Recommendations for carpet cleaner

[squashyhat]

I need a compact carpet cleaner for spot stains that will also tackle ground in dirt in small areas. I've been looking at Vax and Bissell. Does anyone have one like this or can recommend an alternative? Thanks

ive got the vax power platinum max, which is normal one rather than compact or cordless, but ive had a few carpet cleaners and this is definitely the best one, easy to use and not that much bigger than a normal upright vacuum.
I cant imagine a compact cordless one would be able to do a decent job any better than spraying and hand washing small areas.

I've got the Bessel pet spot cleaner, not used it yet but it was on offer for £99 in Argos. I'm going to clean the rug this weekend.

@Branleuse Can you use any carpet shampoo in the smaller spot cleaning machines?

@Branleuse thanks but I just haven't got the room to store a full size one. My ordinary vacuum cleaner is very compact.
@userxx can you post up a review when you have used it?
