    The alternative to a real extractor is the Bissell Little Green Machine

    No.

    Hot water extraction is the best method for flushing soil and stains from carpet and upholstery.

    Steam. Works faster than extraction and dries much faster.

    Yup same here, except I use a combo of Meg's APC and/or Super degreaser and a lot of older MFs to pull dirt out/dry. Extractors are awesome, but I love how much quicker the steam dries.
