The Chem-Tex ZX series portable extractors are designed like a dolly which makes it easier to go upstairs and downstairs without possibly causing injury to its operators. On the other hand, plastic bodied portables have a bulky design that makes it hard to move it from the first floor to the second without extra help. You would need at least one more helper to lift it.
Another advantage of ZX portable carpet cleaning machines is the accurate cubic design that perfectly fits anywhere in your van, closet, garage, etc. Whereas, plastic bodied portables occupy a lot more space because of their rounded body shape.
Another huge advantage of our ZX portable series is the aluminum body. Most other portable manufacturers use plastic because it is cheaper and faster to make. We only use marine grade aluminum to make our portable machines because portables with a metal body are more reliable and durable than any other plastic bodied portable. If your plastic machine gets banged up or dropped for any reason, it can crack and therefore become useless. Whereas, our aluminum bodied ZX carpet cleaning machine will simply have a dent which will have no effect on its productivity or efficiency.
