Advantages: It works a bit

Disadvantages: not great

Our carpets always are in need of a good clean and I didn't want to keep paying to hire a carpet cleaning machine so thought I'd try one of these cleaning products you can just buy off the shelf.

This one cost £2 and was one of the cheapest and so I wasn't expecting great things from it.

I chose it because it was cheap really. The bottle is bright purple so stands out. It is comfortable enough to hold although at times when squeezing the lever I found that my hand that was holding the bottle would get a bit irritated- when the lever moved down it would catch the top of my hand a little which was irritating and so I had to keep repositioning where i held it.

I sprayed the carpet where it was stained and then followed the directions to give it a good scrub.

EVentually when it dried I hoovered over the area and the carpet did look a little better but it hadn't removed the mark completely and I do know that a more expensive carpet cleaning machine would have done a much better job.

The smell was nice and fresh which left my house smelling clean but not too strong so that it would smell as though I was masking something.

All in all it worked a little bit but not as much as I would have liked. I think for £2 I can't really complain so at least it worked a little but in future I will be more likely to just hire out a machine, for the odd little stain though it will suffice. Available from sainsbury's in the cleaning aisle.
