No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

the not-comercial extractors don't have the same kind of extraction power that the commercial machines do. They're great for mitigating high traffic areas... but eventually you'll want to rent a commercial system. (1-3 times a year,). the commercial extractors will make a huge difference for deep cleans. especially on thick-pile carpets.
The pack-vacuum-like commercial extractors start at around 1500.
Interesting, which commercial machines are you referring to?
I did a little research when I bought mine, I think mostly vacuum wars testing, and I think they found similar results, with the commercial systems just having larger tanks. That said, I don't expect their tests are super scientific or anything so I'm legitimately curious.
My carpets aren't thick at all though, and most of what I'm cleaning is exclusively surface level anyway.
We used tenant co for our machines, looking at it their website, the ex-sc1020
Any of the medium-size commercial machines are going work better though. Nobody would pay the 2-5k for a medium sized extractor if it was simply tank size. And that’s really the entry level machines.
Also? Another benefit is not having to store it. I’m… not saying the retail things don’t have their benefits, but they’re not really deep-cleaning like a professional service or comercial rental will.
Oh cool. Yeah that's quite different from anything vacuum wars ever tested out. Thanks!
