Vacuum Surface Cleaners?

Who has used several different options out there regarding vacuum surface cleaners. I want at least 20" and want it to be a workhorse. Got any ideas on the best option.

Sirocco
Steel Eagle
Lubova
Hydrotek
 
I recently got a Lubova but haven't had a chance to use it yet. My trailer is dismantled for upkeep. The 16 inch steel eagle that I have is all I could compare it to any how. I'll let you know when we fire it up.
 
Michael just out of curiosity what are you planning to clean with it.. I am thinking of getting a unit to clean interior tile floors.. I looked at a site that has the 21 inch surface cleaner for 1195.00 and I figure the vac will be at leaat 1200 or so.. So at about 3 grand inclusing hoses and such I would have to bid 6 good jobs to pay for it.. One of my biggest prospects in buy a vac surface cleaner is to sale it;s service to car dealerships service dept's.. I can see a great money making plan there.. Just wonderering what you had in mind for your new unit ?

John, would you mind sharing the information that you found. I have had a few requests for cleaning interior floors. I would appreciate the info.
Thanks
 
Sunbrite had an article on the lubova (mosmatic) in their last newsletter.

Ask Nic' or Tracy for a copy.

"Swest" uses a sirocco he loves his.

"Chris C" loves his steel eagle so does "usarose".

The videos of the hydrotek that Russ J posed and the ones on Hydortek website make the product look good.

I use ours where we need to move water across large asphalt areas to save time rinsing. More speed when washing pays for the equipment. We've been using an electric for quite some time but it had limtations. So now I got a 24hp Steel Eagle Fury and picked up that Lubova. We'll see if it adds some speed over the 16 inch and electric we been using.

Why did you go with the steel eagel?

I bought a used one with 80 hours on it. Saved $$ over buying something else new.
