UPDATE:1 year and still cranks within the first 2-3 pulls. Probably will buy another when this one finally does bite the dust ru-vid.comUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX . No issues at all. Very happy with it.UPDATE: After 6 months of use and over 70 uses I would still highly recommend this pressure washer. It does vibrate a decent amount but never had it “walk” like others have mentioned. No oil leaks, still seems to run like the day I bought it. Still cranks within 2-3 pulls every time. Very happy with my purchase!Have used it about a dozen times now. Plenty of power, cranks up on 1-2 pulls every time. My only complaint would be I wish it was a little taller to make it easier to walk with it (hits my ankles a lot) and that the two hose connections were a little further apart but it hasn’t caused me any issues. Seems to run a good 1-1/2-2 hrs on a full tank, overall a well built machine and definitely worth the money in my opinion.
Hi Kat Chen, 😂 I’m so sorry, and this one is so long as well :-( Thank you for your comment anyway, and just in case you wanted just one more rug video please check out my new one here, it’s much better ;-) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iDJG-os-_lU.html
Olivia Smith how are you going to tell me no, and then say “probably” you don’t even know a little bit about the business. Read what I said before commenting.
An old couple whom were married about 60 years was asked that young people marry and divorce in a few years, how they keep their marriage that long. Answer was awasome "We grew in war years, those were the times broken was not thrown away instead fixed, dirty was not changed instead washed" I remembered their answer when I watch video and read comments.
Tan Tan your reading comprehension must have been horrible in school. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out what someone is saying despite having typos.
Darwin your comment is so funny and true. I don’t know how but the cleaning process gives me so much satisfaction to watch (I don’t think I would enjoy doing this myself 😂😂)
Who would EVER think that a video of washing a rug would rack up nearly 7 million views? 7 MILLION! I must admit, it IS a good rug-washing video! The most satisfying part was seeing clear water draining from the tumbler! Mmmm, satisfying!
everyone talking about what a waste of water.. go to a meat factory or a plant factory or literally almost any factory, we use water on so much shit lmao
@@Karmic_Retribution I use to scrub floors and wax them with the same kind if side to side scrubbers...there is no way they needed that much water...2 or 3 passes with that scrubber and it can't get any cleaner. They just drained shamus' tank to clean one rug 😂
Some say washing the rug costs more than purchasing a new one. Thats just simply not the case. In my living room there is a Silk Isfahan Rug that I purchase some time ago as a gift for my wife. She had wanted one, but never could work up the courage to spend the money on it. The rug cost a little over 4 grand at the time when i purchased it. My wife was ecstatic, but little did I know she would decide the best place for it would be the living room. Tried to convince her to put it in our bedroom or home office, but nope. She wanted it in the living room. Anyway the moral of the story is not every rug is $100 piece of nylon garbage that you buy from Walmart. What I have is not even close to the most expensive Isfahan Persian Rug but its not something you would call your local carpet cleaning business to clean and you definitely wouldn't toss it for a new one.
@@arnavrawat9864 envy off charts. I'm so sorry you're poor, do you feel better? Do you know who's poor too? People living in center Asia, growing silk worms in trees and knotting for months a carpet? Don't they have the right to sell it al the best price they can get?
Beware of oriental rug cleaning companies that come to your house, look at the rug, and give you a ridiculous price, carrying the rug off with them. Instead pick the thing up yourself and take it to a reputable oriental rug cleaner, someone who sells and repairs these wonderful rugs.
Because its satisfying to see something get clean...we are things in our lives like a "dirty rug". We wish it was this easy to get cleaned up. Our finances. Bill's. Messy relationship our credit scores lol ... Or...maybe we just have dirty rugs and instead of cleaning em we watch others getting cleaned. I'm not a psychologist, but I did just save alot of money on my car insurance by switching to Geico 👍😁
Fascinating! There is such an investment in cleaning equipment, very impressed. I'll never complain about rug cleaning prices again! Thank you for a very informative video, loved it!
15 Years carpet Cleaning experience, this is the boss way to clean loose carpets, no question. Domestically we apply a similar process but with way less water.
I have a whole house of Persian rugs and I place them on cement slab and used diluted laundry soap, then hose them down with a garden hose and hang over fence to dry. I need help lifting the larger ones but it costs almost nothing. That equipment looks quite costly. The rugs dry quickly in the open air, come out wonderfully clean, and hold up perfectly.
Then imagine living in England... Rugs (and carpets) everywhere!!! Even in bathrooms... (carpets being glued to the floor... being even dirtier than this...)

I wash my area rugs in the driveway with a garden hose, laundry soap and a squeegee (to remove water). Arizona sun will dry the rug in a couple of hours. The key is a small amount of laundry soap.
Yeah but I bet the rug in this video cost a bit more money than the ones we have. A local JCPenney store was closing because of the pandemic so I went in for a peek. They had some gorgeous rugs. I bent down to take a look at the price tag but couldn't make any sense of it. I asked for the sales rep to tell me what the tag said. He straight face said to me "$23,000 and it's marked down to $3,100". They had a stack of them! I guess that's what a Persian rug goes for, I had no idea.
If it’s in a high traffic area and lots of people walk across it each day, either with shoes on or bare feet it can easily get this dirty over time. I washed my car Matts and even the back ones that are barely touched were pretty dirty because it had been that long since there were last cleaned with more than a vacuum.
Not practical for most people. I cleaned 3 of my niece's filthy carpets outside using a hose, long handled boat brush for scrubbing. Then rinsed. Dried them using a squeegee, Shop Vac, and suctioning from carpet shampoo machine. It still took 3 days to completely dry the carpets outside. Just saying -- if you completely saturate a carpet plan on lots of drying time.
Hi Mary, thank you for your comment. This is why you should send them to me to take care of ;-) Our rugs dry over night in our drying g room :-) Drying most certainly is the hardest part without the right equipment. Best wishes, Troy
@Katherine Sherman It's done this way for a reason. I'm sure if you use your brain and think about it for a while you might just figure it out for yourself.
Thaught the same for the entire video. Not sure if washing it one more time would fix that, or if the last "stains" are just parts that look darker because they are a bit wetter than the rest.
Somebody never clean own rug ....definitly dont see real old Persian rug on eyes in lifetime ......this big tubes spin as well heat ..so detergents work better when are heated then watered again ....but Persian are only air dry ......you ppl give opinions about something what you font have clue off......modern rugs are no rugs it's justlarge ugly polyester trash not worth nothing and with horriddesignes.
It's good and informative for all of us who already purchased that "rug sander" whichcan be used in our rug washing bassin in our basement, wthe one next to that long tube - kind of normal house holding device that is being used. But for the ones who does not play banjo there are still some questions that are not being answered.
I know its a joke... but really it could be, it depends on the quality of the rug after all. From Ikea? Reuse it in your garden or give it to recycling. Real high quality handmade persian or turkish carpet? Those can be handled as art objects and can cost millions.
Th am you so much for your lovely comment :-) Best wishes, Troy P.S. you can see my new video here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4zbv_w93qUc.html
I like you rinse it twice, wash both sides of carpet. Well done. thumb up and subscribed. Not many carpet cleaners understand and know how to clean it properly.
Awesome video. Would love to do this for a living. To all the people having: these rugs are often passed down from multiple generations and they are irreplaceable. “Buying a new one” is a broken mentality. Why would you buy something new that was made by a machine in a factory when you could restore something beautiful that was made by hand?

My late boss had a rug this size. He also had 4 Havanese dogs,that he added to his will, in which I inherited one after they were eventually split up. The carpet cleaner had been to his house to clean/ attempt to clean his rug. The dogs had saturated it with so much pee over the years, that the fibers were coming up like if it had been exposed to radiation treatments. One day we called the carpet guy, and he refused to come, told us just to put that poor rug out of it's misery. We did just that. My boos bough another rug, and I put the old one by the Road side. Within 3 mins of me walking from the road, into the house. That carpet was GONE from the curb. I guess that saying it true. One man's trash. I hope they got it nice and clean, as it was a very expensive rug.
"I feel incomplete....since it didn't come totally clean. Made it unworth the waste of water. Damn you, OCD!" Sorry. Just going around correcting peoples' spelling.
Funny, in Iran I used to watch Village men and women wash carpets; first the men beat them to loosen the dirt, then women would beat them in water and soap. After a day of beating wet with soap, rinsing, beating water out , leaving them in the sun on rocks to dry, they looked splendid.
@@ZazzilasArden the problem isnt that the water cycle doesnt exist you ignorant dumbass. Its that 3% of all the water on earth is fresh water, but as we use it that number goes down while the ocean percent goes up. Do you really think water comes back down directly over the spot it evaporated
Hi Teresa Santos, thank you so much for you lovely comment. Please check out my newest video here, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iDJG-os-_lU.html This one is quite old. Best wishes, Troy

Hi haphazard, thank you for your comment. Prices start from £15.50 per meter, this rug cost around £400.00 Please see my latest video here and let me know what you think ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4zbv_w93qUc.html Best wishes Troy
And in Turkey.... you just wait until the Winter snow and take the rug outside, place it upside down onto the snow and beat the hell out of it with brooms. Leave it outside and repeat the next day, then pick up the rug and put it in the winter sunshine facing up and beat it with the brooms again. Leave outside to dry....and pray it doesn't snow again. Then bring in the clean 400 year old rug and repeat in 364 days.
Suzanne Rushton I don’t think my parents Turkish neighbour even bothers anymore. I do remember going to one of the neighbours friends home and the friend’s two young kids were helping their dad wash one of their rugs.

I'd just like to point out a few things A) There's such a thing as sentimentality. B)Some rugs are vintage and can sell well if cleaned C) Rugs aren't cheap
Nice I had a few rugs, I hose them then put them on wire rack and angled them The guys in Boston dip them them pulled them out hanging with full water weight Then shaped like hourglasses I went back to doing it myself Not all pros are pros
