Has anyone found a dry cleaner to work on braided rugs? I appreciate any advice.

This product works beautifully on my rugs. They are not braided but they are thick rugs. I would not use any other product but this one.

Braided rugs are a big challenges for ANY cleaning. Mine are not braided, but my guess would be yes.

I always start with the dry powder. If it leaves any residue, place a white towel under the stain and spray the liquid Resovle for pet stains liberally, then step on clean paper towels til the area is nearly dry. I use a fan at this point. It may be overkill, but you don't want the pet returning to his new potty spot.

Never used it on a braided rug but can't see why it wouldn't work just as good on one as it does on carpet..

honestly, I wouldn't try it. it does work great on my rugs and upholstery but they can also be cleaned with a water based solution.However, it is a very good question and I will see if I have anything like that and can give it a try in a non conspicuous spot and let you know what I find out

I use Bona laminate floor cleaner. It works beautifully. It is especially formulated for ceramic and laminate.

We had the down comforter dry cleaned because the last time I washed a down comforter it was ruined. Dry cleaning is worth the $$ as it lasts longer.

Miele and Dyson work well on orinetal rugs. The problem with vacuum cleaners on oriental rugs is they remove the soil on the surface of rugs, but they leave behind the soil in the fibers and pests living in the fibers. The pests are the real problem because they eat the fibers, and eventually you'll pay someone to replace the damages fibers with new fibers. How you clean your oriental rugs depends on your home and you homecare. I know people who have oriental rug retailers clean their oriental rugs yearly, but I clean mine maybe once every 10 yeaers or so. I own a middle grade Miele vacuum cleaner. The bottom grade of Miele vacuum cleaners work like American vacuum cleaners. Too many people told me to avoid the top grade of Miele vacuum cleaners. The only problem I have with my Miele vacuum cleaner is my dogs' hair wraps around the cleaner brush, and I remove their hair after I clean most rooms. I see Dyson vacuum cleaners in Home Depot. Miele uses their own retail stores. I MUCH prefer to buy from Amazon.com, but you do need to worry about who will repair any malfunctioning or broken parts in your Dyson or Miele vacuum cleaners. Also, Miele vacuum cleaners work on 120 V eletricity, and they won't work in Europe or Asia where they use 240 V electricity.

In my opinion... the Rug Doctor. I previously owned a Bissel upright unit...the trigger (which when pulled releases the soap onto the carpet) never worked properly. Bissel units are entirely plastic. I didn't care for it because it didn't perform. This small hand held Rug Doctor performs very well...BUT again it is a spot cleaner. Hope this helps

I have never seen anyone dry clean bedding. If your front loading washer is large enough, just use that.

I takes about a day for a rug to dry. I only used the Steam Vac on a synthetic 5 foot by 8 foot rug, not wall to wall carpeting which I think would take longer to dry. I do not like the so-called "steam" vac as it did not clean my rug well. There is no steam, you just use hot water in the tank. S. Modin

I've used it on my wool rugs with good results. I haven't used it yet On my shag rug as it's new, but plan to in the future.

Hoover rug shampoo will work. I think any liquid cleaner will work depending on what you are cleaning. It is a fairly simple scrubber. I just would not use a powder because they don't desolve completely and will plug up the hoses. I hope this helps.

I have hardwood throughout my home and it does a beautiful job. I believe when I was researching products there is a Bono tile cleaner which I imagine would do an equally excellent job.

I also have tile & wood floors with area rugs. Fringe has to be combed and it depends on how thick the area rug is. The roomba works for me but I don't have much traffic or pets that shed.

If this is a question that is asking for rug braiding supplies, does that mean that you are inquiring about this particular starter kit? If so, the directions are very good to excellent about creating braided rugs, mats, placemats, etc. The little metal cone that folds thin fabric is good for that, but for thicker fabric, it isn't sufficient. That part is done best by hand folding and pressing with a hot steam iron. The needle for lacing is good if you have no other large curved needle for upholstery work or if that style. Overall, I think that this kit is worth the money in that it has excellent illustrations in the diagrams and photos in the book, answers many questions you would think of while trying to do this craft. I am glad I purchased mine and intend to make many more items using this kit. Hope this helps answer your question.

One of the reviews posted said they put a comforter in the dryer with 2 sheets and didn't use the bag. I have a large drapery sheer from our sliding glass doors to clean and will try it without the bag, as it's too small. Keep in mind: Dryel should not be used on: Leather, Velvet, Suede, Fur, Silk or Rayon.

I have a new washing machine that spins like crazy. So my rugs were just damp. They dried in 24 hours in Basement. Maybe a 2nd spin/evacuate water sequence could help you?

Hi,I had the exact same problem on the same kind of rug. This product helped but it didn't remove it all.
