Rug doctor cured my carpet
5/5
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.
