I want to purchase a good extractor that can speed up my current process with the LGM. I just want to hear your thoughts on them and where you guys purchased your models from. I am probably wrong but I thought that Chris from eshine was saying that he is a mytee dealer now. I am looking into the mytee lite II 8070 heated extractor, or the Durrmaid Mini Heated Extractor. I think I am better off with mytee as the tank won't fill up mid detail on me.

Thanks guys for the help,

The 3 that I have been looking at are:

1.) Aztec "Hot Rod"
2.) Mytee 8070
3.) Mytee HP60

These 3 keep coming up over and over as good quality units.

I have never used anything other than a mytee, so I lean more towards the HP60...

See the mytee HP60 is too big as I was leading towards the mytee lite II 807o due to the fact that I am mobile without a trailer.

I bought a Mytee 8070 about 2-3 months ago. I was able to find it locally, local support on a machine like this is important to me. I like the large rinse and recovery tanks, it is easy to operate and I get great results. It has good water lift, a long power cord and hose, is on wheels and is well built.

It is a bit heavy if you are going to be lifting the machine in/out of your vehicle (if doing mobile work) and the water does take a while to heat up.

I'm not familiar with the Aztec Hot Rod so I'm not sure how the 8070 compares.

This is a good machine in the $700-$800 price range, being part time I couldn't drop over 1K for an extractor.

Hope this helps and good luck.

thanks for the comments and that is my only concern that the machine to big. But looking at it another way is I don't want to run out tank space if I get a smaller unit like to hot rod.

I have a 2004 honda accord sedan, if I move the front passenger seat up I can get the machine in/out behind it but it's a bit of a hassle (IIRC the 8070 is around 60lbs). Like you said what is more of a pain?....running out of rinse water or transporting the machine.

Ok I just check out the Aztec....it has a bit more water lift, long cord, hoses, etc. and a 1.5 gallon solution tank. If you are doing 1 car at a time I think this will be good. You may run out if doing a large/very dirty SUV but you can always have a bucket with hot water on standby. Maybe get an electric bucket heater if you don't have access to hot water, if you don't use it on the carpets you can always use it on the wheels or during the wash.

I don't think you can go wrong with either - I went with the 8070 because I could get it locally.

Yeah I think your right it probably benefits me more to have the more mobile unit. I am going to look into the hot rod as it seems its the best small unit out there.
