expectations?
Remember, you get what you pay for...

What does everyone recomend if you are doing say about 5 interiors a day? I want something that is reliable. I understand you get what you pay for, so I want to make this puppy last.

5 interiors a day?
Are you in a detail shop? If so, then get the biggest unit you can get since portability isn`t an issue.
Check out the last two units on this page. Make sure you`re capable of handling the power those units takes. That last one has two 20 amp plugs to run that water heater.

I personally have a Sensei carpet extractor. It got a 5 gallon solution and 5 gallon reclaim tank. It also got one inline heater. It isn`t as big as those units above but I have to haul it in my truck and run it off people`s house power or a generator.
