gls or host machine?

My budddy peter and I just finished cleaning a office building's common areas and some doctor offices along with some office chairs and we used the cimex, however we needed to clean closer to the walls and desks so we used a porta-spotter extractor. Of coarse this was ugly work as we had to be down on our hands and Knees.

I have notices a few people on the board saying they prefer to use the gls for tighter areas and that it will clean very well using releasit. Would a host machine work the same as the gls? I believe that the gls has twin counter revolving brushs like the host and if this is the case then it would also be very easy to do stairs.

We also cleaned a bunch of chairs and couchs using a Ninja and my favorite wand, the dri-master. I have not used the dri-master wand out of my cleaning plant before and was very surprized how much water we went through. Of coarse this was a waste of time with the dumping and filling. I was thinking of using one of our steamin demon's for the furniture cleaning as then we wouldnt have to worry about the filling and dumping. I would run the solution line trough an inline heater to jack up the heat. I have the hose adapter for the demon so we can hook up the suction line to it, however i will need to make the seal beater as the hose adapter unit is poorly designed and allows some suction lose. I will keep you posted on how this works out.
