As Ideal Home’s Cleaning Editor and Floorcare Expert, you might be surprised to hear that I spend my days deliberately spilling coffee, drawing on sofas, and rubbing curry into my carpets. And while that may sound counterintuitive to my role, it allows my team and me to test out the cleaning power of must-have appliances - like the best carpet cleaners and spot cleaners.
Over the past few years, we’ve tested dozens of carpet cleaners in all shapes and sizes, with varying cleaning abilities and power types. But we don’t just clean our carpets and take a few pictures. No, we have established a ruthless testing process to weed out the so-so carpet cleaners from the 5-star models that deserve a place in your home.
