Why wash your carpets?
Using even the most powerful vacuum cleaner isn’t enough to remove hidden dirt and debris that lives deep within your carpets and rugs to leave them looking and smelling clean.
Carpets also provide a warm home for dust mites and allergens to live and multiply. They can be found in your carpets and are the main triggers of allergies such as asthma and hay fever, so in order to keep your home hygienic and clean, it’s important to regularly wash your carpets.

I got this for £62.00. Couldn’t believe it. I was expecting a scaled down and perhaps compromised version of a carpet cleaner. Just enough to soak up spills and clean the carpet. It’s not a new carpet but the same throughout the house. Cream/beige colour. It was fitted by the previous occupier. It is the type with square motifs.As someone who uses paint in creative projects. I had spilled and had a few accidents where I sit and paint or use polyurethane to bind pieces together.I had used bleach to try and get the colours out of the carpet and then soaked it up with a clean towel. Of course – this is never going to remove the deeper levels of paint. I should state that I often use acrylic paint – which is permanent and varnish too. I’m not a house obsessed person but I am a clean one. So I always had in mind – buying a carpet cleaner. Never got round to it.Taking this thing out of the box. It’s clear this is NOT a LITE version of a product. This is a fully fledged and very grown up carpet cleaner. It has two power brush bars that are very powerful and get deep into the carpet. It is a heavy unity – but at 800 W rated motor for suction – this is a superb value cleaner.I couldn’t believe how easy it was to clean the carpets. And even though it doesn’t have a handheld cleaning function. It doesn’t matter – because the wider cleaning brushes cut down the amount of time and effort.Just press than handle button and the solution comes out evenly and covers the dirty carpet uniformly. Release the button and the suction is by default. And boy – it removes huge amount of dirt. I couldn’t believe how much dirt. And it removed a great deal of the liquid. Only about one third of the solution remained in the carpet. I have a small two bedroom bungalow and my house now feels cleaner and fresher. And changing the dirty water tank 5 times !! proved to me – just how dirty the carpet was.With the heating on – the carpets dried in about 50 minutes. And I walked on them immediately. No problems.What about those varnish and paint stains? That’s what surprised me the most. i didn’t expect much – but it brought up the very sad and stained part of carpet beneath where I usually sit: to its original shade. I could see the dissolved paint and dirt in the waste water tank.Not only that. But I copied a trick I had seen on youtube. Poured very hot water over a couple of the stains and waited a couple of minutes and the Vax sucked up the excess and a lot more of the dirt. But DO NOT use hot or boiling water with your vax – it will ruin it. Use ONLY once the heat has dissipated enough. Use only warm water in the solution chamber. You can effectively “pre-treat” your carpets with a spray bottle and solution. Before bringing out the Vax. (another tip).That was my first run. No fuss. No mess. No disapointment. This is a superb product.The tanks themselves are designed for instant removal. And they are brilliantly designed for instant emptying or filling.How long you hold that release trigger for solution – depends on how many times you will need to refill it. But it takes literally – one minute to do so.I should state that the vax switches to no suction automatically – when it detects the waste water tank is full enough. Brilliant ! It means you don’t need to watch it or have spills of dirty water. (and believe me – your carpet is dirty if it has never been washed).I was also surprised by how much physical debris and fine sand was in the dirty water container.One tip: instead of vacuuming your whole house before using the vax (as must be done); use a bissell carpet sweeper (£9.99) – to go over your carpets. These little beauties are incredible and light and easy. They also work ! One look at the dust chambers will tell you how underrated these little sweepers are. (not just for grannies).So. In conclusion.The Vax is a serious piece of kit. Incredible value for money at the price I paid and even if it is a little more expensive – it’s design and power. And effectiveness will be clear to you.I just activated my 2 year guarantee online. (needed the serial number on the chassis of the machine). Simples.Quick. Effective. Powerful. Robust. Quality. And ease of use.”don’t work harder – just smarter”. 🙂

So pleased with this machine, I started small, on a rug in the living room, it’s been down over 20 years and never been cleaned, vacumed daily but never cleaned. It came up amazingly well, the colours are bright again and it’s like new, used the small bottle of cleaner that came with the machine so now looking for a larger bottle to tackle the full sized carpet in my dining area, that has had a lot of spills and foot traffic, hoping that will come up as good as the rug. The machine is very noisy and it took 4 fill and emptys to finish the rug as the jugs only hold 2 litres of water but I suppose any bigger would make it a bit heavy, on the whole I love this machine and it’s worth every penny

This carpet cleaner is ideal for me, it is light and does the job, it is easy to use and the solution that came with it is excellent it removed the dirt with ease and the suction left my carpets almost dry, I would recommend

Lot better than the old canister design , and so much easier to use, ideal for smaller rooms as buckets don’t hold a lot… Make sure you hoover well first! Will prob block a bit if carpet is grubby, just pulling out any muck and will spring into life again.. You know when it is time to empty as the float will pop and the machine will make a different noise, bought up my Sons Carpet well still needs a few more goes over but looks a lot better it’s even got rid of two big areas I didn’t think it would be able to cope with…

I ordered this and then read the reviews which most were bad and I thought oh on but received on time and it is absolutely amazing honestly I have a 7 yr old carpet with 3 dogs and honestly it is so cool not the best to clean when finished lots of dogs hair trapped and struggled to unclog but overalll cleaning it’s like having a brand new carpet very I’m very impressed indeed

It got the job done. It pulled more dog hair out the carpet than my shark pet vacuum did. Left the carpet’s dry enough to walk on after 20 minutes. Can’t comment on the quality of the shampoo that came with it as I bought Bissel with febreeze to deodorise. The only down side if any is the bottom part having to be unscrewed to be cleaned rather than clipping off, but I guess it makes a better seal and this is why it works so well

I’ve noticed a lot of complaints about cleaning the rollers etc. My advice (if you can). Take it outside & spray a hose into the bottom whilst turning the rollers..much quicker. Be aware to avoid electrical parts ie: foot switch & power cord.

Wonderful!!! Cleaned my carpet more than a professional carpet cleaner did before. I can’t ask for more. It also dries faster than expected. It cleans better if you wet the carpet a bit manually.
