      Right. I also read that this rug is pure wool, no synthetic threads or sum in it. And natural fibers like wool or fur literally suck up smoke residues like sand does with water

      If it makes you feel better about the amount of water some rug cleaners use - it takes WAY more water + other resources to create a new rug, so even if you use a lot to clean it, you're still saving a lot of water compared to if you'd have bought a new one

    Nice job. I have a runner that I had to spot clean twice thanks to my dog and the cleaner did such a great job that it left to really bright spots. I put it away for the bulk of the year. Just this week I soaked it in a hot tub with OxiClean then tried to rent it cuz I don't have a power washer, then agitated of with my carpet shampooer. I don't know if it's meant for carpets or you ever use it but that stuff is amazing and that carpet is completely even. I think I needed a pressure washer to rinse it a little better.
