I’m a wand nerd... and OCD, so I just completed another wand test.

Divided my living room in half, no pre-spray, extracted half with my SS12 (6 flow, 500 psi, stock glide).

The other half got my Mach 12 2” (6 flow, 500 psi, stock glide).

Completed both sides around 4:30 pm est.

As of 7:30 pm est, the SS12 side is still a bit damp (enough to wet a paper towel).

The Mach 12 2” side is virtually dry to the touch.

No fans and dry passes as similar as can be.

I wanted the SS12 to win.

The difference in “feel” was significant.

F you guys.

thank you for doing the comparison. I have been looking at getting a new wand and these would be the two I would be looking at.

I too was thinking the SS would win. But then again I never used a 2 inch wand so Im wandering how that would feel after 5 hours of working.

I have a 2 inch wand made for Cleanco by pmf. Similar head and glides to the mach 12. With a 47 blower it's very difficult to move on certain carpets.

The SS12 is pure pleasure to clean with... almost like it takes no effort.

But... the M12 with 2” tube absolutely performed better, far as extraction.

So much so that I ordered a Michael glide for it last night.

Mike... what happened to the Wednesday delivery date for my EVO13 glide? It’s Friday evening here in God’s country and I still don’t have it.

By the way, used both wands and the JoeDang today.

Even at 8 flow (same psi) the JoeDang left the carpet much drier than even the Mach 12 2”.

But... I hated used it.
