May the gods curse Rug Doctor!

We’ve been in the new house about a month.

Some of the areas upstairs and downstairs are carpeted.

So, it’s time for a shampoo.

I vacuum a couple times a week,

But you just have to do that every few weeks regardless of how dirty you think they are.

Rented a Rug Doctor yesterday because I forgot to buy a carpet cleaner.

Due to being wicked out of shape, about ten minutes into shampooing the carpets I had to take my glasses off because of all the sweat.

So,

I get done and move to the next room.

All the carpets are done (just upstairs) and I realize I never emptied the return.

I put my glasses on and see a fine grey lint like substance all over the place.

Additionally, it’s soaking wet.

The only thing in the return take was a pebble.

A PEBBLE.

I flip the thing over and start messing with it.

Soooo much filth.

Just disgusting.

I managed to get the suction line clean enough for it to get the excess water up,

But it took like 5 passes and they’re still dirty.

This morning I return the bad Rug Doctor and get a new Rug Doctor.

It works.

I got the upstairs rooms done and sat down for a break.

The skin on my hand felt weird when I was typing and realized I have like 20 blisters on my hand from working that ■■■■■■■ Rug Doctor all day yesterday.

And today.

And I still have to do downstairs.

Oooooo!

I’m so mad.

The retailer is giving me a full refund when I return this machine.

So there’s really no one to ■■■■■ to.

Just cursing Rug Doctor’s name over here.

I totally set myself up for that one!

No,

It’s a carpet shampooer.

But I can complain about a gyno too.

Give me anything, I can complain about it.

I too rented a rug doctor about 20 years ago. The lesson I learned was just hire a professional in future.

We bought a Bissel - just easier when you have pets. It works very well.

aw ■■■■. sorry about that…our dogs go outside so we don’t have that problem…all wood floors…thank goodness…our chihuahua likes to hike inside.

Omg! How frustrating! I’d be losing my mind!

The blisters are starting to burn but I did finish all all the rooms.

Your hands look like a hand models compared to mine lol I have the hands of a 60 year old mechanic :smile:

My hands are really super aged.

I mean, I’m old,

But also I spent years scrubbing in for surgery every day.

It didn’t help.

I’ve got a Rug Doctor that I bought of a telesales programme. It’s had more use from people borrowing it then from cleaning my own carpets.

Almost as bad as owning a pickup truck. Or a camera. My camera gets invited to a lot of events.
