There was so much information on this post but one of the questions you asked really stands out!
Based on my results, I feel that the Cimex is more maintenance and hot water extraction more restorative, am I correct?
I disagree when I hear this question. I've operated TM's, Now own Porty's (I hardly use them), Rotary, Cimex, OP and CRB.
Cimex can be used without HWE and can be used as a restorative measure. My favorite machine by far is my CRB but not just with commercial because I've been using it in all my residential homes as well for the last few months. The trick is using the Ultrasorb with Punch. I also clean with my OP but think about it. The sponges are the pads that get sucked up into the renovators and you just throw them away. The perfect amount of moisture and it literally cleaned right to the bottom of the fibers. I'd like to think that I mastered the use of the CRB but all it really takes is patience. The slower you go the faster you clean. I see guys on YouTube slinging the machine around but I think they're using it mostly for agitation.
I have a hard time answering your question because they are two different machines. I don't believe you can just use the Cimex once and your a pro. It takes little time to learn how to feather the solution but does an amazing job.
Rotary is great for commercial (although I prefer OP) but will clean it just as nice if you use it correctly.
All in all if you use HWE, Cimex, OP, or CRB I believe you need to master the use of your main go to machine if not all of them. They do all have their places but it is possible to make one particular machine or method work for your business.
