What is the difference between the CRB-Clean machines and the Austrian models?
What is the difference between the CRB-Clean machines and the Austrian models?
CRB-Clean units provide the same CRB cleaning functionality at a more economical price point, making them an excellent choice for cleaners who want professional results without the cost of a premium machine. While they’re not built quite as heavy-duty as the Austrian models and may not have the same decades-long lifespan, they deliver strong agitation, reliable performance, and all the core functionality needed for residential cleaning and commercial use.
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option that still gets the job done well, CRB Clean models are a smart, cost-effective solution.
