CT-16DX
Kit
A home or offfice with extensive areas of wall-to-wall
carpeting and "high-pile" carpets with a padded
backing may indicate the need for a premium featured electric
brush. The width and weight of the brush can effect the
ease and the speed of how fast you finish and the results
you receive.
Consider
features like a low-profile and headlight — for
vacuuming under furnishings; height adjustment —
to match the brush to the floor surface for more effective
cleaning; a reset button - to prevent belt and motor burnout
where an object has stopped the brush-roll; and other
extras — like an easy release or "above-the-floor"
cleaning, and wrap-around bumpers to protect furnishings.
The
hose, which provides power to the brush, should be as
lightweight as possibly, with a swivel handle and numerous
options for hand position — providing maximum control
while reducing wrist strain and unwanted kinks. The hose
should feature "cord-management", keeping cords
out of the way and making "above the floor"
cleaning less of a hassle. Finally, the handle should
be able to roate 90 degrees to the floor for the lowest
possible profile when cleaning under beds and furniture.
Add a telescopic wand to custom fit the user to his surroundings.

CTK
1430-DX Kit
For homes with substantial areas of "higher pile"
carpeting, a powerhead featuring a "beater-bar"
can be effective in removing dirt that is deeply embedded
in hard to reach carpet surfaces and layers.
Consider
features like a headlight — for vacuuming under
furnishings; height adjustment — to match the brush
to the floor surface for more effective cleaning; a reset
button — to prevent belt and motor burnout where
an object has stopped the brush-roll; and other extras
— like an easy-release for "above-the-floor"
cleaning and wraparaound bumpers to protect furnishings.
The
hose, which provides power to the brush, should be as
lightweight as possible and provide a swivel handle to
prevent wrist strain and kinks. The hose should feature
"cord-management", keeping cords out of the
way and making "above-the-floor" cleaning less
of a hassle. With the increased use of hard floors in
most homes today, add a second set of wands and hard floor
tools designed for gentle treatment of these surfaces.
A ratchet telescopic wand "custom fits" the
user to his work. Natural fill dusting and upholstery
tools give great results in cleaning furnishings |
CT-210
Kit
Homes with moderate amounts of wall-to-wall and area rugs
requiring a lightweight, nimble platform should consider
the economic CT-210 Kit.
This
kit features the CT-210 powerhead with a slightly smaller
footprint than either the 16 or 14DX models.
Lighter
in weight and narrower in width, it provides solid performance
plus maneuverability, in a smaller package with less frills.
The CT-210 features a brush monitoring window to troubleshoot
performance and identify clogs; a foot pedal for easy
off and on operation; a headlight; large wheels and wrap-around
bumper; a swivel neck; and flat belt for quick changes.
Providing
power to the brush, the kit includes a lightweight, crushproof
hose with a swivel handle and numerous options for hand
position -- providing maximum control while reducing wrist
straight and unwanted hose kinks. An integrated "cord-management"
wand keeps cords out of the way and an additional set
of wands makes "above the floor" cleaning a
snap.
The
hard floor and accessory tools which complete the kit
offer gentle cleaning for all your treasured furniture
and fine upholsteries. |
CT-110
Kit
Smaller homes, homes with limited use of carpet, or carpets
laid directly over hard surfaces (like the use of oriental
rugs) may best be served by an electric brush without
a beater bar.
Many
applications favoring this style of brush use area rugs
extensively -- making weight and maneuverability important
elements in finding brush that's comfortable for you.
Features like the wrap-around bumpers (to protect furniture)
and large wheels (to protect floor surfaces as your travel
on and off the carpet's edge) should be considered. Selecting
a brush without a headlight also has advantages -- a lower
profile makes getting under furnishings easy.
Consider
a hose that is as lightweight as possible. It should feature
a swivel handle to prevent kinks and wrist strain. "Cord
management" on wands will make the use of other accessories
safe and easy.
A
second set of high quality hard floor tools is a must
in this package since hard floor may represent the primary
floor surface.
Consider
a natural fill floor brush to protect delicate floor finishes
with sufficient width to get the job done quickly. Add
a telescopic wand to adjust the fit and length of the
wand to the user, great for above-the-floor cleaning and
a welcome addition to any package. |
CT-12DX
Kit
Smaller
homes, homes with mostly hard floors and area rugs can
get the power and features of a premium 14" powerhead
in a 12" package.
The
compact CT-12DX powerhead has a slightly smaller footprint
than the CT-14DX, but is as reliable as it is durable.
The full wrap-around bumper is gentle on furnishings and
baseboards. The height adjustment feature makes for excellent
grooming on all carpet types with wheels designed to eliminate
tracks. The "chevron" brushroll ensures that
extra edge in pickup and cleanability. The headlight illuminates
the cleaning path under furnishings and in less well-lit
areas.
An
important component in any kit, the electric brush, also
provides an overall measure of a kit's quality. It should
be as easy to use and as lightweight as the powerhead,
with a swivel neck and good balance. "Cord management"
should keep power cords from underfoot making use of other
accessories safe and easy.
High
quality accessory tools, such as a floor brush, is important
in a kit where hard floor surfaces may represent the primary
cleaning surface. Consider a natural brush fill to protect
delicate floor finishes with sufficient width to get the
job done with a minimum of fuss. Adding a telescopic wand
to a kit is an important plus. |
