on trashed Berber. I've never used my new CRB on Berber yet. Will that do better than a 175 with a red pad or brush?

I'll try to send the pics that my customers sent me on here

If memory serves me right Matt does not have one. And a 175 will be just fine. It also work really well with a brush head.
No need to buy a new tool, unless you'd like to have it. RE is just another tool you are not likely to use often, which at times will save time.

I am new to the board, but not to cleaning. I use a 17" Brushpro, and it does not work very well on tight, cheap Berber. I recently purchased a 175. I am looking for brushes/pads for it. IMO, a good cleaner has the right tool for the right job. I guess this applies to a few things in life.

get a drive block and you can use different pads on it and get a shampoo brush. Either will work well. My brush pro works just as well on trashed berber.

Go get um, Matt!:rockon:
Yeah, it was a 4hr job on this vandalized, water damage stained carpet. I did the best I could with firestorm and peroxide pre sprayed. They were very happy with the outcome of it.

I'm at lowes right now getting prepared to demolish one of my bathrooms next week

Hey Jeff

Welcome and glad to see you here and posting! :)

@Mikey P will have some good recommendations for what shampoo brush to use and add to your 175.

Looking forward to more posts from you as well.

Thanks again for being here :)

I wanted to demolish mine, but my wife reminded me of how I start projects and hardly ever finish them at home. So...I've had to hire a handy man to demolish and redo mine
