I'm looking for a portable spot cleaner that is 1) built better than the retail units sold at places like Wal-Mart, Lowe's, and Home Depot, and 2) small and light weight.
I've run the gamut of units like Bissell's Green Machine, and probably most of the other brands that have models that are basically the same thing. All work okay when new, but they usually don't even last a year before something goes wrong with them. Fed up with having to buy a new one every year, I decided to go with more of a commercial type unit, the Mytee S-300 Tempo Spotter. It's an awesome unit, puts down a lot of solution, great suction, built like a tank, and I doubt anything would ever go wrong with it. However, the main unit is very heavy and cumbersome to carry around, and the large diameter hose is difficult to handle for me, almost impossible for my wife to use.
Is there one made that fits somewhere in the middle? I need something that's built well enough to last, and is light enough and easy enough for my wife to handle. I realize such a unit is going to be expensive, but I don't care. It would be worth the price if such a unit is available...
