A carpet cleaner shampoo deep cleans your carpet to remove tough stains, odours and dirt. Most carpet cleaner shampoos are meant for use with a carpet-cleaning machine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In this buying guide, we review the top five carpet cleaner shampoo you can buy online. But first, some tips on how to choose the best shampoo for your carpet.<\/p>\n

Key Considerations When Choosing a Carpet Cleaner Shampoo<\/h2>\n

A. Ideal for Both Handwashing and Machine Washing<\/h3>\n

Most of the carpet cleaner shampoos you\u2019ll come across are for use with a carpet cleaner. You add the shampoo to the water reservoir in the machine.<\/p>\n

Check if the shampoo is also safe for handwashing. This is helpful when you only need to clean stains and small dirt spots. Instead of spending a lot of time cleaning the entire carpet, you can spot-clean the affected area using the shampoo.<\/p>\n

B. Stain and Odour Removal<\/h3>\n

Check how good the shampoo is at removing stains, particularly stubborn stains. Generally, pricier concentrated shampoo formulas tackle stains more effectively.<\/p>\n

With cheaper shampoos, you may need to wash the carpet several times before the stain disappears.<\/p>\n

In addition to stain removal, check if the shampoo can also get rid of odours. A shampoo that gets rid of smells will leave your carpet smelling fresh and clean. It\u2019ll also be helpful when dealing with a stain caused by a pet or child accident.<\/p>\n

C. Stain Protection<\/h3>\n

A good carpet cleaner shampoo should not only remove stains from your carpet, but also protect it from future stains.<\/p>\n

Look for a carpet cleaner that shields your carpet from further soiling and staining. Of course, it cannot protect your carpet forever but it\u2019ll reduce how often you need to clean your carpet.<\/p>\n

D. Fragrance<\/h3>\n

Check if the shampoo leaves a nice fragrance on the carpet. Most do. Make sure the fragrance is not too strong to the point of being nauseating.<\/p>\n

Note: <\/strong>You can also have your own fragrance by adding a few drops of your favourite essential oil to the water in the carpet cleaner.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

E. Price<\/h3>\n

The price of carpet cleaner shampoo depends on the amount of shampoo in the bottle and its concentration.<\/p>\n

For instance, the BISSELL Cotton Fresh Formula (our first pick below), comes in a 1.5L bottle but costs more than some 5L shampoos. That\u2019s because it\u2019s highly concentrated, thus packs more cleaning power than larger shampoos.<\/p>\n

If you are on a budget, you can find 5L carpet shampoos for under \u00a315 that work great. You may need to clean two or three times to get rid of particularly tough stains but they work well for odours and everyday dirt.<\/p>\n

With its 2x concentration formula, Bissell cotton fresh is the best shampoo for cleaning carpets with tough stains and odours.<\/p>\n

The shampoo comes in a 1.5L bottle, but because it is concentrated, Bissell says it is equivalent to a 3-litre bottle shampoo. Add 60ml of the shampoo for every three litres of water.<\/p>\n

Bissell cotton fresh formula works with Bissell carpet cleaners as well as any other carpet cleaning machine. You can also use it to hand clean the carpet; just mix the shampoo with water in a bucket.<\/p>\n

Stain removal oxygen technology in the shampoo works well whether you use a carpet cleaner or machine wash.<\/p>\n

The Bissell formula doesn\u2019t just clean your carpet. The shampoo contains Febreze freshness that tackles unpleasant odours and leaves your carpet smelling fresh.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not all. The Bissell shampoo also contains Scotchgard Protector that protects your carpet from further stains and soiling.<\/p>\n

The only downside of the Bissell cotton fresh shampoo is that it\u2019s more expensive than other carpet cleaner shampoo. But that\u2019s because it is more concentrated, thus has a better cleaning performance.<\/p>\n
