Should I buy a refurbished rug doctor?Or what is a cheaper really good carpet shampooer I can buy for the carpets in my apartment. I have some traffic in my apartment. Mostly from me and my pets. And the occasional pet accidents.
A Rug Doctor is over kill unless you can get it dirt cheap. BISSELL makes a good product and you might get one refurbished and that would be cheaper.

It might cost more than the Bissell or Hoover but thats because it works better and lasts longer. I've borrowed my parents brand new Bissell and it doesn't clean anywhere near as well as the Rug Doctor rentals. I have 2 jack russell's so I need to clean up stains frequently. The refurbished machines on the rugdoctor site are blue, not red so they are not pulled from the rental stores. They're probably returns or overstock from Costco or WalMart so I would trust them to be reliable and not used much. They don't cost much more than a Bissel or Hoover so I think its worth it to buy the highest quality machine. Even if its a hundred bucks more, it will last forever where most other machines seem to break after 2 years. The refurbished machines also have a 5 year warranty just like the brand new Rug Doctors. Buying a refurbished machine is probably a great way to save some cash on a machine that usually runs $500-600 and I trust the brand all day long.
