Change of plans on the Anko steam spot cleaner, I returned it after seeing that you couldn’t use the steam function with the long telescopic attachment and the larger nozzle. That’s only for spills on hard floors and windows which are not what I needed it for.

Machine looked great for the price and I expected to have to put some extra time and patience in using something labeled as a spot cleaner. I might have kept it even using the little brush nozzle. But I wasn’t doing the entire carpets hunched over with a tiny handheld.

I got a cheap HEPA vacuum because my cheap stick is starting to fall apart, and will just have to constantly vacuum until I sort out and save for a proper steam cleaner.

    you don't need a steam cleaner, just a normal carpet cleaner using very hot water and special cleaners is good enough

    Thanks. I just can’t find the special cleaners. I’ve been searching but can’t find which one I’m meant to use

    JB Hi Fi do click and collect on carpet shampoo https://www.jbhifi.com.au/collections/home-appliances/bissell

    that stuff lasts for ages as you only have to use about 30 ml in the hot water at a time. You can't use more as then the machine with over flow with bubbles

    I would personally go in store to JB and bargain for $50 off the cleaner and shampoo together
