Brilliant Carpet Cleaner
Brilliant machine - so pleased I paid extra for this Vax Platinum Smartwash Pet carpet cleaner having bought cheaper ones in the past and been disappointed. This machine is light enough to use and manoeuvre easily whilst still feeling a quality weight. Tanks are all easy to fill and clean, it is very simple to use once you’ve read the short instruction book and thanks to the motion sensing dispense and vacuum, you get exactly the right amount of liquid onto the carpet preventing over-soaking. The benefit of this is that carpeted floors dry really quickly (10-30mins) particularly if you go over the floor quickly with the dry-only function at the end of a clean. Time will tell how reliable this machine is but at less than £200 it is excellent value for money.

Brilliant, can't fault it. Easy to use.
This cleaner works perfectly and is easy to use. It did an amazing job of all the carpets in my house, you can also see how well it works when you empty it. No assembly required, just put on the 3 easy to use tanks, slot in the handle and that's it! You probably don't need the pet version of it, as it's just a battery operated squirter in the handle, that you dethatch to use. Just spray pet stain-remover directly from the bottle. I'm really pleased, and for this price, it's excellent value. You only have to use it 3-4 times and you've saved the cost of hiring one. No faults, no issues. It even has a feature that only sprays water when the device is moving forward at the right speed. The dry-only switch allows you to fully remove a lot of water after cleaning.

Absolutely 💯 perfect
Very good performance. Much better than we thought it would be! Brought our carpets back to as good as new. The washing mode very thorough and the drying mode is exceptional. Carpets dry with 1 hour and very soft to touch. Pet attachments Very useful. Very good quality. Worth every penny. We used the vax solutions that left a lovely fragrance. The pre wash solution is remarkable , it lifted what we thought was a permanent stain. Very impressed with our new vax washer and definitely recommend 100 percent.

Good cleaner - works well, but takes a while
Made a massive difference to carpet and upholstery (I used a Dirtbusters Pet Pro carpet shampoo in it). Reasonably easy to use once you've navigated the instructions, although not everything is 100% obvious. Instructions on the supplied shampoo from the same manufacturer say it should be used neat in an "auto-mix" machine. This is apparently a machine with separate water and shampoo reservoirs. This machine is, therefore, an auto-mix machine, although nothing anywhere on the machine documentation or instructions uses this terminology at all, so it's assumed you're going to know what they're talking about. I felt the instruction diagrams for fitting the rollers brushes, etc. could also have been clearer and bigger. Both carpet and upholstery cleaning were very good, lifting a lot of dirt and smelling much better afterwards. Everything was left a little damp, as you'd probably expect, but by using the "dry only" mode on the machine you can go over areas several times to reduce this, and everything dried out overnight for me. The slight pain I found (at least on first use) was that the cleaning action lifted a lot of fluff from the carpet, and I had to clean out both the brush rollers and the vacuum nozzle on the front really frequently, and it's a bit fiddly to clean and clilp back in each time. The big wide vacuum nozzle (which sucks the water back up through a narrow slit) can also sometimes be sucked closed by the vacuum, and I needed to gently pull apart the gap on the nozzle to get it to start working from time to time. Hose attachment with the rotating brush worked well on sofa cushions. Again, they were left a bit damp, but I was able to leave these outside to dry in the sunshine afer cleaning them. Overally, happy with this machine. Performance is very good, and would have given it 5 stars if there had been a bit more care with the clarity of the instructions from such a major manufacturer, and if it was a bit less fiddly when continually have to keep cleaning the machine out every 10 minutes or so during use.

Performs to high standards 🌟
Got this machine last week, have used the detachable brush and have cleaned 2 carpeted rooms already, here my view and learnings: Wonderful product, loved it, it does clean very well upholstery and carpets and this comes from a person with very high cleaning standards! Watching the videos on their website does help a lot! Please do so! You need to monitor the clean water tank so you don't run out of it, this happened to me the 1st time Keep emptying the dirty water tank, it will allow you to run the machine lighter, some people say it's heavy and it will be if both tanks are full Remove as much furniture as you can, it will allow you to run it for washing and drying modes smoothly I used the Platinum Antibacterial cleaner and it's wonderful, my allergies are all gone in the dirty water tank👌🏼 I ran it in washing and drying modes once and a second one removing the cleaner product tank, allows you to rinse it to get a softer texture after drying (watch the videos!) Ran it twice on dry only mode and it took few hours to dry completely - used it at 5 degrees 😂 After doing the cleaning took the time to clean tanks and let them open to dry to avoid for any moisture to build up The whole kit came with a faulty brush, contacted customer service and they confirmed a replacement will be sent - waiting for it to arrive but found the service overall to be of very good quality and customer oriented Overall think this purchase is worth making the effort, it will pay itself after few uses vs paying someone else to do it and you will have one of your own (with your own dirt, no external recycled dirt) and not mention how fun it was to run it! 😂 I am very pleased with my new carpet cleaning machine and regret not buying it earlier! 100% recommended 😎🎉

A Genuine Product
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – A Game-Changer for Pet Owners! The Vax Platinum SmartWash Pet-Design Carpet Cleaner has completely exceeded my expectations. As a pet owner, keeping carpets looking fresh can feel impossible—but this machine makes it effortless. The automatic washing and drying system is incredibly convenient; all I have to do is push forward to wash and pull back to dry. It takes the guesswork out of carpet cleaning. The suction power is impressive, and it lifted deep-set dirt and stains I thought were permanent. The included pet tool is fantastic for stairs, upholstery, and those stubborn little messes pets tend to leave behind. I also love that the machine dispenses the right amount of solution automatically—no mixing, no mess. After one full clean, my carpets looked visibly brighter, smelled fresh, and dried surprisingly quickly. The build quality feels solid, and despite being powerful, the machine is easy to move around and store. If you have pets—or just want professional-level results at home—the Vax Platinum SmartWash Pet-Design is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended!
