MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Two dogs and muddy winter have taken their toll 😐
Had a look at the Vax Rapide range but they are a bit more than I was looking to spend. It's a rented house and a relatively small area (20sq.m) that needs cleaned and IME the hire ones aren't all that great
Any ideas/recommendations appreciated.
the rug doctor ones we've hired seem ok
You have dogs and a bike so pointless hiring one as you'll need its services again and again so not financially viable IMO. B&Q sell an orange one (£50) thats been perfect for us.
Get a man in
If the rug doctor ones are not good enough then its new carpets time.
Problem with that is I'd have to have him (oooeerr) every month.Get a man in
As Hora suggested, I've found one at B&Q for £31.48 but couldn't find any orange ones.
Thanks Hora, I'm going to have to abuse you more often if it makes you this helpful 😉
Woody 'abuse me' ......ooo matron.
I paid £40 for mine (no box but new). Cant remember the brand name but it comes with a bottle of shampoo and cleaned years of dirt immediately off our carpets.
Excellent. You'll need it even more very shortly 😆
Robert Dyas are selling VAX ones for about £80. £140 everywhere else.
Hmmm The Vax do get good reviews and £80 is good. Decisions, decisions !
We have a George and its been superb.
Georges are good but a lot more than I want to spend.
I've found the rugdoctor hired ones to be great
