John I'm a pretty reasonable guy, how about we cut to the chase on this.

Suggest to me the tests or parameters you'd accept as actual proof of cleaning ability, start to finish.

Lots of us have more than one of your machines already. Exactly what is NEW, other than increased weight and speed? Given previous tip-blooming problems, how are these agitation increases playing out?

Lee it blows me away that with all your opinion on these new Trinity machines that you are not aware of the main contributing factor for its difference and success.

This is very disappointing.
The last John G.'s thread garnered more than 10,000 views.

By the way, is it John G. or: G. (as in Gees!) John?
Which is the usual response to the claims being made.

Ridiculous. Any EXTRACTOR will out CLEAN a buffer/ grinder.

Follow up with a post padding with a $500 175 and god will be on your side.
Mikey, you are supposed to be the smart guy on this forum, and yet you post something like this?
You make a lot of claims, but no PROOF, try a little science and find the TRUTH..

Known so many big talkers like you C. Lee, however never been impressed when the cleaning started.
the Vario is only a Lowboy with sprayer and wheels, small orbit, old world, an padding and padcapping machine, not even close in results to a Trinity.
I saw the the video and frankly found it a little embarrassing for a padder. What a slow cleaning foamy mess.

You have a LOT to learn, and Lee S. funny thing is, you didn't believe what an OP did until you saw it either, maybe its time you come and see something totally different, then maybe you will be able to understand the differences.
I have done OP for over 40 years, i knew the trinity would be much faster, never dreamed it would do what it does, that is why Trinity users are head over heels with them, and those that haven't tried them, knock them or doubt.

Cut the hyperbole please and show why a bigger orbit and motor would make more than just proportional difference?

I thought John explained it very well . It is not about the motor but it sure is nice pushing them kind of amps lol. For you to understand how the different sizes of orbot performs i will give you an example of something you may be able to relate to. Say you got a small sticky piece of jam on a cut pile carpet. Now take a towel and try to wipe it out using the equivalent motion of the small orbot machines. Then try to wipe it out using the larger motion of the Trinity machines. With the larger motion you will actually pull the towel across the fiber and create the desired cleaning action.

How do you know the Orbot so well? Do you have on or used one before? Do you actually have any experience with anything other than VS and John G's "miracle tip bloom fixer"?

Amusing how a man of faith is using phoney science to falsely help sell his machines.

When scientific "fact" says we evolved, he says hogwash, we came from Adam and Eve. When scientific "fact", says rubbing a Q tip over a chemically laden carpet helps him profit, it's hallelujah!!, look at the Christmas miracle!!


Humans with a moral compass just have to laugh.


And rinse the bullshit away..

Mardie, please share what real world experience you personally have with other OP machines

thanks


..L.T.A.

Larry before I bought the Trinity Rock I never even seen an OP machine. I researched the OP thing for almost 2 years and new that John had been working on improvements so i waited and watched. There was problems with the first batch of hyper speed OP machines so I waited hoping they would get all the bugs out. Then Bingo everything came together with the new line up of OP machines now called the Trinity. Kinda like being a good hunter Ya wait and watch and when the time Is wright ya make your move. I went with my gut feelings and bought the Rock. Did enough hand towelling to know what toweling does and new that in certain situations that an OP would make my job a lot easier and faster. I would like to ring VSs neck for making me do all that hand towelling. I did not buy it with the intension of using it as much as I am. I loved my cimex but the OP has replaced it on all levels plus it does a whole lot more. This OP machine has far exceeded all my expectations on all levels from ease of handling, quiet smooth running, low chem usage and it is built like a tank but most of all it cleans amazingly well.

The only way I am able to relate to the speed and small head movement of all other OP machines was when I set my machine on speed one which is the equivalent of all other OP machines made. That lasted about 5 min. I was shocked at how slow it was. Seemed like a total waste of time and effort.

Mardie you've finally stepped up your cleaning. The 60's said goodbye and the 80's say hello!

Just a few short years ago you thought you knew everything. The VS was the best there was....now it's OP. Amazing what perspective does for you!

I'll give you a few more years and you sir will be a well rounded cleaner once you get your TM. :p

I have tip bloomed with the VS and Cimex but never with my Trinity Rock. You can read about my experience in my last post where I replied to Larry.

I have never said or thought the VS is the best nor do I think that about any machine. I have always known it is the combination of man and machine. Sure wish you could go back to my very first thread on MB. BTW I still use the VS when needed

Being EVERY Monday we interview a businessman that has gone from TM (some over 30 years) to trinities, kinda negates that 80's comment.

Falsely? And you run this bbs? PHONEY? Ignorance may be bliss, but as a leader in the industry you need to step up your game and get educated.

Humans with a moral compass just have to laugh.
You claim to have one?

When scientific "fact" says we evolved, he says hogwash, we came from Adam and Eve. When scientific "fact", says rubbing a Q tip over a chemically laden carpet helps him profit, it's hallelujah!!, look at the Christmas miracle!!
Fact? Now you are proving your foolishness, you can laugh all you want, but science in on my side, yours is still JUST YOUR UNEDUCATED OPINION.

For each one of those I could give you one that went from OP to a TM. That really proves little. :errf:

Besides I'd much rather have options to provide other services that a TM can do and a OP machine cannot (extract water, pressure wash).

But not those who went from Trinity to tm.... that is the point

plus no one has a problem owning ALL pieces of equipment, that is great!
But you have to go past the needs for CLEANING carpets to NEED the tm.

Maybe it having a 1974 counterbalance of mine on it, might give me a clue.



Do you have on or used one before?
Yes, I have used them, I have used ALL ops with the exception of the Vario, which is a lowboy which I have owned and used. Slow speed, old world.

the ONLY ones who don't get it are those who haven't run it... figures.....
