Does NOT work well on carpet. Does clean hard surfaces both wet and dry very well. I also bought a small canister bag less vac with the hose to vac area rugs, baseboards. closets, bathroom and furniture--hard to reach places with upright. Hope that helps. Peace

Honestly this machine is strictly for floors and I seriously wouldn't purchase one. We donated ours!

Hey there,I would agree. It works best on hardwood floors and short carpet.Thanks!

It works ok on our short pile (maybe 3/8") carpet. On a tight weave rug it should be fine. It works best on hard floors.

Yes, we have mid-grade residential carpet, so not short like berber and not super plush and it works wonderful on this type of carpet.

I am very pleased with the two mats I purchased. If the carpet is very short, I think it could work. It gives you a soft feel when you walk on it. If the carpet was to high, it might not give you the same feeling. I do believe it would work on Berber carpet.

I think it is best suited for tile or hardwood floors but looks like it would work OK on a short nap carpet.

The mat is pretty sturdy. I would assume it will work on pretty much any surface. I'm using it on a thick pile carpet.

I don't have long carpet; however, it literrally jiggles the carpet as you are vacuuming, so my answer is that I really think it would work well.

I believe it would work fine. It is an excellent product and I don't see any problems with using it on carpet.

Yes, we use it on carpet and it works perfectly. There are foot extensions that come with it specifically designed to allow it to work on carpet.

Hi Cynthia: If your carpet is thin this would probably work okay. It is flexible (it comes either rolled up or folded over) and is very good on hard floors. It would not be good on plush carpet

Yes. I have only used it standing on carpet. This was an excellent purchase for me. I hope you will be able to enjoy it too.

It is made for vinyl and leather so no, I would not use it on a carpet. It would just make it all hard and crunchy.

I think it would be fine. I love mine but only use it on carpet but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Works best on hard surfaces. It will work ok on a short pile carpet....thick or shag...not so much

Not very well. It will work so so on low pile carpets but won't go at all on thicker stuff.

I have used it on a low pile carpet and it does work well, however, it will bog down on other thicker carpets and the beater bar will not work. Great on hardwood floors. Hope this helps.
