Has anyone used this in a carpet steam cleaner?

I didn't try that. This is more like a concentrated Mr. Clean floor wash, I don't think it can be used as a carpet cleaner and I wouldn't recommend using it in a carpet cleaning machine.

I myself have not used it on my carpet yet. I did use it on my furniture though. It's not like a carpet\upholstery cleaner where it applies hot soapy water and extracts it. The steam loosens and lifts the dirt to the surface and you have to wipe it off with a towel. That's what I did anyway. It's a little bit of work but well worth it. My furniture looks like new again. Carpets would have to be done the same way I'm sure. I don't think it was designed to clean big carpet jobs. I would go with an extractor type cleaner if carpet cleaning is what you're mainly after.

Do not put cleaner in the machine. But I have used cleaner on the floor then used the steamer which worked well for really stubborn grout stains n the tile floor. Also, the high heat of the steam is supposed to sanitize. I did not feel the need to use cleaner to disinfect, just for stubborn stains

I use it to clean carpets and zap pet stains. Its a miracle and just with tap water. Works better than my big Hoover Carpet Cleaner. I put a pad on and hold it for a minute at full steam.

Yes, it can be used in a carpet cleaner. I use it in the carpet cleaner and use it to clean all of our carpets and also use it to clean upholstered furniture. I like it better than other single purpose carpet cleaning and upholstery cleaning products I've used. I've used most brands - I find this works better. We have many cats, so accidents and marking do occasionally happen. I've tried a bunch of other products...I'm buying this one again today because it works well, works as a carpet/upholstery cleaning solution but also works on hard surfaces. This is what I typically use as a multi-purpose cleaner around the house...and also what I use (same concentration) for barf patrol on other surfaces...carpet and such. The neutralizer by itself without the added cleaning agent works well on areas where you can't wipe or blot (like concrete or grout). I'm very pleased with this product all around. I bought a gallon of this and a gallon of the non-cleaner variety in April and I am still using the same gallon. A gallon goes a long ways because it is highly concentrated and you only use a small amount to mix a bottle of multi-purpose cleaner or in your carpet cleaning machine.

I don't think it is approved for use in a steam cleaner, just because they all usually have their own brand of cleaners they recommend for their own brand. BUT....what I usually do is clean up as much as the mess with a paper towel, then spray with the odor eliminator. Let it sit for about half an hour then run the steam cleaner over it. Works wonders.

I'm assuming you mean in addition to the carpet cleaner detergent, is that correct? If so, I don't see why not. It's color-safe, it doesn't generate a lot of bubbles. However, I would use very little the first time to make sure that you don't have a bubbly mess.

I've been very pleased with this product as an aerosol, but my steam cleaner specifically says not to put any products in it! Perhaps a different brand might not be so specific. I'd check the instructions.

I have a carpet cleaner. I mix up a batch, and use it in the rinse water. Hope that helps!

I would not purchase this item with cleaning carpets in mind. While I have used it for some spot cleaning, just shooting steam into a carpet has limited cleaning ability. It is like steaming a spot and then blotting it up with a towel. The cleaning comes with the blotting process, which is limited at best. It is not like other carpet cleaners that spray a cleaner into the carpet and then suck it back out, which is more effective.

I've used it once in a carpet cleaner and I have one that has a heater in it, so I used it without heat and it did ok. I'm still waiting to see results tho because I don't think one go around will do it since we have five cats. When filling the reservoir I just followed the fill directions for using a concentrated liquid and it was fine. Just know that if you use the settings for "high traffic" on your carpet , it suds up way too much. So only use the regular setting.

I'm not aware of any carpet cleaning product, consumer or pro, that actually produces steam. Steam can be quite dangerous and harmful, and even though the phrase is used almost universally, it's used in reference to hot water.

Definitely good for disinfecting, it's got a great steam stream, but I'm not sure about it getting out stains. It did take some mold stains out of my carpet, but I needed to pretreat first.

Yes..I did..but I purchased that same steamer and a lot of this will spill out..most gets wasted. I used the whole bottle one one clean. I won't use that steamer again or buy this bissell mint scent either.

The steamer will "sanitize" but will not CLEAN carpet. The steam brings out a freshness, but carpet requires a "brush type" action and suction for actual cleaning. If you use carpet deoderizer powders and vacumme first, then steam, it really brings a freshness and pleasant aroma into the air. I hope that helps you.

I haven't tried to spot clean my carpet with this unit yet but I'm sure it would work. Carpets are steam cleaned all the time. If you're unsure if your carpet is color fast I'd first try it in an inconspicuous spot. This has got to be one of the very best products I've ever purchased.
