Anyone hired a Rug Doctor?


Yep - they're good, if not rather heavy.

The web site video suggests that the carpet will dry within 2 hours - is
this accurate?

Depends - in todays Southeastern heat it might. Normally, because I had to
scrub the sh*t out of mine (babies) it would take most of the day.

How close to the skirting boards can you get?

Couple of inches - you can use the hand tool if you need to get right up
close.


The video skips over cleaning around the edges.

I have used Vax carpet cleaners and similar which are reasonably effective
- how much better is the Rug Doctor?

Anything to watch out for, or better alternatives?

If you have bad marks such as dropped food or grease, it's best to get the
spot cleaner spray too and zapo some of that on. I used fairly warm water
too which helped.
