I really liked this floor cleaner but I would return it if I could. I've used two others in the past and had good experiences. I tried this cleaner and it made the carpet very damp. The next time I used it, I made sure to follow the directions to make sure I wasn't doing anything. Same result. I have used the cleaner 3 times and although the carpet is clean I feel it is too damp. I think it doesn't pick up all the dirt and water like it should. The carpet dries for 2 full days.
