It's hard work and LOUD

I have a system so I don't get the carpets too wet

do 3 passes with shampoo then go to another spot and do 3 passes there, then go back to the first as it's had a little time to soak and draw up the shampoo, I do at least 10 passes and very slowly to get as much water and dirt out as I can

I found a tank of water shampoo mix ( about 1.5 litres) will do about 1.5 m sq

sometimes I just do the walk in areas where the carpets are dustiest

    Yeah, that’s a good system. This one is a little awkward though as you’re meant to pull it back while pressing the trigger to spray the shampoo then stop and push it forward to suck the solution back up. So I’d kind of have to carry it around so the shampoo could sit or walk backwards in S shapes.

    I really wanted one of those steam cleaners you see in home reno videos with a wide steam blade and long handle but couldn’t find that type
