+ Easy to use. Excellent value for money.

- It doesnt go right up to the skirting. It would be even better if it had tools for the stairs.

Michael, Sheffield , “Am above average DIYer”

Score 8.0/10

+ Easy to use. Good value

- Always be sure the bottom tank is picking up the used water. If the two parts of the machine are not precisely assembled, water does not pick up and the carpet becomes saturated.
Could have been better designed to overcome this.

Score 7.0/10

+ Easy assembly. Does clean well and sucks up most of the moisture - carpet almost dry after cleaning. Brought up the pile of the carpet nicely.

- Didn't get stains out which was very disappointing. Did need refilling/emptying 3 times in a relatively small lounge/dining area.

Score 9.0/10

+ Very easy to put together, I had it assembled in no time. It is also very lightweight and easy to move around. Heavy cleaners can be really offputting, but I found this very straightforward and easy to use.
