Hope you did not pay too much.
They are at the lower end of cleaning machines. You mostly have to put in more effort than the machine.
I am not trying to be offensive but they are not very powerful.
There are cleaning solutions you can use with this machine but it will be a long and laborious job.
Sorry to be pessimistic.

Yip, a definite piece sh-te, but a wind up I'm sure as no one in their right mind would offer a carpet cleaning service based on that dinky toy - would they ???

Nice to know you join a forum as i have lack of knowledge to get some advice and there are plenty of clever sh!ts on here, i dont apreciate the bull sh!te just polite advice, i asume there are plenty of industrial carpet cleaning machines out there that you can hoover up dust and bits of brick aswell as unblock the sink to sucking gutterings clean is there? If the carpet cleaning part of it is no good i will just buy a wet/dry vac and get a seperate carpet cleaner allthough this is not truly the path i want to go down, it would of been a bonus if it was good at carpet cleaning, I need an all rounder so if there is any polite advice ill be willing to thank you for it

DT,
No disprespect intended. Trouble is you've mentioned a machine that is a joke as far as professional carpet cleaning is concerned, but then perhaps you weren't to know that.

i think he's a tacca member got to the event too early and he's been drinking since breakfast. he's gone from carpet cleaning to gutter cleaning to hoovering up builders rubble all with a tonka toy.

 :-\ ;D

Anything worth looking at will do one thing or the other. Do you want a sports car or a lorry? Kit is designed to do a job properly and most can't do two or more very different things.
Sucking carpets and sucking gutters are two very different jobs.

Decent wet / dry vacuum try Numatic WVD900 all purpose machine more than capable as a gutter vacuum. I have seen them advertised for less than £300 bargain... as for the George use it for cleaning your office!

For carpet cleaning buy a portable designed for CC
