When I was a kid, we used to have an Aqua Vac (remember those?). It was brilliant, it picked up a hell of a lot.
Actually, IIRC, the last wet/dry cleaner I used was actually a vax and it did a good job of cleaning the carpets.
However, the best thing I have found for cleaning carpets (or pretty much any houshold item) is a Polti (
