Jenny, Bristol , “Retired. Lots of time”

+ It does what it says. Leaves carpet dryer than I expected. You can see the dirt extracted from the carpet ! Very pleased with initial results.

- Left some shampoo in container after cleaning & storing .Somehow shampoo got into empty clean water container. Will empty shampoo container next time before storing.

Anonymous verified purchaser , “Have 2 dogs”

+ Quite easy to use. Great at cleaning as long as they are relatively recent marks. Doesnt leave the carpet too wet. Surprisingly to too heavy to move around. Makes the carpet look fresh and noticably cleaner and not so flat and trodden on.

- Quite bulky, not the best at manouverability

joebhoy, Glasgow , “I had dirty carpets”

+ Cleans the carpets effectively, the drying time after cleaning is not too bad the suction from the machine is very good.

- None as yet; Although the weight when the machine is full might be an issue with some people.

John, N Ireland , “Male, 40 ”

+ Works a treat - carpets like new - easy to use - delighted so far - just amke sure your room is clear from furnitre and off you go !

- Uses quite a bit of expensive detergent but this is probably the same for other types of cleaner so by comparison is it much less expensive than hiring a company to clean your carpets
