For over a decade now, I have run a company that supplies, trains, and services professional carpet cleaners, so I hope you will pardon me if I act like I know what I'm talking about, lol. I have used everything from a Rug Doctor, all the way up through professional truck mounted machines. I have cleaned carpet and floors in trashed-out apartments, high end hotels, expensive lake houses, hospitals, and everything in between. Urine, vomit, blood, feces, coffee, Kool-aid, you name it and I've cleaned it. No matter what equipment you use, the concept of getting soil out of a carpet is the same - use the proper type and amount of chemistry, proper heat level in the water, proper agitation to suspend soil, and proper removal of that water with the soil in it. Appropriate dwell time is also necessary for deeply embedded or chronic soiling issues. This machine is quite capable of producing all the proper elements when used correctly. I do, however, have a few recommendations on changes to the instructions given with the machine. First and foremost, use only half of the detergent that they tell you to. No matter how much soil is present, never ever use more than they suggest. I used only half and achieved fantastic results. I would imagine the full dose is only necessary for serious soil issues. Secondly, double up on the amount of dry strokes that you do, AKA passes that you make without pulling the trigger. Keep going over the carpet with the machine until you no longer see any water coming up through the window in the front. The carpet will still feel damp to the touch, but will be dry much more quickly this way. And last, do a freshwater rinse afterward with nothing but water in the clean hopper. NO detergent. You will see a tremendous amount of leftover detergent and soil residue coming up in the freshwater rinse (this step might seem like a pain, but you will be very glad you did it once you realize that otherwise, all of that residue would have been left behind in the carpet for you to walk on.) Follow up with the same double amount of dry strokes after the fresh rinse. No carpet cleaning machine, no matter how powerful, can remove years of soil build-up in just one use. Particularly if the soil has gotten down to the bottom of the carpet, where it is sewn or glued into its backing. Trying to soak the carpet and get all the way down there has the potential to destroy the carpet's binding and destroy it. So don't bother. (NOTE BENE: This machine, or any other home machine for that matter, is not going to get pet urine out of the padding that's installed under the carpet, and soaking the carpet in an attempt to do so is only going to result in serious problems and microbial growth. Don't do it. Please.) The big difference between home cleaning and the professional truck mounted units is the amount of time it's going to take to get the same result. You may have to use the machine multiple times, with a few days in between to let it dry completely, to get abused carpet to look and smell good again. And remember that soil and damage are two different things, so if your carpet is worn or abraded or has had its pile reversed by foot traffic, that is not something that can be cleaned away. It is damage, not dirt. So don't expect miracles. The brush on this machine is very good at fluffing the pile up and correcting crush damage, and it dug an amazing amount of pet hair out of our freize even after a thorough vacuuming. If you are willing to be patient, use the machine multiple times, and follow all of the advice I've given, there is no reason you cannot get almost as good a result from this machine as you would from having a professional come do it for you. The difference is in the time it's going to take, both in the cleaning and in running back and forth with the water hoppers. I still recommend hiring a professional for those serious yearly deep cleans, but if you have pets or small children in the house this machine is an excellent way to avoid add-on charges for chronic soil and serious restoration issues when you do have the professionals come in to service you.
