Here is an article I copied from consumer reports, for those who may need a DIY machine in between professional cleanings.  Enjoy!

KUSA – We spent more than $3 billion in just one year on professional carpet and upholstery cleaning. But you can save a lot of money if you want to tackle the task on your own. Just in time for spring cleaning, Consumer Reports tested eight carpet-cleaning machines from Bissell and Hoover. Prices ranged from $80 to $400. Testers also evaluated a rental machine. For comparison, they hired a professional service, too.

Testing carpet-cleaning machines is a dirty job. First, testers evenly spread a measured amount of topsoil over the carpet. Next, they spray it with water, and then use a heavy roller to press in the dirt, much like foot traffic does. Testers then vacuum the dried dirt and use a device called a colorimeter to measure the amount left on each rug.

Afterwards it is time to put the carpet-cleaning machines to work. Each one passes over the soiled area 20 times. Last step, the colorimeter measures the difference.

No home machines or rented ones did as good a job cleaning as the professional service. You can really see the difference when comparing the professional cleaning to the lowest scoring carpet cleaner, the $80 Bissell QuickSteamer 1770.

Consumer Reports also tested cleaning solutions and spot cleaners. For carpet-cleaning machines, if a cleaning solution is not specified, try the top-rated Fresh Solutions Allergen Complete cleaner. It costs about $17.

If you are just looking to do some spot cleaning, testers recommend the Bissell OxyPro Carpet Spot and Stain Remover that costs about $5.

Customers often ask us how we can possibly move their furniture when Excel cleans their carpet or tile.  While some furniture can be cumbersome to a one or even two person carpet cleaning crew, we can move most furniture with relative ease.  Most living room furniture is simply slid out from its original position, cleaned under, replaced and legs blocked or tabbed for protection.  Heavier or weaker items may need to have sliders placed underneath the legs to allow ease of movement.  Some items, such as china cabinets, curios, will need to be emptied by the client before we move them.  Rarely, there are items even we cannot move while cleaning carpet.  Such items include King beds, large dressers or armours, and some sectional sofas/pit groups.  Excel offers a discounted empty room rate for carpet cleaning if you move the furniture out of the room before we arrive!  If you have any questions before your carpet cleaning appointment, feel free to call the experts at Excel for any questions.
