Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Cobra 8.0 suitable for both carpet and upholstery?
Yes. The adjustable 220 PSI pump and strong vacuum make it suitable for residential and commercial carpet, as well as upholstery and auto interiors when paired with the appropriate tools and wands.
Does the machine come with hoses and a wand?
In most configurations the Cobra 8.0 is sold as the base machine only, with hoses and wands available separately. This allows you to choose the exact tool set you prefer for carpet, upholstery, or auto detailing.
How portable is the Cobra 8.0?
The compact footprint, 3" front casters, 8" rear wheels, and approximately 70 lb weight make it easy for one person to move, load, and position, even in tight spaces or multi-floor buildings.
What kind of power does it require?
The heated model uses two 25' power cords, each drawing on a separate 15 amp circuit. This dual-cord design helps support the heater, pump, and dual vac motors without overloading a single circuit.
Is this a good option for auto detailing?
Yes. The compact size, strong suction, and heated solution make the Cobra 8.0 an excellent choice for auto detailers who need professional extraction results while working in tight interior spaces.
How often does it need to be refilled?
The 8-gallon solution and recovery tanks provide significantly longer run time than small spotters. Actual refill frequency depends on job size and technique, but most operators find the capacity well-suited for typical residential and light commercial work.
