no catch they are not quite as good as a full price machine, but at half the price i would say they where at least 90% as good. And great for a backup for yout TM.

got three vans with tm and three rhinos 135 twin vacs

500psi like to drink water like a water drinking machine on max.
 
135psi is what youd expect

Had my Rhino about 6 months now, only had a Ninja 135 psi before this to compare it to but that had all the bells and whistles, hot solvent, auto fill/empty, etc which made it a real heavy beast so the difference in weight is a relief, in and out of the van is not problem nor is dragging it upstairs which I seem to have done a lot of just recenly (flats).
Performance wise I'm extremely please, I have the 500 psi model and found it powerful, providing generous heat, full tank cold water (if no hot available) 20-25 mins with the adaption to heat fully. Pre-vac and pre-sray during that time. 
Used with 75 ft hose so far to date and performance didn't seem to drop by much.

Cheers guys. I sold my Extracta Excel as I found it way to heavy & bulky, I'm hoping a Rhino will be better.

Keep up informed Max - I have an excel too and would happily exchange it if another machine came along for a thousand quid that was better!

Had my Rhino just over a year now, still running well, and many satisfied customers.
