Let me start by saying this Practisol cleaning gun is a beast when it works properly. The first time I used it on my SUV's carpet, I was shocked at how easily it lifted ground-in dirt that regular vacuuming couldn't touch. The dual-function design (air blowing and water spraying) is genius - I could dust my dashboard first, then switch to deep cleaning mode for the seats.

The ergonomic handle truly makes a difference during long detailing sessions. Unlike bulkier cleaners, this one feels light and comfortable even after 30 minutes of continuous use. I particularly appreciate the trigger guard that prevents finger fatigue - small but thoughtful touches like this show the designers actually considered real-world use.

However... (and this is a big however) the plastic connector between the handle and liquid tank is disappointingly fragile. Like several reviewers mentioned, mine snapped during just my third use when the tank was only half-full. For a tool that handles 100+ psi pressure, this weak point is baffling. When functional though, the cleaning power is phenomenal - it made short work of coffee stains in cup holders and rejuvenated my gray floor mats.

Pro tip: Always blow air through for 30 seconds after use as instructed. I learned this the hard way when mine clogged after skipping this step once. Also, stick strictly to the 100-160 psi range - any higher and you're gambling with the lifespan.

Final verdict? At its price point, it's worth trying if you're okay with potentially needing replacements. The cleaning performance rivals professional-grade tools when it works, but build quality inconsistencies make it feel like a lottery purchase. For casual users, it's fantastic; for mobile detailers using it daily, invest in something more heavy-duty.
