    Awesome vid. I can see how it would be easy to get this setup and market the 360. Also like the clear sight tube on the 360. Someday.........

    Yeah I agree. Watch for rotovac to put some other portables out of business. You would really have to be out of your mind to spend 3-4k on any thing else IMO.

    I've seen that video when I was checking out Rotovac PowerWand, which I have. The only thing I'd like is a 500 psi pump instead of 250. Nice machine though!

    Big believer in the rotovac 360! I have all the different cleaning heads and the vacuum ring.
    The one I like the most is the stair cleaning head.
    It does wonders on the traffic lanes of each step.

    I don't find the weight being a problem for me.
    I am a fairly muscular and workout 4 days a week to stay in shape and keep up with my wife that happens to be a Deputy Sheriff. lol...
    The only complaint is when I get to the bottom 3 steps I find myself having to adjust the handles to accommodate my 6'3 frame.

    Yeah. Well we'll see!! It may be a nice machine; but I'd run my recoil any day against it with only 2 motors.

    Do you know how much the Stair Pro sells for? The rotovac site doesn't seem to have pricing.

    Sorry Ricky,
    I am not going to agree with you on this one. You will lose at least 10% of your cfm for every 50 feet of hose with the CA in the van and you running 125 feet I think the dual 3 stage vacs at 25 feet with the cfx and small efficient waste tank you are not going to come close with only two vacs. Maybe you can make it up with your super Secret Hot sauce. Did you bring that stuff back from the jungles with you? Developed to eliminate Jungle rot?

    How many cleaners do you know that would take on a fairly nasty apartment without agitation while using a porty and a wand?

    Ricky are you still using the Edic wand for agitation?

    I don't think I said from the van; I still do occassionally take Recoil inside; and I am positive my Recoil at 50 foot of 2 inch hose can out lift and cfm run the cfx with only 2 3 stage vacs.

    I have done nasty apartments with and without agitation; when I am in a hurry and the soiling type is right; I use Secret Sauce for just extraction with EDIC Powermate(which I consider to be a basic clean). Then we do a grooming swipe with a glided wand to make it look purdy! Now if I need to agitate the sauce then we breakout the Koblenz "Old Man" scrubbers and scrub as needed then extract with EDIC Powermate; and then do the glided wand grooming swipe. Even using electric heat I get 1 to 2 hour dry times. Note this is from Fully boosted Recoil system.

    Nice video. I'd like to have a 360 but every time I think about getting one something else seems to tug harder at the wallet. Maybe this year I'll pick up a deal on an older 360 from somebody trading up to the new 360i. How much better is the 360i anyway? I'd like to hear from someone who has used both and isn't selling them.

    The CFX looks like a handy tool but but since I already have a Recoil, I'd either hook up the Recoil with auto fill and pump or the TM. I am curious about whether cfm or lift is more important when using the 360 or an rx20. Anybody know?

    Rotovac offers a up to $1000.00 trade in program.

    I like air flow but you really need power to lift. Good air flow and power to pull air though dense carpet backing.

    I have no proper measuring equipment but It seems to me that the pick up heads draw more air flow. My test feel with cupped hand.

    The heads are not compatible on the older to newer models, You need a spacer to make them compatible.

    I have upgraded so I not sure I qualify for feed back.

    I like the CFX because of the big waste tank and auto fill, but it does lack a couple of things that I am seeking:

    -Heat

    -Pump Out

    My question is this:

    Is 250 psi enough with a Rotovac? Most people here say you need 400+ psi to get anything done.

    Are you limited at 25' w/ the 360i and CFX?

    Re: ROTOVAC CFX 360 VIDEO

    Not sure but I think the CFX has a standard pump out. I dont think it has any kind of pump thus only using the available water pressure. That is my concern with the CFX? Heat would be pretty easy IMO......hot tap water and an electric heater.
