Water lift is the figure that decides the result
An extractor sprays hot solution into a seat and then has to pull it back out. Water lift is how hard it pulls, measured in inches, and it is the difference between a seat that is damp for an hour and a seat that is wet until tomorrow. The 8070 publishes 130 inches against the S-300H’s 85, and that gap is the honest reason for the price difference.
Heat is the other half. Both are heated machines, at 1,000 watts and 600 watts respectively, and heat is what breaks down set-in stains rather than just wetting them. A non-heated extractor is a wet vacuum with ambitions, which is why both of these sit above that class in the machine roundup.
The smaller machine publishes its weight
Mytee publish 26 lbs for the S-300H with handle and wheels, and publish no weight at all for the 4 gallon 8070. For anyone working in a driveway, on a customer’s street or up a ramp into a garage, a published weight you can plan around is worth more than 45 extra inches of lift you cannot carry.
The tank size cuts the same way in both directions. Four gallons means fewer interruptions on a full interior; one gallon means refilling partway through a set of seats, and it also means a machine that fits in a trunk between jobs.
Who each machine is actually for
The 8070 is a shop machine: 4 gallons, a three-stage motor, a push handle and the highest published figures in this ledger. If interiors are what you sell, the faster drying and the fewer refills pay for themselves in appointments.
The S-300H is the machine for a mobile detailer or a serious enthusiast, and it is the best published specification per dollar in the category: five figures published against the 8070’s four, at two thirds of the price. The carpet cleaner roundup covers the chemicals that go in either one.
Who should buy which
- Mobile work, or one car at a time: Mytee S-300H Tempo, $967.00, 26 lbs published.
- A shop doing interiors daily: Mytee Lite 8070, $1,475.00, 130 inches of lift.
- The fastest drying seats: the 8070, on published water lift.
- The best published specification per dollar: the S-300H.
- One family car and a weekend: neither, read whether an extractor is worth it.
Every pick, with the working
Each entry lists the specifications the maker publishes, the axis scores those specifications produce, and what you give up. Rows that read “Not published” are not omissions on our side: they are figures the maker will not commit to in writing, and they cost the product points on the transparency axis.
Our pickThe best published specification per dollar in the category
Mytee S-300H Tempo Heated Carpet Extractor
Mytee
$967.00 for a 1 gallon machine with 85 inches of water lift, a 600 watt heater, 26 lbs of weight and roto-molded housing — five published figures. Heat is what separates an extractor from a wet vacuum, and this is the cheapest machine here that has it.
- Tank capacity
- 1 gallon
- Water lift
- 85 inches
- Heater
- 600 watts
- Weight
- 26 lbs, with handle and wheels
- Housing
- Roto-molded
- Warranty
- Not published
What it does well
- 85 inches of water lift published, which is the figure that decides how dry the seat is afterwards
- 600 watt heater published, and heat is what actually breaks down set stains
- 26 lbs with handle and wheels, so it moves between cars without a second person
- Roto-molded housing published rather than described as durable
Who it is not for
- 1 gallon tank means frequent refilling on a whole interior
- $967.00 is a professional-tier price for a home user
- No warranty term published on this listing
How this score was calculated
- Protection claimdropped
- Nothing in this category is bought on how long it lasts, so the axis is dropped and the other weights are re-normalized.
- Published tank capacity0.0/10, weight 22%
- 1 gallons, scored on a band running from 1 to 5. Published by Mytee.
- Cost per ouncedropped
- This is not a consumable, so cost per ounce says nothing useful and the axis is dropped.
- Price against the ceiling1.9/10, weight 14%
- A listed $967.00 against the $1200 one upgrade in this category realistically tops out at. A list price captured on the compile date, not a live price and not what you will pay.
- Written commitmentdropped
- Mytee publishes no warranty term on this product's own page, so the axis is dropped. On a tool that is worth noticing, and it costs the product points on transparency instead.
- Spec transparency8.3/10, weight 18%
- 5 of the 6 specifications we went looking for are published by Mytee. Every blank row below is something the maker will not put in writing, and it costs the product points here.
