Need to revive a sofa, remove stains from a rug, or clean your car seats in Paris?
Vacuuming isn't enough. To eliminate stains, dust mites, and embedded odors, you need a carpet cleaner (or carpet shampooer). It injects soapy water deep into the fiber and instantly sucks it back up with the dirt. Result: vibrant colors and perfect hygiene.
With Poppins, clean like a pro. Our app aggregates all available stock in Paris: Kärcher machines from neighbors, Bissell spot cleaners from dry cleaners, and pro machines. The result? You find a high-performance machine right downstairs, without crossing the Périphérique.

Is it worth buying a carpet cleaner?
The math is simple. A carpet cleaner clutters up Parisian closets for nothing. It would take 13 years (at one use per year) to break even.
Which detergent for my carpet cleaner?
Efficiency depends on chemistry. Never use dish soap (too much foam!).
- Detergent Tablet (Kärcher RM 760): The pro reference. 1 tablet per tank (4L). Ideal for 1 sofa or 10m² of carpet.
- Special Extraction Liquid: Often provided by the owner. Check the dosage.
- Action: Descales, revives colors, eliminates odors, and sanitizes (anti-mite).
Quick Guide: Cleaning Fabric Sofa vs Rug
- Sofa / Car Seat: Use the small nozzle (upholstery tool). Vacuum dry first. Spray, let sit 5 min, then suck up the dirty water. Drying time: 4h to 12h.
- Rug / Carpet: Use the large nozzle with the handle. Work in regular strips. Ventilate the room well to speed up drying.
