Awesome Carpet cleaner!!!:)

I have to tell you all about my most awesome carpet cleaner. I have lived in my house for almost a year, and let me say that the carpets have taken a beating. We brought Apollo and Jelly Bean(at the bridge) with us(end of Sept, last year). Jelly was "special" and had problems with her bladder, needless to say the carpet (did I mention it's light beige?) got stained. Jelly passed in June and we got Rocky shortly thereafter. He is getting the hang of potty training, but has added his own "marks" to the carpet. Anyways, my friend Angie turns me on to products, services that make my life better. She told me about the Bissell ProHeat 2X carpet cleaner, so I listened. I researched it and it had a majority of positive reviews. I cleaned my living room carpet yesterday and I was impressed, it looked brand new!! I did exactly as the instructions said and pretreated, and cleaned accordingly. Today I tackled the dining room(I avoid having people over-it's sooo nasty), let me tell you, I am so freaking impressed and amazed that I had to tell you, if you don't have one, you NEED one. This product is worth the money and I seriously can't wait to do the rest of the house!!!

That's what I have!! I got it for myself as a wedding gift!! I can't tell you how many times i went over and over and over the carpet, before the water didn't look like chocolate milk! I know, that's gross... but we hadn't cleaned our carpet for almost 2 years, b/c we never HAD a carpet cleaner!!

I got mine at Wal-mart and it was $192.99. All of the other websites that I checked were at least $50 more. Plus, every town has a Wal-mart(pretty much anyhow). Hope that helps. By the way, my dining room floor was dry by 6pm, I cleaned at 10am.
