Sounds like the cyclo is a much more versatile machine. If you can do carpets, paint, and bed liners with the thing thats insane! I was contemplating on whether to get the flex or the cyclone for myself, and since i dont really detail others cars very often the cyclone seems like the best bang for the buck. Quick question about the brushes, will these be able to be used for cleaning seats? Or is carpets the main focus with them?
