    • The best carpet cleaner, from a dog owner
I have owned a number of carpet cleaners and owned and used this one for 4 months before writing the review. I would definitely recommend this machine, no matter what cost level or system you are considering. Don't waste your money on a spot machine, expensive or cheap machine, just get a machine that is versatile; and this machine is. It is easy to use, but before you do, make sure you read the simple instructions. Tgis will ensure you understand how to use the machine versus the spot cleaner. Benefits of this machine- *spot cleaner-easy to use, does an excellent job and easy clean-up. The brush is rubber rather than bristles. When using this part of the machine, you only have to clean-up the spot unit, rather than the entire system, which is a big plus. Suction is very strong, leaving the carpet only lightly damp, allowing it to dry quickly. *Carpet system-light weight and easy to move. NO TRIGGER TO HOLD FOR SOAP DISPENSING!!!! Excellent suction leaving the carpet lightly damp. Therefore, no need to run fans to dry the carpet. Excellent area run cleaning. I can clean the area rugs, leaving it on the wood floor during cleaning and drying with no concern of soaking the through the rug and impacting the flooring. Cleaning up the system, is easy and you are able to remove all parts to clean up for the next use. The cleaning product has a very pleasant scent and does an excellent job. Downfalls, *the water tanks could be larger, *the initial cleaning solution provided could be larger. *Replacement of cleaning solution is not cheap and the availability is limited. Order some when you buy the machine. *the spot cleaner hose and unit storage is a bit annoying as it falls off often. Overall, I will tolerate the tank sizes, cleaning solution cost and the spot cleaning hose coming unattached for the superior job the system does!!!!! ... show more

    • Exceeds My Needs - Another Shark Product Added To My Lineup!
Packaged and arrived as expected. No appearance of previous use or a returned item. I love Shark products and while I didn't want a full size carpet cleaner - ultimately this was a solid choice to take care of more than just spot cleaning. Assembled easily, works flawlessly, has cleaned all the carpet in my house and lifted the light pet stains with ease. I've had zero issue with it's cleaning ability and I love the options to switch the cleaning feature. No leaking (as I've experienced with previously owned home carpet cleaners) so that is a huge plus for me. While the dirty return tank doesn't have a massive capacity, it hasn't created any issues and is incredibly easy to clean out real quick and return to the job. Overall, I'm happy with this purchase and considering my low expectations from owning previous carpet steam cleaners, it is safe to say this one has raised the bar for me. ... show more

    • This is made for older people! It’s ez, light and can be done in a day.!👍
This carpet cleaner was made for older people. If carpets are already vacuumed, can be cleaned in a day. It’s ez, light and suction is great! No more waiting days for carpet to dry, or putting rugs down, in winter. Drys in 1 day, even if started at night. Love it!

    • My Shark Carpet Shampooer
I love it! The attachment works great, very convenient storing option when not in use. The hand held was a must have! So easy to operate, cleans well, not to wet so it dries quick. Since it is light weight it makes the dirty job all the easier. But tanks are a little small.

    • Shark Carpet Shampooer
I absolutely love this machine!! It is so easy to use, and what a difference from all other machines!! I am absolutely pleased with the results. It pairs extremely well with the Shark vacuum too. There is no hair or hairballs upon washing at all, letting me know the Shark vacuum is superior to all other vacuums as well!! There is no guess work on how much solution to put on your carpet, and no guess work on how much you are pulling back out of your carpet. The Shark has covered all your needs. I also love the cleaning products that came with the machine. They do an excellent job and they smell so fresh and clean.😃 Shark has exceptional products! I will never waist my money on any other machine again!! ... show more

    • Read the Instructions and Watch the Videos
There are some videos on You Tube that are put out by Shark on how to set the machine up and take it apart and put it back together and another one on how to clean it and another one on how to use it. Take the time to watch all of these and know the machine and how to take it apart and put it back together before you start and you will avoid some problems. You never know when you read reviews if people took the time to do that before they ran into problems. I did that and I can say that for the price this is a very good machine and the company seems to have thought of everything. It cleans pretty well and it is amazing how much dirt is sucks out of the carpet. Some things I encountered on first use. It came in handy to know how to take the brush roller out because I sucked up some yard from a frayed edge of the carpet and had to take it apart and clean it out. Very easy if you know how. I bumped into something and the machine turned off and wouldn't work. I saw that the plastic cover on the roller had come loose and I fixed that and was back in business. You have to tilt the machine to get the mode buttons to work and don't forget to turn the lever to switch to the hose. I was glad I bought more solution because the machine doesn't come with enough to clean an entire room so you need the bigger bottles. You don't have to fill the deep cleaning solution tank all the way but can fill it part way and then refill as needed. But the other solution which you mix in water you will go through quickly. And, yes you need to buy both solutions. Do not use vinegar or anything else but water in the machine. And watch the cleaning video. It is very easy to clean the parts when you already know how. And the power button takes a few seconds to shut off after you press it so don't keep pressing it. Overall well worth the money. I imagine if you have a dog the pet mess attachment would be a huge plus. ... show more
