Change of plans on the Anko steam cleaner, I returned it after seeing that you couldnât use the steam function with the long telescopic attachment and the larger nozzle. Thatâs only for spills on hard floors and windows which are now what I needed it for.
Machine looked great for the price and I expected to have to put some extra time and patience in using something labeled as a spot cleaner. I might have kept it even using the little brush nozzle. But I wasnât doing the entire carpets hunched over with a tiny handheld.
I got a cheap HEPA vacuum because my cheap stick is starting to fall apart, and will just have to constantly vacuum until I sort out and save for a proper steam cleaner.

you donât need a steam cleaner, just a normal carpet cleaner using very hot water and special cleaners is good enough

JB Hi Fi do click and collect on carpet shampoo www.jbhifi.com.au/collections/âŚ/bissell
that stuff lasts for ages as you only have to use about 30 ml in the hot water at a time. You can use more as then the machine with over flow with bubbles
