re: Recommendations for carpet cleaning

I've had both Stanley Steamer and some local generic company ... both did the same thing. They sprayed the carpet very lightly with some agent, then came in with their high pressure "steamer" (which I noticed wasn't actually steam), and finished with some quasi-lazy vacuuming. It looked nice, don't get me wrong, but I noticed that it wasn't that nice.

The next time I rented the equipment myself and took my time. I feel like that gave me the best results in the bedrooms. Plus that gave me the time to move furniture around and get every nook and cranny.

Just my 2¢.
