Which Carpet Cleaner is Best?


There’s nothing quite like getting home after a long, hard day and kicking your shoes off while running your toes through your carpet. Carpet is soft and reassuring, comfortable and homey. However, that carpet can get really dirty. There are all kinds of statistics out there that describe just how dirty carpet can get, and we’re not going there. What we want to emphasize is how to keep that carpet clean. Let’s take a look at some of the best carpet cleaners out there.

The Bissell ProHeat 2x Healthy Home Deep Cleaner is an affordable, effective cleaner that powers away stains and dirt, leaving your carpet looking clean and like new. It extracts most of the water it uses, leading to fast drying times., and also features a spot-cleaning tool to directly tackle stains. One feature that really caught our eye is a built-in heater that warms the cleaning solution, which significantly helps remove the tougher stains you may come across.

The Hoover Platinum Collection Carpet Cleaner F7412900 offers many of the same features of the Bissell, while also possessing an LED headlight, designed exclusively to expose less-visible stains, such as pett messes. Its status light will also let you know when the solution is running low or when the recovery tank needs to be emptied. Despite those advantages, it does extract less water than other models, leading to longer drying times.

The Kenmore Professional Floor and Carpet Cleaner 84973 is a 3-in-1 cleaner, which can clean carpets, bare floors, and hardwood floors through various brush accessories. This machine is unique in that it extracts foam that works in to the fibers of your carpet. This foam causes dirt to rise to the surface, where it is subsequently vacuumed away. As a result, it is a little more difficult to use, and since it is really a shampooer, it only removed a small amount of dirt.

The last model we are going to take a look at is the Rug Doctor Mighty Pro is a machine that can be either purchased or rented, giving you flexibility to care for your carpet even if you don’t have the financial wherewithal to purchase a machine outright. This machine offers the many basics of both the Bissell and Hoover, while being extremely easy to use, leading to you being able to treat your carpets quickly and effortlessly. However, it only cleans and extracts on the backward stroke, which makes maneuverability a little trickier and time consuming.

Each of these models offers something unique, while possessing the power and convenience of being able to clean your carpet and keep it looking new.
