For Pet Owners
Four-legged friends make your life happier and your home livelier. However, without the right tools at hand, cleaning after pets can be rather time-consuming. The Bissell ProHeat 2X Revolution Pet Pro is an innovative and easy-to-use appliance that will allow you to quickly get rid of stains, dirt, dust, pet hair, and debris and keep both carpeted floors and upholstery clean and tidy.
Unlike many other carpet cleaner machines available on the market, this unit comes with a hand-held 2-in-1 Pet Upholstery Tool that allows both wet and dry cleaning. Using the switch on the tool's handle, you can activate its Dry Mode (the switch is in the upper position) to pick up pet hair and any dry debris. The item has a special channel for dry suction and a removable cup for collecting the debris. After dry vacuuming, you can activate its Wet Mode (the switch is in the lower position) for deeper and more thorough cleaning. The attachment has a trigger for spraying the cleaning solution, ergonomic bristles for treating stains, and a nozzle for picking up the dirty water. After cleaning, you can remove the nozzle and rinse it under a tap.
Even more, the purchase includes a tough stain tool and a 3-in-1 upholstery tool for the most effective cleaning of stairs, carpets, and soft furniture. You will also get a removable hose attachment, an accessory bag, and a measuring cup. To maximise cleaning performance, the manufacturer has included 3 sample solutions: Wash Protect Pet, Wash & Protect Pro, and Oxygen Boost.
Revolutionary Approach for Excellent Cleaning Results
As for the main unit, it is perfectly suited for cleaning your carpeted floors. The handle is equipped with a spray trigger that will allow you to apply the chosen solution; a foot-activated CleanShot button was specially introduced for pretreating tough pet stains. Two brush rolls and as many as 12 rows of Dirt Lifter power brushes will help to remove even deep down dirt and stubborn stains. Two removable water tanks will ensure an effective and hygienic cleaning.
Functional as it is, the carpet shampooer is lightweight and manoeuvrable. In addition to its functional cleaning attachments, the unit has a low-profile foot that reaches under the furniture. Removable nozzles and a brush roll cover, as well as water tanks, are easy to clean after use.
Allowing you to keep your home shining clean and free of odours, the Bissell ProHeat 2X Revolution Pet Pro is the best carpet washer for pet owners.

Revolutionary Design
Sometimes, a little improvement in design makes a big difference. Unlike most of its competitors, the Bissell 18583 utilises the patented HeatWave technology to provide the most effective performance throughout the cleaning session. Designed to deliver consistent water temperature and equipped with two rows of super-efficient brushes, the appliance will gently lift away dirt, spots, and stains to ensure professional cleaning results each time.
The unit uses a 2-in-1 tank system so the reservoirs for clean and dirty water are separated, which makes cleaning more hygienic. The tanks boast a competitive capacity of 3.7 L each so you won't need to refill or empty them too often. To be more exact, you will be able to clean around 40m² without doing so.
In addition to that, the unit has a low-profile foot, which will ensure hassle-free cleaning underneath the furniture. Moreover, the Bissell 18583 comes with a tough stain brush that will help you fight the most stubborn stains and a carpet cleaning formula to try the appliance as soon as the purchase arrives.
The box includes a detachable hose and additional accessories (a tough stain tool and a 2-in-1 crevice tool) that will make taking care of all carpeted surfaces including stairs easier than ever. These hand-held attachments will also come in very handy for cleaning car interiors and upholstery.
Effective and Efficient
Now, let's have a look at the unit's settings. The carpet shampooer has a deep clean mode for a thorough cleaning and an express clean mode for quick clean-up. It takes just about as little as 30 minutes for the carpets to dry after you use the latter setting. Alternatively, you can use the deep clean mode and use the tough stain tool plus some Bissell detergent for tackling difficult stains and dirt.
Meanwhile, the low profile foot design of the domestic carpet washer will allow you to easily manoeuvre around furniture. Though the unit is heavier than some other models, its powerful motor and a number of innovative features make its performance way more effective.
In a word, buying the Bissell 18583 carpet cleaner for home use is a great alternative to hiring a cleaning service. This user-friendly appliance will allow you to deep clean or refresh all carpeted surfaces, including those in the high traffic areas, in the shortest time possible.

A Beast of a Cleaner
Delivering 1200 watts of power, the Vax Rapid Power Refresh carpet cleaner will help you quickly and efficiently accomplish your chores. The appliance is equally good for on the floor and above the floor cleaning and comes will all necessary tools. However, let's first look at the main unit.
So, the machine is equipped with two extra-large 4.7 L twin water tanks. This means that you can clean your room without the need to refill the clean water reservoir or empty the dirty water tank too often. Moreover, the appliance uses the Automix technology that automatically mixes solution and water in the right proportion for achieving the best washing results.
Next, the item has several operating modes. Use its Wash mode to apply water and solution to your carpets and lift away dirt and stains. The unit's Rinse function will allow you to remove residue leaving carpets immaculately clean and fresh. As for the clean modes, the Deep Clean setting will come in useful for lifting deep down dirt and the Quick Clean mode can be recommended for less thorough cleaning; it will help you to refresh your carpets which will completely dry within one hour.
We would also like to add that the unit uses a patented SpinScrub brushbar that not only effectively removes dirt but also features an antimicrobial coating that will prolong its service life. However, some users admit that the brush is a bit tricky to remove for cleaning.
For All-Around Cleaning
As for the stairs, upholstery, and car seat cleaning, the unit comes with a handy upholstery wash tool and a 2.5m hose that will make these tasks a breeze. By the way, the appliance is equipped with an 8m long power cord for on the floor and above the floor cleaning of bigger rooms without unplugging and changing outlets.
Along with the purchase, you will also get a handy storage box and a crevice tool. A sample 250 ml bottle of Vax Platinum Professional solution is included as well, so you can use the carpet cleaner right from the box. Keep note that it is recommended to use only the brand cleaning solutions for the most effective performance of the carpet cleaner machine.
Wrapping it up, the Vax Rapid Power Refresh uses a bunch of innovative features to make your chores less difficult and time-consuming. This powerful and functional unit is definitely one of the best carpet cleaners on the market.

For Smaller Spaces
For those seeking a portable carpet cleaner that will help you quickly clean smaller rooms and high-traffic areas, we would recommend the Vax Compact Power Plus. The unit only weighs 5.5 kg and it is easy to manoeuvre around the furniture. Besides, the carpet washer has an ergonomic narrow floor head that makes cleaning in tight spaces hassle-free. And, certainly, it will take less space for storage compared to other models.
That said, this portable device was designed to deliver high-quality cleaning. It is equipped with an Aquaspin brushbar that tackles tough stains and pet messes just like that. Featuring a special antimicrobial coating, the brush bristles are well protected from mould and fungi growth. This will help to prolong the service life of the unit and prevent any odours from forming. Note that it is also important to carefully follow the manufacturer's maintenance tips.
Moreover, you will get 3 sample solution bottles. In addition to the VAX Platinum Professional solution, the purchase includes a Pre-treatment solution for loosening stubborn stains and embedded dirt and a Post-treatment solution that will protect your carpets after washing. All these Vax products are Woolsafe approved.
Perfect Results Time After Time
The appliance uses Heat Blast technology to ensure faster drying of the carpets by means of heated air. This feature helps enhance your comfort and prevent mould and fungi growth. Compact as it is, the appliance uses two separate water tanks (for clean and for dirty water, 1.8 L each) to provide hygienic cleaning time after time. Note that the tanks are rather small, so you might need to refill and empty them more often when cleaning bigger rooms.
We also put your attention that this carpet cleaned was not designed for upholstery cleaning. For this reason, it has no upholstery attachment or hose. However, the appliance is great for what it was made for and it has a 6.7 m cleaning reach, which is not bad at all for such a compact unit.
All things considered, the Vax Compact Power Plus is a comfy and efficient machine great for washing smaller carpets and rugs and cleaning rooms with carpeted floors. Lightweight and portable, it is easy to manoeuvre and move from one room to another.

What Is a Carpet Cleaner?
A carpet cleaner is a must-have for any owner of a flat or house with carpeted floors. The strength of these cleaners is that they can effectively get rid of dirt and spills ingrained in fibres of the carpets. On top of that, they can be used for cleaning most other floor types, saving you considerable effort, time, and money you'd spend on professional cleaning services. What's more, most of them also have a disinfection function, meaning that in addition to keeping your place in pristine condition they can also remove dust, allergies, and bacteria that might linger around.
Another distinct advantage of a carpet cleaner is that it incorporates a range of cleaning functions and fluids that help it to remove even stubborn stains in no time.
Don't know which carpet cleaner will be best for you? Lost in a multitude of choices? In this article, we've reviewed the five best carpet cleaners from different brands so you can choose the most suitable one for your needs.
Another appliance that might pique your interest is a handheld vacuum cleaner. It will be especially useful for families with small children and pets, where cleanups should be done regularly.
What Features to Compare
Efficiency
When it comes to carpet cleaners, the cleaning efficiency is what matters. Compared to any traditional hoover, in a carpet cleaner, it is several times higher. This will allow you to clean deeper and, consequently, clean much less often than usual. The efficiency of a carpet cleaner depends on a few things. First, it is power. The higher the power, the better (and quicker) the vac will gulp dirt. In general, 300 Watts is considered enough for cleaning hard floors such as linoleum and parquet and carpets with a low pile. But if you have pets and your floors tend to get soiled rather quickly it will be better to opt for a cleaner yielding 450 Watts and more. Second, it is the main attachment, namely its width. The size of this attachment will tell you how much time you'll need to spend cleaning. If you don't want to run the unit over the same area several times, we recommend choosing models that have a brush with the width of 8-10 inches.
Usability and Performance
Moving on, we recommend checking out such things as the size of the cleaner and the length of its cord. Ideally, it should be rather lightweight and you should be able to connect it to a power outlet without using extensions. The length of the cord considered the most optimal is 20-26 feet. What is also important is the tank capacity. Depending on the size of your place, you can choose from 2 to 20 litres. Another thing that will make the use of the vac more convenient is its handle. We recommend opting for models that allow you to adjust the height of the handle, making it comfy for people of all builds to use it without bending.
Package and Additional Features
Finally, pay attention to the additional features included in the package. These can greatly extend the functions of a cleaner. As a rule, most carpet cleaners come including 5-7 attachments: 2-3 are used for wet cleaning and 3-4 are intended for dry cleaning. The standard attachment has an adjustable brush, which allows you to clean all types of carpets. When you move, this brush sweeps the floor and sucks in the dirt at the same time so that you do not need to return to the same area twice.
As for additional attachments, the crevice tool works wonders cleaning hard-to-reach areas such as louvre-boards, gaps between the furniture, heaters, and ledges. A big attachment for carpets or a small hand-held attachment for upholstered furniture is usually used for wet cleaning. These attachments have special mechanisms inside which allow them to disperse cleaning solution. In most carpet cleaners for home use, there are 2 cleaning stages. First, you have to spray the detergent mixed with water onto the needed surface, then a brush whips this mix into the foam, after that the foam enters deep into the fibres of the carpet, and finally, all the dirt goes up together with the foam. A carpet shampooer absorbs everything into a dirty water tank and, as a result, the surface dries. There is a possibility to wash both the upholstery and furniture during the cleaning since a carpet cleaner splashes shampoo with water and immediately collects it.
A SpinScrub patented system is a brush that rotates in two opposite directions and scrubs the carpet pile on all sides. This makes it possible to remove even the stubborn grime stains, allergens, and unpleasant smell with minimal effort. But this system is not available for all models of carpet cleaners.
