We purchased this carpet cleaner because of the other reviews on Amazon.  I wanted something that was going to tackle my doggie issues as well as the spills left behind by the kids.  This thing is AWESOME!! My husband and I spent Mother's Day cleaning the rugs in the entire house.  We had to run out to Walmart to purchase more cleaning fluid but it was well worth it.  My carpets are oatmeal and they are CLEAN!!  There were spots we had to go over a few times but I think if I had pretreated them, they would've come out.  I am extremely please with this item and it was worth every dime!!

Love this sweeper for cat litter on bare floors!  This will not work on high pile carpet and it does not have suction but it glides on hard floors and picks up everything in it's path!  The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is due to the fact that hair gets stuck in the rollers, I bought this mainly for my bathroom floor since we keep the litter box.

Tired of borrowing my in-law's carpet cleaner, I decided to purchase this.  I'm so proud of myself that I did!  This is user friendly in that it took me about ten minutes to get it out of the box and set up; maybe even less!  Using it the first time, it was a bit odd as the handle reclines exposing the return water tank, leaving what looks like a gap in-between the upper and bottom units; but that's just me being visually a bit picky!  Anyway, comparing it to my in-law's expensive Bissell, I cleaned a carpet that for the most part had been stained for years.  The Bissell could not get the stains out, so my expectations of this were a tad low.  Wow was I wrong!  This is a light-weight powerful machine!  The suction alone deserves the five stars!  And, because I get easily distracted (Looking out the window), I stopped moving it back and forth and just left it running on stubborn stain, it removed it!!!  Seven years that stain had been on the carpet; now it's gone!  Lastly, it's cute as it is not so large and bulky so I'm sure that storing it will be no problem.

This is the 2nd carpet cleaner that I've purchased, and after reading some of the great reviews about the Hoover steam vac I bit the bullet and decided to give it a try.  One requirement that I wanted in a carpet cleaner was for it to have brushes to actually scrub the carpet, not something that just sprayed water down and sucked it back up.  Been there, done that, so this was what I had been looking for.  The cleaner arrived within just a few days of ordering, was well packaged and easily assembled. I knew my carpet was really dirty because it had not been cleaned in about 3-4 years.  With two dogs and two cats, it should be cleaned about twice each year.  Okay, so straight out of the box, a quick read of the instructions and I was off and running.  There were a couple areas where I had spot cleaned with a hand-held cleaner.  This left much lighter spots on the carpet, so I knew that the rest of the carpet was pretty dirty.  On to the first swipe down the carpet and I could see a difference!  Wow, this was actually fun!  Like one of the reviewers had said, it was just like vacuuming.  You push the spray button as you push the cleaner forward, and also when you pull it backward.  It's amazing to see all that dirt flow up and know it had been in the carpet.  Not only that, but my carpet is really old and when it was finished I couldn't believe it was the same carpet.  After the carpet was done I allowed it to dry for a day and the whole room smelled wonderful.  When the carpet was dry I did notice a small, about 4 inch strip that I had missed, so I got the cleaner out and did that area once again.  It was too much fun.  I actually wished that I had more carpet to clean! One thing that I did learn on the 2nd use was when cleaning the machine.  Even though I had vacuumed thoroughly there was some lint that got caught in the vacuum slot and it did not come out by the recommended cleaning method.  So, what I did was lift the unit up over my kitchen sink and, with a turkey baster, carefully squirted the water down into the slit so the water and debris would run back down toward the direction of the floor.  This got the machine clean as a whistle.  I would definitely recommend this product to friends, family and neighbors.  I am, to say the least, impressed.

I was considering buying the Bissell I normally rent.  I looked at the reviews for this one before I did and boy am I ever glad I did!  I bought this Hoover for a lot less money, it had hand tools and a hose and this little upright powered through carpet stains I couldn't believe it was able to remove.  I do agree with some of the other reviewers, about the rotating brush tool, in that it doesn't reclaim the solution as well as I would like.  I ended up using one of the other tools to reclaim the dirty solution and re-wet for rinse.  I will say it is awfully hard to argue the results.  I was able to take grease and oil out of my truck seat, 3-week old dirty apple juice spills out of my wife's car seats and I got chocolate stains out of our off-white linen sofa.  The carpet and upholstery service couldn't even get those chocolate stains out!

I have pets & hard wood floors/tile throughout the house. So hair gets under furniture which I had to move in order to sweep it up! I have tried a couple of vacuum cleaners designated for hard flooring but one only picked up dust and got clogged easily, the other one...well, it was bag-less so the filters (all of them) got clogged easily and neither of them were able to reach under the furniture. THIS one though, the BISSELL ZING CANISTER VACUUM, BLOWS ME AWAY! With the adjustable wand and different types of attachments, I am able to get under the furniture to vacuum without having to move it! My boyfriend and nephew laughed at me when they saw the size of it and they just knew it wasn't going to cut it! After I vacuumed the entire house, including window sills, ceiling fans, area rugs & the couches, they were floored! LoL at them! It's lightweight design is very helpful for me to carry around since I have a bad back, plus it rolls around too! This little vacuum cleaner deserves 10 stars because we have special needs with having a house full of animals; 2 cats and 2 dogs; & 3 boys every other weekend that eat snacks on the couch and leave lots of crumbs behind (and so do my nephew and boyfriend!)! I vacuum 2-3 times a week now without complaining or needing help with moving some of the furniture and to be honest with you, the air quality in the house seems to be much better now too! I would like to be able to add a 2nd hose to it and am looking for an attachment that actually has brushes that rotate (one of our rugs is a different, thicker texture so I have to break out the other vacuum just for that rug). I'm quite sure that you will love this vacuum as much as I do! 10 STARS!!!!!!!

It works great on the wood and tile floors. The carpet attachment did not pickup as much but did an ok job. I would recommend this product.

We have two kids and a dog. That should about sum up the reasons we need our carpets cleaned often. The problem, though, is that I hate lugging our big carpet cleaner out to use, it takes too long, and then we have to basically stay out of the house while the carpet dries. I also don't like having to pay for professional cleaning. I've wanted a spot cleaner for so long, and I was sent the Rug Doctor Portable Spot Cleaner for review (however, all these opinions and experiences are honest and my own).

First things first, right out of the box it was pretty easy to figure out how it all works. There was nothing to piece together, it was already assembled and more or less ready to go. I just had to fill one of the removable reservoirs with clean, hot water and add the included cleaning solution (the cleaning solution included is a deluxe sample and seems to be enough for about two full uses). There were easy-to-read fill lines to indicate how much water and how much cleaning solution. After that it was basically plug and go. I didn't even need to wait for it to warm up. The handle/suction head has a spinning brush that you can turn on and off. It also is where the solution is sprayed from.

I have a large living room rug that is white and beige and has spots all over it from spilled kids drinks and snacks. I picked a spot and just got started! I used the handle to spray on the area and then pulled it along to scrub the area and suction up the water. I could also turn the scrubbing bristles off so it would just suction. Either way, it worked great. It was a little like my eyes had to adjust because I didn't even believe what I was seeing. The spots that I thought were going to be there forever were just... gone! There was no harsh smell, I used the suction over the spot a few times and it dried pretty quickly.

I also tried it out in the backseat of my car, just to get an idea of how it works on upholstery. I had a set-in stain of spilled milk or something like that where my kids sit. I used the Rug Doctor Portable Spot Cleaner on it and thought it didn't disappear, it did lighten considerably and appear clean, even though you could still see remnants of the spot. Again, not strong odor. Using the unit out in the garage with my car was great because of the handle that pulls up and is easily to pull along the cleaner.

I like how compact it is. There's a carry handle, and then the retractable handle that both sit flush with the body of the cleaner. The hose and head wrap around the front and are stored nicely, and the generously long power cord also has a wrap storage in the rear of the unit. It's not too heavy at all, even will a filled container of water. Because of it's portability and long nozzle, hose, and power cord, it's really great for stairs, using in a car, or on furniture.

I'm excited to see what more I can do with this. I'm going to use it mostly for stains as they come, rather than wait to have to do a whole carpet cleaning. That should lighten the problem a lot. Since I'm a mom and don't have a tone of time, this will come in such handy because it is so easy to use! Definitely worth it and I can't recommend it highly enough.

I got this when I purchased a Bissell Big Green Machine and after cleaning just one well soiled carpet, I look forward to doing the rest of the house! One slow pass and the dirt and stain is gone! The carpet machine came with a small bottle of Bissell 2X Prof. Deep Cleaning Formula that I have not used yet, so I can not comment on it, but thiscleaning solution works very well!

This actually works! I used it on tile. My friend borrowed some for her carpet  and it worked good on that also. I've tried many things. This is the best.

I bought an area rug and a hall runner for a hardwood floor apartment. They were slipping and sliding all over the place, and when I realized how dangerous that was, I searched to see if a product like this existed.

When I saw the picture, I didn't think it could possibly work. When I ordered it and saw the item in person, I doubted it even more.

Then I used it. XD

The rugs don't slide now even when I TRY to move them. It's almost annoying when you need to move the rugs for some reason and realize you can't anymore LOL! Even when I do cardio workout DVDs running around over them, they don't budge! This product WORKS.

Bought this carpet cleaner after renting "machines" from the hardware store every time I wanted to clean the carpet.  It is very sturdy and works well.  The "collection bucket" is easy to get in an out and the carpet cleaner gives you adequate warning before it is full.  Glad I made the purchase.  It has definitely paid for itself!

I happend upon this when looking for a new vacuum and thought it sounded good. After all, a vacuum is just a vacuum, right? WRONG! This thing really cleaned my carpet of things that my old one wouldn't dream of picking up. I'm getting loose carpet fiber (the new carpet kind of shedding) on carpet that is 10+ years old! And the sand tracked in on shoes, way down deep that I never knew was there!
First of all being bagless means that you will empty the accumulated dirt-in this case the container- way more often than you would ever change a bag and that means more efficient sucking power. It's not inconvenient like some people said bagless ones are, I see it as very helpful. I changed my bag every couple months because I hated it! Now it's so easy I empty the canister 2-3 times a cleaning spree and always have a "fresh bag". The container is large so I don't have to empty that often but I like to know it's operating at it's best. We don't have dogs or cats, but being somewhat of a clean freak (so I'm told) I really thought my carpet was clean as I vacuum 1-2 times a week because I have little ones playing on it. With this, I vacuumed 3 times in 2 days and each time got alot more stuff. I took it to demonstrate for my grandma and went over her carpet 3 times in a row and was still picking up more stuff each time. I was truly amazed and am anxious to keep on cleaning till I get it all!
The spinduster doesn't work as great as I hoped, but again I'm kinda obsessive about cleaning so I may be expecting too much. It is nice for dusting mini blinds and ceiling fans though. I love the super stretchy hose as my old one was rigid plastic and short! I can't see how it would get clogged like the other reviewer said unless you have a pile of pet hair. But if it does, you know it's doing a great job of picking it up! The vacuum is easy to push (self-propelled I think) and while I was unable to vacuum while pregnant because my old one was hard to push, I could have really used this then!
The dust cup filter is washable and it comes with non-washable HEPA filters but washable ones are available. I researched HEPA and TRUE HEPA information recently looking for an air purifier, and the TRUE HEPA captures more junk in the air than the regular HEPA, and way, way more than the vacuums that claim allergen filtration. The TRUE HEPA filtration is important to me being the picky person I am, and I hope it eliminates the dust stirred up while vacuuming. Also available is a neat "turbo booster" attachment to clean upholstery and furniture. As well as the bare floor attachments.  One more thing of interest is the brush attachment that comes with it. It's oblong instead of like most round. I thought "weird" at first, but once I used it, I notice it fits in some narrow areas that the round one won't. Proved handy for me.
