I started as a window cleaner working weekends. One of my customers asked if id clean a carpet so i rented a rinse n vac. I ended up renting it so much the store sold it to me for 325.00 about 2 months later i stepped up to my first of 2 steamgeni portables. When i was renting the rinse n vac you have to understand, i was still on active duty with the Coast guard. In boot camp we regularly polished waxed linoleum floors to a brilliant shine with only a wool blanket and a persons weight, cleaned gymnasium floor with a toothbrush. Swept the exercise yard with a hair brushn etc etc. Cleaning carpets with a rinse n vac was a breeze it had a power cord! If i could can The energy of my youth and sell it now, i would be a very very wealthy man!

I'd spend at least $600 and get a portable that is big enough where you rely on its large 10"+ casters to get it up stairs, step by step. 2 vac motors and a 500psi pump. Then you can do almost anything with it. Unless you are just planning on doing upholstery cleaning...

It looks like it has 2 vacuums im still not sure of the PSI rating, I'm not in the position to spend 600 nor am I going to make a career plan with it, just my home some upholstery yes, and maybe a few rooms at some randoms once in a while...I just figured the wands are worth it for 200...I think...


Still nothing...on topic?

It has a legible model number of
X1000 or X100D

Are you sure it has 2 vacuum motors? It is a really small machine (small reservoirs at least), but for use in your own home I imagine it will be fine as long as it runs well, and has more than a 100 psi pump. 100 psi would be fine for upholstery and even spot cleaning, but lacking for general carpet cleaning. 250psi with 2 vacuum motors would be sufficient though. Beyond that knowing what brand it is won't help much. If you can't find it easily then ordering specific replacement parts is out, you'll have to understand the size and functionality of a given part well enough to order a suitable replacement of a different make when needed.

For $200 your can't go wrong if it works. Looks like 2-2 stage vac motors and probably 100 psi pump. Good for upholstery and light carpet cleaning.

My pops started in the business with a slightly bigger version of that type of extractor.. 2 2stages in “T” into 1 stack.. And a 100 or 200psi pump.. We dedicated it to carpet dyeing..

We still have it on the mezzanine.. I’ll take a pic of it when I get back to the shop..

Gawd I hated carpet dyeing when I was young.. I was tasked with cleaning up the baseboards and hard surfaces and cleaning the equipment after completion.. I’d rather paint houses..


Rant over..

Thx Bryce, that's great input and definitely note worthy, in one of the pictures it shows 3 switches, above the switch says VAC 1|VAC 2|PUMP
Being a non professional I would think they wouldn't label it for extra stuff and not have the accessories to go along...
I talked with the owner and he said it was his Dad's from there mom and pop shop that he now acquired, and is non- heated...
