Most Helpful Review
"I bought this Vax spot wash 2 years ago. It is easy to use, and because it is quite small, easily moved about.There are, however, a couple of problems with it, one more serious than the other. The first is a design fault relating to the clean water tank. This is because the filling cap is situated on the rear side of the tank. You have to lie the tank down and guess how much water and cleaner fluid to put in to bring the mix to the recommended levels. The filling cap would be better placed at the top of the tank. I got round this problem by determining the amount of liquids needed and marking the amount on the tank with a sharpie.The second problem is much more serious. Where the corrugated tube joins the hard plastic hand held suction section there is a good deal of flexing. After a period of time with mine this flexing caused the tube to split. I have not used the machine excessively. I have had to use.duct tape to strengthen this part of the suction tube, but it is again beginning to split. I contacted Vax to see if I could get a replacement tube, but was told that it couldn’t be replaced. Looking at the Vax website indicates that just about every other part of the machine can be replaced, but not the most crucial part. I think that this is a major drawback with this machine"

I purchased this to clean my rugs. So far I'm not disappointed. It has already exceeded my expectations, tackling some tough stains on a hall runner. I've also used it to remove water from my car after discovering a leak which left the carpet in the footwell sodden. It removed a litre of water and left the carpet just damp! It came with attachments, 3 brushes, 2 nozzles, and some free cleaning fluid. It's fairly lightweight, yet powerful enough. It doesn't take up much space, and is no noisier than your average vacuum cleaner. It seems quite sturdy overall. My only grumble would be that some kind of storage for the extra brushes and nozzle would have been nice. That said, being a pet owner, I know I will get a lot of use from this machine, rugs, soft furnishings, even the car seats and carpets!s m s

Great little cleaner at a very competitive price. Holds enough water and detergent to deal with several little stains in one fill. The attachments are useful and fitted firmly. Gets used around the house and on my car seats, and saves all the fuss in getting our big wet 'n' dry vacuum out for small areas. One of those items that suprise you with just how useful they actually are.mr philip french

Just cleaned 2 sofas, come up really good..never used one of these before. The empty tank does go a bit longer without emptying..Now doing the stairs. Wouldn't have space or be able to lift anything heavy as I'm 7 months pregnant so I think that's it's light and not bulky probably better than a large carpet cleaner. Sofas are not soaked as you can go over them until you see no water coming through to the tank(without spraying). Probably dry in a few hours. Needs refilling quite soon when using.. ran out of the small sachet it comes with half one of the sofas..Lead for plugging in is good, hose is not as long.What Customers Talk About
