Capitoni who was th bring the carpet and run the 175/wand bailed at the last second.

As did Rotovac.

Only meAt had the common courtesy to let me know he was not coming.

Considering how many unit have sold through this board, I was very disappointed in the lack of respect.

So....is this the end of the "Rotovac hype" run here? I can't believe they didn't show up.. After all the hype and all those 360i units sold thru the info shared here.

I guess now I'm gona think about buying one, even though I was really close to pull the trigger.

I'll just wait to see how the HOSS will turn out.

I'd rather buy one of Brudder's over priced gizmos than RV's

I'm actually rather surprised at the the price on them to be honest
I figured selling $129 dollar wands for $900 and $39 dollar upl tools for $400 being he norm for them, the HOSS would be stupid priced too...like $5 to $7000 :lol:

Hey Zee, I too was thinking about getting the 360i. But I pulled the trigger on a 15" Zipper that was delivered today. Call me if you want to try it.

I thought it would cost more too Larry. I liked the fit and finish better, and it seemed much less bulky than the RX, and the handlebars a bit more compact then the RV.

It was noisy, but the prototype's cut gears are upgraded to helical gears on the production models. I like the fact that they CARE what we think and don't make cheesy shortcuts.

Thanks,
Lee

I didn't mean for you to come over and look @ it. If you
want to borrow it for your next commercial cleaning job, you are
welcome to it.

No surprise to me...I've seen Rotovac do some other shady things in the past.

I don't know why everyone's so high on this 360i....I would have like to have seen the results though

Were high on it for one good reason. It easily allows us to out clean our competitors who are to cheap to buy one. Plain and simple, nothing else will outclean it yet.

Ok, an rx20. Not even remotely close. I had one. A cimex and a high flow. I have those as well, and no they won't outclean it.

I'm sure it must be the water now...or you just don't know sheet.... :lol:

I've "been" around Drapes
21 years full time
Honest to God i don't think I'm very smart and I'm not the best CCer in the world..and I'm DAMN SURE a piss poor biz man.... :oops:

But fortunately I was blessed with some common sense, have good observation skills and I'm able to figure things out for myself.

What I've determined is, most CC'ers just don't know squat.... :shock:

So, u have cleaned at least 10 nasty, crack whore houses with the 360I? Because if u haven't, than u are just pretending to know. I have cleaned really nasty places with your method.

done any side by side evaluations , Drapes??
don't lie

That's the problem with a lot of guys.(I don't if you're one of them)
They'll swear to something, but have never done any side by side evaluations to confirm what they "think" they "know"
i don't know that you're one of them...only suspect it


as far as ratholes , I've prob'ly cleaned more rat holes in my first 3 years than you'll likely see in your entire career, given your claimed pricing
and no, never used a 360i, but have used just about every other rotojet extractor ..and I didn't just fall off the turnip truck
