Karcher Carpet Cleaners
« on: January 01, 2014, 08:08:44 pm »
Hi, having read a lot of the threads on carpet cleaning and equipment used etc, Prochem equipment seems to be one of the top makes, what about Karcher carpet cleaners? would anyone recommend these and if so, what machine specifically would be the best of their range? Thanks in advance.

Think you will find karcher own Prochem, but if it coloured yellow, but DeWalt has a following (yellow) owed by B&D ;D

roger, karcher is not a option when it comes to pro machines generally
look at prochem,alltec,ashbys etc,how much do you want to spend?what kind of work are you doing,all these things come into it
good luck

Hi Gary, thanks for your reply. I will definitely go for one of the makes you said, Prochem would be top of the list, i was just curious about the Karchers, I would imagine id spend up to two grand for a good machine, i would hope to get one of the makes you mentioned for that. I would be doing  industrial carpet cleaning.
 Thanks again.........

 Perhaps  ...  A Karcher    :D

 I actually like this design  ,  the ole 175 hasn't seen much development in decades .
