*NEW* VAX Spotwash DUO | Bargain, Compact, Powerful Car Detailing Tool

[@Calendyr]

Pro tip here. Instead of using the cleaning solution in the tank, just put water in that tank. For the cleaning solution, use either a spray bottle, or even better, a garden sprayer. Soak the surface to be cleaned with the cleaning solution, agitate with a brush and then use the machine to spray water and extract at the same time.

Hello do you know what the difference is between the blue model and the red model other than price

[@alexisamtosta]

@@Security2U Its the same thing im trying to find. The red one is the Spot Wash and the blue is the Duo Spot Wash. Estetically, the only difference is in the colour.

[@may-t6342]

@@alexisamtosta Why is the blue one cheaper though?

[@neilhiggins3167]

@@alexisamtosta I believe its the additional tool kit that makes the blue one a 'Duo'

[@emrankhanlearnwithme4474]

The blue one comes with a seccond pair of identical tools. The price is cheaper only due to different promotions. Definitely buy the blue one.

[@rogerandout808]

I got the Bissell one a couple of years back - it's one of those products I could buy without getting too much flak. I told the better half I'm getting it to tidy up the kids mess - she assumes it's the house, but I mean for the car!

[@MrAarongilbey]

Hey mate, is that machine any good? Seen mixed reviews online about it, mostly around the hose failing and awkward to empty/clean out. Cheers

[@rogerandout808]

@@MrAarongilbey I was happy with it - I mean I only use it every once in a while so I'm not using it like a pro does. I use just warm water in the tanks, and 1% Surfex so I don't lose the colour. It can be fiddly, but only when loading and emptying the tanks. I got the Bissell one for Pets about 18 months ago, and just waited for it to be on sale. It doesn't have that self clean function, so that's where I'd say the Vax one here might be better.

[@readerj01]

I bought the new Bissell Spot Wash a couple of months ago (for impending, new puppy accidents) but saw the potential straight away for the car. This type of cleaner is ideal for tight areas so perfect for car seats and carpets. Spray on, leave, agitate then vacuum off to nearly dry. Dead easy to dismantle to clean and I also use the purge through for the hoses to keep them fresh. Don't know how I ever did without one.

[@kuyamoto9195]

Had the George for years, and I've only ever used that for spot cleaning really. It's unwieldy and getting a bit temperamental now. Fell for this hook line and sinker with the £30 quid off. Thanks a lot Jon!

[@nickcurtain2084]

I've been looking at spot cleaners for a couple of months now and your excellent review and discount prompted me to order one today. I was unsure whether to go for the Bissel or Vax, as they do basically the same thing, but thirty quid is a substantial saving for the amount I will use the cleaner. A great offer Jon and much appreciated.

[@TorrentitNeo]

Like a few others i've got the Bissel spot cleaner, great bit of kit and was shocking to see how much dirt came out of my car seats, also great around the house and wouldn't be without it now.

[@owensteele1645]

Bought one yesterday after watching this video. Ninety-nine pounds only. From Curries. I was surprised how much dirt it sucked out of my Honda S2000's thick velour carpeted footwells, that had mats from new as well. I thought the carpets were immaculate but no they weren't. The carpets are now a very rich charcoal colour again now after working the nozzle until the water in the waste tank became crystal clear. Works brilliantly, I love the long hose. Decent little powerhouse of a machine. Cracking investment.

[@J.A.M.17.11]

Ive just bought the vax, and i have an 06 S2000! GREAT MOTORS

[@johnbrown3951]

I purchased the Vax Home wash duo a couple of weeks ago but not tried it out yet. Looks a good addition to my detailing kit. Thanks for explaining the process very timely and helpful.

[@aaronalp2639]

I’ve the Bissell spotclean pro (they all are pretty similar in this price range) just the pro had slightly larger liquid capacity (at the time of purchase). They’re super handy machines to have. We have a puppy that’s toilet training so it’s been spending a lot of time in the house dealing with accidents. Such versatile little machines for the car and the house!

[@fordyford]

I'll be getting the Bissel one eventually as my car is now 6 years old and overdue for a good wet vac. The Bissel spot cleaner looks very similar and works the same way as that Vax Spot Wash. Thanks for the review, good to know these units really are powerful enough to get really good results.

[@altypeRR]

It reminds me of the Bissel one that has been out for years. Personally I have a bissel pro heat which combines both. It has the hose and tool like the vax but is also an upright machine for the house. Plus it heats the water as you go along. I just add my usual APC to it rather than using their fluids.

[@timjury7842]

I brought this yesterday and such a good product. Used it on my car today and the results are awesome, my car looks as good as new

[@juicerj1430]

Hi , great video Jon I use the Rug Doctor spot remover which I've been delighted with for the last 4 years Nice to see that vax have come up with a very similar machine at a great price . Worth mentioning that 4 litres of Rug Doctor carpet solution is about £18 (bargain),smells great and works well Keep up the good work

[@coffeeguy6673]

I bought this just before Christmas 2022 and it's excellent, also purchased the Vax cordless version for doing stuff in my car. I could run an extension lead out to the road for this one but I like cordless in situations where I'm not near a power outlet. Cheers

[@marklewin541]

I got the Bissell one a year or so ago and it's the best buy ever, from around the house with young kids or the car

[@stevegreer1963]

I have a similar compact extractor made by Bissell, the SpotClean model. Now, thanks to you Jon, I’m heading in the garage to clean my carpets and mats.

[@nickcurtain2084]

Following my previous comment, the Vax unit arrived within 24 hours, as promised - excellent. I read all the material and assembled the unit with ease. Within a couple of hours I'd cleaned the seats in my wife's car and the floor mats in mine. In both cases I was astonished at the dirt the Vax extracted, particularly the Fiesta seats, which I considered to be fairly clean. According to the instructions, the small bottle of solution would only be sufficient to perform one large clean, so I decided to fill with water just above the small clean line and added about a quarter of the bottle as a tester. I know Vax want you to use their product for obvious reasons, but other reviewers seem to have used other products quite successfully and as Surfex HD is low foaming I decided to take the risk and used a spray bottle as well with a 1:20 solution. Both the seats and mats look astonishing and I'm so pleased the Vax is now in my cleaning arsenal. Thanks Jon - really appreciated.

[@fog1014]

This looks the same as my Hoover Spot Clean but blue instead of red. I got when I bought my first car which was used, but I wanted to make new to me. Great option for DIYers. Plus it works amazing with using a drill brush to agitate and loosen up dirt before with a carpet cleaner in a spray bottle and just hot water in the extractor (similar process to when I do custodial work at a college).

[@WeLikeGoPro]

What’s the difference between blue or red? Are they the same

[@KiloRomeoOscar]

Funny how things work out, I was literally just looking to buy one of these and asif by magic Jon uploads and saves me 30 quid. Legend!

[@AntEloftheHouseofEl]

Good video Jon, thanks for that. I do think it's worth throwing in a caveat or two to it though. Or at least my own personal ones: 1. Unless you're actually detailing regularly, this might be a slightly more luxury purchase. If your home has a large amount of carpeted space, you probably would be better off buying a full sized machine. I have a Bissell Pro Heat pet pro machine, which is an upright vacuum cleaner style machine and it came with a long hose and car-specific tools. It works fantastically for the car aswell as the house in general. Just have to be slightly careful not to pull the machine too far and send it banging into your paint. 2. If you have a detailing product you use and trust for upholstery cleaning, you CANNOT run it through these machines or you instantly invalidate the warranty. I tend to use Surfex HD for decently soiled interiors, so of course that goes in a pump sprayer.

[@no_lft_shft]

Very nice points. I bought an upright one I haven't had the chance to use it yet but our home does have a decent amount of carpet. I may buy one of these to keep in the garage and use the upright for the house.

[@AntEloftheHouseofEl]

Forgot to mention, the hose on mine is bloody massive! I can leave the machine in the hallway and the hose easily reaches to the top of my stairs. It must be 2.5 to 3 metres long I'm sure.

[@elroyvanderkruk6318]

Looks just like mine but the brand is bissell spot clean. Mine got a longer hose and it heats up the water.

[@djmandrick]

For anyone else wondering, I also bought one and althought its expensive, its brilliant. No regrets and used it far more than I thought I would.

[@Simb-l]

Bessel sell a cleaner that has scotch guard added in and it works really nice. Protection lasts about 6-8 months.

[@SerenaBluee]

I am also a Vax 6131T user (the big orange one) and it's brilliant but changing from dry vac with a bag to wet vac is a bit of a faff. I'd rather have this and a separate smaller dry vacuum, which I might end up doing, to save changing between the two.

[@olliespurway4146]

Perfect bit of kit imo did my whole zafira and didn't struggle once

[@BioSniper]

I've got the bissell pet spot cleaner for exactly the same purpose. The amount of grime it lifted out of my 150,000 mile seats was unreal and the car smelt brand new! THE thing that I dislike about these smaller machines is the hoses are just a shade too short (1.5m isn't enough at all), another 50cm or more on them and it'd be great / perfect. Even if they could make a hose extension kit that'd be helpful!

[@joeschmoe6908]

Unfortunately hose length affects suction, it's a compromise. These small machines already have less suction than a shopvac.

[@ajpepe72]

I went with the Bissel spot clean pro, slightly larger tanks and can take water upto 60 degrees.

[@lukerobinson7413]

Use valet pro carpet cleaner it's great in a machine and I've tried all sorts of brands but that one is best

[@pigeonpoo1823]

Do you use it at the 1:80 ratio in the Vax spotwash? Just got one today and have a loads of VP carpet cleaner that I was contemplating using. Cheers in advance

[@COPD_REHAB_GUY]

I picked up a bargain, it was brand new and unwanted I paid £80 for a £300+ machine (or so I thought) it was a brand new vax big carpet shampooer with a hose for doing stairs and small areas, however I made the fatal mistake of lending it to someone it got damaged, vax sales direct offer extended warranties, but from third parties you need to check. Mine got damaged, I was more than happy to pay for a repair or at least check the viability of getting it repaired. But despite the plethora of vacuum cleaner repair places, nobody repairs shampooers. Without the extended warranty Vax offer no repair for damage caused. So you have to weigh up the pros and cons of having a machine that is made of brittle plastic that could be easily damaged and of no further use.

[@COPD_REHAB_GUY]

Just got a Bissell pet pro, the build quality is far superior to the Vax, comes with a standard 3 year warranty, there is absolutely no way that there back up support and customer service can be anywhere near as bad as VAX. So my unbiased opinion 😀 is that VAX appears good at new and whilst working, back up depends on where and who you buy it from. APPARENTLY, theY subscribe to the EEEE regulation that gives the manufacturer a set time to keep replacement parts, apart from the likes of us guys who will use it more than us, it is for normal domestic use so a defect may manifest itself whilst the machine is relatively unused but quite old.

Looks great, I'm still thinking about the Bissel though. I'll Google the specs on both including the longer hose (not a pun) and think about ways and situations in which would cause me to get frustrated or areas where it could be compromised.
