Oh, I like the Vario, Rick. A lot. Many sweet features to appreciate for sure. However, we will run two trucks for a single customer (property manager) from June-August, cleaning 6-9 units per truck per day. All of these apartments/townhomes have stairs. The power sprayer represents two trips per unit, 12-18 trips per day, 5-6 days per week. All up and down 1-3 flights of stairs. That kind of labor effort has really focused my attention on efficiency and round trips. With my system now, I roll the orbot in, and I have a cart I roll in that holds everything else I will use. I do not carry anything, and my round trips are at a bare minimum. Hence my bias for an on board sprayer, and why I no longer use a power sprayer. Too much additional labor ( and back ache...) during my prime money making season.
