Can't speak for the Mculloch, but I have the Firebird and it does everything I need it to do for a weekend / hobbyist detailer. Has worked great so far....:xyxthumbs:
I have the McCulloch 1385 and it has been a rugged hard working machine for me. Having 2 hours of steam per fill up is priceless. I've thought many times of upgrading to a bigger steamer but see no reason since they McCulloch has never failed to do anything I need.
