Excellent cleaner. Can recommend this for carpets and upholstery.

Excellent cleaner, easy to use

I cannot believe the colour of the water when I used this for the first time! It really leaves carpets clean. So easy to use as no putting anything together can use straight from box. It’s easy to fill up with water and empty when full every part is labelled so it’s idiot proof! The only downside is you do have to keep refilling the tank a lot but I can accept this because of the amazing job it does on your carpets.

I have a Berber type carpet and I really thought I was going to have to take it up and have new fitted as it was so grubby. My old carpet washer had broken and my husband suggested not getting rid of the old carpet until we’d tried a decent cleaner on it. So we bought the rug doctor. And boy am I glad we did. It’s definitely not the easiest carpet to clean but the rug doctor gave it a good go. It was easy to set up. I used the booster spray option with it and the dirt was just flowing up into the reservoir. It was shocking. I began to see clean stripes on my carpet so made sure I followed a particular cleaning path to avoid having this all over the carpet. I had to fill the clean water tank 3 times to do my living room carpet. It didn’t take long to dry either which was brilliant as my old one left the carpet sopping. My carpet is almost clean now. I’d imagine once we’ve done it again it will be like new. To be fair the rug doctor had a lot of grime to cut through. I’m amazed by it. As I said I’m confident a second wash will achieve perfect or near perfect results. Now the upholstery bit. That was a joy to use. I didn’t think my sofas were dirty at all as they certainly didn’t look it. But again, the rug doctor sucked a fair bit of grime out of them and they look plush again. I’m really pleased with my purchase. I can’t honestly say there’s anything I dislike about it. Well ok, maybe a larger clean water tank would be nice. But that’s my only tiny criticism.

rug doctor - superb it cleans carpets wonderfully, but be careful on the amount of cleaning Shark you do as it can leave the carpet wet

Product excellent, have used once and it was both easy to use and completed a great job . Ordering and delivery were easy and very quick

excellent machine very well made, could not believe the amount of dirt that cam out of our carpets, it even cleaned a red wine stain that had bean there for a ages very pleased.

Looked at various carpet cleaners in well known stores, but they all looked very light and flimsy. After reading other reviews about Rug Doctor and then buying, am certainly not disappointed. Very easy to use, a little heavy but easy to wheel around. Extremely pleased with purchase.
