I like it as well but i ended up having to replace the crappy hose, it constantly collapsed. I cant believe SS released it with that hose. I do wish it had a view finder though.

if all the problem is..only a ridiculous hose....thats one of the easiest fixes....

I was promised a replacement and waited and waited and waited...So I just used used a hose from a different tool. I love them, use them everyday but wasn't happy with the broken promises from Poulos (who I really like) and Bruders (whom I don't know).....I had a problem with a shelving unit from MYTEE and fixed myself and they wanted to pay for the parts I bought

I currently have a dri master and I am going to add a SS tool next. I have heard so many good things about these now.

Don't feel bad Jim the same thing happened to me. Now I'm stuck with the dri master, which isn't bad. Buts it's not a bid deal just give the employee all the furniture jobs :winky:

That tool easily cut my upholstery cleaning times in half compared to my open jet tool.

I'll be buying one in a 2-3 weeks. Looking forward to cleaning with it again, when I tested it I was impressed. I hope the internal parts have a better longevity than the dri-master tool.

Not a bad tool for flat work or areas with a large radius.
Never cares for it with the double vac slot for tight corners and tight detail work.
The spray bar could use some work IMO. Too far back from the front edge to get into the nooks and crannies.
Also the gap between the spray bar holes is too far apart. On some fabrics by time you give it enough juice for the spray to get full coverage you end up having to dry pass everything.

I'm still using the original white drMaster. I should have replaced it a few years ago, but it still gets the job done. I haven't seen the SS tool, I will have to try it before buying a new upholstery tool.

I used my prochem tool for years never used a dri master uph tool got a floor machine I don't use. But I got mine from Bristor for 4 bills and one from Jondon for the same. We use both a lot on jobs. Dry times are great cleaning is great and I have never had a problem with edges or corners.


You have to change your angle of attack maybe shorten the vac port with your hand it all works out.

My SS tool is practically new (been used to clean 4 sofas.)
Will sell for $349.00 + shipping. Or pick it up either in San Francisco or Grass Valley areas.

What no free shipping? :p

If you have trouble selling it local (doubtful) I'll take it.
