Swan Dirtmaster SC17310N Carpet Cleaner, Lightweight Wet Cleaner for Carpets, Rugs and Car Seats, Deep Cleaning with Stain Removal, Refreshes and Neutralises lingering Pet Odours, Black

I previous owned a well know brand, of carpet cleaner but after reading lots of reviews I decided to go for the Swan cleaner. And I am so glad I did, this is honestly brilliant, super easy to set up, easy to use light weight, and easy to clean. The suction and cleaning power is excellent. It also has a great attachment for cleaning stairs, sofas etc which gives super results. When I had another brand, you could never take the suction part of were all the dirt accumulated from the carpets but with this it just comes off, allowing you to easily clean it. Plus the brush that glides over the carpet also removes easily for cleaning. The tank itself is smaller than most big brand cleaners, but to me that is no problem. After all you are getting something that cleans to perfection, and I highly reccomend it. The cleaning solution is perfect to giving lovely fresh smell, with super results. So anyone wanting good priced carpet cleaner I highly reccomend the swan pro carpet cleaner.

I bought this cleaner because we have several rugs on tiled floors and I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on a cleaner just for rugs.Firstly cleaning rugs and carpets isn’t a quick job. You need to plan. Need a dry warm day preferably with a light breeze.Cleaner is very lightweight and easy to assemble.Filling the water tank is a bit fiddly as you have to turn it upside down and it does not stand upright on its own so needs to be supported while filling.Cleaning effectiveness depends very much in your carpet or rug. On cleaning an old rug where the pile is uneven and compacted, it was much more difficult to remove excess water. On a newer rug it worked much better.Method - you have to be patient and work systematically. Moving backwards and forwards over the same spot you can see how much water is being pulled back from the surface. Move on when you see very little water.I found the shampoo solution very strong so I reduced the amount to 25ml to 1 litre of water. This was enough to clean 2 large rugs and a door mat.It removed a lot of dirt and left the rug smelling clean. This is not a one off job, you jeed to repeat every few months although this is difficult in winter.After care - Emptying the remaining water in tank was easy but drying it out is not. I left it on a windowsill without the stopper all afternoon to dry.Emptying the dirty water is very simple. Again drying it out is not easy, I left it out to dry like the water tank. The two sponge filters trapped a lot of fluff and dirt so need to be removed and cleaned. There was a lot of silt around the seals of the water intake areas so needs to be cleaned.The very front of the machie where the water is sucked up cannot be removed. This makes it very difficult to clean out the silt that gets trapped. What a shame they couldn’t design this to be removed with a simple clip to rinse it. I hand to lie the machine on each side while pouring a jug of water back through the opening to remove silt. Left to dry in the sun.CONCLUSIONAll in all it does the job but if I had a house with fitted carpets I would buy something much more robust.Some very simple design changes could make after care much easier. If it hadn’t been for that I would have rated 5 stars.Basic cleaner for a basic price. Happy with my purchase for my purpose.

I've gone through a lot of similar cleaners over the years having a large outdoors type family + 9 grandkids who all keep animals, dogs, rabbits, sheep, horses etc and pop in regularly + my own 3 dogs, so a lot of the outdoors comes indoors here, and the very best I could say about any of my past machines is they made a slight difference, the one I paid the most for, over £300 was the worst, very heavy and the spot cleaner had NO suction ....THIS on the other hand is BRILLIANT...I've gone all o.c.d with it...the living room which I did only last week with my old one came up a treat with this, even though it's an18 or old carpet ....I did the stairs and landing next they haven't had much attention thanks to disappointing attachments...they look lovely now ....being so pleased with the spot cleaner on the stairs I thought I'd see how it would cope with car seats and carpets , well I'm quite ashamed of how much dirt came from our car....but it is now a sight to behold...I had a little shampoo left in the tank when I'd finished so used it on a rug in the dining room , i hadn't thought that was too bad but the colours are certainly brighter now .....it's really easy to use too and there are no filters that keep clogging up, the dirt goes straight in the tank , brushes agitate the carpet fibres to release more dirt instead of just rolling and sucking .....but my favourite is the spot cleaner, wow does that shift some grime......I must admit I did use a stiff brush to help loosen horrid stuff worn into the car carpets but they're so clean now they'll never get in that state again, I am so impressed with this machine it has to be a 5 star review........would I reccomend....well....DERRR !!!! ......I'm starting on the bedrooms next..🙄...😂🤣😂...defo ..o.c.d.

Excellent machine. Easy to assemble and cleans well. Very happy with my purchase.
