I've been cleaning for about 38 years, give or take a year. I've seen many new and interesting tools come out over the years. Some were bombs (remember the RX 20 that was supposed to blow hot blower air back over the carpet to speed dry it?) Some were great tools....(that I've used). The Green glides really helped with higher lift and CFM machines. The rotaries. The Ti wand.

But my life has become so much more easier with just a few of the latest tools that I have purchased.

1) Thermalwave Vortec with 120 gallon water pond
2) 19" Cimex.
3) Vario orbital, 19"
4) The Mytee Dry Upholstery tool.
5) Using the 2.5" vac hose.

The Zipper will be next.

I'm sure there are other tools out there that have made life easier for other cleaners, but these are the ones that have made life easier for me personally.

I forgot that Mike. I found a great employee in one of my Son's friends. Always available for my last minute calls. I do get bored standing around watching, though. Lil' Bob, as he's known, is a little slow and deliberate, but does a great job.

I WISH that were true for Me---- When I wanted to Get out of the Normal Rut of Average CC-- the 1st person I fired was my Father-- 2nd was My Mother because My dad still had control over her. I fired or let Quit My son's because of attendance problems--- They said-- But Dad- This isn't a REAL job...

Once I was rolling in the money I took my parents and Sister to Paris and Rome for Vacation--- My Mom and Dad Thanked me for the trip--- I told them I was only able to take this trip because I replaced them...They realized I was right.

YES we have great tools available now that weren't' available decades ago--- But The Government keeps adding frustrations.
