I don't know why this stuff doesn't have a clear monopoly on the carpet cleaning market. I grew up with the white fizzy stuff, and my wife and I have had some stains (from detergent, of all things) that we could NOT get out for the life of us. We were at Target looking at cleaning solutions discussing which one to buy when the lady next to us recommended Folex. We got it hoping for it to work a little better. I tried it when we got home and was honestly amazed as the stains disappeared before my eyes. I figured it had to have some terrible chemical in it, but all the ingredients were natural and the product is safer than the other carpet cleaners. Seriously, get this stuff, you won;t ever get anything else.

So I am super accident prone and have been addicted to Folex since it was recommended to me. This will get any stain out, at worst it will need a second dose.
Huge blood stain from a lacerated ear, half a bottle of red wine I spilled and forgot about for a week, various stains from a mentally retarded cat who utilizes every spewable bodily function to jeopardize my security deposit, my gross ex's many chewing tobacco spills, an entire bottle of black India ink, all the various alcoholic offerings my stupid drunk friends tend to leave for me in the night. All vanished completely. It even gets out really old stains that are years old.
Not only does this stuff rock, it's very non-toxic--and cheap too! And pink. Doesn't irritate the skin, doesn't smell at all, and if you get it in your eyes simply flush it out with water. Stains won't reappear afterward like with many products. It works on upholstery, clothing (thank god), and even wood and counters. It's great in carpet cleaning machines. It's biodegradable. It probably cures cancer.
When using it, you don't want to scrub it in roughly as that can damage the carpet or work the stain further into the material. Just gently massage with your fingers, and blot it up with a rag. Also it may not work on everything... if the offending stain dyes or bleaches a susceptible material, Folex won't work its magic as well so try and clean up stains while they are fresh.
I keep a spare gallon of this liquid miracle in my house at all times. I wish I could give it 20 stars--finally a product that actually works the way it's supposed to, is affordable and safe to use, and doesn't annoy me with a bunch of stupid advertisements.

This product blows me away. Why it is so cheap, and so unknown, I just can't fathom. We moved a house with carpeted bedrooms 3 years ago, with a toddler, a dog and a puppy. Some stains accumulated that I just figured were here to stay. Then one day at Lowes about 6 months ago I threw this in the cart, almost as an after thought. A few days later I remembered about the purchase and tried it on an old milk stain. Gone. Tried an old dirt spot. Gone. Walked around the entire place looking for spots like a kid in a candy store. There was not one spot that this cleaner didn't eliminate effortlessly on my end.
I have relaxed on the stain phobia since I know my Folex is here for me! (Some twisted side of me almost look forward to more stains) Well, 4 nights ago my now 5 year old woke us up from a nose bleed, had walked from her to our bedroom dripping blood. I only got to the stains tonight (yeah life has been that busy) - gone, seriously, before my eyes.
I will never, ever, ever go without a bottle of that stuff in my house.

I have two chihuahua dogs which I got as un-house trained puppies. I live in a rented apartment. After about 2 years in this apartment with one dog still un-trained I figured I would have to pay an unreal amount of money to replace all the carpet in the home. I had tried all the major and obscure brands of cleaner "guarenteed" to take out stains. I even started buying products from infomercials. I was walking through Home Depot and stumbled on this product. It was the only one in the cleaning section I hadn't tried so far. Since it was so inexpensive I decided to give it a try. I didn't expect much but much to my surprise it got out stains my steamcleaner and all those other products could not. I am AMAZED with this product. REALLY! It is the best. I highly recommend it. I only wish I had discovered it 2 years ago before I spent a small fortune on everything else!

I discovered Folex entirely by accident at my local Kroger when housebreaking my puppy. It was a lifesaver! It took out almost every stain we could throw at it. It's a miracle-worker on pet stains, and we've used it on food stains, clothing, etc. as well. I would definitely recommend this product for pet owners.

This is the hands down, all time, best carpet cleaner; no questions asked. I regularly clean my carpets with my Hoover Steam Vac and Bissell Little Green Clean Machine. I have used all types of Hoover, Bissell, and Oxy Clean detergents. Folex works so well with these machines. For spot clean up, blotting on any type of stain always has great results. The one thing I notice about Folex that is different from other cleaners is that after you use it, there is no residue that attracts new dirt. GET IT~!

Best results, yet not perfect.
This is best performing carpet cleaner I have used. After multiple applications, coffee stains on a light gray carpet were not completely removed but were greatly reduced. Read more

Works well in cars, but!!
Does n excellent job in my car, but when i bring it into the house, its a differnt story. I'm guessing its because most stains in cars are dirt which this product gets up easily!
