Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this carpet cleaner. This carpet cleaner was so fun to test out. It comes in a medium size box, and the larger parts are unassembled. The instruction manual is well-written and easy to understand, so the assembly is very simple. The size of the actual carpet cleaner is great. It is small enough to fit in a cramped closet, but still tall enough that I and my 6 ft husband can use it comfortably. The power is great. It sprays a decent amount of soap & solution, and the sucks it up very well- the rug I used it on was damp afterwards, but dry enough that I didn't have to worry about it a few hours later. The included tools are also easy to attach and use. It maneuvers very well- my 1 year old loved pushing it around because of how easily it rolls. I used it primarily on a rug that was once an ivory color with lots of bright patterns- that has a lot of grimy grey now. I vacuumed a couple of areas and was pleased that my husband could tell exactly where I used it.
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this carpet cleaner. The design is super simple and easy to use, not very many pieces or buttons so no room for confusion and easy clean up after use. I have only used the hose feature on the cleaner but the roller head of the vacuum is a bit more narrow than I'm used to so I can just see that impacting time when I go to shampoo carpets/rugs. The suction was good, I noticed a quick drying time after I was done cleaning the couch with the hose feature and I did two passes. Two with soapy water and two with just water to rinse the soap away. The couch was completely dry within 1-2 hours. Just from daily use and two kids, the dirty water reservoir was pretty dirty even after the second pass. It cleaned up everything between spilled drinks, smeared toddler snack, baby spit up, spilled breastmilk and much more. I plan to run another cleaning on it soon. I loved the fine even sprayer it had on the hose feature as I wasn't creating uneven saturation.
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this carpet cleaner. I appreciated the power of this carpet cleaner, which is superior to the small spot cleaner I have. It got several set-in pet stains out of my couch upholstery as well as carpets. The attachments made it easier to spot clean, which is what I typically need. It also isn't too heavy to push around like the big commercial cleaners. I did find it somewhat cumbersome to clean properly, but I think that's just part of having a complex machine like this. Overall, I'd recommend this cleaner.
I didn't realize at first that this vacuum doubled as an upholstery cleaner and that fact alone made it much better! I do own a regular vacuum and a regular upholstery cleaner for comparison. I think this vaccum cleaner stands up to a regular vaccum very well and I like that it's light weight since the addition of water to it gives some extra weight. I will say however that the attachment and hose have a bag they can be put away in but I personally prefer for all of the pieces to a vacuum be able to be "put away" on the vacuum. The upholstery cleaner part of it isn't as strong as an upholstery cleaner alone because it's an attachment part to the vacuum but I think as a space saver it's excellent. It definately does enough to get the job done. At my house in particular its up against a toddlers mess and cat mess. I use it largely to clean my couch. I have a big fluffy fuzzy sofa and it helps to clean it off and leave a fresh smell behind on a couch that otherwise can attract some gross odors ie old milk, cat vomit etc the size is very comparable to any other vacuum and is easy to manuver. I did also notice that if you press the button for the cleaning spray while the vacuum is off it still sprays so I have made a puddle in my house a couple times trying to pick it up. Although one thing I loved about this that my other upholstery cleaner doesn't have is the self cleaning tool feature. Mine you have to suck up clean water and do a whole ordeal to keep it clean. This one has a mode you switch it to to clean its own self out! I with the upholstery attachment was a little strong but everything else about it was great. I recieved this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel and it was a delight to test it.
Cleaning up messes of toddler and cats the easy way!

I received this carpet cleaner from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I really enjoy using this product. So far I've used it on spot cleaning with the hose attachment and it works well! When applying the soapy water, it has a wide width it covers. To close spraying the spot it doesn't cover much, and to far it sprays on to much, such as a kitchen table chair it sprays on the ground. Still working on perfecting that. I wish the wand attachment was a bit wider so you wouldn't have to go over it so many times. I also wish the bristles were a bit longer as well, as you're scrubbing it's also sucking up the water so I don't feel like I can scrub as hard. Overall I love the shampooer and works great for cleaning up toddler and cat messes. Let's be real, no parent has time to stop and fully clean up messes, but with this handy tool I now can!
My newest cleaning obsession! We live in a rental, so going into using this product I was nervous to see just how dirty our carpets were. I started off using the TurboClean Pet Upright Carpet Cleaner in my toddlers rooms, where dried milk spots and drool spotted the floor, and the cleaner quickly lifted up even the oldest, toughest spots. I already have plans to give my couch and rugs a good scrub and sanitize next! Pros: - Quick and easy to set up and disassembly for cleaning - The clear tank is satisfying to see the lifted dirt and gunk - Clean look and sturdy feel of the machine - The formulas have a great fresh scent that left my rooms looking and smelling clean - There is a specific sanitizer solution that I think will come in handy, especially after a household sickness Cons: - if you're short on closet space, this product is about the size of a vacuum - I felt the need to make multiple "dry" passes over the wet areas to really soak up the excess moisture - Left behind wet lint balls to clean up, despite dry vacuuming the rooms before using the carpet cleaner Pro tip: dry vacuum any area before using the carpet cleaner! Between a family pet, two toddlers, and a clumsy mom (me!) I know this will be a handy product for cleaning our family messes. Thank you so much Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this carpet cleaner!
I recently tried this carpet cleaner, and I have to say, it exceeded my expectations. The powerful suction removed even deeply embedded dirt. I used it to clean are rugs in our house and also our couch. The attachments to be able to clean upholstery were a must have, I was able to easily clean out couch where our dog likes to lay and my little kids like to eat. With two littles and a very active dog this carpet cleaner will get used often. I appreciated how easy it was to assemble and use, with clear instructions. The tank capacity was a good size, allowing me to clean a large area without needing to refill. It didn't leave my carpet too wet either, which helped it dry faster. It's easy to grab out of the closet and use for quick cleans. Overall, it's a reliable, efficient, and easy-to-use cleaner that I'd highly recommend to anyone looking to give their carpets a deep, thorough clean. I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
A lifesaver during a lovely yet messy holiday season!

I'll start by saying this carpet cleaner, kindly gifted by the Stellar Product Testing Panel (THANK YOU!), couldn't have arrived at a more opportune time. It was delivered just days before Christmas, the very day my darling children decided it was a great idea to stomp wildly on a gel-filled drawing pad hard enough to make it pop. Whatever mystery goo fortified with non-washable blue pigment they use to fill that thing squirted out all over our light carpet. With no bandwidth to deal with it on Christmas Eve Eve, I sprayed it with some basic cleaner and hoped for the best. Bad move. After Christmas Day, I finally tried the carpet cleaner. It was really simple to assemble in a minute and was up and running in just a couple more. Had I not been too lazy to assemble it days ago, it would have undoubtedly taken care of the unidentified blue ink-slime instantaneously. However, since the stain was dry, my expectations were low. I used upright mode to first clean the whole speckled area. It was easy to use and cleaned an alarming amount of unseen dirt from the carpet. Yikes -- I've never had a stronger desire to clean the rest of the carpets before. So powerful and effective! It dulled the blue spots to barely there, but I wanted to see if the brush attachment could finish the job. To my surprise and delight, whatever toxic sludge they use actually came out about 98% of the way. Only I would noice the faint discoloration. Afterwards, the dirty water tank was super easy to remove, empty, and rinse. The best part was the self-clean mode on the brush head, as I have a nearly 15-year-old Bissell handheld spot cleaner still in use, and cleaning the brush head interior is always the hardest part. Such an improvement! First pass at this carpet cleaner was a great success, which is wonderful because my kids ended Christmas Day with a stomach flu that's still raging. Thankful for the easy and thorough ability to make quick work of those unexpected messes of the holidays. Oof.
