Customers like the performance of the carpet upholstery cleaning machine. They say it works exceptionally well, beautifully, and effectively on carpets and stairs. The cleaning solution it comes with is very effective, and it works well as a spot cleaner. The hose is long enough and reaches everything well, and the trigger and spray nozzle function nicely. It sucks solution like mad and leaves carpet nearly dry.

I. Love. This. Thing!!!
After calling around town and getting sticker shock on how much it costs to have upholstery professionally cleaned, I was very excited to snag this on a Black Friday sale over a year ago. It has paid for itself over and over again. I keep the cleaning solution in the reservoir ready to go so I can grab it when something liquid spills and standard cleaning methods prove to be insufficient. I even had an experience with paint on the carpet and I snagged this and it took it out immediately and completely. It does drip when the suction releases, so I put a small towel down to catch that. I usually spray items down for a “pretreat” and let them set for a few minutes. Then I carefully and slowly pull the nozzle over the upholstery or carpet. It’s satisfying watching the tinted liquid get sucked up. You can tell by the dirty reservoir that it’s doing it’s job! It takes a while to finish sofa cushions, because I’m careful to go back over them when the stain is still visible when wet. You can just barely see on our grey sofa it could probably use another go, but I’m too tired for now and it honestly looks GREAT to the naked eye. I let the cushions dry out overnight before putting them back. Not only are the stains mostly gone, but the cushions look refreshed. Be careful lifting the dirty reservoir out to dump it, I spilled it everywhere the first time, but haven’t again. I’m still on the first bottle of cleaning liquid it came with and I’ve done a BUNCH of items, stains, and spills this past year - I even took it to a friends house to help them out. It’s easy to carry and packs up well. I absolutely love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy the competitor!!!
Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2023
This is a longer review. But hopefully helpful. I had previous version of rug doctor for 10 years and it was amazing. It cleaned up after 2 new puppies and one who refuses to house train. It cleaned old and new stains and cleaned what competition could not as you can see in pictures. My old rug doctor got a crack in the dirty water tank which we sealed with a special glue and it lasted another few years of constant use until it started to leak internally. It had a motorized brush that never failed and bristles that stayed in good condition for again ten years. I loved it. It cleaned everything we could throw at it new and old. When it died I made mistake and bought the leading competition thinking it must be better. I was terribly wrong. That machine must be defective but good luck if you missed out on return window. After hours and hours of horrible customer service I am stuck with a defective machine that does not clean any stain whatsoever. I was without a carpet cleaner that would actually work for 2 months so wised up and I bought newer version of rug doctor that cleaned what the other couldn’t despite 3 different times trying to clean a fresh stain. The doctor cleaned that now old stain in one try. It sucked solution like mad and left carpet nearly dry too. Which is very important if you know about cleaning carpet.
The prior rug doctor cleaned so well I was an idiot to not just save myself from the headache of having to deal with what I am going through now. The new version is much the same except it has rubber bristles and no motorized agitator which I did like - I don’t know why they would get rid of that functionality that put it ahead of any other spot cleaner. Regardless it worked beautifully to finally clean stains up and out for good. The new dirty water tank opens up more fully and it’s easier to clean. It’s not a particularly small machine and it packs a lot of power which means carpets dry faster. It does have wheels though and it’s not overly heavy. It’s a quality made machine that I hope lasts another ten years. I wish the cleaning head could be removed but it’s not a deal breaker. This is a power house of a cleaner and is made well to stand time. I hope the newer version lasts as long and since nothing about the main body of machine has changed it should. I never cleaned hose out after use with old one now I know better so just put some hot water in a bowl and suck it through hose and maybe that will keep it better so I’m told. I will never get another spot cleaner. It’s a ten out of ten. I’m still using this on every stain the other one couldn’t clean to save its life. It’s been 2 months with a dog that has cancer and vomits and the one that loves to mark on carpet. Some things about the competition brand new bad awful highly rated one- the cleaning head is small. Too small and it was defective so it didn’t suck appropriately. A huge bonus is I never had to contact rug Doctor customer service ever because both machines work amazing. Good luck if you have a problem with the other one - you will be frustrated out of your mind. I’m. Very pleased that all the stains that have accumulated are gone and my carpets do need a deep cleaning overall but for a spot cleaner that I use weekly if not byweekly this is the go to work horse. Bravo rug doctor. Thank you for making a superb top of line product.

Compre la maquina pensando en mi negocio de estética automotriz en solo día la utilice para la limpieza de mi sala y asientos de auto, funciono a la perfección, fácil de usar con un excelente poder de succión, sala y asientos quedaron MUY LIMPIOS ..II la sala quedo seca en un par de horas exponiéndola al sol y los asientos de mi auto secos en menos de 24hrs. El negocio apenas inicia, aun no tengo los suficientes clientes pero considero que es un gran inicio con este equipo de limpieza. Con gusto compartiría mi experiencia en 3 meses mas adelante.
Hola nuevamente..!! aquí reportándome 30 meses después de la compra!! ( Julio 2019 a Enero 2022) la maquina sigue funcionando la uso para lavar, salas, colchones y por supuesto asientos de auto. Si bien no trabaja diario lleva 30 meses trabajando!! ( cada vez que es requerida) el sistema de inyección dejo de funcionar pero la succión al 100%. Mi sugerencia es que utilices un fumigador de 3 Lts. trabajas mas rápido y problema resuelto. Mi negocio sigue trabajando. He tenido funcionando la maquina hasta 4horas continuas (lavado de salas) Sin ningún problema, producto recomendable.
