Hello,
I am looking at starting up my own cleaning business and like any business, cash is tight. I'm looking for a good portable unit, and hopefully from there I can grow the business into a TM. Here are a few things I'd like to consider:
i.) I want the portable unit to be an investment, so when (hopefully!) I get into the TM, I can still use the portable for high rise units. In other words, I'd like to get something that'll grow with the business.
ii.) I will be doing carpet, tile, and upholstery, so a machine that can do both carpets and hard surfaces (tile) would be ideal.
iii.) Reliability/Serviceable - Obviously, I'd be looking at a name brand that is reliable and won't be breaking down every day so long as it's properly maintained. In the event that it is, I would like for the unit to be serviceable in South Florida, where I live.
These are factors I'm considering but with the wealth of knowledge on the forums, I would welcome any other points that should be considered. With that said, what would be some good portable options to provide the great heat, suction power, and reliability for what I'm looking for?
Thank you all!
