My Dyson NEVER DID THIS! Vax Compact Power Carpet Washer / Hoover PowerDash Pet After 8 Months 🤮

I thought my carpets were very clean, the Dyson V8 stick vacuum does a really good job. But once I put the Vax Compact Power Carpet Washer over our 3 carpets I was astonished how much filth it was able to remove from the carpets. The water collection tank had black gunk with pet & carpet lint.
This machine is a compact style model which holds 1lt of fluid. I had to do 3 resets of the machine to clean our carpets. It's a very easy machine to clean out and reset. The amount of cleaning fluid required is minimal. I have owned Vax Compact Power Carpet Washer for 8 months and each time I clean the carpets I notice the amount of gunk lifted from the carpet is less.
In the strangest way I did find a Bissell Redi Clean PowerBrush Pet thrown out as rubbish. This Carpet Shampooer looked to be in very good condition and isn't very old. I took it home and find that it stills works. I will investigate this at some point in the future.
Carpet Vacuum Shampoo machines are something you wouldn't use weekly. This smaller style of Vacuum is suited for high traffic areas and isolated stains. But doing a bigger job can be done if your prepared to keep refilling the water tank and emptying out the dirty water. There is a small filter that's easy to clean out and removing hair and carpet fibre from the roller is not difficult. And maybe the secret to keeping these styles of machines working is to keep on top of the dirt and hair that can get trapped around the roller.
I'm very happy with my Vax Compact Power Carpet Washer more so because I paid $173 for it and not the $550 that was being asked on Amazon for the Hoover Powerdash Pet which is an identical Carpet Shampooer.

Thanks to NewBeanMeister22 for his simple reviews of the Hoover PowerDash Pet that had me investigate the deep bunnyhole of Carpet Vacuum Cleaners. If you're going to purchase one of these machines exercise EXTREME buyer beware. It took a long time to make this video, I get no money from Hoover, Dyson, Vax or have any affiliate links with kickbacks. I paid for the products you see in the video with my own money. So basically a total waste of time doing this video on YouTube.

I read the reviews of the Vax compact online tonight and they were mostly great. The carpet in my bedroom was disgusting, the house is only one year old but in my bedroom doorway the carpet looked like it had 30 years of dirt. I shampooed my carpet at 1 am this morning and I couldn't be happier. The Vax did an amazing job. I couldn't recommend it more highly.

I love to see this guy still going, and i love it.

To give an idea on how ridiculous some prices are, my dad purchased 2 items for $2 each for a total of $4 but the postage cost $14. The whole family then got into numerous conversations about this silly pricing.

Heya. Just rewatching your old video's. Loved them.
-
Hi! I’ve been watching you since you started doing the Thomas and Friends trackmaster videos! You make ABSOLUTELY GREAT content! Keep it up!
-
These carpet cleaners are a lifesaver. Especially in carpeted homes with pets
-
word of advice for these: when you're moving along cleaning, don't make any sudden jolts (this is for ANY carpet cleaning machine) as long as you move slowly to prevent a random splash of dirty water getting sucked into the motor before the float can engage....it can cause the motor to rust...as long as you're careful and not jerking the machine around as you use it... it should be fine.

This is a really cool video, unusual for a channel like yours but really helpful and interesting!

Hey Leo, I’ve an old (probably 20 year old) Bissel Aromapro, and its still going However be aware, that they need a rinse with clean water after use to stop the detergent clogging up the pump. I had the pump go about 5 years ago, (took it to be repaired) and they mentioned most people just throw them away but Bissel have a service team and at least in eu/uk technicians who repair them.

Leo I know you may not see this since its been four months, but I've just gotta say I love your channel I discovered it about 10 years ago when I was sort of 'into' locomotives. I understand losing somebody can be hard so just take your time.

-

-
I see you often on music videos, you have amazing taste! I've seen you mostly on Paul McCartney's channel.
-
Hey, although you did a shorts, what are the vacuums in your dyson collection that actually work, I am just curious to see what people throw out that still work.

After 3 bissels breaking down I bought one of these. Brilliant job and still going strong after a few years and I use it often! Recently it wasn’t sucking dirty water up well enough and it was impossible to get that little filter out at the back. But it actually popped out a few days ago and using it since it’s removing dirty water and solution beautifully. Also… instead of pulling out the brushes to clean out mountains of fur I take it outside. Wind up the cord lie it on its side and with the hose on high pressure blast out the roller brush filth😂😂😂. So far I haven’t ruined it and it’s working as well as the day I bought it. Also….. to save on solution… I sometimes spray a strong mixture over an entire room.. leave it a few minutes and wash as usual with just hot water in the tank. Nifty thrifty!
