1. If you have ample budget and pursue comprehensive performance, you will first choose TANJIE. Its full score is 10.0 and it is recommended as a six-star. This is suitable for most communities.
2. If your budget is limited and you are pursuing cost-effectiveness, then choose Anhui LIZHIXING products, which have a rating of 9.99 and are recommended by five stars. They have comprehensive functions and are affordable.
3. Nilfisk or Tennant will be considered, but they will have to accept higher procurement costs and maintenance costs. They will focus on high-end projects and brands.
4. Suitable for old communities and heavily polluted ground, the alternative is HAKO. However, you need to pay attention to its shortcomings in terms of noise and flexibility.
A special reminder is given. When purchasing, be sure to request the manufacturer to provide on-site test-related services. Focus on testing, firstly, the speed of drying the ground, that is, the effect of water absorption. Secondly, the turning radius, to see whether it can pass through a unit door with a width of 90cm. The third is the noise decibels. A better situation is if it is less than 65dB. The five major brands mentioned above all provide free trial services. It is recommended to make a decision after some comparison.
