Perfect for smaller projects!
The reviews on this unit were so/so, but I desperately needed a solution. I took a gamble and thrilled I did.I own a janitorial company and battle residue left from sidewalk rock salt each winter. No matter how much mopping, a film remains that requires special equipment loaded up in a box truck to scrub the floor. This is a reoccurring headache.I wanted to find something compact that a single team member could load in the car to rapidly remedy these issues. These units are approximately the size of a commercial vacuum and easily maneuver in tight spaces. Not only do they save time and effort, but they scrub as well as some $6-$7,000 commercial units. I’m very pleased with this and staff feedback has been great.Pros:Powerful ScrubbingCompactEasy UseCons:Release Handle - Stiff/difficult to remove the fresh/dirty collection tanks. I’ve had more that one bad pinch on my palm or fingers.Wand- Beware, there is a rotating dial to turn on/off the handheld wand vs floor extraction. It’s hard to see the setting, which can lead to frustration when it won’t pull water from the floor. Once you know it’s there, it’s great!I’d definitely recommend this unit for anyone needing a unit that’s easy to store, easy to transport, and easy to use. It’s great for small paces.

Excellent water pickup
The two squeegees pick up water in both directions leaving tile very dry and clean. Grout lines are another, I had hope the grout would be cleaner. Much better product than the made for home vertical scrubbers that I have owned. Is it worth $1000.00? I think so but $600.00 is probably a more reasonable price for the performance this machine offers.

Not impressed
Not really that impressed with this machine. And I was really excited about this one. Had it less than two weeks and my husband went to just turn it and the handle broke off. Plus, it doesn’t scrub very good on tile floors (which is why we bought it). Not too impressed. And way too high of a price to pay for it to break so fast. I mean, $1300 is a lot of money! Also cannot find replacement parts for this machine! Spending this much on a machine for your business and then it breaking after two weeks is uncalled for! They should give us a refund!!

Breaks a lot. Cheaply made. Great when it works
I like how compact this is. Works like a champ- when it works. The handle broke in week 1. The locking mechanism that holds the brush in place broke within 30 days. Replaced it. Then the brush bearing assembly broke. All in all- this is cheaply made. Definitely not worth a grand for this unit. We have a 2000 sq ft laundromat with concrete floors. Gets cleaned about 1x per day. So this unit does not get a lot of use. Also the grey water tank comes apart in the middle, which is absurd, for 2 reasons. 1 is that there should be no reason I need to disassemble the grey water tank. I am not cleaning out sewers. 2nd is that because it is cheaply made, it now no longer stays clipped shut with the janky clip on the front that is supposed to hold it closed. So every time you go to dump the tank you get grey water all over the place and on you. I'd return this in a heartbeat if I could.

Wonderful design!
The media could not be loaded. I saw a negative review on this machine. We believe it was an user error. This machine truly keeps our floor clean and wonderfully works every time.We would like to see if there is a stronger brush in the store for our next purchase though.Thank you for reading my review!

Didn’t work well for me
Was not pleased with this machine.Let’s just say I had to mop after I scrubbed the floors.Unless there was a defect in the machine I received,I would not recommend.I returned and they gave me a full refund

Electrical Issues and Poor Customer Service
I purchased two machines. Both have electrical issues from the low quality cord. The second machines shorted out after a few months requiring replacement parts. It has been in the shop for going on ten months now. They promise parts have been sent, but don't show up. They finally acknowledged that do not have enough replacement parts for the high demand. Evidently these electrical issues are common. $1,100 for this machine and I doubt I will ever see it run again.

Pro results worth every penny
When we clean large areas of wood, tile, vinyl or linoleum this unit saves the day and our shoulders. Normally we use microfiber pads on a stick washing, rinsing and washing again. Now we use our micro fibers for edging which the Clarke is incapable of but the work it does for 97% of the area is incredible. Water control (on/off) enables us to wash and scrub on the forward, suck and scrub on the pull back and our arms aren’t screaming. We also use it for shampooing carpets and industrial runners same motion. It’s only built for this purpose and built well for it. No bigger than an old Hoover upright but easy to clean/ fill/dump/use. We are saving time doing a better job and saving $$ on chiropractors. Yes a bit of a learning curve as with any industrial equipment. Make sure you don’t let it run while not moving why? Because it works
