Rug Doctor - bloody marvellous!

[jamiesam]

Am rug doctor convert. Recommended by Branster on recent thread on steam cleaners. (Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou). Hire from Homebase for £21 including cleaning fluids and cleaned bedroom carpet, stairs and living room rug. They look like new!

I'm honestly not on a retainer. Just do it - guess it's basically just an industrial standard carpet cleaner. Am shocked at quite how dirty they were (everywhere else in house is hard floors, I suppose the dirt has to 'rest' somewhere! Have also used optional carpet shield at £7 (form of Scotchguard I believe)

Crusade over...

Oops. PS meant to also rate steam cleaners/mops. Have unknown brand, second-hand one courtesy of sister. 1/2 pint of water, no detergent and practically no elbow grease and tiled kitchen floor is dead clean! Takes 5/10 mins tops (takes longer to sweep for dust and move furniture around)

thats good to know, i will definately take a trip to homebase, my carpets are desperate for some tlc
