HOW DO CHALLENGER OWNERS FEEL ABOUT THEIR MACHINES?

Doug Nipp. Texan Doug Nipp uses his Challenger in two situations: he is both a self employed carpet cleaner, and he provides regularly contracted carpet cleaning services for an apartment complex.  The Challenger does it all for him, even in the most heavily soiled rental units. "It does it everything I ask of it, and I love the way it cleans.  Even after running for hours on end, it has never overheated on me."

Lisa Richardson manages an apartment community in Plainfield, Indiana. She personally cleans its carpets when units become empty, as well as two other apartment complexes.  Why does she love her Challenger?  "It cleans 'awesome', is easy to use; is excellent in removing spots and stains; and the cost of cleaning chemicals is very low."

Brian in Illinois (he asked that we omit his last name) was asked what he liked best about his Challenger.  Brian, who has lots of experience cleaning carpets in rental communities, answered: "It gets out stains that steamers can't get.  It's great on Berber.  The quality of the results enables me to price it as a premium service.  It's so easy to use.  Even the worst looking carpet comes right back."

Alan Randa is a professional carpet cleaner in Loveland, Colorado. He has had extensive experience with truck-mounted (hot water extraction) carpet cleaning, and finds that the Challenger brings up sand and soil much better than those methods.  "When I come in after an HWE cleaner, people are amazed at how much soil I get out of the carpets...I love my Challenger, and wouldn't be without it."

Kyle was a truck mount owning steam cleaner for fifteen years. A couple of years ago, his truck mount needed to be taken off the road for some repairs. He purchased a Challenger Pad Machine to use while his truck was being serviced. Kyle admits that his expectations were not particularly high as to how his temporary replacement machine would perform. 

He says he soon realized "This really works!. My long-time high-end customers saw that they were still receiving quality carpet cleaning as before, but they were delighted that their drying times had been greatly reduced." He saw that his Challenger could also really perform in cleaning up trashed-out carpeting in nasty rental apartments."The set-up time is so much quicker and easier than with the truck mount." Kyle has no plans to go back to his former cleaning method.
