No Vac Carpet Sanitiser and Deodoriser

Horribly overpowering fragrance even though i wore a mask and goggles just out of precaution I ended up violently ill with a migraine after using this product. All I wanted was to freshen my home a bit. It's over 24hrs since I used it and the fragrance is still too strong. Show details

Leaves white marks and does not clean – Leaves white marks and does not clean the carpets. The powder seams to stick to the carpet and make it very stick and uncomfortable.

Save yourself $3000 and dont buy it – I have purchased and used No Vac 549ml Professional Fresh Pet Plus Carpet Cleaner to treat a small area along the edge of my carpet where my pet had a few accidents. I immediately found the smell to be very overwhelming, but had hoped that it would fade within a few days. I have since moved out of the apartment and am trying to sell it. I have… Read more

had a professional carpet cleaner come and attend a specialized pet urine carpet cleaning which has done a wonderful job of cleaning my carpet and removing pet smells, however the stench of this product literally 2 months later is still so overwhelming that it is embarrassing. People who come to my open homes comment on the awful smell and one potential buyer even stated that it was so bad it put them off buying the apartment. I leave the doors open between open houses and it still doesnt fix the problem. I have just searched online for solutions as it is affecting the sale of my property, only to find that several other people had to replace their carpet to get rid of the smell. I am so disappointed and very stressed at the prospect of having to pay $3000 to have my carpet replaced because of this awful product. I did do a patch test and there is no visible damage to the carpet but I could not possibly have predicted that the strong chemical smell would last for months and months. It has literally been 2 months since I used the product and even with the doors left open all the time the smell of this makes me feel sick every time I walk into my apartment. No one will buy it until I rip up the entire lounge room and replace it, money which I should have been spending on my new house.

Absolutely amazing product!!! – I've been reading a lot of bad reviews about the product here and was not sure if I can use this product as carpet in one of the room stinks badly and nothing help to get rid of the horrible smell. My neighbor recommend this spray to me, as she's herself and all her friends use it constantly in there premises. I decided to give it a try. I'm… Read more

glad I did. Horrible smell from the carpet gone in one day!!! It's like a miracle! I've done vacuuming first, then put gloves (!) and face mask (!) and plastic glasses (!) as it makes sense to do so when you use chemicals (!), then I sprayed on the carpet everywhere in the room. Yes, it did spray uneven, and I brushed it into the carpet very fast and easy. Yes, smell very strong, but what else would you expect? It has to be strong. I shut the door immediately, and left the room till morning as the window was already open. In the evening it was still some smell from the chemicals, as I can smell it from under the door ( actually I put some towels underneath the door to cover the hole ), but next morning all smells were gone!!! I repeat all process again and in couple of days previous horrible smell from the carpet was gone!!! I'm very happy as I've already tried with different powder from other brands and it didn't work. I will repeat with no vac spray again in a couple of weeks and I would strongly recommend this product to my friends and neighbors. Also it's really cheap ($4,90) from both Woolworth and Coles and it's really work!

Not bad for what it does – I have a small area of carpeted flooring but don't have a steam cleaner, and I always feel uneasy about not being able to completely clean out and sanitise carpets the way you can clean hard flooring till they sparkle. So i got a can of no-vac garden breeze. I don't have a problem with carpet odour so I can't comment on it's deodorising power.… Read more

Regarding sanitisation, I'll assume that it is working to some extent, seeing that I haven't gotten any colds or flus through winter. :)

Warning: Yes the smell can be really strong so make sure you open the windows and turn on the fan to keep the place ventilated after applying the product. If you sit in the room immediately after you could be choking in the fumes! (true story) but it does go away after a few minutes. I personally don't find the smell offensive, just artificial floral-ish.

Also, to spray the product evenly, you have to press the nozzle down hard all the way to get a nice even layer. If you just press it lightly/halfway, or you will get chunks of white foam. Not good. It seems to run out really quickly too and therefore can be expensive if you are using it frequently on a large area. Convenient and easy to use Strong fumes, expensive

A god send – I have used expensive pet enzyme cleaners and nothing compares to no vac carpet foam. I have a new puppy that’s had a few accidents and this stuff completely has cleaned up her mess and smells within minutes. Excellent value for money! Show details

cleans my lounge perfect – an amazing product. I used it on my lounge chairs which were pretty grubby and it cleaned them amazingly. I would recommend this product to anyone. It took most of the stains off and made the fabric really soft so I am very happy I purchased the product. The only downfall is that it has run out at Bunnings at the moment Show details

Smells amazing! – Love this product! My carpets are very clean anyway so I’m not trying to mask any musty or foul odours but I still use this once a week after my deep clean simply because it makes my house smell so good, sheer vanilla and orchid is the best. Show details ·  1

No Vac's disgusting smell – I hadn't used this product for well over one year but used it today on bedroom carpet. It was then that I realized why I hadn't used it again, too late. Now I am stuck with that horrible smell wafting through my home. This product should be taken off the shelves. Show details

The fumes from this stuff are toxic – Do not buy No Vac. I would give this product negative stars if i could! The toxic fumes from the pet "deoderizer"spray are overpowering and impossible to get rid of. There is no way this is safe for humans let alone pets! To think that this company is reccomending this product be sprayed on things anmials use is criminal. The irony that this is a… Read more

deoderizer, it purely masks any smells with a powerful perfume that you cannot get rid of! Even if used lightly as i did. The fumes from this stuff sprayed on one chair has made my whole house stink, given me headaches and an irritated throat. Even after leaving the chair outside for 3 days the smell has not disapated. Cleaning, baking soda and vinager have not helped. Even with the chair outside the smell left in my house took two days of ventilating with fans and air purifier to remove. The smell from the chair was far preferable to this!

Not worth it – I sprayed No Vac on my floor rug in the lounge. Within a couple of hours the stench became apparent. It's absolutely vile! I have floorboards and this rug is all I have covering them in the lounge. I'm going to have to throw it out as the odour is revolting. I've used this product in the past with great results, but this is gross. I'll never purchase it again. Show details

It Stinks – Alas, I had not read these reviews before using this product two weeks ago on a 2 square metre section of carpet in my 12 square metre home office. I regretted using it immediately as it truly does stink. Its overpowering odour pervades the whole house and makes it extremely unpleasant to spend any time in the office. Applications of baking soda have done nothing to relieve the stink.

Throat started burning – Carpet and couch smelt musty. I used a far amount of spray on both. An hour later in bed I felt my throat burn and my breath to be narrow and slightly painful. Do not recommend.

no vac carpet foam – I love this product, it dries quickly and smells lovely, i wish i could buy in a larger can, it leaves a lovely smell throughout the house and i love the price, please don't stop making this product love love love it.

Terrible don't buy it waste of money – Terrible it is the worst cleaning product ever. It is a wate of 10 dollar's it only lasts 2 seconds it is that bad i would go for something else Show details

It works! – No vac truly works to eliminate odours. I’ve used it on toilet training accidents, and milk spilled in a hot car and both smells were gone after some light cleaning and one application of no vac. I love it to freshen up my fabric couch and carpets, however I do need to keep the windows open as the initial scent is very strong. After about 30… Read more

minutes it’s nice and subtle and once the scent has faded any bad odour is completely gone. Great product.

The best on the market – I have asthma and have no reaction from this product. I love the smell and its lingering abilities. It sure beats the smells you are trying to eliminate. I have used it for our new dog as well as airing a bedroom after my daughter stayed for several months over lockdown. She was a heavy smoker and now vapes a lot. Only product on the market that… Read more

eliminated the smell of vaping. I also feel that the room is okay for our other friends. Clean and sanitised.

Love it!!!! – I honestly don't know what some people are talking about. I have chronic asthma and the slightest wrong smell sets me off. If you use a small amount in each room you shouldn't have a problem. I recommend.

Terrible!!!! – I wish I could give it 0/5!!!! I bought it hoping to freshen up the smell of our carpet since we have a new pet. OMG!!! The smell is too overwhelming and strong, it gave me headache and nausea. I only applied it to one room but the whole house ended up smelling terrible. Save yourselves the headache!!! DO NOT BUY THIS! Show details

Awful product – I used No Vac months ago on a section of my couch. The perfume smell is still very strong and makes me feel sick when I sit on the couch. I have tried baking soda, water, vinegar. No use. So disappointed. I can't imagine it's safe for pets or humans. Please remove from the market

Please dont' use on your couch ! – I used this product on my couch 6 weeks ago and there is still an overwhelming smell of the product there. I have tried baking soda, vinegar and water to try to clean but no use. The helpline is completely useless .

Was ok for me and I am ultra sensitive – I knew before this how stupid human beings were but after reading these reviews I had to put in my two cents. I'm a person with severe sensitivity to smells, chemicals etc. I have used this product and the smart thing to do is just wear a face mask, open a window (if you're that sensitive), spray the room starting away from the door and spray as… Read more

you're backing out of the room, close the door and leave it sit for a good few hours. I don't know what people are talking about with the lingering, harsh perfume smell. It's either that or just deal with the bacteria and mould that naturally occurs on carpets.. Far out.. Ignorance is not always bliss is it?

If you want to feel unwell - this product is for you! – Thought it was a coincidence that each time I've used this product I've become extremely unwell and nauseous. A quick google search proves I'm not the only one. The smell will not disappear and If I'm feeling this unwell, whats going to happen to the animals in my house? Product should be removed from the market immediately.  Show details

I use this all the time. It's awesome – I have never had a problem with this product. I have 2 cats and 1 dog that are all inside permanently. I love the fresh smell. No one in my household human or animal has suffered when used it. Show details

Dangerous for those with asthma and allergies – If you suffer from asthma or allergies steer clear of this product. I used the product on a floor rug in my bedroom and haven't been able to use the room since even after removing the rug almost immediately. I've tried deep cleaning the room, running an air purifier and opening windows and doors to air it out, but the smell is still lingering… Read more

and causing breathing problems and headaches. The rug has been cleaned and airing outside for a week, but the scent from the product is still way too strong to use the rug indoors again. I will most likely end up having to replace the rug. Not sure what chemicals are used in this product, but it is definitely a health hazard.

No Vac causes severe health problems – A Dangerous product! I used beside my bed, I wore a mask, I'm asthmatic & now have difficulty breathing & have an irritated throat, nose & headaches. Most concerned for my 2 elderly cats. I am not happy. Will I sleep?? Show details

Excellent deodoriser. Garden Breeze is my favourite – I keep my carpets clean, but always like that fresh clean smell. This product is fantastic. Smell is nice and even my allergic husband has not reactions at all. 5 stars from me. I used it every week. This is a deodoriser, you cannot expect cleaning or masking mould odour if you do not look after your carpets. Show details

Love this product – I just love this product. I've been using the pet no vac, it works amazingly. My dog lives inside and it removes that doggy smell. I have hayfever and it hasn't effected me at all. So happy I found this, others I've used haven't worked. LOVE IT Show details

Just uses perfume to mask smells, gives me a blocked nose – lame product that just uses a strong smell to mask other smells, but to the point where its worse than not using it. Quite irritating on the nose, now I'm all congested. Show details

Perfume smell is worse than musty rug! Unbearable!!! – Perfume smell is worse than musty rug...unbearable. Will need something now to get rid of this stink! Obviously your dog / Cat / musty smell doesn’t disappear, it’s just masked by the stench of the product. Show details

The perfumes so strong my throat is hurting and I can't be in same room – I followed instructions covered my face as I have asthma and allergies and COPD but wanted to get dog odour out of carpet so gave it a go man the stench has been burning my nose and causing throat irritation its not safe around any one with breathing conditions and especially not children and animals it would asphyxiate them I would not recommend this product to anyone Show details

Worked for me – Purchased this item with low expectations but was pleasantly surprised. Got rid of a vile smell in an area of the carpet my cat had been. It worked well and left a nice smelling room. Did not damage carpet in any way. Show details

Not safe – I really wish I’d read these reviews before using. I sprayed the rug in my living room and there was such a strong smell. I waited for it to dry and then vacuumed the rug several times. It still smelt very strong so I moved it outside to air and ended up leaving it out there for 2 weeks. Today I moved it back inside and my 1 year old daughter came… Read more

up in a red angry rash almost immediately. I felt nauseous and had a sore throat. What a nasty product, I honestly don’t understand how this can be sold.
