Is this only for spills on carpets? or is it possible to clean dusts and hairs on carpet?

It will pick up hairs and dust from carpet while you are shampooing it. It is best to vacuum the carpet first. I don't see how you can use this as a dry vac.

Sorry for the lag. I used it for walk trail on white carpet in two rooms. Also for odor and small dog hairs.

It cleans dust and hairs and it got sand out of my carpet! It was the best purchase I made in 2013. Its a little larger than a vacuum cleaner but its your standard shampooer for sure! You won't be disappointed.

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.

It will not pick up hair, but will pick up the dust once the fluid from the cleaner mixes with it. It works pretty good for small spot cleaning. I'm happy with mine.

I have only used it on carpets but you can email the company and they can provide additional info if you need it. They have great customer service.

It works great on hardwood floors, but doesn't have the power for carpet, I am still trying to find a vac that picks up pet hair and dirt from carpet that doesn't weigh a ton!! Have a bad back, if you find one please let me know!!

Yes it is specifically made for carpet. On bare floor it does not has much advantage. I do not use it on rugs because it will destroy it. For rugs and floor I use small Hoover canister vacuum. iRobot is also good for laminate.

It works best on hardwood and tile floors. It would not do deep cleaning on carpets, just the surface.

This vacuum does not have bristles that spin to grab things like hair out of carpet surfaces. It is better used for picking up cat litter, dirt and sand off of tile and linoleum surfaces.

Yes, it picks up spills on ceramic tile etc. But I imagine that most people will want to use this specifically to work carpet cleaner into rugs and broadloom and then suck the dirty remaining liquid out.

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

I guess they say you can use it on carpets but not to clean them! Its more like a disinfectant or aomething to take away the smell! I never did though.

Works very well on my carpet. You use it like you would use a rake. My carpet has a thick pile and doesn't get dirty but the pile can get pressed down from walking on it. Using the rake means less vacuuming for me. It would work well to pick up pet hair but I have no pets.

It is good for picking up dust on hardwood. If you have a spill of dry goods or otherwise, the suction is not sufficient to get the job done. It is good for dusting and light cleaning.

No, this can't clean carpets - only steams hardwood and stone floors, and not very well at that! I would encourage you to look at Bissell, Dyson, Shark or Hoover. I would avoid Oreck for anything but vacuum only products.

Our dustbuster does a very good job picking up dirt and pet hair off our hard wood floors. As far as our couches and rugs go, it lacks the power needed for the pet hair .removal

This Bissell is for floors, hardwood or tile. It's not made for rugs or carpets.

The only time I would use this machine on hardwood floors is if you were picking up a large spill. It can be used as a shop vac to pick up small or large spills.

Best for wood floors. Brush head is not motorized so its not good for carpet.. I have jute rugs, good for that.

I like to think of it as a mess cleaner -- litter, hair, a spilled plant... but it is great for fur and dust. The filter on the inside catches hair very well and it's easy to detach the hand held vacuum to sweep up fur off furniture. I'm not sure about the warranty, but this will do the job for messes and pet hair. It really isn't meant to replace an actual vacuum cleaner, but it's pretty darn close in my house!
