Review: Fantastic machine and easy to clean - This is an upgrade from our previous VAX carpet cleaner which we have had for years and used a lot but it finally blew up. The annoying thing we have with the old one was it was so difficult to clean when you have pets and get hair up inside it You would have to unscrew it and take it all apart. I am so thrilled to discover that this one all comes apart without undoing screws and I can clean every single part of it easily. Now I'm annoyed I didn't upgrade to this one sooner but it's fantastic it's not heavy to push the cord is nice and long so you get plenty of length it's so easy to use and has left the carpet reasonably dry and you can also go over it again by pressing the dry button I have to say I'm extremely impressed Review: A worthwhile investment - An absolutely fabulous cleaner, even better than our old Vax which we finally retired. Cleans better, dries better. Cannot believe the improvement in the colour of our carpets, even though we vacuum every day and don't allow shoes in the house 100% recommended. ## Features - Causes serious eye irritation. - Use biocides safely.

The Vax Platinum SmartWash Pet-Design Carpet Cleaner has completely exceeded my expectations. As a pet owner, keeping carpets looking fresh can feel impossible—but this machine makes it effortless. The automatic washing and drying system is incredibly convenient; all I have to do is push forward to wash and pull back to dry. It takes the guesswork out of carpet cleaning. The suction power is impressive, and it lifted deep-set dirt and stains I thought were permanent. The included pet tool is fantastic for stairs, upholstery, and those stubborn little messes pets tend to leave behind. I also love that the machine dispenses the right amount of solution automatically—no mixing, no mess. After one full clean, my carpets looked visibly brighter, smelled fresh, and dried surprisingly quickly. The build quality feels solid, and despite being powerful, the machine is easy to move around and store. If you have pets—or just want professional-level results at home—the Vax Platinum SmartWash Pet-Design is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended! ## Frequently Bought Together - Vax Smartwash Pet-Design Carpet Cleaner | Kills 99% of Bacteria | Pre-treatment Wand – CDCW-SWXP, Grey, White and Teal - Vax Platinum Antibacterial 4L Carpet Cleaner Solution, Stain Remover Shampoo, Citrus & Blossom Scent, Removes 99.99% of bacteria, Neutralises Pet Odours, 1-9-142405, Blue - Vax Pet, Stain & Odour Remover 1L Pre Treatment Carpet Cleaner Solution, Upholstery Stain Shampoo, Fragrance Free, Formulated for Stubborn Stains and Smellier Messes, 1-9-142879, White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/497816920-vax-platinum-smartwash-pet-design-upright-carpet-cleaner-machine-cdcw](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/497816920-vax-platinum-smartwash-pet-design-upright-carpet-cleaner-machine-cdcw) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-18*
