I have a sebo and use it in my janitorial business, machine works find but pain to clean out. However they only cost 500 bucks new, I got mine used for a 100 bucks. I have many different types of machines including 8 floor scrubbers, including a Oreck.

Do you find that the Sebo is a hassle to clean out after using it wet? That's what I've heard...thinking about getting one. I cleaned full time back in the 90s, but still keep some equipment around for my own house and I do some RVs and side jobs. I'm thinking VLM with an Oreck and a Sebo would be great for an old guy to lug around, but I heard the Sebo was meant to be a dry compound machine and it is time consuming to dismantle it to clean it from being used wet. BTW, I enjoy your videos, but I can't imagine hauling that Lowboy up to the second floor...I had one.

Yes, the SEBO is a huge hassle and I rarely use it because of that reason. It is great for the dry compound though and is really intended for that purpose. A few clients prefer the dry compound because it takes care of pet odors better. The lowboy is definitely not worth taking up the stairs. I rarely take that upstairs anymore unless I have a helper.

The dry compound that SEBO has works great. It can remove some spots and improve the appearance of the carpet quite a bit. If I have to, I pre treat the really tough spots with my spotters. Carpets are clean, fluffy, smell great a dry instantly. The drawback is the compound can linger in the carpet after vacuuming. Not to the naked eye of coarse, but you know it’s there.

@@bmcarpetcleaningandfloorca4410 I can't convince myself that dry compound is the way to go but I am always looking for the best way to kill pet odor...maybe there is some advantage to some product lingering in the carpet. As I mentioned, I'm an old school cleaner: PreKleen and Formula 90 for HWE and I was using Hot Knife for VLM. I've been experimenting and watching everyone's videos to get up to speed before I put myself out there again. I'm really a repair guy who cleans, rather than a cleaner who does repairs. Plus, I'm old...hence the desire for smaller equipment and less chemical inventory.
