9 best tools for carpet cleaning

In the first place in the ranking of the best carpet cleaner, we put an inexpensive domestic tool that received a maximum of positive emotions and a minimum of complaints from users. "5+" can be used in a diluted (foam) and undiluted (as a stain remover) form. This shampoo cleans most common stains and has the best price-performance ratio.

This is a domestic liquid product, but when dissolved in water it gives a lush foam that needs to be applied to the surface, left to dry and remove the residue with a vacuum cleaner. According to reviews, the Drop dissolves any dirt and does not require rinsing with water, saving time and energy of the hostess. Works well even without tedious mashing, leaves unsharp pleasant aroma.

A good remedy that can replace more expensive products. Apply it as a stain remover: spray on dirty areas and wipe with a sponge. In addition to surfactants, the composition added components for more effective removal of complex stains, so it is recommended to use it only for the purpose, work in gloves, carefully vacuum the surface and ventilate the room after cleaning.

Vanish is a popular and quite effective tool that helps to quickly clean the carpet. This is a classic carpet shampoo that needs to be dissolved in water, lather and wash the foam with a sponge / brush. The old stains will not remove Vanish from the first time, but it will cope with fresh dirt and dust perfectly, remove odors and refresh carpet colors. In comparison with the leaders of the rating, Vanish has a number of flaws that did not allow him to take first place.

Active additives Udalix (enzymes, oxygen-containing bleach) penetrate the depth of the pile and help clean the carpet from dirt, dust, grease stains, tea, coffee, sauces, herbs, and pet life products. However, to completely get rid of complex stains, it may require more than one cleaning, since this tool does not work wonders. Experienced housewives say that you can make a cleaning paste from Udalyksa for difficult stains, but if you even try this advice, then only on an inconspicuous stretch of carpet.

And again, an inexpensive product that does its job well. The spray remover removes even very complex and “ancient” stains. True, it is necessary to work hard: despite the abundant foam that Kovrol gives, without rubbing with a sponge or brush, the stain will not move away. The product is intended for “spot” application on stains, it is too tiring to handle the entire carpet, and the product is washed off for a C grade.

Who said that using soap for cleaning carpets is already unfashionable? And if this is an effective soap, designed to scrub the most persistent and stubborn stains on all types of fabrics? Antipyatin is a universal stain remover that helps where other remedies recede.Spots from food, grass, felt-tip pens, Zelenka, iodine - Antipyatin easily handles them both on carpets and on furniture upholstery. Apply it in the old manner: rub the most "harmful" pollution with a wet soap and leave it for some time, then wash it off with water.

Powder Vanish Oxi Action received conflicting reviews from housewives for one reason - it gets clogged in a long nap and fabric upholstery of furniture and is difficult to remove from them. But to clean the carpet and thin flooring is a good tool. Powder is easy to use (distribute with a brush, wait 20 minutes, vacuum). It contains micro-sponges that absorb dirt and are completely removed from the surface with a vacuum cleaner. It does not relieve stains (and this is indicated on the label); it is recommended to treat them with a stain remover before applying the powder.

Active foams are not very respected by hostesses due to their high cost, high consumption and poor efficiency. But we decided to include Nordland foam in our rating, of course, warning about its shortcomings. It is suitable for cleaning and freshening carpets with high and medium pile, penetrates deep into the surface and is completely removed even from thick carpets with a vacuum cleaner. Contains only surfactants, salt and blowing agents, 90% biodegradable. But this foam has a big disadvantage - at a considerable cost it does not remove resistant dirt.
