The cleaner is easy to assemble and practical to use. Like most similar devices, it is quite noisy, but it gets the job done. To get best results move forward slowly to release the water and cleaning solution and drawback slowly to dry the carpets. Our carpets are relatively thick and were completely dry within six hours. The hose and stair tool are very easy to use and quite effective. The lid on the dirty water tank is a little difficult to fit so make sure the clips are properly in place or the lid is likely to break. The cleaning solution is automatically mixed and I feared the machine would use rather a lot although in reality it is better than I expected.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing the dirt it removes

Brought for my partner who is a clean freak at the best of times and had been hounding me about washing our carpets and wanted to hire a local guy who was charging £100 per room which sounded insane.We went for this machine and its fantastic. Build quality is very high as expected with such a large well known brand. It is very easy to set up and before you know it you are washing and cleaning your carpets. Not sure if it is just me but I found it very therapeutic and really enjoyed cleaning. It is really quite amazing at the colour of the water that is removed from the carpet, its black almost and we didn't think they were that bad!The wash/dry function works perfectly and it really does take quite a lot of water out meaning your carpets take a lot less time to fully dry out. Really happy with the results that we have had from this.

This has been my first effort with a carpet cleaning machine such as this one, so I am unable to compare it with other similar types.I am impressed. The machine arrived well packaged and in perfect condition. There is a very good instruction booklet within the box that explained the very minimal assembly required, along with clear instructions for safe use of this device. After only a few minutes I was ready for my first attempts at cleaning the carpets.It is noisy, there is no denying that, much like a rather loud vacuum cleaner. I do not however find it uncomfortably so, but others may appreciate wearing some sort of ear defenders/plugs. The machine will soon go through a tank of warm water while getting a good deal of cleaning done. I like that the machine washes when going forward, and dries when pulled back. The machine can also rinse only (no soap) and be set to dry only.Once I have made at least one pass, I like to rinse, then set the machine to dry only mode where it will suck up a good amount of water, but of course it will not make the carpets absolutely dry. I use a dehumidifier overnight for that, and in the morning all carpets are dry and look totally re-invigorated. I was very impressed how it brings a carpet back to life.There is a small bottle of 'concentrated' cleaner for use on stubborn stains (this goes into the small tank on the handle for pre-treatment) and this works very well, lifting stains with apparent ease. I have not yet used the hose attachment with the smaller cleaning nozzle, but it is nice to have and will be required at some point in the future.This machine is not cheap, but it is well made. It has clear instructions and is easy to operate. Most importantly, it really does clean well.
