We have 5 or 6 of them. I bought the last 3 off a guy for 600...for all 3. One was a 16". Don't use it much. Wears you out.

I bought one from TeflonKen when he had an EBay store. I PayPaled him $1000 for it and didn't receive it for almost 2 months, which is an eternity in EBay time. Ken got run off EBay in short time when his favorable rating fell below 40% LOL.
Great wand set up with a holed GG. Only thing faster on large areas would be a Zipper. Hopefully my wife can sell it when I'm dead, it will still be worth a lot.

True with everything. It flexes a bit, but seems better than most. The "bulletproof" all metal ones are usually clunky to me.

And Larry , I got to talk to your wife when I ordered some supplies today. She was very nice and knew her stuff.

I've never owned a PC Titanium.

Bought my Westpac @ 2 years ago when funds were lower but I was wanting to step up my game.

Knowing that I swing a Jim Martin Approved wand every day helps me to deal with the absence of a PC Titanium a little better!

Here is a photo of the WORST $1500 wand ever made in the history of carpet cleaning . . .
Cast Titanium head pop-riveted to a stainless tube . . .
After the 4th rework to reattach the head . . .
Still has nice "Attic" though Mike . . .

Prochem should have recalled all of these faulty designs . . .
They did recall them Larry

My customer said he contacted ProChem about the "pop rivet" failure three MONTHS after he bought it . . .

and they refused to replace it.

Do you think he would still be using it,

if they offered to replace it ??

Larry tell him I will take it off of his hands so both you and your customer can move on from this obviously emotional bad experience to a better and healthier place.

I own a Ti knock off. But, with my "secret" mods it kicks ass!!! No better wand out there anywhere else!! It's a body saver that's for sure with the mods

Both 6 jet with 1 inch extenders 12 flow.

Sam;

You are correct. The older Ti wands were of thicker material.

Lockhart had a new Ti and an older model .

The older one weighed more.

He should have contacted a Distributor that knows his ass from a hole in the ground. Prochem doesn't do anything direct that's why they have distributors.
