Is this unit heavy? Actually, not at all. You can move it around with perfect ease, and manoeuvring it becomes a pleasure instead of a chore. The Tower can manage small obstacles, high carpets, or stairs like a pro. And by the way, the handle is removable, which means easy storage; a very nice touch for smaller houses or apartments. The only design flaw of this unit is that the trigger switch for liquid dispersal is hard to hold down.The 5 metre power cord provides added freedom of movement without constantly needing to constantly change plugs. Independent cord storage lets you neatly store the carpet washer away in the cupboard without the mess of wires. As for the stairs, upholstery, and car seat cleaning, the unit comes with a handy upholstery wash tool and a 2.5m hose that will make these tasks a breeze. By the way, the appliance is equipped with an 8m long power cord for on the floor and above the floor cleaning of bigger rooms without unplugging and changing outlets. Carpet washers are specifically designed to penetrate deep into the carpet fibers, removing embedded dirt, allergens, and stubborn stains that vacuum cleaners may miss. This results in a cleaner and healthier environment for you and your family. Now to the twin tank tech that makes the Tower extra convenient in use. What you get is a 2.3 l clean water tank plus the 1.5 l tank for dirty water. Both are completely separate, so no water contamination – and much better cleaning results from the first try. Also, filling/emptying the tanks is easy as pie.

Lightweight design for strain-free movement between rooms, as well as navigating up and down your stairs. The space-saving handle can be removed for a simple storage solution

A big attachment for carpets or a small hand-held attachment for upholstered furniture is usually used for wet cleaning. These attachments have special mechanisms inside which allow them to disperse cleaning solution. In most carpet cleaners for home use, there are 2 cleaning stages. First, you have to spray the detergent mixed with water onto the needed surface, then a brush whips this mix into the foam, after that the foam enters deep into the fibres of the carpet, and finally, all the dirt goes up together with the foam. A carpet shampooer absorbs everything into a dirty water tank and, as a result, the surface dries. There is a possibility to wash both the upholstery and furniture during the cleaning since a carpet cleaner splashes shampoo with water and immediately collects it.
