I am now the proud owner of a Rapide Ultra 2 Carpet Washer.
After five years of children, our carpets were in a pretty sorry state, so when my new carpet washer arrived on the doorstep I couldn't wait to get started.
At first I was a little scared of this brand new monster machine, having never owned such a thing. But once I had read the very simple instruction manual I realised that it was actually extremely easy to use.
I performed a pre-wash with the pre-treatment kit and wand on the wine stains (ok, can't blame the kids for that), and other unidentifiable stains, and then whizzed across the carpet with the washer. After going over the carpet just once the water that it collected turned black. While this was rather satisfying to see it working so thoroughly I was also a bit disturbed at how dirty our carpets actually were.
This carpet washer successfully removed the stains and made the rest of the carpet look fresh and clean - and it also smelled really good too. I also couldn't believe how dry the carpet was immediately after use.
I have never used anything like this before, and was really really impressed! And I am excited to see that you can also use this product to clean car seats and upholstery.
