Stair Carpet Cleaner

Can anyone recommend a cleaner for stair carpets?,.

My Vaxx carpet shampoo-er is on its way out , the suction isn't brilliant and it is leaking. Even stripping down the pipes and filters , it works a while but the suction isn't great so the carpets are left very damp. (I charm my eldest into going back and forward with the machine , boring repetitive but he does it )

We have taken up the hall carpet , and I'm going to replace with hard flooring . There's carpet in the bedrooms but they just need vacuumed .

The stair carpet is staying but I need to clean that- vacuuming isn't enough

Any of the hand held carpet shampooers ? I know most are for Spot Clean or Pet Stain but as long as they are powerful enough they'd do the trick . ( I'd do alternate steps so we could still use them )
Any stand out favourites or ones to avoid ?

Thank you .

The Vax Spot Wash Max is brilliant

Oh , thank you .
There's few few on AO , I'll need to filter through the wattage for power and the features (and anything I don't need )
