Did it get your carpets clean from pet traffic and odors? I have 4 large breed dogs as well as us &amp; we are very careful to remove shoes and wipe paws.

We have two elderly dogs and at different points, we had one with a poop accident and the other track it on tile, carpet, and wood floors and I used the Sonic Duo to clean all three areas relatively easily. One dog also threw up a lot one night and the stains were so bad I feared we'd have to get new carpet, but the Sonic Duo got took care of that mess too. One of the stains we had to go over again the next day, but now you can't even see where it happened. For cleaning the carpet with deep staining, we used the carpet pad with the long nap, followed by the carpet pad with the short nap. I don't know if that's how we were supposed to use the pads, but it worked great. (I know it sounds like we have poorly trained dogs, but they are good dogs. They are just elderly and struggled through an unseasonably cold winter.)

It does a good job getting the mud out from my dogs paws and pads, but I keep my dogs well groomed and nails trimmed well. We also wash them off before the dirt gets hard and sticks. So I think that probably helps a bit! It gets the dirt off really well for us, but I will say, our dogs do not like having their paws dipped in this. We have to really make them do it against their will.

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!

Positiveity! It is the best carpet sweeper I have ever had. I use it everyday. We do not wear outdoor shoes in our house so I use it constantly. It is the best. I pick up even a small little piece of lint and we also have a cat so I use it all day long. I also use on our front porch rug that gets all kinds of stuff on it even small pea gravel. I am a very clean person and I can not stand anything on my floors. I even use it on the kitchen floor. You will not be sorry. My first one lasted about 10 years. It also picks up cat liter in the house off of a thick rug. I could not be without it.

Just run the regular sweeper. No pretreatment is required. Our house we bought was a model home. The carpets didn't look dirty. But we have six little dogs and when we first moved in the peed ALOT. This took care of all stains and I couldn't believe the dirt that was on the floor. And it smelled wonderful.

Might try dog-order-removing carpet cleaner. O you might check with your vet. I would think they have experience getting those orders got of things.

Do you like your carpets and floors really clean? I have not been happy with the suction on the Eureka RapidClean at all. Even when using the handheld alone, the stuff sucked up would fall back out.

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.

From previous research, owning another brand and then use of this one, I definitely give this one a thumbs up. It is not something that lifts out stains which you should know by the description of how it works but it does a good job for that which is stated. Excellent on ceramic floors, much easier than a mop. Since you have a small dog I would like to mention that it is also great on carpets. I add a drop of pure essential oil specific to my purpose, sometime fragrance, sometimes to disinfect. It steams the carpet but does not leave it wet. Great for fending off any potential mold, fleas, germs, etc. Hope this helps answer your question.

Leave it alone....this product uses enzymes that work afterward, leaving a smell for a day or two if its too badly saturated with urine, but the smell WILL go away after it finishes eating at the "mess" (literally). I have used Nature's Miracle on an apartment I was cleaning that had badly soaked carpets, and the day after, you could barely walk into the house, because the odor of the urine and an "alcohol smell" that is a byproduct of the enzymes doing their work, but after the second day, ALL of the smell was gone, and the carpets looked like new. This stuff works, but people need to know, this is ENZYME based, not chemical or soap based, so it takes TIME to do its job, but it WILL do it, and do it well. Think of enzymes as little critters that live off of urine, blood, and feces, and will eat and eat until they have nothing else to eat. After a couple of days, you can clean the carpets again to get rid of any remaining traces that may be left, but if you don't give this stuff time to do what it does, you are just wasting your money (like the guy that called in the "pros" afterward...all they did was soak up the enzymes that were already doing their job, then probably putting more on there along with some sort of chemical deodorizer that seals the urine into the carpet and padding so you couldn't smell it, which in return, will not allow enzymes or anything else from that point on to remove what urine they sealed in). So...use this stuff, then, LET IT SIT AND DO ITS JOB, even if its for a couple of days, it will work, DO NOT RINSE, after a few days, re-clean the carpet if you like, but don't do it BEFORE ITS DONE WORKING!! The added smell means its doing its job, not that it didn't.

Yes! I love this thing! I can't believe I was ever just using rags on my dogs' paws! Took some getting use to for my older dog but now it's super easy to use! Good luck!

It's fantastic at removing pet hair!! The first time I used it I had to empty the canister a few times because of all the dog hair it picked up and I had been vacuuming on a regular basis!! It's fantastic!!

I found that it tended to remove carpet (lint) every time I used it no matter how gentle I was. It seemed to create static, which made any dog hair collected, which wasn't much (and one of my dog really sheds), want to fly away from the tool.

I also, just used it in my house & on 3 dogs & 1 cat. The powder does go a long way though. I did get a duster to spread it easier as well. Maybe start spreading it from the doorway out that way the dogs will pick up the powder on their way in/out of the house too.

Yes it should! You must however clean area immediately which is hard sometimes! Absorb all urine and clean as usual spray and let sit then wipe off as directed. Do this twice if you have to! Definitely works better on tile however my dog marked her territory on my daughters carpet after my parents had left( they were staying in their room) I caught it right away before it absorbed all the way through carpet and cleaned and sanitized and sprayed the enzyme cleaner. No smell at all and I mean it!! I would rip it up if my daughters room smelled like dog pee!! Again catch right away clean sanitize and then use enzyme cleaner. Should work wonders Yes it should!

It works fairly well on cat urine odor which is usually much stronger than dog urine. I still notice some cat urine odor from my carpet, but others don't appear to have as senitive a nose as I do and they can't smell it. It's the best product I've found to date.

We have 2 cats and a dog. When I spray it on the carpets (just to freshen them up) and let it dry, then vacum, all the smells are gone. Use as directed to treat any spots.
