Prefered spinner tool for T&G

[carpetcleaner]

What spinner tool do you prefer for T&G? If you don't like spinner tools, what do you use?

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Turbo Hybrid!

 

[dealtimeman]

I agree by far turbo hybrid.

 

[Mikey P]

I don't know about By Far, but yeah...

 

[dealtimeman]

I do, and I mean by FAR the turbo hybrid!

 

[Desk Jockey]

We have a couple of each and the seem to clean the same. I like Turbo more only because the handle feels more solid.

"By far" yeahhh quite an exaggeration!

 

[hogjowl]

I like whatever's in the van.
By far!

 

[Desk Jockey]

Only a fool would think its the tool...or maybe I should say only a tool could be such a fool.

 

[dealtimeman]

The perfect two shots between the tools by the bafoon above, you see how the turbo will get under the toe kick as to where the sx suction hoses won't allow for it.

I have not used the newer one yet but a few that have, have commented they still like the turbo better.

 

[dealtimeman]

I do appreciate the early 1900s era pics by the bafoon above, thanks BAFOON!

What spinner tool do you prefer for T&G? If you don't like spinner tools, what do you use?

All I use is a tile wand and have no desire for a spinner

The only spinner I've used is the mytee one with the stupid single handle that was too fat to get under toe kicks

When I found out that a tile wand half the price of a spinner provided the same results as a spinner, and was able to clean right at the edge of the floor/walls, I haven't had the desire to buy a spinner

I'm just patiently waiting for Tom to hurry his ass up to get the tile swivel wand ready

So what you're saying is you don't know but "hear say" is what you are repeating?

No no Mr Dealtimeman, we want the words straight from the horses mouth, not an a*s. Wrong AMnimal.

 

[dealtimeman]

Listen, I understand you come from the age before time and you have seen dinosaurs but no one cares, AND I MEAN NO ONE!!!!!

Look at your pics and you can see.

Even Mikey has stated before that he like the turbo much better in many ways.

If he has forgotten I can use the search button just like you can, dang what's with the all the baboons these days!

 

[Desk Jockey]

LOL
I don't know, dinosaurs might be a stretch.

Might.

 

[BIG WOOD]

Let me repeat...spinners are overrated

 

[BIG WOOD]

Spinners belong hooked up to a pressure washer cleaning a sidewalk, not ceramic tile

 

[D Luke]

All I know is I cleaned a boat load of tile today with the old school Gecko wand. Thing is straight garbage.

 

[hogjowl]

I've got a tile wand.
It's great on vinyl and wood.
I've got two spinners.
They're better on tile.
I don't have a TM in a trailer so I know what I'm talking about.

 

[Desk Jockey]

LOL

 

[BIG WOOD]

Lol.

Using a tile wand on wood tells me you're a bigger IDIOT than I am

Wood only gets a 175 with a pad or bonnet or both

How many times have you gifted your customer beautiful crowned edges on their hardwood?

Don't waste your money on a spinner.

 

[Bob Pruitt]

I'm just patiently waiting for Tom to hurry his ass up to get the tile swivel wand ready

Now you like swivel wands?

 

[BIG WOOD]

Now you like swivel wands?

It's a pain in the ass cleaning next to toilets in a home.

 

[Lamesalegend]

My vote also goes to the Turbo Hybrid. It's really good. Although a great hard surface wand that gets under toe kicks and most importantly cleans all the way out to the edge would get bought as soon as I see it.
Spinners are great for open areas but all of them leave about an inch uncleaned at the edges/corners.

 

[hogjowl]

I know you've only just left TMelF, but try to do your best to catch up to modern cleaning techniques.

Idiot

Turbo hybrid is better than Sx. IMO The tool is just built better. Performance might be close to the same. But the sx12 just feels like 2 pressure washing guns screwed on to a 1.5 wand. The SX12 will dry a bit better. But it is barely noticeable. The 15 inch version of both aren't that great. They are just not very maneuverable.
The turbo hybrids are "throw in back of the truck" tough.
Honestly it is just silly to not have one on the truck. Hard surface wands are great. But magic happens under a spinner.
Personally I believe that any real professional should have at least 4 turbo hybrids on the truck at all times. I'm looking at you Saiger . No 17 inch turbo hybrid= hack.

 

[GeneMiller]

I have both and prefer the sx-12. It's still all original parts and I've had it since they first came out. The hybrids ring is already coming apart and the valve leaks. I hate the location of solution line, could catch a wall and my hand gets burned once in a while. I see on Chavez turbo it's missing the rings that hold the pins, which get in the way when going under cabinets. Bad design, they have to be cut off. Didn't notice any difference in the dryness of the tile.

How about a free cobra with purchase of the TH40 Turbo Hybrid, plus free shipping for only $826? I may be a bit biased here, but I think Turboforce is better... :-)

No they're not.


You're just too new to know.

 

[BIG WOOD]

No they're not.


You're just too new to know.

Then let's see a spinner and a tile wand (a good tile wand) side by side at the MF.
