Customer Review: Not happy pet owner
I wish I had checked reviews on this before I bought. I have used it a few times, it does not do a very good job. I find I still need to haul the big carpet cleaner to get the spots cleaned up. I have cats and a dog that hates thunderstorms, so the messes occur regularly enough (hair balls, vomit, etc.) and it just doesn't clean them up very well.
Customer Review: It Really Works!
Since I bought this spot cleaner three years ago, it has been an indispensable tool in lifting tough stains out of my carpet. If you own Berber, you know that stains take to it like a magnet to a fridge and are really hard to pry off using traditional cleaners that come in a bottle or can. The Spot Scrubber makes short order of these stains. I've used it on everything from greasy shoe stains to spilled coffee, and each time the stains come out completely with little to no effort. A few tricks I've learned to get the most value from this machine may help you. * Saturate the stain with the liquid cleaning solution and wait a full 5 minutes for the cleaner to activate. This is an important step, since it is the liquid cleaner that ultimately works at removing the stain. * Next, use the revolving brush on the Spot Scrubber with steady even pressure, back and forth from right to left and up to down. This makes sure that the cleaner is thoroughly worked into the carpet fibers and attacks the stain. * Next, use the vacuum setting on the Spot Scrubber to thoroughly remove the cleaner, moisture and any stain residue. * I like to use an additional spray bottle with plain water after vacuuming the spot as a rinse aid to remove any residual cleaner. After spraying the water onto the spot a few times, I again vacuum the moisture away. Following these steps, I have had superb results with the Dirt Devil Spot Scrubber. A note about the critical reviews here: Without a doubt, this machine has its flaws. One, it's very important to make sure that the dirty water tank is emptied early and often. This will prevent liquid from spraying out of the machine's exhaust vents, as there are no built-in water-proof valves that keep the water locked into the tank. And, two, the machine is indeed very loud. But for small jobs, I believe these faults can be overlooked because it delivers solid results.


As much as we all would like for our ceiling fans to never wear out, we all know that is not reality. Ceiling fans do and will wear out eventually. And while it would be nice to just replace the entire fan, it is often more cost effective to replace the broke part.

The first step in replacing a part is to contact the manufacturer. If the fan is still under warranty, you may be able to have the fan fixed, usually free of charge. Generally, most parts are brand specific, so it is wise to get them through the manufacturer. Since generic parts will not work for these, you can generally order the parts straight from the manufacturers customer service department.

Ceiling fans consist of many different parts. The general parts are switches, motors, p.c. boards, ceiling fan remote controls, flywheels, capacitors, just to name a few. Some even have fitters that you can mount lights from. Although each unit is different, most have the same basic parts.

Probably one the easiest parts of the fan to replace are the blades. Since most retailers sell blades separately, replacement sets are easy to purchase. With age, capacitors are very likely to wear out. When replacing capacitors, make sure to replace with the same rated model you have. Sometimes, your fan simply needs a bolt or screw. These can generally be found at hardware stores. However, some ceiling fan retailers sell packets of common screws and other fasteners.

Unfortunately, there are some parts that can not be replaced. One specifically is the motor. However, it is rare that the problem is the motor itself, but rather a part related directly to the motor, such as the capacitor or the bearings.

So when you are replacing ceiling fan parts, try and keep a few things in mind. First, be sure to check with the manufacturer of your specific fan, to see if the fan is still under warranty. If however, the fan is no longer under warranty, there are parts available, at reasonable rates. You can shop your local Home Center and even the internet. Just be sure to find out whether your fan will accept generic parts or if they need brand specific parts. Always be sure to shop around, to make sure you are getting the best deal.

As with all other electrical appliances you should be careful when you install new parts, and if you are not sure that you know what you are doing contact a professional to do the work for you. There is also a chance that the part will be too expensive and that the installation may take time, or even has to be sent back to the factory, in these kind of cases you would do good to consider purchasing a new ceiling fan.

Ceiling fans are a great tool to cool your home and circulate the air around, many of the modern models have light fixtures in them and many other features, learn about Ceiling Fans and Ceiling Fans Parts installation tips and advice at http://ceilingfan.zupatips.com
