Can the Rug Doctor be used to clean... rugs?

As opposed to carpets?



The basic process must be the same, but I wonder how much trouble is caused by the fact that a rug is not fixed to the floor.



Does anyone have experience with this?


Yes, you can use a Rug Doctor on a rug. You will definitely need to anchor one end of the rug. Remember to clean the anchored end, and use a stiff brush to set the nap.

I have a small professional extractor, and use a heavy coffee table as an anchor.
