Excelle
Great carpet cleane
This is a great carpet cleaner I had the older version which was getting tired so after much deliberation I decided to get a new one and it’s the best decision I made carpets are clean & dry in an hr. Love it.
Excellent machine
Cleans the carpets well and sycks up the water well enough to walk on carpets within the hour Thank you
Improvement on previous model
I would have sent my previous washer back under guarantee but we had not kept the box. A lesson to be learnt! However, this one is a big improvement, in particular the way the brushes can be removed easily for cleaning. Obviously with it being more sophisticated there is more to go wrong but the box is safely stored in the shed for the 6year duration of the guarantee!
The cleaner does a really good job. With three dogs in the house it is an essential item. The carpets look as good as new when I’ve finished but of course once you start to clean them you need to keep it up. Why is this?
