I already adjusted the Jets closer to the glide, what else don’t you like about the manifold? The outside jets do seem a little close to the outside.

Lets hop they've improved it since I had to modify mine.



I can't recall all that was wrong

One of our BENTley wand manifolds had to be cut and re-welded to get the jets in the same plane and equally spaced. The other had similar.

In other words, you bought the wrong wand. Idiot !
Nah, almost ten years ago got them cheap from disgruntled original owners. The vacuum side ergonomics and efficiency was first rate at the time. We knew what we were getting as far as the spaghetti manifolds. Perhaps their welding fabricator didn't use jigs?

Both semi retired now.

ou know I’m talking about a Mach 12, not a Bentley?


no one cares.
The Devistrada is the board de jour phenom wand now.
every other wand is a POS compared to it

Butt stay tuned, there will be a "new improved" de jour Excaliber for the knights of the round rug

while in consultation with Merlin, he said,

"In three, watch and see "

Didn't you already have a Conway? that you didn't like?

So you but the knock off version thinking it will be better?
No, it was a beautiful wand, I just prefer a 2 inch tube. I can’t get 2 inch Devastator, so I got a dang. The version that uncle Joe is building for people is getting rave reviews and nobody is reporting any issues. I know a couple guys that had older devastators and are saying uncle Joe’s wand is top notch.

2 tube, 12" head?


Tom makes that.




btw, "Uncle Joe" WILL screw you someday.




keep in mind, MOST carpet cleaners dont have a clue about equipment, especially wands.

The dang is 14” 2”.

When I bought my 12” Devastator, the 2” tube wasn’t a thing.

Nobody is babying that swivel, apparently Joe’s version 4 ironed out the rough spots.

I probably would’ve bought 2 inch tube Devastator if they were available.
