Are you thinking of buying a new carpet cleaner?  If you plan to, here are some things you can consider for your carpet cleaner. 

Brand Name

When buying a carpet cleaner, many look for brand names. It is good to get a reliable and trusted name in a carpet cleaner. This way, you can be assured of buying a quality product. Many brands have long been around.  They know carpet cleaners inside out. That is why these brands ensure that they offer a product that is durable and value-for-money.  The well-known brands usually offer better warranty for their product

Sample brands of carpet cleaners are Hoover, Rug Doctor, Bissell, and Vax. 

Features and Accessories

Carpet cleaners differ in terms of features. That is why before you buy one, you have to check the features also. Some are very basic ones. But there are more that offer. You can choose based on features that are important for you.  Not all consumers prefer the same features. 

 Loaded with features do not necessarily mean it’s the best. But you have to see if those features matter to you. After all, more and better features come with a higher price tag.  See and compare the different products according to your preference. 

Carpet cleaners also come with their own set of accessories, like brushes.  Some carpet cleaners have one tank, others two. The advantage of having two tanks is it separates the container for the water and cleaning solution.

There are carpet cleaners that have a carrying handle, which makes it easier to bring around. Some models have dry-only settings. This feature sucks up more water than makes drying faster. 

The length of the hoses also differ. Others have a 61-inch hose, while some can be as long as 155 inches. When you buy, choose a length that you think is right for the area you need to clean.

Weight 

Carpet cleaners can be heavy too. It even becomes heavier when the tank becomes full during cleaning. Thus, many products highlight the weight of the carpet cleaner.  Though products claim ‘lightweight,’ it is still best if you can see the fine details. Check the actual weight. What can be heavy to another may be light to another person or vice versa. So we suggest testing the product itself. If you can test carry it on the store, the better for you.   This way, you know you won’t have a hard time carrying around the carpet cleaner to vacuum the entire place. 

Noise Level 

Carpet cleaners can be loud. On average, a vacuum cleaner produces up to 70 decibels of noise. Carpet cleaners are even noisier! It can reach up to around 80 decibels of noise. In actuality, an increase of 10 is very high and it means the noise is much louder. 

Thus, when choosing a carpet cleaner, check the noise level the product produces. Some claim they are relatively less in terms of noise. 

Otherwise, what’s best is that you have to wear earplugs to protect your hearing. This is particularly recommended for an extended or long period of cleaning.

Cleaning Time

It is not so easy to clean a carpet. You need to move furniture or other things on top of the carpet. You can now vacuum after. Then, fill the machine with water and a cleaning solution. 

Using the carpet cleaner is like using a vacuum. You also have to push and pull it to arm’s length. When pulling out, you have to continue squeezing the trigger. 

For the dry cycle, you need to release the trigger. After this, you can now follow the same steps. You can repeat the wet and dry passes to ensure the carpet is thoroughly clean. 

Before you put the carpet back and items on top of it, make sure it is completely dry.  After that, unplug the machine. Remove the debris and clean the tank. 

A lot of things to do right? That is why many carpet cleaners also promise ease of use and cleaning of the tank.  You can check out the details of how to use the carpet cleaner you intend to buy. Some have easy push buttons to make cleaning faster. 

Price 

Many factors determine the price of a carpet cleaner. One is the brand name. Some brands position themselves as premium. It may be because they have also been around for decades to claim superiority over other brands. 
Features also dictate the price. Automatic and intelligent carpet cleaners are priced higher. 

Lastly, the retailer selling the carpet cleaners can also dictate the pricing. Many stores offer discounts and promotions.  Be sure to check them out on canvas.  You can also look for an expert carpet cleaner in Morley to help you.
