how does it clean carpets?

It doesn't. I clean my hard floors with it an use a different vac on my carpet.

Poorly.I didn't have it long enough to try cleaning carpets, but the rug in the living room with 'every day pet hair' was too much for this little machine.

I use it on my oriental and on my berber where I don't really want a rolling carpet brush. It has great suction, but no motorized carpet brush. I'm still totally in love with this many months after my purchase.

It has a knob that controls the air and if closed it won't work. It is much to lightweight to do a good job on carpets. I had to go out and buy a kenmore for serious cleaning. It's a toy. A cute light weight glorified electric broom that easily clogs and loses suction.

Same with ours, but the cleaning solution is highly concentrated and soap/water mix in the soap reservoir does go down. It's enough soap to clean our carpets, but not leave a lot of extra soap/residue to attract dirt faster, so I like that. Other carpet cleaners dump soap on the carpet and then attracts dirt and have to clean more often. I clean lightly, then go over several times with soap off to ensure the least amount of soap residue.

No, you can't "clean" carpets, as it's got no way to extract dirty water. However, with the glide attachment included, you can steam "refresh" carpets, and supposedly kill dust mites, etc. The unit glides above the carpet and injects the steam into the fibers, but you don't use the microfiber pad, so you're not picking anything up. Hope that helps!

We love the Neato - It does a great job on carpet, although it does not have bristles, and an acceptable job on tile floors also. The carpet looks much better being swept with the Neato, and I would heartily recommend it.

Yeah it cleans all floors, but it has a stronger suction than regular vacuums to get all the grime and animal hair

Suction is awesome but you have to clean the filter regularly. When the suction isn't very good that's when you will need to clean the filter. It works great on area rugs!

Picks it up decently well - Turn it to the bare floor setting so that the brush isn't running, and it'll pick up most of it. I usually go over the bathroom with a broom and mop as well afterwards though, I like things sparkling clean! In the carpet it picks all the litter up.

It should be known that this unit does not really "clean" the carpet. But this unit does use hot steam to sanitize and freshen the carpet. You use the large rectangular attachment with both of the extension arms. It's not going to remove stains this unit does not extract any dirt or water. But I have found when I use it for the carpet it does give the room a sense of freshness.

We have hard floors with area carpets. The vacuum seems to be able to work on all the surfaces. The suction head is the main link in the process.

It works fine, but to do the job properly, we use a Swiffer. The vacuum will clean up just fine, but to remove dirt, etc., the Swiffer is designed to do that better.

I have not used it on rugs but it does not suction up anything, I think you are looking for the bissell spotbot.

Not really great for carpets. Probably need something larger. Can spot clean with it. Mostly it's great for hard floors.

It works good on wood floors; however, you need to remember that it's not a wet vacuum, it'll just remove dirt and everything, but if you prefer your wooden floors sparkling clean, they'll still need to be cleaned with a mop or whatever you prefer; I mostly use the hose on wooden floors to pick up debris in the kitchen and corridor - it's very powerful and removes everything. As for the carpet, it has low pile and deep pile mode, you just need to turn the knob on the upper part of the body. Hope that helps!

The pet model cleans down the deepest. My carpets looked new with the pet model. I tried the other model's and they made my carpet look good, but after a few days the stains came back

I vaccuum it first then I use this. It's a steam cleaner, so it cleans the fibers and makes the carpet look and smell better. For dusts and hairs, use a regular vaccuum.

I have 2 large dogs so I have a lot of dog hair in my carpets. The Dyson does a good job of vacuuming the dog hairs. It also does a good job of removing dog fur from furniture fabric.
