Vacmaster VK609PFR 0201 6 Gal 5.5 PHP 3-in-1 Wet/Dry/Upholstery Shampoo Vac

I give this extractor 5 stars not for its build quality, not for its design or features. I give it 5 stars because it gets the job done for a fraction of the price of the pro extractors. I have purchased 3 of these vacmasters extractors. The first one I bought was about 7 years ago and it had a better design and build quality than these new models. The new are not as good as the first model. I don't like the battery powered remote. The water pump that spray the water out is not as strong as the first model and the spray nozzle are very cheap and placed in the wrong spot. The handle is bulky and not that easy to maneuver. It's definitely cheaply made however. It has a strong suction motor. The vacuum works like a champ it has a ton of attachments that allow you to do sofas and house carpes. But like I said the 5 star is because it gets the job done and it cost less that 20% of a professional extractor. I have purchased 3 of them in the past 7 years. I used them every day vigorously. If you keep the filters in and cleaned the motor will last for years. I just bought my third one and I'm waiting on it's arrival. The second just stopped working about 4 days ago. When I say stopped working I mean the motor stopped powering on it could just be a switch but they are so cheap and I have used it for 3 or 4 years I'm not going to waste a second trying to fix it. They are cheap but they look good to the customers. When the customer ask do I have an extractor to shampoo seats I say yes of course. Not a single customer complained.

I like this carpet cleaner! I have been looking for a canister style carpet cleaner for a while and had a very bad ecperience with a similar style from shop-vac brand, so i returned that and purchased this one. it promptly cleaned up the mess the other one made It feels much more robust than its competitor. The clean water line is integral to the vac tube so it wont get snagged on things. The back wheels are very big and the front ones swivel so its easy to pull around. The hose attaches with a threaded coupling so you wont accidentally yank the hose off. The clean water hose has secure clips at every junction that will click into place to prevent leaks. The remote handle is a very convienient feature so you dont have to keep returning to the base to turn on and off the sprayer or vac, you can just press the buttons on the handle. The vac and spray functions work independently. The upholstry shampoo head on the wand has some stiff bristles that really help get stains up. And the head opens up for easy unclogging and cleaning. The wider carpet and floor attachment has a removable brush and squeegee to switch from carpet to hardfloors. The dry floor attachment has a carpet and bare floor mode as well, lowering stiff statonary bristles. It doesnt weigh much when empty, but plan your end point to be near a tub, toilet, drain or outdoors so you dont have to lift it too drain. The spray function sprays really well compated to others. The suction is really good, leaving the carpet barely damp and it dried by morning. Swapping from wet to dry is fairly easy, just empty the contents and let it dry or wipe it out, and put the appropriate filter in, either foam for wet, or cartridge and bag for dry. Its a semi-loud machine, so it may scare your cats or dogs, but most carpet cleaners are, so that wasnt an issue for me. It has a wire rack to store the tube in, but the onboard extension wand storage is only available on the 6 gallon, not the 8, because of the different wheel placement. It cleaned up months old cat vomit stains in just a few passes with some zep, i have not tried the solution it comes with but it did smell mild and not overpowering when i sniffed it. Only use low foaming cleaning solutions as with most carpet cleaners. Remember to rinse out your attachments and hoses and leave the tube port open for the machine to dry all the way if you want to avoid any smells. Both the wet and dry filters are washable, let the dry one dry all the way before re-installing Overall a good experience. I would reccommend this product to anyone with carpets, pets, cars, or kids. Cleva north america is vacmasters parent company, they also make the amorall and kenmore carpet cleaners. *if youre comparison shopping and considering the "shop-vac" brand, save yourself the hassle and get the vacmaster one. The shopvac brand version shot clean water out of the motor housing exaust port all over the place which im pretty sure is a electrocution hazard but also rendered the carpet cleaning function inoperable.

It's a real good vacuum it's motor is quite powerfull making it's suction power superb. Using it for a few months there are just a few positive and negative. Positive: 8 gallon size is just right not too bulky and not too small. Powerful motor, and so suction is great! Various attachments makes it ideal. Built is very durable, can take rigorous use without breaking. Negative: The wet vacuum aspect needs a tiny 9 volt battery sparete from the supplied power, when it goes dead or the first time you have to remember that's it's there otherwise you might want to return it saying it stopped working. The hose that carries the chemicals to spray breaks easily, so right now that feature is not working for me. The drain plug is way above the base, so it's almost impossible to drain all the water after sucking up liquid.

This arrived very quickly and was so easy to assemble, you just need a Phillips head screwdriver. Honestly this thing is so good that I threw out my old vacuum! I went to use the old vacuum which started spitting back out all the dirt and crumbs and making my daughter's allergies go crazy. So I used my freshly assembled vacmaster to revacuum and my daughter could feel the difference in the air immediately! So to the curb went the other one. This is my new cleaning friend and will get lot of use out of it in the house and working on projects in the garage!! I vacuumed half my house in half the time because it cleans so well. I was able to clean all the dust balls off my a/c vents on the ceiling without needing a ladder since the cord and hose are so long! Plus the suction on this is so good it sucked a plastic container from the opposite side of my car when I was cleaning the floor rugs!! I havent use the carpet/upholstery cleaner yet but I am sure its going to wow me just as much when I try it out on my car seats this weekend! It's such a smart idea to combine the shop vac with a carpet cleaner and I wish i had known about it sooner! I think the only con is that I cant take the canister off the wheels to dump things when I am done. It makes it a bit awkward but otherwise I am really happy with this purchase! I would definitely say its worth it and was good price!

I am deeply disappointed with my recent purchase of the Vacmaster VK609PFR 0201 6 Gallon 5.5 Peak HP 3-in-1 Wet/Dry/Upholstery Shampoo Vacuum Cleaner. From the moment I received it, I encountered several significant problems that rendered it practically unusable. Firstly, the vacuum consistently fails to turn on correctly, causing frustration and inconvenience every time I attempt to use it. Additionally, the grips designed to secure the top part of the vacuum do not fit properly, resulting in an unstable structure that compromises its functionality. Moreover, the suction power of the vacuum is shockingly inadequate. Despite its advertised capabilities, it fails to clean effectively, leaving behind dirt and debris even after multiple attempts. Overall, my experience with this vacuum cleaner has been nothing short of disappointing. I had high hopes for a versatile and efficient cleaning solution, but instead, I received a faulty product that falls far short of its promises. I am deeply dissatisfied with both the quality of the product and the level of support provided by Amazon in addressing these issues Not only did the Vacmaster VK609PFR 0201 6 Gallon 5.5 Peak HP 3-in-1 Vacuum Cleaner fail to meet expectations, but the customer service experience with Amazon was equally disappointing. Throughout my attempts to address the issues with the product, I encountered rude and unhelpful representatives who consistently closed the chat before any resolution could be reached. This lack of professionalism only added to the frustration of dealing with a malfunctioning product. Overall, the combination of poor product quality and unsatisfactory customer service has left me thoroughly dissatisfied with my experience.

Noise level: Not too loud but easy to notice it's on Vacuum quality: Easy to clean tough messes Start Up: It was hard to figure out the two step processs when I got it out of the box, but it's like a child lock for the toddlers in the house. Easy to start after. Bulld quality: High quality. Power: It's got great cleaning power and sucking power, also easy on electricity use. Attachments: It comes with ever you need to get started. Value for money: it's a very high value, worth it.

Edit I don't regret purchasing this machine. Just make sure you secure the wheels with wire. I like the machine. Easy to use. I use it for regular household cleaning. If it wasn't for the wheels I'd give it a 4. Construction other than the wheels is good. Well the wheels are good but the clamps that are supposed to hold them in are not suited to do so. _____ I requested a replacement and I had the same issue with the wheels. It's a decent machine. So, I'm gonna keep it but I had to come up with a solution to keep the wheels on. I wrapped some jewelry wire and glue around it. Let it dry then put the hubcap on it. Original Review: It has good suction power. However every time I tried to use it the wheels fell off. I took the hubcaps off several times to fix it. Until I was fed up and glued the hook to the washer with weldbond glue in hopes they would not come out. Before gluing the hooks to the washers I couldn't roll the machine to another room without the wheels falling off. After glueing I was able to roll back and forth. I was cleaning a septic backup so I was back and forth. The wheels did not fall off... The next day, moved the machine and the wheels were loose Ugh. I had to clean up a mess so I couldn't bother with fixing it. I only had one small room to clean so I figured they would last. Lol, I pulled the hose to vacuum the water up and the dang wheel came off. The machine was leaning and the water was coming from the side or bottom. At this point I just started 😢 crying because I wanted to cuss and kiçk the machine. .on top of that the hose and suction adapter for wet vac is not comfortable to use. I have to keep adjusting it. I watched so many reviews on this expecting it to be good. But this isn't working for me. I thought I got a good deal but this is too much work. And very frustrating. I couldn't find a link to contact the store. I always have that issue on Amazon. So it's not the stores fault. But as much as I want to like this and keep it. I will have to send it back. Maybe this is just a bad machine. Idk...but I swear it will give me HBP and grey hairs.

is this a mytee lite no it is not. I purchased this as a low cost carpet extractor. it does what it supposed to it applies water or cleaner to the surface you are cleaning and sucks the residue back out. had to get used to the handle and the remote on/off for both liquid spray and vacuum biggest problem was when it came to getting into the corners and at weird angles if the handle was more strait it would be easier. the spray is not overly powerful and only covers about 2 inches of the small extractor tip but i can work around that. the suction of the unit is as powerful as my 5hp shop vac. did find that it has a vacuum leak where the tip is put together that was quickly remedied with some tape. The Vacmaster VK609PFR 0201 6 Gallon is a great machine would i buy it again heck yes will try it on another detail soon

Funciona mejor de lo que pensaba, fácil de usar. Me encanta como deja los muebles

Don't forget when you click the power on button you must touch the touchpad the second bottom that says vacuum or will not power on that is located on the canister not on the lid right below the big yellow power button. You have to click the top big yellow button and push the touch button that looks like microwave touchpad or it won't power on. You don't need to put the battery in the hose compartment if you're only going to use it for a vacuum. If you're going to shampoo that's when you need to put the battery in the little compartment in the handle at the end of the hose. Amazon does sell 8 or 10 pack for under $10 on Amazon compatible replacement batteries. I think the seller of all products in all stores if they are not going to sell any accessories or replacement parts or batteries they need to supply a link to where you can find them on Amazon or sell them themselves. First off it was my mistake on the handle not fitting. It fits. It a case of no glasses on and looking at the wrong side of where it should have been screwed in. Great handle, very strong! My second problem unlike most wet-vacs. I thought it was dead because switching the big yellow button on did not power on the vacuum. There's extra touch buttons like a microwave right underneath the big yellow power button if you touch push the top one it's the shampooer don't do that you'll burn the motor out cuz there's no water in the machine. The first button is for the shampooer which I think they made a mistake they should have put the one you used more frequent the vacuum at the top and the shampooer at the bottom. Maybe the manufacturers did it that way because most buy it for the wet vac and not as a vacuum. I can't imagine anybody after buying this machine wanting to ever buy a vacuum unless it's a Dyson because this is the most powerful wet vac as a vacuum I've ever seen or used. Make sure you always push the lower button which is the vacuum when you push that then you can use it as a vacuum but not with just the yellow power switch on itself. At first you will think the vacuum motor is dead. So you only have to remember to use it as a vacuum the big yellow button and then the touch button that's like a microwave below it which is the bottom one is the vacuum the panel does not light up like the instructions say for you to actually see the writing better, so just remember it's the bottom ones the vacuum. I was super duper stressed until I learned all this. I didn't know after you click the power on the main vacuum you had to press the touch button on the vacuum under the power on main button as well or the vacuum won't run. Myself, I would not be using it for a shampooer but once a year in home. Some may want to use it for their cars and vans. 8 I just happened to have a phillips screw driver to to screw the roller wheels on the bottom and the handle on the top to lift it. At this price I think they should supply one. The cord is super long!!! I've not read how long but it has to be 15 plus feet. The hose is good quality for today how they make them. It is also long. I took the white tank off the back and wrapped up half the electical power cord and laid it in the basket at the back where the shampoo solution tank normally would go. Doing that makes for you not to drag all that very long extra cord I don't need in a small 10 x12 bedroom I vacuum every day. It is a a beast, about 34 pounds in weight. GREAT SUCTION!! So far so good. So having the box damaged with a reboxing of it to hide the hole in the original box the machine comes in worried me so much. I didn't see the whole in the original box until I took off the outter box that had no damage. I didn't like the fact it was hidden in another box. It made me worry it would not work. So having not known the power button how it worked made me panic so bad that the damaged box did damage to the machine. With all this combination was stressful. In the end it works like it should. You won't regret buying this machine as long as it all works out and funtions properly for you. I will do an update next week once I try the shampooer part to make sure that part works as well. I'm sorry to the seller and Amazon for my last review. It does work after all. Also for those that may not know if this is manual labor for vacuuming it's not Auto pull you or so I find it hard to push forward cuz I'm old and don't have the greatest back for vacuuming but I just pulled back when I'm vacuuming only because it is manual labor it's not an electric of course. I bought it for the vacuum not the shampooer I can't believe the suction on this thing. I live in an apartment so I waited until after 11:00 to use it because I was worried it would be noisy and wake up my neighbors that maybe sleeping so I thought I won't use it until after 11:00 in the morning and never after 8:00 at night I have to laugh at myself because it's very quiet it's no louder than then my upright beater bar one that I have this vacuum actually it's a quieter. I've used it six times and I have to back off the suction switch open it up because it's too powerful if I don't stand on my heavy mats it will want to lift it up in the air. The air wattage is 230 more than the average high-end vacuum the horsepower is 5.5 super duper suction.

Lava muy bien, un poco ruidoso pero muy efectivo, la humedad que deja se va aproximadamente en unas 6-10 horas

Hasta el momento ha sido un magnífico producto, cumple con su función en forma adecuada, recomendado definitivamente
