Kenmore KW4070 Pet Portable Carpet Cleaner with High Cleaning Power, 3.2L Clean Tank & 1.4L Dirty Tank, 25ft Cord Length and Two Easy Removable Brushroll for Rug & Upholstery

Wow! This did an amazing job. It just got my carpets as clean as the $300 the commercial cleaner charged. Also like how it comes apart for cleaning after use. It more than paid for itself in just one use. Highly recommend.

I'd give this machine 10 stars if it were possible!! Of the 3 different carpet washers, this one is the best! I owned a Dirt Devil carpet cleaner. It did a better than the water system attachments for my Rainbow Cleaner. The suction was better, but it required additional upper body effort to extract the solution. The wet system for my Rainbow was very narrow and didn't have wheels on it and required even more upper body effort. My shoulder would hurt for days after I was done. The Kenmore KW4070 is amazing. I counted out the 9 capfuls of cleaning solution into a measuring cup. It comes up to 1/3 Cup. That saves you time when you go filling the clean solution container. The machine is so easy to set up and disassemble for clean-up. I love that the lid that covers the rollers comes out completely, so you can clean it well. My Dirt Devil and Rainbow wash system didn't do that. It always looked gross. I still use my Rainbow cleaner for vacuuming. I love the water canister that never loses suction. I also get great satisfaction on seeing what it really does through the see-through cannister. I vacuumed all the carpet really well with the Rainbow before washing. That water alone was horrendous!!! I worked on the perimeter carpet next to the molding using the 6" attachment. It worked a charm! After doing the perimeters, then I washed the carpet. I was in disbelief how filthy the carpet was. Whenever I've washed carpet my whole life, I've always gone back over it with a clear-water rinse. So, each of the rooms were done twice. I don't want soap dried in carpet. I believe the residue draws more dust and dirt in the future. The 'rinse water' was a lighter dirt color with additional foam. The extractor is so efficient that the carpet was dry in about 3.5 hours...max! I still have 2 rooms, 5 dining room chairs, 2 recliners, the basement, and the basement stairs to do. This machine has more than paid for itself already. If you tally the entire job, it would have cost me well over $700. The professionals charge around $15.00 per stair...alone. There is one concession. I wish the dirty water tank held more fluid. I look forward to my first vaccuming with the Rainbow to see the complete analysis. The carpet you see is 28 years old! It may not look great, but it is in very good condition. This is the best it's going to get. No shoes allowed rule over the entire time. It's my mom's condo. I can't replace it yet. UPDATE 1/21/2025: i finished all the jobs previously mentioned except for the stairs and basement. The machine has already paid for itself. I Googled the going rate for professional carpet cleaners. It would cost me over $700 just for the upstairs cleaning. They charge per square foot. The pictures I posted are the ivory carpet throughout the condo. This carpet was put down in 1996 when my dad had the place built. The 2nd picture of the variegated taupes is the breakfast nook. I took the picture so you could see a before/after comparison. That carpet is 3 years old. As you can see the difference in the portion at the bottom after cleaning, with the top still needing to be done. The machine restored the carpet to what it looked like when it was placed November 2021.

I have used every brand of carpet cleaner and solution on the market. The kenmore so far has been the best. Easily to use and clean. I have never had this type of deep clean before. The cleaning solution is also the best. It removes deep down stains and odors. I have 4 dogs and 4 cats in my house (yes I know I am ceazy) and this is the cleanest my carpet has ever been.

I have low-grained carpeting that has not been professionally cleaned in over 25 years, (other than my own on-my-knees spot scrubbing). For decades, I have researched for feasibly priced machines, and seeing as I live in an apt. bldg. I couldn't imagine needing to deep wash the carpets again. However, with this baby and its extension hose and mini carpet nozzles I have cleaned our cat tree, sofa cushions, even the mattress. The emptying and filling of the water receptacles are not cumbersome to handle. I am very happy with this Kenmore and recommend it to everyone.

I've gotten some good use out of this, and overall I think it cleans well and has nice options given the size and price. You do sort of need to get the hang out using it to get the best clean, and to get a thorough clean you won't get more than maybe an 8x8 sized space done, so I would go with something larger if you plan to use this often or want to do large areas each time you use it. But, for smaller areas or the occasional larger area with a few fill ups, this works great. The attachment is pretty good as well and nice to be able to do both larger quicker upright cleaning and spot cleaning with the attachment. Only reason for 4 stars is it's not the greatest clean, but I don't know if you'd get much better without spending a lot more.
