So just for fun. Why doesn't prochem have pmf change the quad tube to titanium? Such a good little wand but too heavy for such a small head. Anyway food for thought. Just got a new prochem titanium six jet with slot glide. Love it. So light but I still use my old quad for tight spots.

IMHO the 12" quad is possibly the best wand for portables.
The "heaviness" allows it to maintain better contact with the carpet and it sure is made to last.

this week at my supplier I fondled a West Pak 2" tube 12" wide 4-jet in titanium soft touch valve. Excellent fit and finish and oh so light.

Prochems break also. Just stick with a Dev wand, all will be okay.

You must be incredibly rough on stuff. lol

My guys are rough too but never broke one. We've been using PC wands for decades. Only problems we ever had were wear items. Valve repair or solution line is about it. We do use Greenglides but we vacuum prior to cleaning.

Sorry if I wasn't clear. That wasn't my wand. That was from a FB post where a guy was complaining that the quality of Prochem has tanked since merging with Legend Brands. I personally disagree. Sometimes shit just happens.

All of the wands I have tested have flaws.

I still have the Devastator Swivel !


So you're ok with an under sized vac tube being used and the gap filled with heat shrink rubber?
And your ok with rivet heads in the vacuum tube?
And too many undersized bearing crammed in the races?
And the inner swivle collar being welded to the head?
And the assist grip not staying put on the undersized tube?
And the garbage powder coating?
And garbage anodizing?
And many if not most, vac tubes are recycled from failed warranty wands?

Powder coating??? No no no. That's spray paint coating.
