Political as to how much they will pay to be

 

[Mikey P]

oops, there's the Horse

Karcher paid to have their private labeled Orbots certified.

One of my (un)fondest memories was my time served on the IICRC board during that entire "CRI Seal Of Approval" nightmare.

If you had the (dis)pleasure of dealing with the IICRC politics of those days (coincidentally the same time you started this show here), you would have jumped ship the first meeting.

The powers that be then had their heads so far up the carpet industry's backsides they could have reached their throats.

I'm glad you have good vacuums, but how the CRI judged what is "good and bad" leaves a lot to be desired.

Isn't the rug Doctor gold certified?

 

[Desk Jockey]

Unfair testing for sure. Rug Doctor got like 11 passes vs a TM that got one..two?

 

[Jimmy L]

And what standards did "Padders" have?

I don't think they wanted any orbital, 175 or OP machine on carpets.

Prochem v12 - silver
sebo x series - bronze


They're the same vacuum.

 

[Old Coastie]

Avalir is gold and no sign of Sentria?

If you like edging on your knees

If you like edging on your knees

You're so goofy with your edging with your vacuum cleaner. Oh, I forgot you use the glide for old people

You don't use a glide? Expect a phone call from Mikey.

I’m not surprised that you don’t edge

He knows what I'm talking about. Yes, I do use a glide, stoop!

Marty can't comprehend using the wand and sometimes pulling off the vac hose to edge. He must be only doing one job a day and has plenty of time to Ron Werner the room

If I was going to hire anybody in this room to clean my carpets, it would be Marty.

Cant argue with that...
Except one caveat?
I would find out the total BEFORE the work, leave a cheque, the so I wouldn’t have to suffer his incorrigible personality.....

That would probably be Marty's preference too.

 

[hogjowl]

Amen

The ONLY thing that makes the workhorse an above average vacuum cleaner is the fact that you can see the dirt falling ----into the cup ----- as you run it so your instinctual nature is to keep going over the same area over and over and over and over---- fulfilling your weird desires to be the ultimate premium carpet cleaner

Kinda like you obsessing over heat and flow a few years back

You need to work on balance.

 

[Sierra Clean Care]

You need to work on balance.

I know...
Exactly why I’m changing my tactics this year.
New tools, and equipment.
New way of looking at business, debt, and my family’s future....
