There is not a good suction to the machine to really steam clean anything. I have had to reclean my couch with another cleaner to make the cushin look clean.

Pulls up small stains like a champ. Heats water hot enough you don’t really even need cleaning spray. Simple controls, fool proof operation. Self cleaning cap clips into place to clean the combo output/intake hose, pretty smart feature! Once it warms up a bit outside I plan to use it to clean my cars upholstery! Excellent little cleaner!

Initially, very impressed with how fast it heats up the water. I do auto detailing and cant wait to use this machine on a soiled interior. I had another extractor that took 15mins to heat up and wasnt as hot as the water coming from this machine. I hope it continues to perform. will update...

Water is not able to heat up

Likes: heats water quickly, easy to clean hose after use through a simple cleaning procedure, easy to fill water cylinder, light weight, easy to assemble and to prep for storage Dislikes: suction is not as strong as I hoped it would be. You can spray hot water on the stain, but after using suction attachment several times there is very little returns (just an ounce or so). Most water stays in carpet or upholstery and takes in excess of 24 hours to dry. This tells me the stain is diluted with water and soaks deeper into the carpet or upholstery, instead of being removed through suction.

This little machine is great for spot cleaning carpets. I dont want to pull out my full size carpet cleaner all the time so this is useful to use in between full carpet washes. Use warm water in it and it will heat up the water much faster. Yes the suction isnt as good as commercial machines, but for the size of this machine, its really not bad. I used this on my stairs as well and it did a decent job. It was easier than lugging my big machine on each step. If you have pets that make messes, this would be handy for you.

I really like the size of this carpet cleaner as it’s the perfect size to do quick spots, furniture and the car but it’s not ideal for doing large carpets. It comes with 3 brush heads (2 sizes of brush and a clear brush) as well as a self cleaning head that makes cleaning the tubing easy. It has two water tanks, one for clean water with solution and the other for dirty water, both of which can be opened and are relatively easy to clean. It has a nice long power cord as well as decent tube length making this unit easy to use almost anywhere. It does not come with any sample cleaners which was a disappointment but I just use my regular carpet cleaner and it does a good job. I find the heated water (both warm and hot) does a better job than room temp and both the standard and turbo suction work well but I tend to stick to turbo. Overall this does a good job on small cleaning projects and is easy to use, though I do recommend reading the instructions first. It’s compact, easy to store and to clean. It’s currently priced at $200, which is more than name brand comparable units, but worth looking at if on sale.

This is much more industrial than what I needed, but it works and I like it. Cleans messes really well!

This is definitely more of a spot cleaner than carpet cleaner but is quite effective and works for cleaning up the mess left from those 3am hairballs my cats like to leave for me to step on. It does however leave the carpet quite damp and does not come with any cleaning solution to try with it, so order some when you buy! You want the button to face down and you spray the amount of water you want rather than it being constant water and it has continuous suction to suck the dirty water into the separate tank. I did find I needed to use hot/turbo settings to get the carpet dry enough after a couple of passes. It has a good set of brush/attachments and unlike my old one, the hose is removable so it can be replaced without buying a whole new unit. The power cord and hose are a good length and between the two, I can reach pretty much anywhere in my apartment and the hot water option makes this better than my old one.

After one use I’m sold on this puppy. Time will tell if it holds up but it seems well built. I tackled a chair in the living room and three stubborn stains. With a good cleaning product everything came out good as new. Suction power is pretty good for its size. Better than most other major brands in the same range. It does take some time to heat up water so start with warm water in the tank to help it out. But great machine and would recommend
