I've been using mine for awhile and have been quite pleased. After several uses, I've noticed a substantial color-shade difference between the carpet this has been used on and the carpet it has not been used on.
One of the great features about this unit is that it has the option to turn the ProHeat on or off. This is great for those of us with lots of rugs that cannot have hot water used on them. This cleaner has done a much better job on my rugs than on my carpet. I suspect it has something to do with the padding under the carpet, but I'm not sure. Some of my 20-yr old rugs look brand new after one use of this. I think part of it is that the suction is so substantial on this that while it is sucking up the solution, it actually yanks out a lot of the loose fibers that were making my rugs look a little tattered and frayed. They look great now.
I've used the spot cleaners around my car and it has done a great job, aside from the work this cleaner has done on my rugs, the ability to clean my car, myself, has been one of the great features. Makes it so easy to clean coffee spills, etc. out of the seats and floor carpets.
As for my home carpet, I still feel that professional cleaners do a better job, but for a home unit, this will work well if you use it a few times. Don't expect it to look professionally cleaned after only one use, especially if it has been a long time since your last carpet cleaning.
This unit is very heavy for me. I had to have my husband help me lug it up and down the stairs. The weight is something to consider if you aren't very strong and would need help toting it around your house. All-in-all, I'm very pleased. It's the best home unit I've ever used.
