Costco has a Rug Doctor for 399 with fabric attachments has anyone used one of these its cheap and looks like it could work ? I have never tried to remove smoke smells or major stains yet so im not sure what i need in order to accomplish amazing results do i need a full out extractor?
 
when the pump went out on my thermax extractor i had a big job to do so i went and rented one and it worked good only draw back was it was a cold water one

I rented a Rug Doctor once for my house and it leaked all over our hardwood floors. A seal of some kind musta blown-out. It was a rental, so I didn't investigate

Rug Doctor at one time was the industry leader in carpet extractors. I have a feeling they've gone to using cheap parts. Everything you see at Costco or Sams is usually a piece of crap packaged up to look nice
 
To the 400 guy 400 is CHEAP for an extractor very cheap and thanks prob wont grab it but I need it
 
I bought my barely used Rug Doctor on CL for $200. I use it for both the house and the cars, I'm happy with it.
 
I've been using my Rug Doctor for about a year now. I've had good results. Just use hot tap water.
 
I borrowed a Rug Doctor from a friend so I could compare it to my 15 year old Bissell Pro Heat carpet cleaner.
The Rug Doctor did a much better job of extracting. Don't know if was due to it having stronger suction, or just because it's base made a better seal against the carpet.

But it extracted all the soap residue in about a quarter the time.

I think I'll watch Craig's for a used one too.
 
I will be using this on a car though is the stuff that comes with it work well for auto ?
