Dirt Devil FD50300 Full Size Carpet Washer Cleaner, Black/White

I have had and used several brands of carpet cleaners over the years, and this one is, by far, the simplest one to operate. It was a piece of cake to put together and this weekend I put it through it's paces. Let me tell you, it was a pleasure (well as much as shampooing rugs can be, lol) to use. Sadly, this was a replacement for a different brand I had purchased a few months ago which turned out disastrously. The other one not only leaked horribly and did a sub par job, but also required a degree in engineering to clean after use, and was annoyingly difficult to change out either tank. Total fail, in my book. This one, on the other hand, is amazingly simple to remove and refill or empty the tanks and clean up is a breeze. It does leak a smidge if left in one spot for a while, but that seems to be pretty typical of all of these home cleaners. Probably just moisture collecting on the bottom plus a little left in the machine while in regular use. Just be sure to run it over any resting spot before moving on. It is all plastic, so not uber sturdy, but it is pretty lightweight and it sucks up most of the water it puts down, so it doesn't take long for your carpets to dry. There are two settings. Deep clean (normal amount of water) and Quick clean (less water). The clean water tank isn't huge, but since adding more water is super easy, it's not really a problem. And the collection tank is a bit larger, so you don't have to empty it as often as you are refilling the other. And, of course, it does a great job of, you know, cleaning, which is after all its most important feature. However, for me, another critical point is whether or not it's another whole ordeal to disassemble and clean once finished. Let's face it, nobody likes to clean their carpet, and once you are done you want nothing more than to put that sucker up and move on, right? Luckily, this baby is the easiest one to clean up afterwards I've ever had. The dirty water tank has zero nooks and crannies that are impossible to reach. It's just fill and vigorously swish. That's it! The only place I noticed holding on to grunge was the around the filter gasket, and I just ran a dull edge around it under water and that took care of it. A good wipe down of the undercarriage and brush and you are free to get back to your life. It ain't fancy but it sure gets the job done in the quickest amount of time with the least amount of aggravation. Mind you, if that changes, I will update my review, but so far so good!

I love this! It definitely does the job for my thick carpet. Haven’t tried the Normal setting yet which is deep cleaning but so far with the quick setting I can see the before and after difference. Good item for your buck. Highly recommend it if you’re into diy rather than hiring someone to clean your carpet!

This machine is the far but BEST. So much better than the BISSELL that the motor burns out after using it for a couple of mths to a year. I highly recommend this Dirt Devil 😈
