So currently we have two cats in our house, which as they tend to do reasonably often bring up furballs, food and other even less savoury things onto our floors. After a year of this our carpets are looking quite tired of it.
Getting rid of the cats is not an option, in fact keeping the number down to only two cats is a challenge in itself given my other half's desire to be a crazy cat lady.
As such we're thinking of getting a carpet cleaner to occasionally give the carpets a decent clean of the marks that get left behind. I know that any domestic option will never clean as well as a commercial one we can hire, but quite frankly I can't be bothered hiring one every so often.
So bearing this in mind and in the faint hope people may have experience with these things are there any recommendations or things to look out for when purchasing carpet cleaners? I know nothing about them except not to wear socks when walking over the carpets afterwards...
I also have no budget as I have no clue what to spend on this type of thing. I had a quick look at ao.com last night and they seemed around the £150 mark.
Cheers!
