I've got the Sapphire tool. Before that I had the original Drymaster. I prefer the Sapphire by a wide margin.

The continuous flow button on mine has a hard time sliding under the valve handle. I use a screwdriver to mash it in.

The upholstery prespray from Sapphire works great too!

I am with MeAt-the PMF is a great tool at a reasonable price, hands down. !gotcha! As previously mentioned-its going to depend on what type of cleaning you will be doing the most........Fine fabric-high end furniture, stay on the safer side and invest in the higher end Saph's. Your customers will be impressed-they are nice! lol: But for those everyday "raunchy recliners", "sticky sofas" and rows of "crusty casino chairs" the PMF is super. We went with the 3.5 Easy-Grip w/Hide-a-Hose and the handy viewing window and we are very pleased!!!! Thanks Again to John at Superior!!!!!!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Sapphire is the ONLY tool as far as I'm concerned. I bought the Hydramaster Dri tool couple years ago and it was OK. BUT, it takes too long to remove all the screws and clean the lint out after each job. It begins to leak and can't be remedied. Also, after a period of time, the seam in the middle of the tool begins to catch and snag some fabrics. BIG PROBLEM!!!!! I sold it for $200 and bought a Sapphire and don't have to worry about lint/hair collecting in the chamber. It doen't have a seam to snag fabrics and it is veryyyyyyyyyyyy smooth to operate and dries great. Yes, it does have a trigger but it also has a lock to keep the water flow continuous if you choose. No, I am not a big Sapphire fan but this product is a "10".

Somebody on here was using the Saph. uphol. tool and when they took it apart to clean it had lots of hair and junk stuck in the head. There are pics if you search for it.

So I would say that it does have to be taken apart once in a while to work at it's full potential.
