Opinions on carpet steam cleaners: which one's the best?
My Hoover broke, so I went to Kohl’s and got a really nice deal on a Rug Doctor Mighty Pro. Nice machine, except it’s heavy, and it only extracted 25% or LESS of the water out of the mattresses and couch cushions. SO, I reasearch all nite. There’s a really nice Bissell on sale at Kohl’s too, but many reviews said that when you do furniture, it doens’t extract much water. So, today I go to Kohl’s, and take back the Rug Doctor. I bought a Hoover Max extract. It extracts about 80% of the water, has a few annoying things like any carpet cleaner, but they’re now putting on stiff, short, grey HARD plastic hoses that want to curl up. Also it’s hard to work on the bottom edges of the chairs near the floor, because the hose is so stiff, it gets under the upholstery tool and your hand and blocks you from running the tool down at the very bottom bottom near the floor.
Anyone got any other ideas? I’m not familiar with the Dyson at all. I wouldn’t touch a Shark, and don’t like Oreck anything.
How do I keep cats out?
we have 2 cats. we adopted them from a shelter 3 years ago. they get along well, but we can’t break them from scratching different surfaces.
the male: scratches couch arms, under doorways, and sheer curtains
the female: scratches rugs/carpets and window sills in an attempt to pull herself into the window
we have expecting our first baby and don’t want the cats wrecking the nursery by clawing the glider, decorative rug, curtains, and window sills. we have tried consistently for 3 yrs to use:
- citrus-scented spray on the furniture made to detract cats
- reprimands
- pet gates (they jump over them)
- trimming their nails
we don’t want to have to leave the door closed, because i want to be able to hear if the baby is crying (without always lugging the monitor around). also, if my hands are full with the baby, a cat will easily be able to squeeze in while i open the door and enter. if there is a gate and i’m carrying the baby, i’ll have to juggle baby while trying to undo the gate one-handed.
i don’t want to send our cats back to the shelter. any suggestions?
our contract from the shelter stipulates that we won’t declaw the cats because it is inhumane. i also researched it. it’s expensive (00+ per cat) and requires multiple anti-infection treatments every day for a month.
we tried dbl-sided tape on the kitchen counters and spray bottles. neither worked. the tape didn’t both the male enough to get off the counter and neither did the bottles. the female was easier to correct, but the male is very big and stubborn.

What color carpet and paint to match red furniture?
We just bought a house and it needs to be painted, and it needs new carpet. We have bright red furniture, and I don’t know what color carpet and paint to get. I was thinking a caramel color, but I don’t want the carpet and walls to be the same color. I have no idea what to do.
How do I put down carpet?
I bought a mobile home that had "new carpet installed" well the carpet is new, but it wasn’t installed. They just laid it down after fitting it.
Now that I’ve moved some of my furniture around, it’s causing the carpet to pull up. I’ve laid tiles before, but not carpet. What do I do to get it installed properly?
how to remove stains of stain remover from sofa set?
Hi,
I just got a used sofa from someone.Was trying to clean it up.Ended up making it look more messy.I bought this and later i came to know that the owner had pets, as lot of hair was coming out.Used a lint roller was able to remove lot of hair.There were very light stains so i got a stain remover, followed the instructions on it, but it did not clear the stain instead it left its own stain.The furniture is from Rowe’s. It is marked both w and s on sofa.On chair it is marked w.How is steam cleaning done.Do i really need it.The sofa is light colored. I saw rug doctor machines in genardis , should i rent them or should i buy a new vaccum cleaner.Which vaccum cleaner would be best and economical, keeping in mind that i dont have pets, but the owners of the set from whom i bought it had them(around 100$).thanks
I need decorating ideas.?
I don’t have a lot of furniture. I want to make a little look like a lot. Will adding a rug make it look more put together? the pieces don’t match. I also have a ton of baby toys all over the place. I think I have figured out where to put them but I’m still working on everything else. Where should I store my papers? Where can I get cheap decorations? I have picture frames ect. But the wall is huge and they look dumb all alone even though they are 8×10 or 10×13 in size. I can’t paint the walls but I have some artwork of my own. Do I have to frame it? They are fairly big and it would cost me a ton so I don’t want to but I don’t want them to look like crap either so I haven’t done anything. We moved 4 months ago but it looks like we just moved in last week! I need help getting this place together. Any ideas? Thanks. Black is my fiance and my favorite color but we don’t like goth stuff.
