Honestly rx20s are tanks and extremely well built

Rotovac runs smoother is well designed but the handle isn’t for me

Trex is good but doesn’t scream quality

Hoss ??????? Never used it

As Dan said so well (though I dispute his percentage. Its actually 99.99%)- A good Rotary's job, is to never leave the van.

The longer we're at this game, the cleaner and better the clients become, assuming you're a 2%r....

My fav is still the 360i brushhead

it sits deepest in the back of the vans cuz it only gets used a couple times a week

I would say the best rotary extractor is much like the best vacuum cleaner. The best one is going to be the one that actually gets used. In my opinion you can't get much better than the 360i with the brush head. It is light, doesn't take much space in the van and performs extremely well on heavily soiled carpet. The new RX 20 apparently comes with a brush head. It's an absolute tank but it's heavy as a tank as well. The only issue with the 360i is the handles can break easily if abused. If you're careful with your equipment it shouldn't be a problem.

Personally speaking. I am a 1%-er.

There's way less than 1% chance that the rotary will find its way out of the van. Currently the dust collecting on it in the uncharted parts of my van, is 50 shades of grey :winky:

For a portyhack with automatic pump out, the 360i with brush head lets me compete in quality With anyone. Not speed, but yeah I gettum clean. And it is light enough to tote up steps.

I guess that makes me a 0.05% because I don't even carry it anymore....

I know ahead of time when I'm going into a shithole.

My RX20 gets used twice a year, on a restaurant that should be cleaned monthly.

Using the CRB more and more lately, often when I would have broke out the 175. My granddaughter can rock it very well.

Justin has a Hoss, should be called a little pony, kind of delicate.

I have the 360i and the Hoss. The Hoss works good and sounds better than the 360i. The whiny motor on the 360i is annoying but the weight difference from the Hoss more than makes up for it. I like the Hoss, but it collects dust at the warehouse.

The RX20 is a good machine but most carpet isn't installed well enough to use it. I use the 360i on most jobs.

I know people don’t like Mytee stuff here and I get it.

That said, Mytee really did good with the T-Rex Jr.

I tried the 360 and I didn’t like it... too light and the handles suck.

It’s slow, but on piss jobs, nothing can match it.
