    Re: Carpet extractors

    How many motors, and are they 3-stage motors?
    Is it easy to get inside it and replace things ?
    Do they come with any tools? Stainless steel or plastic tools ?

    Re: Carpet extractors

    Both has stainless steel tools
    Tuffy has an upgrade for a steam pot style wand
    Not sure if the other has option for different style wand

    I`ll have to call up about heater element wattage and extra accessories

    I`m following this... I`ve been stuck not having a heated extractor due to the power demands. I`m still anther year or two out from when I can upgrade to a truck/trailer and equip myself with a generator

    Re: Carpet extractors

    Interesting to note that those detail plus extractors seem to use the same body mold as the mytee extractors, just different colors and I`m sure different internals. Kinda like Dupray and Daimer get their machine shells from the same place and put their own stuff inside

    Interesting observation for sure
    Got me thinking again if the mytee dry upholstery tool works with it
