Carpet saver... Read carefully for realistic review!!
This thing is prett darn good for not being industrial. When people complain they seem to forget that this unit is NOT expensive. If it last for a few good cleanings for accidents it pays for itself. To prolong its life take care of it! Clean it after each use. Also make sure you squeezed the trigger without the clean water tank on AFTER each use then run it with the brushes engaged for some time to dry the brush drive mechanism. Be sure to clean the tank filter and brushes after each use. This is not ideal but a small annoyance for a machine that does what it is suppose to. Also do not carry it by the handle. Use the carry handle that is marked as such. It really bothers me when people write a bad review for their own stupidity or laziness when they buy something inexpensive and expect it to perform like an industrial rental and last like one as well.
See my photos of how it saved our light carpet when our 18 month old puked up his green smoothie. I had to use a little elbow grease with the hand scrubber attachment but in the end it did a hell of a job with the addition of some heavy duty 409 carpet spot cleaner. Hope this review helps and doesn't set ridiculous expectations for an affordable home carpet cleaner. Cheers!
