fantastic when used right. these machines are intended to rinse and dry. elbow grease is most definitely required. thats the same for anything other than the pro-grade uprights with spinning / rotating brushes.to start with i would recommend the following addition items: non-rubber knee pads (will leave marks when wet), a separate scrubbing brush, and a spray bottle. Personally i like to pre-soak the area with the detergent using warm water and the spray bottle, leave it a few minutes then scrub to agitate the dirt, then use the machine and its clean water to rise and lift the dirt.The machine itself is easy to use, just make sure the cap on the clean tank is screwed tight as it points down.The power lead is heavy duty and a good length to keep you, machine and water away from the mains.Suction lead is a little on the short side for my liking, but ideal for stairs and furniture. One of the reasons i recommend a separate scrubbing brush is to reduce wear and tear on the hose where it meets the handle (as many others have mentioned this is a point off weakness). You're going to be down there scrubbing either way, you might as well get a comfortable scrubber for the job.The unit itself is on the noisy side but its understandable. the motor is trying to suck up water, not just air. and its pumping water to the handle too. the machine is compact and easy to use, though there is no locking function on either tank so dont knock it over. Hose and power lead stow away nice and tidy and the handle is held securely in place.results: are fantastic if you are willing to put the work in. a few hours work has made an off-white bedroom carpet and a grey corridor carpet look like new and completely removed high traffic dirt marks. like any of these machines it does not leave area completely dry but with the help of a fan on low power, 2 hours later its dry to the touch with bare feet.over all verdict? worth the money if you're willing to put in the effort. these compact machines are there to aid you, not do it for you.

Very effective little machine! Carpet and upholstery cleaners all work the same way. They spray detergent solution out then suck it back up from the fabric.Where this machine differs from cheaper options is that it does both of those actions extremely effectively. The spray is a fine and evenly distributed and the vacuum is very powerful.The other great thing about this cleaner is the stiff brush on the end of the nozzle which is really effective at scrubbing out dirt. It's simple to operate, relatively mess-free and well built.

Bought to clean my cars interior seats as after 8 years the drivers seat was looking more grey than the blue counter part seat. It brought it up pretty well, so good in fact the passenger seat now looks dirty compared to the drivers so will have to clean that one in summer when its warmer.Though a point that i would mark it down for would be that the suction could be better as where the head detach button is there is a noticeable gap causing a noticeable level of suction to be lost which is an annoying point.Its a good unit for the price and would recommend to anyone but that snag is a markdown.Cable length is great.Noise its loud.Hose length is good.Weight its got some mass but nothing crazy.Its a good product and the water in the waste tub shows that it is sucking out dirty water.

The media could not be loaded. I have to say I'm pretty impressed with this carpet cleaner. I've been avoiding buying one because they always seemed too pricey to me but I'm so glad I finally did it! I chose this one over others as the reviews seemed trustworthy and I'd seen a video review. My rug has gradually been getting dirtier over the last 18 months of having a baby and there were some really stubborn stains on there from god knows what. As you can see from the photos, it's done a great job for a first pass over - took me around 1hr and 1 tank of water (rug is 240x300 and I did about half id say). I'm sure once I've gone over it another couple of times it'll look like new again (atleast until my toddler is let loose on it).Ease of use: it's straightforward to use, it's really easy to change the water too but I will say that as the instructions are only photos, it took me a minute to work everything out.Portability: it's really compact so good to store and move about. It is a bit heavy when the water is in it but that's to be expected, it isn't too difficult to maneuver though.Smell: there's no smell to the cleaning solution it comes with so that was a nice touch (for me personally)Versatility: as it comes with two different sized heads, you can clean larger and smaller items. I've so far cleaned my rug, a computer chair and my car seats with relative ease.Noise: It's super noisy, it isn't ideal but for the results it's worth it I'd say.Hose: The hose is a bit short, I'm not usually one who would care about hose length but you do have to have the machine pretty close to use it without it tugging.Other points: it can generally get quite tiring to constantly scrub the surface but I've read that you can get heads with automatic brushes so I would probably look into that. The cleaning solution it comes with seems small but you literally need a capful for a full tank so it'll take a long while before I need to replace - definitely a bonus.Overall it's great, so glad I bought it. I can't find enough things to clean.
