A spot cleaner is a small, portable cleaning device designed to remove stains and dirt from carpets, upholstery, and other fabrics. It typically uses a combination of water, cleaning solution, and suction to lift away spills and messes. Spot cleaners are especially useful for tackling specific areas rather than cleaning an entire surface. These devices are often lightweight and easy to maneuver, making them ideal for quick clean-ups in homes, cars, or offices. Many spot cleaners come with specialized attachments for different surfaces, enhancing their effectiveness in treating various types of stains, such as those from food, pets, or drinks.
