by Mo Thu Oct 17, 2013 8:39 pm

by CleanTech Fri Oct 25, 2013 6:24 pm

Dustin's holding back his exuberance at my request.
Several reasons, but the main one: you know how one guy says his thoughts, two or three others agree, then it's fact. Defeats the purpose of the floater. We want all your thoughts, your own, individual thoughts.
WE'LL POST THEM ALL in due time.
THIS WAY WE CAN DECIDE ABOUT THIS THING BASED ON EACH PARTICIPANT'S OWN EXPERIENCE.

Joe, when do you want to get the 13" started?

by Joe Bristor Thu Oct 31, 2013 9:13 pm

When I get interest.
This Fall is turning into a real Hunker Down experience for a lot of RCs.
Obama's last hurrah, I don't blame them.
I'm still taking names and trying to put something together though.

by Davey Cracker Thu Oct 31, 2013 9:19 pm

I am Ready!!

Put my name on the list 12 times! Very Happy

Common Guys, lets get this going!.......if you're not already on the list to try the Zipper, speak up here! Cool

Sounds like Joe needs enough interest to pull the trigger and put this deal into action. dancing

Is anyone out there?!?! Geez Zes

WE going to make this US loaner a reality?......or do only those damned Canadians get to have all the fun!?

by Joe Bristor Thu Nov 14, 2013 4:04 am

Matter of fact, the US Floater starts tomorrow.

It's on the way to you, but unfortunately (man I really hate to say this but ...) you're the last stop, geographically. At least it's underway.
I think the first guy will buy it. If so we'll start another one asap.
Good news is we're gonna restrict it to you guys here.
Hope this is acceptable.

by Davey Cracker Fri Nov 15, 2013 1:15 am

Just glad to hear it's starting it's journey today!...Even tho I'm last, I hope that means it will get here eventually! cheers

by Ryan S Fri Nov 15, 2013 6:16 am

I told Santa to hold off on my Christmas till I get my hands on the Zipper. He agreed cheers

by Bill Soukoreff Fri Nov 29, 2013 12:48 pm

Dustin called me yesterday and said he shipped out the Zipper. I should be able to pick it up Saturday!

Joe, is two weeks reasonable for me? I have a commercial job booked for December 13 that I would be perfect. Who do I send it to next?

by Bill Soukoreff Wed Dec 04, 2013 1:48 pm

OK, i received the Zipper today. Impressive out of the box no matter how many videos I have seen of it. The quality really does take you back, it is that good.

I have 15,000 sq/ft of carpet tile to clean this Friday/Saturday. Only three months old and vacuumed religiously so it only needs a light clean. More it will be a test of speed and dry times compared to Cimex. Then next week I will use it on residential for a few days and I can ship it on by next week Friday.

by CleanTech Wed Dec 04, 2013 2:45 pm

what a nightmare greyhound was to deal with lol

glad it finally got there

by Bill Soukoreff Sat Dec 07, 2013 5:05 pm

Well, just finished cleaning 20,000 sq/ft of carpet tiles with the Zipper in minus 40C with the windchill. Next week, all residential.

Yea Well, so how was it? lol!

Less back breaking than using a wand?......20k sf is a lot of carpet to clean no matter what method or equip being used, I think. wink

by Bill Soukoreff Sat Dec 07, 2013 5:39 pm

I would love to spill the beans, but Joe wants us to wait until after the loaner program ends so we don't build up hype and influence each other. What I can say us that the Cimex is now only good for areas where the use of a truckmount is impossible!

by Bill Soukoreff Sat Dec 07, 2013 5:56 pm

Hey Eric (or anyone else here), not sure if you read this, but what advice for using it residential carpet? Wheel height adjustments?

by Erik Sat Dec 07, 2013 7:44 pm

I would like to go over it with you, but I would have a hard time typing out the details. Feel free to give me a call, I'll be up late.
(734) 675-8440 Thanks!

by Bill Soukoreff Sat Dec 07, 2013 9:17 pm

Thanks Eric for spending the time on the phone with me. I can't wait to start using it next week on some residential jobs.
