The Joseph Joseph CleanTech 2-in-1 Carpet Cleaning Tool is a dual-sided carpet cleaning tool designed to lift hair and debris that vacuum cleaners leave behind in carpet pile. One side carries triple-action rubber blades suited to rugs and longer pile carpets, where the blades agitate and gather embedded hair into removable clumps. The opposite side has a sturdy brass comb intended for short pile carpets, where it works through the pile to dislodge debris more directly. A non-slip handle makes it comfortable to use with the effort required for carpet cleaning, and the tool is compatible with the Joseph Joseph CleanTech telescopic extension pole for larger floor areas. The brass comb should always be tested on a small hidden area before use on any new carpet, as the rubber blades are the safer default for unknown or delicate pile.
FEATURES
Triple-Action Rubber Blades: The rubber blade side agitates and gathers embedded hair from rugs and longer pile carpets, collecting it into clumps that can be lifted away cleanly.
Brass Comb for Short Pile Carpets: The sturdy brass comb on the reverse side works through short pile carpet to dislodge hair and debris that the rubber blades are less suited to on tighter weaves.
Reaches Areas Vacuum Cleaners Miss: The physical scraping action of rubber blades and a brass comb addresses embedded hair in carpet pile that suction alone often fails to remove.
Non-Slip Handle: The handle is designed with a non-slip grip for comfortable, secure use during the physical effort involved in carpet cleaning.
Compatible with CleanTech Extension Pole: The tool fits the Joseph Joseph CleanTech telescopic extension pole, allowing it to be used standing up across larger rugs and floor areas without kneeling.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Cleaning the tool: Wipe the tool clean with a damp cloth after use. Allow it to dry fully before storing.
Using the brass comb: Before using the brass comb on any carpet, always test it first on a small, inconspicuous area. If excessive fibres are removed during the test, use only the rubber blades on that surface and avoid the brass comb entirely.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Question: Is the brass comb safe to use on all carpets?
Answer: Not without testing first. Joseph Joseph recommends always trying the brass comb on a small, inconspicuous area of any carpet before cleaning a visible section. If the test pulls out an excessive number of fibres, you should use only the rubber blades on that surface and avoid the brass comb entirely. The rubber blades are the safer default for any carpet where you are unsure, and the comb is best reserved for tougher short pile where you have confirmed it causes no damage.
Question: How does this tool work with the CleanTech extension pole?
Answer: The 2-in-1 Carpet Cleaning Tool is designed to attach to the Joseph Joseph CleanTech telescopic extension pole, which extends from 61cm to 86cm. This allows you to use the tool standing up across larger rugs or carpeted areas without needing to kneel or bend down. The extension pole is sold separately and is also included in the full CleanTech Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Set.
Question: Should I buy this on its own or as part of the full CleanTech Carpet and Upholstery Set?
Answer: If carpet and rug cleaning is your primary need, this standalone tool covers that task directly. The full CleanTech Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Set adds the 3-in-1 Pet Hair Upholstery Tool for sofas, car seats and crevices, plus the telescopic extension pole, making it the more complete option if you need to clean both carpets and upholstered surfaces. If you already own the extension pole or the pet hair tool separately, buying this tool on its own may make more sense.
Question: What types of carpet or rug is this tool not suitable for?
Answer: The rubber blades work well on most rug and carpet types, but the brass comb should not be used on delicate, loosely woven, or very deep pile carpets without testing first, as it can pull fibres from surfaces that are not robust enough to handle it. Shag rugs or any carpet where the pile is very long and loosely anchored are worth treating with caution. When in doubt, test the comb on a hidden area and stick to the rubber blade side if there is any sign of damage.
