KoblenzCarpet Shampooer and Floor Polisher, 12" Carpet Cleaner with Scrubbing Brushes and Polishing Pads, 144 Ounce Tank, White/Black (P 2600A)

I love this scrubbing devil. We moved into our house in December, and I have not been pleased with the look of the carpets or the ceramic tile. I bought this originally for the carpet; I use to always have my carpets dual processed whenever I had them cleaned, no one does that anymore, I did have a "professional" clean my carpets, what a joke. I used an extra strength solution and scrubbed the heck out of the living room carpet, I was going to use a shop vac that I had bought to extract the dirty solution unfortunately that didn't work out so well. I bought a Hoover carpet cleaner, by the time that got here the carpet was dry, I filled the hoover with just water and rinsed it very well and extracted all that nastiness. I then filled the tank again and I actually added a small amount of bleach, (our carpet if very light, I also figured if I ruined it, it was already ruined). I ran over it very slowly, got quite a bit of the bleach solution on the carpet and extracted it, it was still disgusting. There was no odor what so ever when I was done or why the carpet was drying. After such great results I started eyeing my tile, which is textured, so I was thinking "is that just the design or is that imbedded dirt? I used the hard/tile floor brushes and used my favorite solution of Hot Water, White Vinegar and a Tablespoon of Dawn. Fortunately it was not imbedded dirt, but the tiles are much lighter, and the grout is nice and clean too. I would buy this again and have already recommended it to several of my friends.

After reading many of the reviews paying close attention to 1and 2 star, decided to give it a try. My hardwood floors have taken a beating over the years but nothing compared to the last 5 weeks with two grown dogs that love to play ruff and tumble constantly. Before I get into the buffer operation I must emphasize that the overall condition of the finish on the hardwood, as well as what the original finish material was is going to determine the final outcome, also how much time and effort you want to put into it - the floors came out amazing.The buffer was packaged in a sturdy box and all parts were included. The water tank did not leak which I was very happy about, some reviews complained about that. Some reviews complained that it wasn’t heavy enough which is a valid point, but if it were it would be easy to overload the motor possibly damaging it. You just have to go slow and give it time to do the job.The process I used was simple and time consuming but well worth it, in detail this is how I did it. Using water in the tank and the hard floor brushes with the green pads I did a section of the floor keeping the floor wet so the pads didn’t bog down after which was mopped up before drying. Once the entire floor was finished I went to the orange pads and buffed the floor (dry) until I reached the shine I was wanting - that’s it. Only the deep scratches didn’t come out which I didn’t expect would in the first place, but the overall finish was beyond my expectations. I have already ordered replacement pads so that I have an extra set on hand for the next time.

I purchased this machine to be able to scrub my very dirty carpet. After having it in the box unopened for a year I finally used it. I was very pleased with how well it worked. My carpet looks great, I used it in conjunction with a carpet extractor from Bissell. It saved me a lot of elbow grease and I was able to clean two rooms and a hallway in 2 hours. My only complaint is that solution tank doesn’t disperse the solution like it should, so I had to pre spray with spray bottle which I also purchased from Amazon . This machine is not very loud and even though it is heavy duty it’s not heavy, overall I’m happy with my purchase .

I’ve used these for years in my commercial cleaning business. With that said, I really have put them to the test and typically get 5+ years out of them. Eventually they just get worn out bearings, motors etc. the older ones used to kind of “lock” in place when upright. This new version does not. Tanks were always problematic. Leaking, not dispensing etc. I learned to live with it because it is a handy, powerful little scrubbing machine. But this new one, the pin that locks into the fork that is attached to the dispensary lever was a mile off! There’s no way that it would activate the rod inside of the resivior to work. I’m handy, so I heated up the solder and it dropped into place (1/4”) . Obviously, I shouldn’t have to do this. Works fine now…. QC needs to pay better attention. Guess I see how long this one lasts. Not excited about the handle not locking upright anymore, but it still beats spending $$$ on a real commercial machine.

This was supposed to be NEW! Obviously, it's used, I've had to replace parts in my own dime since I took it out of the box! Washer, leaked all over, o ring inside BROKEN! Piece to allow water to flow out once lifted up, fell off, have to superglue it back on! Definitely not worth the EXPENSIVE PRICE!

We have very light tile with medium grout and had some hazing since the original install 5 years ago. We had almost given up when we decided to try this scrubber. The result has been amazing! And the unit is very easy to use. The only issue is that the tank seems to have a slow leak but as I'm busy spreading water and cleaner around anyway, it is fine. Would absolutely buy this again. BTW, the other accessories look like they would do a great job with wood floors, but we are all tile here as it is a vacation home at the beach.

If this review is valuable, buy the machine, it does the right job and without the need for much physical effort, it can clean carpets and floors in a matter of minutes, to collect the dirty water I added a vacuum cleaner
