Tineco CARPET ONE Cruiser Smart Carpet Cleaner, Self-Cleaning and FlashDry, Deep Cleaning for Carpet and Upholstery 167℉ PowerDry 130W Powerful suction SmoothPower

We have a 20-year-old shag carpet and a household full of activity—five pets, two kids, two adults, and a rural property with plenty of dirt, trees, and gravel. Our carpet has absolutely seen better days, especially in high-traffic areas. When our old carpet cleaner finally broke beyond repair and the Carpet One went on a Black Friday sale, we grabbed it. Assembly was quick, though I did fiddle with pieces enough to cause a minor issue with the brush head not seating fully. Thankfully, even without reading the manual, I was able to fix it quickly—always a win. One of my favorite features is the display that shows when the water being pulled from the carpet is still dirty. Between knee problems and no one else vacuuming lately, the floors were overdue for attention, so I spent extra time on each spot. Once the water looked clean, I used the drying feature. While the carpet padding and deeper weave remained damp, the surface felt dry enough that my sensory issues didn’t flare when walking across it. Overnight drying finished the job. The results? Stunning. After vacuuming the next morning, the cleaned area looked dramatically better. The Carpet One separated and lifted the carpet fibers so they looked almost new again. I even took a photo—there’s a clear “No Vac” area where the fibers were still clumped together, something that persists even after a good vacuuming. The cleaned-and-vacuumed section looked fantastic. There are a few quirks. Filling the clean-water/solution tank is a bit awkward because trapped air bubbles get in the way, so I often had to stop the water, adjust the tank, and continue. Dumping the dirty water tank is easy if the clean water tank is empty—you can swing and pour one-handed. But if the clean tank is full, it’s too bottom-heavy to manage comfortably. A second handle would make a big difference. The carpet solution itself has a very faint smell that disappears completely during use, which I appreciate because it helps me sniff out the “funky” spots in the carpet and focus on them. The drying feature helps reveal those spots too. The machine is surprisingly easy on my chronic pain. Our old cleaner required too much pushing, pulling, and lifting. The Carpet One has a motor assist that activates with minimal pressure, moving the machine forward and backward at a selectable speed—such a relief. The water tank is easy to reach and remove, and once you get the hang of lining it up, reinstalling it is simple. The self-cleaning feature also works beautifully—very similar to our Tineco wet/dry vac for hard floors. Overall, I’m thrilled with this purchase so far. It brought life back to a very tired carpet and made deep cleaning manageable again.

The Tineco carpet One cruiser is an excellent carpet cleaner. Is very effective in removing stains from my carpet both old and new. It comes with an all-in-one tank that has both dirty water and clean in separate compartments. Getting going was a breeze straight out of the box as the handle and the tanks were the main things to be installed. I love how easy it is to use and how there are three speed modes for it to assist you in moving it across the room, low medium and high. This is very helpful as the self-propelling function allows me to do many areas and not get overly tired of moving the vacuum back and forth. Has a dry feature built in as well and dries the wet areas once shampooed. The results speak for themselves as my carpets are much cleaner now and all that dirt was removed. Cleaning the dirty water tank is very easy, just take it out and dump the water. It came with a pre-cleaner and shampoo to get started. The handle has an LED display and displays whether the carpet is dirty or clean by a red or a blue indicator light. Excellent feature. Super easy to switch modes between dry and clean and max for deep clean. The cord can easily be stowed away on the back handle with the built-in latches. Great quality machine for an excellent clean. Love the look and definitely worth the money!

WOW! The Carpet One cruiser did not disappoint! I received it today and cleaned my guest room. I had no idea my floors needed to be cleaned until I saw the dirty water. Works very well, took less than 3 minutes to assemble, super easy as I had a phone in one hand while I put it together. The two giant big tires in the back help move it around the house and on the carpets. The clean water tank is easy to fill. The cord length is nice as there was more than enough cord to go around the room. It suctioned very well and left my carpet almost 100% dry ( about 96%). The carpet one cruiser looks very stylish. I am amazed that I was able to assemble and wash my guest room in less than 10 minutes. Very confident. PLUS,, my carpet is practically dry! Some key things I find very useful from it 1) It has autopropelar to help keep the machine moving forward, creating less strain on me 2) auto voice prompts- tells me when my dirty tank is full, when I need to refill the clean water tank and reminds me to clean the machine 3) comes with a storage stand, this is nice because it keeps any moisture still on the machine, off the floor. 4) The indicator light, I like knowing if the carpet is clean 5) Giant dirty water tank means I don't have to dump it out constantly 5) Able to change the modes from"auto" " max" and " dry" I am looking forward to washing the other rooms in the house!

This is Farr too complicated to operate. You have to use your phone to set the type of carpet and depth of pile. The instructions are horribly short and not helpful. Nothing online is really any better. When I’m running a carpet cleaner, I don’t want to have to mess with my phone. The complaints about the water reservoirs being too small are spot on. Expensive carpet cleaner that is not worth it.

Does a fantastic job with cleaning and drying the floor. Only issue is that if you have thick carpet it may stop working and tell you to clean the brush roller despite the roller being clean. The self cleaning process is really neat!

Pros this CARPET ONE Cruiser is amazing and cleans extremely well and I love the motorized wheels. Now I clean on High Power so I will frequently change out dirty water but I don't mind because I get a pause from cleaning constantly with my Rheumatoid Arthritis and it's a nice short break between cleaning. Changing water is a breeze and just two cap fills of cleaning solution is beautiful and nothing to waste or guess. Yes worth the money and quality is great.

The machine itself is well designed and works well. it is adjustable for different carpet settings and even more customizable through the app. The heated dry function works shockingly well. After a few passes it had nearly dried the carpet and after a further hour ion natural drying, it was pretty much dried. The handheld attachment works great on upholstery and hard to reach corners. I found that dissembling and cleaning it was very easy as well. Very happy with this purchase. it's a little on the pricey side but for sure worth it.

Six months of usage then internal parts falling apart, all damaged which translates into clean water mixing with dirty water, thus not working any longer, the rubber components inside the reservoir are of poor quality. However same following day I claim for warranty, tineco promptly answered me back and will send a new tank for free. Great job on warranty service.

What garbage. Trying to connect to wi-fi with no success. Probably installed malware on my network system. It leaks so much damn water out cause of so many damn connection points. Exhaust is on the bottom and releases the same crap from the carpet I'm trying to remove all over the just cleaned carpet. It has the air dust collector that might seem like an awesome idea but it's probably a petri dish to add more bacteria straight into the carpet mixed with moist carpet and with the "flashdry", germs, mold and bacteria love warmth. Seems like it's coddling an egg before hatching. What the f... is that white stuff built up on the rubber inside the dirty water tank? WTF!!! Clean and scrub it all you want it just gets stuck in material. Your efforts are futile. All that crap gets blown when it dries then gets blasted out soon as the device is turned on. Clean water breather is shared with the dirty water tank, is my clean water now contaminated??? Suction is so powerful, water dropped gets passed right and get blown out the side ports spreading germs and bacteria all over just cleaned carpet. FFS. $900 what a scam. I got my Bissell for $180 and does a better job.

Much better than competitors

Great after first use on stairs and low shag carpets with their underlays. The dry indicator light may be just a timer, not sure.
