You let it sit for a few minutes and then you suck out the water/soap/dirt and it stores it in a separate tank. The water you pull off will be dirty and you can see how much it gets out. I use it 2 or 3 times a year on my cars and the carpets look good. It is also handy if you have kids or a pet that drops stuff on the carpet. Also good if you are a drunk and have an accident with red wine...

+1. I have the Auto version of the carpet cleaning machine and it has a heater- heated water works even better.
However, a product that I can't say enough about is Folex- you can get a big bottle of it at Home Depot for like 7 bucks and it truly is a game changing product. It gets stains out of carpet very easily...it's worked wonders for me on lighter color interiors. You can mix it in the carpet cleaning machine too if you want.
