    just got my new pmf 15inch 6jet wand in today and love it. It is for better than the wand I have been using, and was about $600 less than the pro-chem ti. I got the one with what they call the skies on it. It fairly easy to pull and push, and leaves the carpet just slightly damp. The 15inch head will be welcome addition to the many rental and hundreds of apartments I do. It looks very well made and still can't believe the price. Maybe the larger head will allow me see the family a little more. I have been working 12 hours days, 6 days a week, and it is not really the busy season yet! Love this job, love this forum. GOD-FAMILY-HOME-WORK, and everything else falls into place.

    It is quite the wand Michael. I have heard of nothing but positive comments from my customers on it. Glad you like yours.:)

    It is 3 months away. But now that the Mach-15 has become our #1 selling wand it is a wait that is not that hard to take.:)

    Most of the buyers so far are not from this board. Most are coming from other carpet cleaners that are doing Google searches with the key words "Titanium carpet wands". Got to love those Google searches.

    That statement is misleading Ken. Google has TMF as the top forum search. So indirectly and directly your sales do result from TMF.

    I don't mean for that statement to be mis-leading in any way Rob. What I mean is that a Google search with those Key words in it gives us first page placement. We are one of the top 5 listings it shows.

    Here are those results:

    I used the mach 15 for the first time on a residential job and discovered the size is better suited for open areas with no furniture. I can say that the amount of air flow is amazing. I have a Vortex , and with the mach 15 I can run the truck at 1300rpms and get all the suction I can handle. With that being said, what differents options do you have for 2inch wands that work good around furniture.

    For most furnished residential cleaning most of my customers tell me they like either the 14" CMP or 14" Westpak wands. Both of these wands can be purchased under $500 with glides and are a good choice for this type of use.:)

    No problem Jose. I keep many of the wands I sell close to my cost so that most cleaners can afford to buy them. But sometimes when business is slow even that is not enough at times to get some into a new wand. I put up a couple more wands in classified tonight to help people on this board out, including free shipping:)

    Anyone recently purchase this wand? Just seeing if there is any other feed back. Is it better than the 2" Greenhorn? Are you using the original spray bar, or did you change it? What about dry time?
    Thanks Kevin

    I have been milking the same wand for a very long time. Have had it welded a few times replaced the valves many times etc. Maybe it is time to get something better. Where can i get one of your mach wands? If i dont like it can it be sent back?

    you can purchase it at URL REMOVED
    buyer beware though Ken has been suspended due to late deliveries. i purchased one last week and will post delivery results when i receive it. Ken has always been very prompted to answer my emails so i am confident (hopeful) i will receive it in a timely manner. btw he was selling them on here for less than his website price.
