Between dogs, kids, and grandkids, and life itself, it seems I am always cleaning up some sort of carpet or upholstery mishaps, so when I go the chance to try out this BIG 32 Oz. Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning Spot & Stain Remover Spray By VeryDirtyCarpets with Free Stain Removal Guide. I was eager to test it on a few of these spots and stains.
I have used a variety of carpet cleaners, upholstery cleaners and spot removers in the past with mixed results, so I always go into such a task with low expectations. If it doesn't work at least I tried, but when it does work it is a very happy surprise. So far I am having pretty good luck with this spot remover, although I must say that you really need to read the directions before using so that you use the proper technique for best results.
Unlike some of the other carpet or upholstery cleaners I have used in the past, this one does not require a complete soaking of the area or extreme scrubbing. This product is very easy to use. You simply spray the stain, agitate with a soft brush, blot the carpet, and vacuum. I have had no problems at all with the pet stains I cleaned up with this spot and stain remover.
I also like that this product comes with a free stain removal guide so you can look over some of the difficult stains listed here and see advice from a professional carpet cleaner on how to get certain stains out. Of course no product is going to get out every stain, but so far, this has been the very best stain remover I have tried for getting some of those stubborn stains out.
The company notes that this is not intended for color stains such as cordials, soft drink stains however I have had at least as good of luck with this product as I have with most of the other products I have tried. I also like that since the carpet does not need to be thoroughly saturated like is required with some of the other products, I haven't gotten those horrible water marks that often get left behind when spot cleaning stains.
I still have further testing to do on several unknown stains, however I don't know if there is a product on the market that can get some of them out since they have been there so long. These remaining stains are ones that were not able to be removed completely by other products, and are probably a permanent part of my carpet by now, but like I said before, it can't hurt to try and maybe I will be happily surprised.
Whether or not the old stains come out, I know that it worked well for some of the more recent spots and stains, and definitely give this product my approval because of the results I have had so far. I only wish that they made a full carpet cleaner that worked so well since my entire carpet would highly benefit from such a product.
Although I got this product at a discount or received a complimentary sample in exchange for my honest review, all thoughts and opinions on the products I review are always my own and have not been influenced by any discounts or samples which may have been provided to me.
As you can see, the stain is rather pronounced and is not likely to come out with this or most other cleaners on the market, especially without removing color from the fabric as well. |
