Yes it does clean well. It's a great vacuum .. Takes a few times to get use to moving it on the carpet since it's not a standard vacuum. But don't let that keep you from buying it. So pleased with this purchase

I've only tried it on hardwood floors and small rugs. I'm pleased with the suction on both. It does clean well.

It's okay on carpet, better on rugs (like oriental or cowhide or throw rugs.) You have to work it on the carpet- there is no spinning brush to knock dirt loose, like on some models and uprights. This is good for me, because long hair can bind those spinning brushes. Many people say it's easier to pull the attachment toward you. I have an upright which is easier for the larger carpeted areas, but I did a spot cleaning with this Bissell and it seemed to work fine. I have mostly hardwood and tile floors, and this works way better for them than an upright. It has very strong suction, which can be adjusted down for flimsier fabrics and upholstery. If you have primarily wall to wall carpeting, I don't think I would recommend this vacuum cleaner to you. It would be too much work to clean with it.

Although the canister vacuum doesn't have a beater bar it does have a floor brush which picks up very well. It adjusts for bar floors and carpet and when you set the canister dial to maximum suction you get fantastic results.

We use on vinyl, wood and tile floors, which is works great. It works excellent on them.

have only used it on low pile carpeting, and it does a very good job on it, as well as floors.

You can clean carpets with it yes, but I personally haven't done that yet. It works wonderfully on my kitchen floor I can tell you that. I also cleaned 2 old and extremely dirty recliners with it however. It did an amazing job on them. They look nearly brand new now.

I have used the carpet cleaner twice on normal carpet and when I am suctioning I lift up slightly on the handle to create more suction. I feel it is a very impressive machine for its size and the carpet dries quickly.

The vacuum is powerful and it sucks up dirt easily. The only thing you need to be aware of is there is no rotating brush to dig up the dirt in the carpet like other upright vacuum cleaner. It works great on hard wood floors.

Yes, it is very easy to use on high pile carpets. It seems to pull itself forward and I just have to pull it back. Works like a dream.

I moves fast on carpets. It depends on how much you have to vacuum. I use mine heavily in commercial cleaning. Your attachment head will wear over time. You can buy replacements here really cheap. You will get shoulder fatigue, but it is less than a standard vacuum. I would also suggest an oreck since it is light weight.

It is great on carpet. I have 3 cats and I am surprised each time how much dirt and hair come up. Even when the carpet looks clean to begin with.I am very happy with the Hoover Windtunnel especially since it is light weight.

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.

I'm not impressed by it on carpets at all, just spent an hour with it and stain/spot lifter on a 2 square foot area by my back door trying to get rid of the "heavy traffic" look. Despite carpets being professionally cleaned less than a year ago and living alone it barely made a dent in it. I may try a Haan if I purchase one of these ever again, they seem to do better all around.

It is wonderful on carpet, it picks up absolutely everything and there won't be a dog hair left. I swear by this vacuum. You won't regret it.

I bought one couple of months ago. Works great for me (medium thickness carpet). Especially due to the "carpet powerhead" brush which is an electrical one. So it spins thus brushing the carpet. I would recommend it.

I have used it on the carpet, but really only as a sweeper. It works well in that regard. I have pets, so just adding steam without extracting anything is asking to make my house smell like a wet dog :)

Yes, it works fine on carpet. The only problem was that ours stopped working at all in less than a year, which was a bummer because it was a cute toy.

Yes, I've been happy with it and does a good job for us (2 adults and 2 dogs) on our carpets.

Pretty darn well. I used it in my apartment that is almost entirely carpeted and it worked well.

It does a pretty good job. My hardwood is in the kitchen, so there's a lot of dirtiness. I like using the vacuum to pick up all stuff that gets in the corners of my hardwood floors, and then do a swiffer/mop on top if it to truly clean.
