Buying guide
| Type | Suits | Worth checking |
|---|---|---|
| Full-size washer | Deep cleaning rooms, hallways and rugs that see heavy use. | The tank sizes, how heavy it is when full and whether there's a hose and hand tool for stairs. |
| Washer with stain tool | One machine for big cleans and everyday spills. | How the tool comes off and how far its hose stretches. |
| Corded spot cleaner | Spills, pet mishaps, stairs, upholstery and the car. | Hose length, the tools supplied and how big the tanks are. |
| Cordless spot cleaner | Getting to a spill the moment it happens, wherever it is. | How it's charged and whether the run time fits your usual jobs. |
A full-size washer is the one to buy if you want to refresh every carpet once or twice a year. If spills, a new puppy or a pale sofa worry you more, a spot cleaner comes out of the cupboard faster and takes up less room. Lots of homes find a use for both.
A larger clean-water tank saves trips to the tap, but it also makes the machine heavier to push and carry once filled. Smaller washers are easier on the stairs and in the cupboard. Make sure the tanks lift out without a struggle for filling and emptying.
The more water a machine sucks back out, the sooner the carpet can be walked on. Some washers have a quick-dry setting that uses less water, or a suction-only mode for an extra pass. Whatever you buy, an open window and some heating help.
Pet versions add tools for fur and stubborn stains, and some are designed so hair doesn't clog the brushes. Use them with a pet solution made to tackle smells.
A full-size washer won't climb stairs. If yours are carpeted, check the machine comes with a hose and hand tool and see how long the hose is. That same tool does the sofa and the car.
On some washers you squeeze a trigger to spray; others sense whether you're pushing or pulling and wash or dry to suit. Some blend the water and solution for you, so there's nothing to measure.
Mostly hard floors? Look at steam cleaners and mops, or see the whole floorcare range.

Questions
With pets, young children or light carpets, it usually pays its way. Carpets get washed when they need it and spills are dealt with at once, with no machine to hire.
One cleans rooms, the other cleans marks. The washer is full size and works across the whole floor; the spot cleaner is portable and has a hose, so it suits single stains, stair treads and sofas.
Usually after a few hours, though the machine, the carpet and the room all make a difference. Warmth, fresh air and a final pass without spraying all speed it up.
Yes, using a spot cleaner or the washer's hose and hand tool, as long as the fabric can be wet cleaned. Read the care label and test somewhere hidden first.
Use one made for carpet washers, ideally from the machine's maker. Washing-up liquid and other household detergents tend to over-foam and leave a tacky residue.
Some full-size washers have a hard floor setting or tool, and the product page says so. If not, you'll get better results from a steam mop or a hard floor cleaner.
Once or twice a year suits most homes, with spot cleaning in between. Busy hallways, pets and toddlers may call for more frequent washes in the worst areas.
