This steam cleaner is great! We recently moved into a great rental property with one major problem -- FILTHY carpets. (Seriously... yuck! They were actually STICKY, they were so dirty!!!) The landlord promised to have them professionally cleaned before we moved in, but guess what... On top of that, my dog didn't adjust well to the move and essentially had to be re-housebroken. AND my 2-year-old is potty training (and having plenty of accidents). As you can imagine, I was at my absolute wit's end after a couple of weeks. I just couldn't live like that!!! I considered renting a steam cleaner, but figured I'd need to re-rent every time my dog "acted out" or my kid didn't make it to the potty in time -- forget that! So I bit the bullet and bought this model. I COULDN'T LOVE AN APPLIANCE MORE!!!!!! It's easy to use and got an astounding amount of gunk out of the carpet -- which is berber... not easy to clean. Since using this machine, the stickiness is completely gone, and the carpet is at least 3 shades lighter! (In the interest of full disclosure, I should mention that the machine didn't get ALL the stains out -- but I seriously doubt ANY machine could.) I rated the "features" as 4 stars, only because the dirty-water-recapture tank can be tricky to attach. You have to make sure it is seated exactly right, or the machine won't suck back up the water it puts down. Once you get the hang of it, though, it's really no problem. All in all, this cleaner is ABSOLUTELY worth the money. I was about to have a nervous breakdown over my carpet situation -- now I'm perfectly happy! (AND content in the knowledge that I'll be ready when one of my little darlings has another accident!) Trust me -- your carpets COULDN'T be dirtier than mine were, and I'm thrilled by this machine's performance. I'm sure you will be, too!
