there was no single machine that could handle all vacuuming, deep cleaning, and wet/dry debris and stain removal tasks for all types of floors and carpets. However, technology is continually evolving, and new products may have been developed since then.
Vacuum cleaners are generally designed to handle dry debris like dust, dirt, and small particles from various floor types, including carpets. Some vacuum cleaners might have limited wet cleaning capabilities for light spills, but they are not suitable for deep cleaning or removing tough stains.
On the other hand, deep cleaning and stain removal often require specialized equipment such as carpet cleaners or steam cleaners. These machines use hot water and cleaning solutions to deep clean carpets and tackle tougher stains.
While there are some hybrid machines that combine vacuuming and wet cleaning functions, they may not be effective for all floor types and might have limitations in dealing with very stubborn stains or heavily soiled carpets.
For comprehensive cleaning of all floor and carpet types, it's still common to use a combination of different machines specialized for their respective tasks. Always check the specifications and features of any new cleaning equipment on the market to see if there have been advancements in this area.
