Can't Understand the Fascination with the Swivel Wand

[fjordking]

quite a few years ago before the swivel wand was all the rage
I had one mighty bently good wand well made for a mighty product
after around a month I had to get rid of it.
Reason
when doing regular cleaning and not needing the swivel just wanding with it trying to keep the wand straight and up right was a major pain in the wrist.
You were always making minor adjustments to your stroke
it was a major pain in the wrist.
cant wonder about all the fascination and shilling going on right now.

I know the guys right now the shills are virtually jerking each other off on the boards about the wand.

But it has the most airflow because my earometer says so???

Zero play. I still love my PC Ti pimped light and easy.

Ask Saiger he bought 2

Totally agree with Fjordking about the handling of this new swivel wand. I know they made it stiffer so it won't get out of whack to often, but we all know how that works.
$1700.00 ! R u kidding me? Unless u have money to burn why would you pay that kind of money for a wand?
Our Ti's r just fine, and while the swivel is a good idea nothing new there, they've been around a long time.
Your paying a ton for a very well machined wand, a 1 inch window( for what ?) and fancy colors and all, but really in the end you'll be asking yourself why didn't I just go and get one from PMF that's almost the same for far less, if a swivel is what u really want or need.
Swivel wands in this industry will make u work harder then your old standbys. Mark Saiger could make cleaning with a shovel look great if he wanted to. I say this out of total respect, pun intended.
I can't wait until his videos come out making the Devastator wand the next best thing to sliced bread.
LOL...

Working on it. How does $600 sound?

[Protechcleaning]

Oooo, then you could offer a matching stair tool Available in any length.

[sammillerscarpetcare]

Working on what a swivel??

[Joe]

Bruce is the master at converting the Prochem into a stairtool.
I keep waiting for demand on the swivel.
Only a few vets I know want it. It's mostly the rookies.

[Ryan]

"Mostly the rookies". Quite a statement. Happens to be the precise target market for every manufacturer in the industry. I would love to see a cost analysis of rookie verses veteran spending on so call innovative introductory tool in our industry.

Sorry guys, my businesslife has been extremely pressing lately. I drop in and post from time to time.

[fjordking]

I would only value the opinion from a person that paid full price for the wand in question or any tool for that matter.

If the person gets a killer deal or free just to post good feelings about the tool you have to question the motivations.

[Cleantech]

so many vets are stuck in their old ways

heck allot of them still don't believe in encapsulation

Ill be looking for a new wand soon but if you are working on a swivel ill wait....

[Joe]

How'd ya'll know I have a swivel anyway?
I've only talked to a few guys about it?
Surely it wasn't Dobson or Ryan. Was it Scott Noble or Joe Stoll?

[Cleantech]

is the swivel built around the vt14 or a new head?

[Joe]

I wanna put it on the PC Ti and sell it for $600.
I think that's fair don't you?

[fjordking]

that would be a great price point

[Cleantech]

Complete wand with swivel 600 or +600 for add on swivel?

[Joe]

Somebody's got Cleantech thinking ball bearings go for a premium.
I'll use diamond encrusted tweezers on yours Dustin.
The rest of you come together as a group and I will make this happen.
Who's in?

[Cleantech]

lol put me down for one

[fjordking]

so now my VT 12 is obsolete ?
