1. RX20 - No, it's not perfect and yes, it is a dated design for residential carpet but it remains the most reliable of all rotary extractors (T Rex is close, the rest blow) and remains the best on CGD (T Rex is about equal).
2. ProChem Upholstery tool - Throw on a glide and it is one of the very best upholstery tools and is by far, the best built and most reliable.
3. PMF Upholstery Tool - I took this one out over the weekend and it was a wake up call, after not using it for years. No, it is not as well built as the Prochem but it can reach areas, crevices and things that other upholstery tools cannot. One of the best in terms of effectiveness. I loved it! This tool is also much less expensive than the modern tools and works better in several ways.
4. Turbo Hybrid Tile Spinner - Still the best. There have been many competitors but none are built with the same quality; not even close.
5. Hydramaster Hydrahoe Wand - One jet design is good for beginning pros. Just hook it up and clean carpet with no streaking, finicky jet placement and other quirks. It is also very well built, with exceptional reliability. The Hydrahoe has a top quality valve as well.
6. Kirby vacuums - Great performance and reliability.
7. Certified Pile Brush Vac - Those who say it doesn't vacuum well, don't know how to use it, period. This thing says "old school beast" like nothing else and makes other vacuums look and feel like weaklings. The performance is unrivaled in my opinion.
8. Cimex - What a monster and it could only come from the old school, when lower back health was nary a consideration. .
9. Fels Bar - Better than any spotter in our industry. If you have not used it, you need to and it's cheap! It has been around forever and I am thankful that one of you hapless misfits found out about it, told another alcoholic reject, who told another struggling grunt, until the word got to me. Great stuff.
10. Chemeister's Grease Eraser - Consistent performance is what I like about this product and it has been around for a long time. It was originally an enzyme based product.
11. Bridgepoint All Solv - No new formulas here but the best on many bad spots (paint, nail polish etc). It is a must have product for all of my spotter kits.
This is my personal list but there are other pieces of equipment and cleaning products that would fit in this category. I simply never used them.
