Hey guys I am new to this website and for only being a member on it for a week I look on this site for hours a day. I have a start-up detailing business and I was going onto my next big purchase but I needed some input on which on to get. First off I wanted to know the difference between a carpet extractor and a steamer? Second I have been shopping for both for about 2 months and wanted to know what is the best for my buck. I am only a start-up business and money is tight right now so something in the $600 range is compatible until I get customer base. Thanks for all your help.
