    Not sure if others would be interested, but I would love to see a video of how you clean up the room when you are done. How do the gutters that catch the water get cleaned? How do your tools get cleaned, etc. You have an awesome channel. You do amazing work! Thank you for sharing your work with us.

    Yours is probably one of my new favourite carpet cleaning channels! The way you put your videos together is perfect, getting to see the work being done from different angles is great; the length of your videos are not too long, and the slow-motion shots aren't too slow. I also really enjoy the water suction vacuum, and 'Dirt Reynolds' and 'R2 Clean2' make me smile every time. Glad to see you got up okay from the fall, hope you're all right after!

      Okay, so this may be tmi or sappy, but.... I miscarried earlier this year and would've been 9 months pregnant right now. It's been a really tough day, but as I saw the colors and pattern on the rug start peeking out, I was thinking of how it's exactly the type of rug I would own - like my personality/tastes personified in a rug. Then as I was having that thought, you squeegeed and I watched so much of the vibrant foam leave behind the restored beauty of the rug and it hit me so powerfully that even when we feel broken or useless or changed like this rug, that innate beauty of who we are is still there and I felt like I was as worth it and as beautiful as this rug.
      Maybe that sounds cheesy, but I'm still crying as I write this and wanted to thank you.
      Also, ...if you still have it, would you be open to selling this rug to me? I understand if not, but I'd appreciate buying it for the sentimentality if that's a possibility.

    Your channel is my favorite carpet cleaning channel. Thank you for making sure that the carpets are truly clean in the end. It's so much more satisfying. In fact, watching a carpet cleaning video where they don't make sure that the water is clear by the end pretty well ruins the ASMR aspect of it for me. lol

    What a beautiful rug. I am appalled that it was neglected so badly. That someone allowed this rug to get into this condition is a crying shame.

    What a lot of red dirt. I like the close ups of your work. It makes it more real. The rug was really lovely. Maybe it was stained some by the red dirt, but the colors were still pretty. Nice work.
