My name is Mike Conroy, my small company has concentrated on the vacation rental condominium market on the Gulf Coast of NW Florida and South Alabama. My business was started with a portable machine, a Cross American Recoil II. Over the course of “daydreaming” of a new a better machine, a Steamin Demon was suggested. To be honest I had no idea how this machine would help me, but started researching the machine. I read posts on the ICS bulletin board and called several Demon owners.
After quite a lot of deliberation I ordered my Demon. When the machine came in and I finally saw a Steamin Demon for the first time, I was concerned that I had made a BIG mistake. “How could this thing be capable of doing what was claimed?” I have a truckmount, a great portable, and a lot of other equipment and now well over $3000 spent on a machine that I had not even tried?
The next evening I had a large commercial job to do with glue down carpet, I took the Steamin Demon with me knowing I had my TM as a backup. Well that was the last time I looked back and I’ve been truly delighted with this product.
I would not get rid of this machine for anything. If I was starting over I would start with the Steamin Demon as my primary machine, and a small and less expensive vehicle. I’m seriously thinking of buying a small van and putting 2 Steamin Demons and several of my sons in it to help me clean condos in the busy season. I have even used the Steamin Demon rather than my 23 HP TM with a #4 blower and propane heat.
You can count on me as a very satisfied customer, and I would be pleased to share some of my ideas. It’s not just a commercial carpet machine by truly an all around performer and moneymaker.
