We have all seen the Orcek commercials on TV for their vacuum cleaners, but they also have a line of rug and carpet shampooers and this is the top of the line coming in at $400.00 but with a lot of extras including tons of shampoo. The Oreck Rinse-A-Matic Steemer Ultra�® SKU: M800A
cleans not only carpets and rugs, but also floors. It has a special rinse cycle and when you are done washing, it will dry also.

http://www.cleanking.com/details.asp?ProdID=151
Koblenz is well known as a manufacturer of commercial floor cleaners and they do have a good reputation for quality, so their home products are made to last. This one goes for around $250.00. They have a special flow through system that quickly converts the solution to foam, thereby preventing the carpet from becoming soaking wet. If you have ever used an older machine, you know how messy this can get.

Priced at about $250.000, this is one of Hoover’s best. It is hard to find one in this price range that is a steamer cleaner. And this one has 6 brush heads, so it really gets down to business.

You get a lot for your money with this one at a price of about $150.00. While it does not have the steam feature, the tank is especially built to keep the water hot for about 30 minutes. If you have ever had to keep replacing or adding hot water, you will appreciate this feature for sure.
