Anybody used the aquarius pro valet machine on upholstery/spot removal/one roomers/flats ?

if so any feed back appreciated.

Cheers Paul

Paul, not got one myself but did look at getting one as a spotter a while back.  Whilst perfectly adequate for spotting i would think it is far too small to handle one rooms and flats and wouldn't look professional. If you use the search function i think you will find several threads within the last 12 months with regards to the aquarius and also on the other channel

I've had one for a couple of years and apart from the plastic lid being prone to breaking if something in the van lands on it I can't fault it.
It hasn't broken down (touch wood) yet and if I have needed replacement parts the seller has been excellent.
I have used it for spotting mainly but occasionally get it out if I'm doing an eot in a flat and can't use the van mounted storm and with good prep work it always works well.
I do take the point that it may not look the most professional of machines but have used it so many times now with good results that I don't care about that aspect of things because of the repeat work that I have got after using the machine.

This is me cleaning a rug with mine this morning it's the only water extraction machine i use as i am Dry fusion. I use it on all upholstery jobs but it needs filling to often so i will be on the lookout for a bigger machine at some point maybe maxi size it's great as a spotter though.

ok as a spotter but the only fault I've had from day one is it's not safe to carry by the handle on top as one of the catches on the side has never been right. As gary says their very flimsy in build and could break very easily but looked after their not too bad... That in said I wouldn't buy another one.

Not a bad little spotter and have also use it to clean upholstery.

packs away in the van easy too and does not take up much room...

Put it in a plastic crate, with all your spotting favourites - A self contained box, works for me.
