    As a professional carpet/sofa cleaner i have to say that this method works ONLY in surface. There is no deep cleaning and all the dust and acarea which they leave INSIDE the coushions are not removed this way. This is just for refreshing the fabric and if you do that frequently your sofa will smell bad eventually because of the dust inside which it gets wet.
    My friendly advice to you: Vaccum your sofas first for deep cleaning and THEN rub the fabric.

      You cant remove all the dirt through vacuum. Vacuum is only to remove water from washed sofa but the material inside the fabric works like a filter which hold all the dust inside. So your comment is not accurate

    I actually tried this solution, albeit skeptically, on a stain on our west elm couch. I didn’t use the lid, just the solution, a white microfiber cloth, and my hand. Lo and behold the white cloth was coming up dingy after a few rubs. I repeated several times and then went over the rest of the couch lightly. I also rinsed the cloth with water and rubbed the stain and couch as a final step, as some suggested. To my surprise, the next day when dry, the stain was completely gone. I was shocked.
    I couldn’t be happier. Saving this video.

    As a pro cleaner, I would like to make a suggestion for DIY. The lid thing is pretty cool, however the dish soap is not. Use a foaming carpet and upholstery cleaner made for your car instead of dish soap. If you ever have it professionally cleaned after using dish soap, please tell the pro what you did lol. This stuff will foam up to the point of him having to use a lot of defoamer to clean it and yes it will cost extra. Dish soap may feel soft after cleaning but it is quite sticky and will attract a lot of dirt. The foaming upholstery cleaner will dry as a fine powder that is easily vacuumed out, leaving little to no residue. Great video and It could get you out of a bind, but use the foaming upholstery cleaner on the same spots to remove some of the dish soap as soon as possible.

    11/14/22: I like the concept, but it would have been nice to see if the couch and rug were dirty to begin with and then to have done a section at a time to see the difference. Your couch and rug looked wonderful, so I really couldn't see how well it cleaned, but I have a chair that can use this technique and I will definitely try it. I think it's pretty cool.

    • @ckmoore101

      Thats because its a dumb idea, and no better than simply putting a rag in your hand and scrubbing. And since the lid is concave, the pressure point is a thin ring, instead of much more surface area of pressure from just your own hand.
      Idiotic.

      It probably works well with furniture that is lightly soiled. If it's real dirty, it will take more time (and cloths) You could see some soiling on the cloth when she unwrapped the lid. Looks like it will work ok. The more often you clean your upholstery, it will be quicker to do.

    I liked your idea. I did notice that you cleaned the dirty couch area, and then showed the dirt that covered the clean cloth. Also, as soon as you rinsed the “dirty” cloth back into the clean water, you could see just how much dirtier the water looked - that proves it picked up the dirt! Kudos to you for finding an easier method that doesn’t require the carpet to be soaked with unnecessary amounts of water!!! I have a very old beautiful wool carpet that would have cost me $800.00 to have professionally cleaned. I couldn’t afford that. I used this method, and was so impressed - the colours in my carpet looked so much brighter! ( it was an 8’x5’ carpet). It is also a much easier way to clean carpeted stairs - we have two indoor cats - i can’t thank you enough! I’m from Ontario, Canada.

      Use vinegar and a few drops of any essential oil you like, instead of the soap. Of course, add it to the water. I’d say about a 1/2 cup vinegar to the water. The vinegar removes odors and is a fantastic cleaner, and when it dries, the vinegar smell is gone.

      Please read comments left by investigations by sure shot.. not unique or different than just using a drop of soap and water. It does not remove deep embedded stains. We are to believe the pot lid acts like a steamer due to the wet microfiber and mentioned chemicals. Yes it appears to clean but so will warm water without a pot lid.

      @@karenlegebokoff6969 it's the edges of the pan that make the most contact with the cushions doing the scrubbing with help of the microfiber cloth. The circular shape just makes it cover surface area more smoothly and quickly, as well as easily hover over the convex shapes of couch cushions. That's why there is a faint ring of dust on the cloth when she removes it from the pot lid but you have to look closely.

    We professional carpet cleaners actually often use something similar called VLM "Very Low Moisture." At home, I use a folded towel on small spots to absorb spilled liquids. Then apply Woolite FOAM upholstery cleaner ($5). After applying the foam, rub, don't scrub the area with a dry towel. It adds very little moisture so it does not wick up any soil from beneath. Repeat the next day if a stain wicks back up. PS: Leave a dry towel on the spot overnight to help prevent and stains from wicking.

  • @JerseyLynne
    @JerseyLynne Год назад +2

    If there is any dampness left of the surface, it will contain soap, and soap is a dirt magnet and will attract dirt faster on the newly cleaned surface and with repeated use may affect the quality of the fiber. You want the fiber to be in its squeaky clean so dirt falls off.

    Thanks for the useful and creative tip. I followed and clean my carpets and couch and bed nicely with this. But just one comment, i feel the baking soda and detergent dosage is too high. After the bed and couch and carpets dried from cleaning, my hands and legs felt sticky when i came into contact with them (e.g sitting or standing or walking in the couch and carpets). Upon rinsing my hands and legs, they felt very soapy. And when i walk or sit on these furniture again, the same repeats and it was very uncomfortable as they felt sticky and when i rinse my hands they are soapy. So i had to clean these furnitures again with same method but using just clean water. And i had to clean each of them 4 to 5 times with lots of cloth-rinsing in between in order to get rid of the soapiness likely due to the baking soda / detergent. So in the end, it tires me out totally and didnt felt easy or helpful. I am surprised nobody else experiences this from following the tip. Just a headsup in case you are going to try. And also to the video owner, you might want to revise your recommendation.

    I just used this method on a mattress, that I had cleaned several times, with many different methods. One was actually a chemical to remove urine stains used at a school. Those seemed to make the mattress more yellow, and the outline of the stain never disappeared. I just used it, on this same mattress, knowing the mattress was excellant, but could not give it to anyone with those "stains". Lo and behold it worked, and I did not by any means soak the mattress, It came out beautifully, and for a young mom of 4 children, whose mattress had springs sticking out, she will be very happy and safe to use it. Being a spring mattress, rather than foam, there is not that deep depth of fabric to have to penetrate, I do not know how to clean the foam, type mattresses.

    We keep our futon mattress clean h just covering it with first a zip up plastic cover then two pretty fitted sheets. Vwe have asthma so all the couches and beds need a tough zip up plastic sheet first then the fitted sheets. VI love this because then you do with you futon couch like you do with your bed, just change the sheets nothing could be easier! We have a cat too and trying to sell the house so cleaning has to be frequent! My advice is avoid mini blinds in your kitchen. Cleaning them can be a nightmare due to the sticky junk they get. Go with pretty washable curtains instead. I our shower we just buy the cheap plastic ones and hang a washable curtain on the outside. The plastic ones are cheaper than fancy vinyl printed one and easier to clean and you can replace them cheaper than the vinyl ones and reuse them as camping tarps under your tents while the cloth like outside just washes in your washer. Futons are easier to move too

      I mean why work so hard when you also have to scrub bathtubs, toilets, sinks, tables, counters, and floors, and maybe do yardwork. Take seriously my advice and your window covering and shower cleaning will be easier! Save blinds for living spaces and bedrooms and offices where they only get dusty not greasy or moldy. And ditch vinyl curtains and take my suggestion. We have a whole collection of vinyl we use as tarps while the s cheap plastic one and the cloth outer one is still in use. We have no wax and wood floors but I will try this hack on carpeting would it work?

It typically refers to the "tingly feeling" that travels from the head downward that some experience in response to certain sounds, feelings, or descriptions. These can include soft whispering, crinkling paper, or a gentle touch. Bob Ross was one of the first to introduce this during his painting shows with his soft voice and the sounds of his paint brushes sweeping against the canvas.
