> 24 hourMy carpet is very old but with 2 old dogs, I’m not ready to change it now. The carpet cleaner worked great, dried fast, and left my carpet soft. I used solution recommended with cleaner. I was very happy for the results and price.

> 24 hourI love this shampooer it is the first I e ever had that sprays out good but also pulls the water back out of the carpet. AND your carpet looks clean. And not a bad price tag either look at my white carpet again. Easy to use WOW!!! I LOVE IT!!!

> 24 hourI love how this cleans the carpet. The key is to clean in small sections and go over a few times so get all the water up. The main thing I don’t like is even with vacuuming this cleaner will pick up a lot of extra hair which is great except it doesn’t have a place to dispense it so it just gets stuck in the brushes so I’m constantly stopping and pulling fur out. As far as how it cleans I love it. I wish it had upholstery attachments

> 24 hourI’ve been researching for the best carpet cleaner, reading reviews and comparing. Finally decided on this one and I do not regret it. I love this carpet cleaner. Con: small water tank. But way more pros than cons especially for the price. It has great suction and it cleans so good. I just received it today and did the entire apartment. I love it!

> 24 hourI received this last week. I have cleaned 3 carpets so far. I have a handheld spot cleaner and a very large sanitaire machine that holds 6 gallons of water. This machine is so easy to use. In a weird sort of way, its almost fun to use. Its great for traffic areas that take a beating. Other reviewers mentioned the small tank size. For me, it wasnt a problem. At least the water stays hot while I am cleaning the carpet. If the suction stops working, it means the float has popped up and the machine will not suck up any more water. You need to empty the tank. You can hear the change in the sound of the machine when that happens. Also, make sure the top gray cap is pushed in all the way. Some people said they need two hands to push the machine because the handle doesnt move back. There is a lever to step on so you can pivot the handle back just like an upright vacuum. For the people that have leaks, make sure the ring around the float is not cross-threaded or loose and the cap on the clean water tank is screwed on properly and snug. Of course make sure you have connected both tanks to the machine properly. I snap down both handles on the dirty water tank at the same time when I put it back on the machine. Some tips: * Make sure you thoroughly vacuum first. Really. * Use very hot water from your tap. Dont boil water and use it. There is a max of 140 degrees listed on the clean water tank. * Use the smallest bit of carpet soap. Dont use laundry or dish soap. Add white vinegar to the clean water tank too. * If you have really dirty areas, you can use the machine without the dirty water tank in place. That way you can get a fair amount of cleaning solution into the carpet. Then attach the dirty water tank and suck it up. Dont get the carpet too wet. * After you are done, put only hot water (no soap) in the clean water tank and go over the carpet again. Leftover carpet soap residue attracts dirt. * To extract as much water as you can from the carpet, lean over the machine, loop your hand under the handle on the dirty water tank and push the machine while pressing it into the carpet. * Set up a box fan on high until you are sure the rug is dry. Dig your fingers into the carpet fibers to check. * After you are done cleaning, open the side gray cap and dump the dirty water. Unscrew the ring from the float assembly and clean the float too. Put the float and ring back together. Leave the side gray cap open. * I put the cap from the clean tank inside the cleaned out dirty water tank. Unscrew the ring on the float assembly so you can put the cap inside. I put a paper towel under the clean water tank and slid it back on the grooves so it can air dry. * Take the machine to your sink without the tanks. I was amazed how much cat hair and grit there was stuck underneath. Give the underneath a good spray and check the red rubber bar next to the rotating brush. * I put it up on two wood blocks so the bottom can dry. * Pet stains are a two part cleaning project. Theres the stain and theres the odor. For the odor, you need a pet enzyme cleaner. Follow the directions on the bottle. Your pet may go back in the same place again if you dont remove the odor. Their noses are lower to the carpet and better at detecting odors than ours so get down after the carpet is dry and give it a good sniff. *** Buy this machine. Your carpets are dirtier than you think***

> 24 hourThe last time i bought a carpet cleaner was maybe 20 years ago. I feel like there must have been some advances in the technology because this cleaner was lighter, faster, and so much better than my older one (even when it was new) I finished my living room and hall in maybe an hour and a half where as before it’d take me half a day. Carpet also dried in just a few hours. Its been a few weeks and my living room carpet still looks great. I’m very impressed!

> 24 hourYou will also want: + Large Floor Fan + Dehumidifier + Air Purifier My Situation: I live in an apartment that is mostly carpet. I have lived at this apartment going on 3 years now and have only vacuumed before. I have two cats and two dogs, one of which is elderly and the other is a puppy. My Review: The instructions werent very good for someone who has never used a carpet cleaner before, though I did appreciate the diagrams regarding how to take it apart and clean it. As far as the actual cleaning, it does seem to work really well, but I can confirm the numerous reviews that it takes many hours for even half of a normal sized room. It is also rather annoying how often you have to dump out the dirty water and add fresh, it really wears your back out bending over a ton and then walking with the machine for hours. For someone who hadnt had their carpet cleaned in years, it took me over 4 hours just to do a 6x6 foot section of my bedroom and I was still pulling up dirty water - be sure to set aside 8 or so hours if your situation is similar to mine and youre attempting a reasonable sized section at once. I will acknowledge that, for the price of this one vs the many others out there, it does its job if youre willing to put in the time and effort. Additional Tips: + Wear Earbuds/Headphones, the carpet cleaner is loud like a normal vacuum, so just leaving a TV on or something isnt good enough. + Wear a Mask if Chemical Smells bother you. Though the Bissell Pet Pro with Febreze smells better than just the Pet Stain and Odor one, both are really strong and gave me massive headaches. + Keep a window open. Even if the Chemical Smell doesnt bother you it really helps to have fresh air during the cleaning and after.

> 24 hourThis little machine is amazing! I have 5 cats 2 small dogs. I didn’t clean this carpet since I bought it 1 yr ago. It pulled all this dirt out of carpet. AMAZING! Great purchase for myself.

> 24 hourFeels quality for the price and it worked extremely well. People have said it’s a pain to refill the small water jug but in my 700 sq ft apartment I believe I refilled it about 4 times- which isn’t bad. Also the dirty water jug holds multiple bottles of liquid so you don’t have to dump that one each time. Time will tell if it lasts - but I’m feeling good about it. I just make sure to clean it after every use.

> 24 hourI was skeptical about a small carpet cleaner such as this. Totally changed my tune once I used it. I live in an apartment but this was perfect. I had to do small areas, let dry, move furniture and repeat. This sucks a ton of water back out, so drying time was minimal. I completed my entire two bedroom apartment in one day. Yes, you have to refill the cleaning solution/water thank several times, as well as dump the waste tank. But that worked fine for me. The disgusting gunk this got out of my carpet was horrifying and amazing. Carpet looks like new again!
