I have a US Products Evolution 2-jet wand (1 1/2 inch), which I use with my portable (Nautilus). Even with doing extra dry strokes, we seem to have longer than desired dry times, and have had a few understandable customer complaints, which is completely unacceptable. We bear down on it to get the best vacuum seal around the lip of the wand, so the dry strokes aren't just gliding across the carpet. The extractor is set up in series (versus parallel), so I assume it is getting maximum vacuum from the machine. Even so, with several dry strokes, the dry times are unacceptable. So... we now use fans as well.
Main question in this monologue is: Thinking that the wand may be part of the issue, what do you recommend as the best wand for a portable? Has anyone else had this issued? If so, was the Evolution part of the problem? Which wand would be better, to give noticeably better results, i.e., better water extraction?
