    • Deep Clean Results and Fresh Smell – Works Great in Carpet Cleaners!
Style: modern
This carpet shampoo works really well! I used it in my carpet cleaner and it left the carpet looking noticeably fresher and cleaner after just one pass. It helped lift out dirt and some old stains I didn’t think would come up, and it left a light, clean scent that isn’t overpowering. A little goes a long way since it’s a concentrate, which makes it a great value. I would definitely buy this again for routine carpet cleaning and spot refreshes ... show more

I originally picked it up because I wanted something effective but not overwhelming in scent, and it ended up exceeding my expectations in every way. First off, performance - this stuff really delivers. I used it with my Shark CarpetXpert machine, and the combination worked incredibly well. One thing I really appreciate is how concentrated it is. You don’t need to use a ton of product to get great results, which makes it last a long time. That’s a big deal if you clean your carpets regularly or have pets like I do. It feels like you’re getting professional-level cleaning without burning through a bottle in a few uses. Now let’s talk about the scent, because this is where it really stands out for me. It has a fresh citrus smell that’s clean and light. It does tend to have a bit of a chemical smell on top of the citrus at first but that doesn't last. A lot of carpet shampoos I’ve tried either smell too strong during use or leave behind this heavy, perfumey scent that lingers for days. This one is different. It smells great while you’re cleaning, but once the carpet dries, the scent fades nicely and doesn’t hang around in an overwhelming way. Your space just smells fresh and clean, not like you dumped a bottle of fragrance everywhere. Another thing I noticed is how clean the carpets feel after drying. There’s no sticky or crunchy residue and the fibers feel soft and refreshed, they don’t seem to attract dirt again right away—which tells me it’s not leaving behind anything that would cause re-soiling. Overall, I’m genuinely impressed. Between the strong cleaning performance, the compatibility with my Shark CarpetXpert, the long-lasting concentrate, and that perfectly balanced citrus scent, this has become my go-to carpet cleaner. If you want something effective, easy to use, and not overpowering, this is absolutely worth it. Five stars without hesitation. ... show more

    • Great carpet cleaner
Style: modern
If you’re looking for a deep cleaning carpet shampoo that tackles dirt and stains without costing a fortune, Zep’s lineup of carpet shampoo products is worth considering. These concentrated solutions are designed to work in carpet cleaning machines whether at home or in rental extractors and they deliver a noticeable improvement in carpet appearance with relatively little effort. Cleaning Power: This shampoo penetrates deep into carpet fibers and lifts embedded dirt, food stains, and pet messes effectively. Many users report that their carpets look fresh and revitalized after a single machine pass, with a fresher smell and minimal residue left behind when properly rinsed. Value & Coverage: One of the biggest perks is the concentrated formula a small amount goes a long way, and a gallon can make up to about 25 gallons of cleaning solution. That makes it economical for large areas or multiple rooms, especially compared to pricier brands. Ease of Use: When used in carpet cleaning machines (steam extractors, home extractors, etc.), Zep shampoo lathers just enough without excessive foam, helping the machine perform smoothly. Follow the dilution instructions and machine guidelines for best results. Appearance & Scent: After cleaning, carpets usually look brighter, and many users appreciate the generally pleasant, clean scent. It’s not overpowering, though some people are sensitive to stronger chemical odors during application. ... show more

    • Works Really Well—Noticeable Difference After One Use
Style: modern
I used this with a carpet cleaning machine and was honestly impressed with how much dirt and buildup it lifted, especially in high-traffic areas. The carpets looked noticeably cleaner and fresher, even after just one round. It’s easy to dilute and use, and one gallon goes a long way. I used less than I expected to cover a full living room. The scent is light and clean, not overpowering or perfumey, and it didn’t leave any weird residue behind. Stains didn’t vanish completely (some older ones faded but didn’t disappear), but overall, this made the carpets look brighter and less dingy, which was exactly what I needed. For the price and size, this is a great value, especially if you do your own carpet cleaning regularly. I’ll definitely be keeping this on hand for the next deep clean. ... show more

    • Works well, but do not like the smell
Style: modern
I ordered this, and a bottle of the high traffic area cleaner; which you shouldn't use in a carpet cleaner, cause it foams a lot, but I wasn't sure how the all purpose would work, so didn't want to take any chances..The carpet cleaner I normally use, must be out of stock or something, because when I got on my account to see what time it was going to be delivered, saw the delivery date was changed to another few weeks away, when I needed it that day.. So I needed to order something else too.. It cleans ok as far as carpet cleaners go, I'm not sure if it's suppose to be cloudy or not, because it seemed to have been opened already when recieved..But I really doubt I will ever buy this brand again for regular use.. The Smell is over powering with a Soapy, Commercial Smell to it..Hopefully will fade when it dries, but because of that, chances are I won't use it in the house again; so stuck with 2 gallons of Carpet Cleaners I likely won't use again; unless in another emergency like I bought it for in the first place..The price was right for having to order another product when I only bought it because Amazon decided to change my delivery dates last minute.. ... show more
