I'm in the market for a new surface cleaner and was wondering which one you guys have had the best luck with. I'm now running a 24" steel eagle but I'm looking for something more maneuverable. I was looking at mosmatic and ran across two, one is a http://shop.pressurewasherky.us/Professional-Duty-21-Surface-Cleaner-MOS80771.htm and the other is http://shop.pressurewasherky.us/Commercial-Duty-21-Surface-Cleaner-MOS80774.htm. Whats your thoughts. Thanks in advance.

Exactly what do you mean by more maneuverable?
Do you mean lighter weight?
Do you mean get under obstacles?
Do you mean get closer to walls?
What I hate about surface cleaners with all castor wheels is that it is harder to go in straight lines, especially if there are rocks or small debris on the surface when cleaning, they stop the small wheels and cause you to go crooked or you bump into things when trying to clean. Another thing is most of the models I have seen have the handles that you have to hold up all the time, I prefer the handle on the Big Guy or the 24" Steel Eagle, you can push and steer that one with a few fingers if needed.
This is just personal preference.
I can see where the mosmatic will be a lot lighter in weight and will get under obstacles easier.
You can put a 90 degree elbow above the swivel so you can get under low obstacles like benches and tables, you can do this with just about any surface cleaner out there. I have them on just about all my surface cleaners and it does make a big difference.
If Mosmatic would make a lawnmower type handle for their surface cleaners, that would really be great, maybe one of the vendors could have them made and make a retro-kit? This would make it more comfortable for those jobs that last all day long like huge sidewalk jobs, shopping centers or parking lots.

The Hydrotek surface cleaners you can practically get under anything with. Their handles will practically touch the ground.

DeJay I really don't like casters....... Also I like a fixed handle like a big guy or a water jet. Post a picture of your steel eagle if you wanna sell it.

Mosmatics are great whisper wash is a good one also. I think the mosmatics are a little heavier than the whisper wash but i think they have the best swivel in the industry.

I have always favored the Steel Eagle. i used one for over 12 years. it paid for itself on the very first job back in 1995.
I just love my Water Jet
