Best to search previous Threads / posts.

A forum is a knowledge base.

Prowler does not have a dirty filthy stinking waste tank to clean out.

13hp Prowler is portable in as much you can get it in/out of the van if needed for servicing/repair.

Top rate supplier in John and Lyn

I wouldn't go back to any sort of portable.

I carry 500 ltrs of water. Turn up, solution house with inline sprayer into house, spray, rinse suck and go!

(very simplified!)

with the prowler work seems easier. As joe says great back up, honda engine easily serviced and parts that bolt on.

Have a trapped nerve in the back that was affecting my left arm so much I was not wanting to do as much work, shame to have a big van and great machine in the Prowler doing less then it should.
Sold the unit as a whole to Simon in Isle of Man, who has since sold it to a guy in Bolton.

Would I get a Jag?
Absolutely, reports are coming through now of its performance.
Got a tel call yesterday from a cleaner (one who has stopped posting on here cause of the fiasco the other day on the "Jaguar" thread), he has a Scorpion now for 3 years, but the Jag beats it, so quiet, a large pump with good flow, 2 very powerful vac motors, such that he can turn pressure up for the real dirty carpets, and the carpet will still be dryer then the with the Scorpion (and its pretty good with the Scorpion).

I well know some of you wont like what I just written - but thats your problem, tough.

We have one that we are not really using much now, it's a cracking machine but the majority of our work requires the use of a porty so the Prowler is sat doing nothing most of the time.

I'm willing to sell if anyone is interested.

I would get it fully serviced and checked out by John Kelly at Restormate before hand, comes with 2" hose, whip line and solution hose also has a bypass wand which is currently with restormate getting a new bypass valve fitted.  I can even include a upright 400ltr or 250ltr tank and connections.

Give me a call on 07790596782 or email me ian@lionheartcleaning.co.uk
