Hi
I've always got on great with the Kirby shampoo system when used as directed with genuine Kirby shampoo.
We even had a professional shampoo a carpet with a <a name="start_29495.329511"></a>extractor system (I forget the name of the machine he used at this moment in time) and I'd say the Kirby got better results. The carpet seems to of got dirtier quicker as well.
Why I understand that there are extractor systems rated better than the Kirby in the (platinum level) there are plenty of extractor systems in the same (gold) level as the Kirby and plenty of <strong>extractor systems rated worse than the Kirby in the (silver and bronze) levels. So to say this method is bad and this one is good isn't true.</strong>
But at the end of the day the Kirby has still meets the CRI gold level standards for
<ul>
<li>Soil removal!</li>
<li>Water removal</li>
<li>Resists Re-soiling!</li>
<li>Does not affect carpet dyes or fibers</li>
</ul>
And for a domestic home shampooer system that's very good. So yes it is <a name="start_29495.329511"></a>effective.
