Rug Doctor Mighty Pro Professional Strength

I’m 3 months pregnant and definitely not in the mood to clean my carpets. At the same time, I dread the idea of forking out $200 for someone else to do it. I have a Bissell Steam Cleaner that I’ve owned for several years but lately have found that it doesn’t get the carpets as clean as I like.

So my husband and I decided to rent a Rug Doctor Mighty Pro Professional Strength from our local grocery store. It only cost about $26 bucks to rent the largest unit for a day and I found a coupon on rugdoctor.com for $5.00 off the rental. There were also coupons for the Rug Doctor cleaning solution. However, I purchased Walmart’s Great Value carpet cleaning solution which works just as well as any brand name I’ve tried.

Usually I’m not thrilled when one of my husband’s friends decides to pop over the house unannounced however, since both my husband and I were in a cleaning mood we decided that if he wanted to stay then we were going to put him to work. What a wonderful idea! Not only will this help me check Clean the Carpets off of my “To Do List” but it might also cure his urges to show up whenever he wants or at least think twice about it next time. Lucky for us he did not balk at our suggestion to help. After taking a longer than usually glance at my already protruding stomach (give me a break, it’s my second child), he stepped right in to assist my husband.

The results were fabulous. So much so that for a split second I even considered purchasing a Rug Doctor to replace my current machine…that is of course until I went online to check the amount. With a price tag close to $600, it’s hard to justify the purchase since I only steam clean the carpets 4 times a year. As the carpets get even older (they’re going on 11 years now) I may have to clean them more frequently but for now I’ll continue to rent the Rug Doctor.
