I hope it like a Zipper wand with counter rotating spinners on the inside. ( Like a tile spinner ) That thing would clean like crazy. If thats not it someone needs to build it.

Just try a Turbo Hybrid on a nasty carpet to know that's true.

I told Eric at MF that the jets could be replaced with the "turbo nozzles" like used on pressure washer wands.

Please have them fix all of their typos!!!! If they can't be bothered to proofread their advertising before they release it, it makes one wonder how well they are checking the tool!

Take care,

Lisa,

I think the typos were intentional to give it a bit of informality and an indicator of the tongue-in-cheek nature of the advert campaign.

Yeah, I know. The whole think exhibits little sub-themes designed to illicit a bit of itchy irritation in everyone, in the hopes that it will be more memorable or interesting.

Heck, it's got both of us talking about it.

I don't buy it. Typo's convey ignorance or carelessness, not informality. Fix them.

Take care,

So when Bawb shortens words words in his posts (e.g. leaving the "e" off the work "like"), and is misspelling them, it is not for effect, but out of ignorance and carelessness?
I think it is for effect.

Bawb likely didn't shorten and misspell words in his advertising materials.

Big difference between intentionally misspelling words to simulate a certain way of speech and misspelling words because you don't know any better or are too lazy to proofread.

It took me plenty of time to think up all those typos and put them in. Now you want me to take them out?

I have peeked at several member's websites here, and have seen several instances of misspelled and/or incorrect use of certain words. Now, you won't lose any customers by using great spelling/grammar, but I guarantee you will lose a few if you don't. I, for one, really appreciate when such things are pointed out to me. It's just good business.
