shire350Z Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 In desperate need of a new hoover my old ones about dropped to bits and just wondered what you guys were using as wanting a really good one maybe one that even fires water into the carpets also to really bring them up, got a carpet cleaner but thats way to bulky to be getting out each time so ideally looking for a small unit Cheers guys P.S just to point out as i didnt make it that clear this is for the carpets in my car and the car mats not in the house the Dysons fine for that Quote
shire350Z Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 not really ideal for doing the inside of my car hugh not at that price anyway and thats all it will be used for Quote

rtbiscuit Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 i use the baby dyson we used to use it in the house but upgraded to a upstand one so this got relegated to car cleaning, but it does a top job. basically the old version of this http://www.dyson.co.uk/store/product.as ... 2-WOODWOOL Quote
Envy Valeting Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Good old Henry here for me Bullet proof, bags are cheap and he's got a nice face Buy the Numatic (ie unbranded henry) and its cheaper. eBay's the place for em.... Quote
Biggy Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 I like the George, good for giving your matts a good soak and scrub then extracting the water out of them leaving them good as new Quote
Husky Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 vax are the experts in washing ones. i'll dig out a link Quote
clarkie34 Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 I've got the Henry,it's a vac/carpet cleaner.Think I paid about £170 for it. Quote
Husky Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 http://www.vax.co.uk/shop/product/carpet-cleaners/heated/Dual-V-Vax-V-124A the dogs balls but not cheap but thats for carpet washing and has a hand tool so you can do the fixed carpets in the car. this'd do you if your just taking the mats out. http://www.vax.co.uk/shop/product/carpe ... W91-RS-B-A prob better gettign a normal vacuum and putting some elbow grease in Quote

Totally agree, use a henry my self and their the best!. You can get right into every corner due to the long hose and small nib and the suction never falters. You pay for quality tho! If you can't get a Henry, try a Hetty, she might be cheaper. Quote

3FIDDYZ Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 I got 2 dysons, a ball and a normal one, and a henry. Always go for the henry! Just easier for the hose when cleaning the car... But the older Dyson came with a car kit that is pretty useful its got an attachment with brush that spins like a hoover that is good for gettting the carpets nice and clean in the car... Noticed in Tesco tonight they have the Karcher wet / dry hoovers at 1/2 price... Looked a good deal... Quote
Chesterfield Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Dyson animal with the stair attachment works well in cars Feel free to have a look on Thrsday buddy Quote
Biggy Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.207-7015.aspx Looks like a bargain! Quote
dcash5 Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 /\ another off topic biggy are you 'Dan Lowrie's' mate (euro'd mk1 clio with L&J audio setup)? Think Ive met you at a few midzmodified meets? Quote
D4XNY Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 You ever thought about taking the car mats out and pressure washing them? It drives the dirt out of them, then just hang them to dry, its a quick and easy way to get them clean quick..... Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 You dont really want to be using a wet / dry carpet vac in a car too often. once a year at least and when you do it needs to be warm and you leave all the windows / doors open.. Carpets will never totally dry and you will get condensation that you will never really get rid of! Quote

shire350Z Posted June 29, 2010 Author Posted June 29, 2010 Very true mark I was thinking for the mats but I could just use my carpet cleaner for that! So ill just go for a hoover with lots off attachments Quote
