    I am doing some spring cleaning and decided to change out my area carpets (I store the spring/summer carpets under our bed). I wanted to clean one of the carpets so I referred to UA-cam and long and behold I too spent way too much time watching these videos. But the best part of this video is reading the comments left but my fellow brethren. I laughed and laughed. Thanks people. Is this a great country or what?

    Thanks so much for showing me how to clean my rug at home. I went out and bought all the supplies in this video, and rented a warehouse space for the weekend and it only cost about $6000! I didn't know where to find a Jehovah Witness to clean it for me but I think I did OK.

    Great vid. I just cleaned our wool rug nearly the same way. Soaking and squeegee several times is really 90% of the finish work. Wool rugs absorb so much dirt you have to soak press out all the build-up of grime. It's actually quite gross how much dirt comes out. Then drying...what a pain. More squeezy and hitting it with strong fans is necessary. I like how you guys use turbo fans to run air underneath. That's a much better process that flipping the rug over. Even mildly damp wool rugs are very heavy and hard to turn.

I live in the US not sure where you live. But have been trying to find one all over and can’t. I can import a protima one from Poland but that’s gonna cost me over $200 and I can’t do that. I may have to try and make one out of wood I think. I don’t know. So frustrating. I just want a good squeegee for my videos.
