GBDilapidated machines, ghastly customer service This company rents out dilapidated pieces of trash. Their customer service is just as poor. The first machine had very poor suction and left the carpet very wet, even though the instructions were followed. Dampness should be expected but the carpet was wet and took days to dry with fans running. The carpet did not seem clean either. I decided to try vacuuming the carpet throughly again and then I rented another machine thinking it was due to malfunction. I got the second machine home and the brush would not turn on, and the light illuminated saying it was jammed. There was nothing stuck and it was easy to turn by hand. I contacted customer service and they stated based on the information the machine was broken and I would have to return to the store to exchange it. When I got to the store I called the kiosk number as instructed. They said I could return the machine for a full refund or exchange it for a new machine. Because this had taken over two hours of my time and an extra trip across town, I asked for a partial refund and to exchange the machine. Rug Doctor declined and refused to give back any money if I exchanged the machine. I simply returned the machine and they refunded me the rental cost, but not my wasted evening. It is understandable that machines malfunction, but I cannot do business with a company that is not interested in making it right. I will rent a Bissell instead. Rug Doctor uses contactless kiosks and their dilapidated machines are not checked or maintained between uses. This is in contrast with Bissell, where you talk to an actual person when renting the cleaner.

GBAbsolutely awful Absolutely awful. Hired one from our local Tesco store. Everything was ok until we woke up the next day. All our carpets smell lovely like stale pee. Never in all of my life have I smelt anything like it. Cannot get rid of the smell at all. What an absolute joke. £50 for the hire and solution.

GBRental machine system doesn't seem very… Rental machine system doesn't seem very well controlled. Hired online, went to pick the machine up and there was no machine to take from locker. The 24h hire went out of the window. No customer service available at the time.

GBWorked very well The vacuum cleaned very well and when I cleaned out the dirty water tank there was a bunch of trash that I didn’t realize was on the floor! I really wish there was a different way of cleaning the tank out because tilting it to empty it out was hard because some of the water didn’t want to come out. Overall great experience!

GBA fan of the process Loved the access and software made it super easy - Loved the pay and go and easy returns I was traveling at my daughters house and needed a quick fix/clean before adding bunk beds to their children's room. The quality of the machine was very commercial but didnt draw up the water as well as my own Bissell--that makes all the difference on these machines--- as long as yo pour down warm/hot water the catch is drawing the water up effectively
