I need a stair tool!!

Are the no name wand people going to be there? Looking for a 2" S bend stair tool..
A 2inch s-bend stair tool seems like it's going to be pretty heavy. I don't think it is going to make too much difference in dry times from a 1-1/2 inch. My favorite is a medium long handle with 2 jets and splash guards. I find I can stand mostly upright when cleaning, except for the bottom stair. I do a lot of stairs sometime when I do apartment common areas. Sometimes 3 stairwells of 30-40 stairs each.

This is not a contest. Simply a platform to try out tools and techniques on.


Dispite what other forum owners are crying about...
I read somewhere else that it was a contest. I thought that was the stupidest thing if they were right. I'd love to test other tools like that. But I would hate to leave with a sore back and a 5th place piece of paper

others forum's read here. Oh my!

Spies that can't get it straight. Maybe you could text the what's going everyday so they could have valuable content to post. Just don't give them anything Willy says. :lol:

That's what you're saying now, but I heard you were really scared of being beat in a stair off.

I've been wanting one for a while now... The wand is killing my shoulder/elbows!

A 1.5 would be fine if I didn't have to switch cuffs every time I use it.

You set it up just an upholstery tool. Have the appropriate hose with the right cuff attachment already attached to the stair tool. Doesn't matter if you use 2in all the way, just have the whip on the tool. You wouldn't run 2 inch to your upholstery tool, would you?

I have been working on a manifold that attaches (3) tools. I'd bring it to Atlanta but my lawyer said it's too early to show without a patent.

What it does is you attach up to three tools at a time. Each port has a dump valve gate to block off vacuum as you switch between tools. Solution manifold out connects all tools for easy operation.

You can connect a wand, stairs too, upholstery tool and quickly and easily switch between tools. It will.be amazing once ready, a real time saver.

Retail should be around $3,000.00 but you should be able to make that back in time savings. However for Mikeysboard members I plan on having an introductory price. $3,200.00 this is available for a limited time.

I should be packing but I don't feel.like it. Is there a laundry near the hotel? I could just pack dirty clothes and wash them there. : )

A Prochem long handle stair tool weighs 5.2 pounds.. My 2" ti stair tool with a glide and extenders is 8.4.. I'll take 3 pounds for double coverage..

I would also like to try that stair tool Saiger uses, I like the swivel..

Prochem stair tools are horrible, either of them!! Keeping your back straight is the most important thing.

I agree with you about the Prochem tool. I have one and never use it. I use what I believe is a Pmf long handled stair tool with 2 jets and splash guards. I haven't weighed it but it is pretty light. I have a custom made s bend somewhere but I find it heavy and the s bend is unnecessary. I wouldn't mind a Saiger swivel but I would like splash guards.
