valerie, leeds

+ This product has outstanding cleaning power. You can see the machine pulling the dirt from the carpet. It is powerful and very easy to operate. the water tank empties easily, just a few drips here and there. carpets that are classed as hard wearing with uneven surfaces do not clean as well as the smoother piles. The scrubbing brushes at the front of the machine work the solution deep into the carpet which make a huge difference when cleaning very soiled areas. The machine allows you to work at speed, a whole house can be done in one evening.

- The stair scrubbing attachments are not very effective which was a little disappointing. Drips when changing the water are a little niggle. Machine is heavy but to be expected when full of water and ready to clean...Not suitable for the infirm.

+ Easy to use and cleans the carpets well. A stain on my carpet that I could not shift with an old machine or repeatedly manually scrubbing has vanished in just one small trial

- Very noisy (hurts my toddlers ears). Is currently back at VAX due to a query on the comsumption of Cleaning fluid. That is, that the bottle instructions indicate that the fluid concentration when mixed manually should be 1x3 clean water tanks but my machine used it in just 1 using the automatic mixing system.

John, St Andrews

+ Very effective, easy to use, gets carpets cleaned quickly

- could be quieter. Would be usefull to adjust the amount of detergent it draws from its own reservoir. Still quite expensive.

+ Easy to use & works really well! I am sure it will pay for itself over time - especially as we have two young dogs ;-)

- The accessories holder which is attached to the rear of the product does not hold the tools very well... nor does it clip the the back of the machine very well. Maybe a design afterthought?!? (I just remove the entire holder before I use the machine - takes 2 seconds)

+ Easy to use and leaves carpet much dryer than other carpet cleaners I have tried before.

- The automatic soap function does not seem to work properly; half emptied in one go and when I left some water in for a while and went back to use the remaining water for a different room it had realeased even more soap into the water.

- Tool caddy a bit fiddly,but can be removed with ease.Recovery tank drips a bit so keep the carpet washer close to the drain when emptying!

Eugene, Dundalk , “Frequent user”

+ I like the simplicity of this washer. Very easy and, I would say pleasurable to use for domestic tasks. Easy to fill and empty it! Large water and waste tanks save my time and legs. Carpets dried quite quickly!

- The only downsides to the cleaner are that it is quite loud and a spray nozzle in a hand tool sprays to wide.

Heather, Tunbridge Wells , “Household with 2 puppies”

+ Cleans and restores the carpet to a good state. Removes masses of dirt and carpets look really good after they have been treated.

- It's incredibly heavy and bulky to store and manouevre. The tanks soon run out of water and carpet shampoo. Barely does a complete room in one go.

+ It does clean deep down and doesn't leave your carpet soaking wet. It's easy to pack up and store away after use.

- I find it difficult to position the water tank correctly after I've filled it. The machine does use a lot of solution.

Scott, Dundee

+ Does exactly what it says on the tin!! Couldn't believe the dirt it removed from our hard floors, 1 day after they were mopped supposedly clean!! Made a fantastic job of cleaning our carpets, they looked nearly new once dried. Drying time was also very good.

- It's very noisy!! Ear plugs are recommended by me to protect your ears... The hard floor cleaning fluid is quite expensive.
