Great Value. Worth The Price.

This cleaner is great.

My wife says it's the best household carpet cleaner she has ever used that is non-commercial.

Her only 2 minor complaints are that its relatively heavy if carrying up/down stairs when full, and hand tool setup is a bit tedious.

As a straight-up carpet cleaner, she is 100% satisfied.

She even finds that it does an excellent job on the kitchen floor and other hard surface floors in the house without any additional attachments. Everything we read about the hard floor attachment says don't waist the money and just use the machine as-is on hard floors. - she agrees. Just use the right liquid cleaner for the right floor type and away you go! The built in brushes scrub the floor and the dirty water is sucked away.

A couple of additional comments: we don't believe this unit actually heats the water as you put hot water in the tank. We believe calling this unit a "steam cleaner" is a bit of a liberal use of the word "steam". Lastly the "heated drying" feature is essentially the motor's exhaust directed at the carpet to aid in drying. We believe it definitely does work, but is the result of smart engineering that directs motor airflow towards the carpet, vs. any special feature designed specifically to dry the carpet.

Bottom line is the cleaner works great and was worth the $99 we paid from Best Buy.

What's great about it: Machine was easy to use and does a fantastic job at a great price.

What's not so great: Attachment tool set-up is tedious. We will continue to use a different compact unit for upholstery, car, and spills.

I would recommend this to a friend!
