Our Top Carpet Cleaner Picks
If you plan to use a carpet cleaner regularly and most of your home is carpeted, then an upright cleaner, while pricier and bulkier, will be your best option. Upright machines, like vacuums, have larger tank sizes and more power. However, they're also noisier and more awkward to use than a smaller machine.
Best Overall Carpet Cleaner
For just $200, this relatively affordable upright cleaner checks all the boxes for us: ample tank size, powerful cleaning capability, simple assembly, automatic shampoo release and mixing, and easy to clean.
Best Portable Carpet Cleaner
We tested Bissell's larger Spot Clean Professional model and cordless Pet Stain Eraser, but Little Green was the perfect in-between in terms of size, tank capacity and price.
Best Carpet Cleaner for Pet Stains
Designed with pet owners in mind, our tester, a parent of two border collie mixes and two young adults, has relied on this machine for years to remove stubborn stains and general dinginess from her carpets and rugs.
Best Budget Carpet Cleaner
For quick cleaning in small spaces, this compact upright machine gets the job done. It's sturdy while still being lightweight and agile, perfect for a home with stairs or a carpeted apartment. While the trigger function for releasing the cleaning solution isn't ideal, it did at least feel well-made.
Best Commercial-Style Carpet Cleaner
This is a big, serious machine for big, serious cleaning jobs, and it won't be the right choice for everyone. But if you want perfect results every time and have the space to store a machine this large, then we can't recommend Big Green enough. The hefty price and size (It weighs 40 pounds!) are intimidating, but the suction power is unrivaled.
Cleans Better, Dries Faster
Light and easy to maneuver, the BISSELL Big Green carpet cleaner uses less water and runs consistently on both forward and backward strokes. This makes for a deeper clean when compared to other leading rental machines (based on measurements of reflectance and brightness of fibers).
