I had mentioned this machine on the Vintage forum but thought it best discussed here. I haven't seen any discussion about these relatively new items. I had mentioned that I team it up with my Kirby for deep carpet cleaning. I use it also for bathroom tile and tub. Here is the link. I had been watching them on the web for over two years before I bought mine. The link below takes you to an add for the newer model of the one I have. I think they are more common in Europe. Anyone else out there have one of these or have used one of these? Waddya think? Bruce C.
