Wondering who has this machine currently or has owned one previously and what your experience is/was? Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Buddy has one and has had a few issues. I would get a Judson and not look back.

I'm supposed to have mine installed this week too! Just trying to make sure I don't need to make a last minute adjustment in my plans.
The CDS is dependable but I'm a suction guy. I like really feeling the suction and heat when I'm cleaning and the CDS from what I was told is lacking in the suction part.

I have one and its a monster. I would try not to pay retail for one. We found a great deal on the whole hook up, and we love it. You have to watch that heat though,

Will the proprietary cleaning system you created going to fit into a standard van? You dog on other companies that don't use big trucks, are you gonna change your puroclean website around now?

I also like in the website the bit about the water being heated to 250. I have a diesal heater and have cleaned at those temps. We had brass break and hoses bust a couple times. I would never dream of adopting 250 as our standard cleaning temp. In addition to being overkill it is also a bit risky. I think at 250 it doesnt clean as well as maybe 200 - 220 because you lose much of the flushing action due to vaporization.

Thats a huge difference bro!
I have problems! I've heard of problems!
Seriously Ben I'm sure they will stand behind the product.
The best thing to do would be ask repair guys what they think maybe someone like John here on this site at superior if he sells them he could tell you the issue's if any.
I'd be reluctant to listen to someone who only sells another brand because thats what they're going to try and sell You.
But a retailer who sells most Major brands and services both will usually steer You in the right direction.
I believe the titan is the biggest slide in on the market apart from a AT.

Well - I am here to report back. After 3 months of use- I want to rip my hair out. It has been in and out of the service department and they are now telling me it needs a new blower. It is DUMPING water into the waste tank and only allowing us to get 30-45 minutes of cleaning before shutting down.
May be switching to the Prochem team....

Sorry to hear of your problems Ben.
Sometimes the trade off for the biggest and baddest isn't worth the piece of mind of a tried and true machine that you can depend on day and day out. Hopefully you voicing it will keep others from having to go through the same scenario.
As new as that unit is hopefully they get it corrected for you.

I have a couple of local competitors that have said they love theirs but none of them do much WDR work so I'm still wondering how it does for WDR, not that I'm looking for a unit yet.

damn.
That sucks Ben.
Our local college just bought one. They wanted the SS870 when it was suppose to come with a 59 but changed their minds and got the bigger blower Titan.
What went wrong in the blower itself?
Were you using it to dual on a daily basis?
