I have not tried a RX or any other rotary machine so I can't compare. The price was right compared to other machines. I like the handle adjustment and ease of use for placing it in and out of the van and taking it in and out of the house. The machine is light and after trying it out on one empty room I was comfortable with it. After cleaning two homes I felt like a pro.
I have not tried it on a thick Saxony carpet but I did work it on some thick carpet yesterday and it did just fine. I have a great truck mount and a wand with
glides and have always gotten compliments and referrals on my cleaning(s) but this 360 makes it easier on my body and cleans the carpet better. The proof is not only from the carpet looking better but from the junk in the filter.
For me it is another great tool to add to the toolbox and make my life easier and my customers happier.
