Default Rug Doctor



Hired one today and ok its not as easy as this slapper makes it look, but after two hours on my hands and knees (and then I did the carpet) it looks very good. Cream carpet too .. hall stairs and landing .. it was black and now its cream again ..

Anyone with a dirty carpet .. (Oldspice I'm looking your way) they are well worth a rent ..

I have hired them a few times they do a good job. Don't be fooled about buying the rug doctor shampoo. I just used normal Vax stuff.

how much are they Pimmo.. I have an upright Vax that is good, but wouldn't mind giving something a bit more powerful a go.

Free when your father in law owns a laundrette and rents them out.

The supermarkets hire them IIRC - it's been a while since I've used one, but, yes they are good.
