I enjoyed the machine. It did a decent job on my car seats where my dirty dog sits a lot (I should probably invest in a seat protector). I have light tan cloth seats. I vacuumed then used the spray solution on the stains. It came up with a little vacuuming and dried fairly quickly. I like the scent of the cleaner. Not overpowering but pleasant clean smell. I used it on my den carpet and it did a great job there as well. Definitely will use a LOT due to my inside dog.
