Bissell 1425A Little Green ProHeat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you've read the majority of the reviews for this product you'll notice there is a consistent problem with the sprayer clogging and no longer working. Here's how to fix it. We originally bought the machine a year and a half ago and it quit spraying after only 2 uses. Bissell replaces it under warranty but the bad thing is that your "new" Little Green is only warranteed for the the rest of the time left on the original one you bought. Of course our replacement quit spraying as well until today when my husband figured out how to fix it. Get some liquid CLR Calcium Lime Rust Remover or Lime-Away product and pour straight into the clean water solution tank. Fill only to about 3/4 of an inch of the CLR in the tank, then turn on the Little Green and push the sprayer button. It will immediately begin spraying again. Let it sit for about 10 minutes, then run the rest of the CLR through. Then run through a tank or two of clean water. The problem is the phosphates in your water that clog the sprayer line. This should get rid of the clogs. I would also follow the advice of running through some clean water before storing your Little Green. Other than the sprayer problem the Little Green is very effective at carpet stains and cleaning.

Bissell SpotBot ProHeat Hands-Free Compact Deep Cleaner, 12U9A Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We have two dogs and two boys. Our youngest dog is a 1 year old beagle, who has been very difficult to potty train! Needless to say, a carpet cleaner is a must-have for us. It is used many times during the week. Prior to the SpotBot, we used way to many paper towels for cleaning up messes that we didn't have time to clean with the large machine.
The fact that we already have a full-size carpet cleaner, that works well, is why we did not buy one of these sooner. I am betting that many others are in the same situation, or are debating between this or a full size cleaner, so this is where I will begin:
First, I will focus on the downfalls of using our full-size carpet cleaner for a small spot/stain-
1) Its size! With as much as we use it, it is not ideal to lug it up and down the stairs of our two floor house. This is especially the case when spots need cleaned both upstairs and downstairs at the same time.
2) The hose on the Hoover model we have is a royal pain. It takes several steps to switch the machine over to use the hand tool. It is a pain to clean. We avoid having to use it because of this. That means we usually end up scrubbing chairs and the stairs by hand, as it is less of a hassle. (If you go for a full-size model, consider looking for one where you do not need the extra steps to switch between the floor and hose modes!)
3) The dirty water holder is large. We usually use the bathtub to clean it. Going through all this trouble for a little stain sucks, especially when you have to do it as often as we do.
4) You should vacuum before using a carpet cleaner. This usually is not a problem for dry stains. However, you cannot vacuum over a wet pet accident! With the full-size cleaner, it is very difficult to just clean one area. We usually end up cleaning a 2'x3' area that surrounds the stain...an un-vacuumed 2'x3' area. This results in dog hair in parts of the carpet cleaner where it does not belong. Again, it is a pain to clean.
5) We cannot leave this machine sitting on a carpeted area. The left-over water from the brushes and such leave a wet spot. We usually move the machine to a hard floor before we even turn it off.
Now, onto the SpotBot-
1) The size is great. It is SOOO much easier to carry around the house and up and down the stairs.
2) It is very easy to switch from the automatic mode to the manual mode (where you use the hose.) Because of this, I do not hesitate to use it for quick clean-ups on the stairs, on our dining room chairs, or in the car. The hand tool is a cinch to clean when you are through, partly because it is not as long as the full-size models.
3) The dirty water bin is easily dumped and cleaned in the sink. It can be carried with one hand.
4) It is not always ideal to vacuum before cleaning. It is easy to clean just the stained area without involving the area around it.
5) We leave the SpotBot out of the way in our dining room for quick access. We have had no problems with it leaking.Now that I have explained why this has been so much easier than our full-sized cleaner, here are some more observations of the SpotBot:
1. There are 3 models of the SpotBot. From what I can tell, they are all almost identical except the Pet model comes with pet cleaning solution and the ProHeat has a water heater. The original does not have Microban protection, whereas the Pet and ProHeat do. (Hint: Compare specs and the pictures of the lady using the machine on Bissell's website.)
--If you plan on getting fresh hot water every time you use the machine, I would pass on the ProHeat model. Consider if you want the Microban protection to decide between the green and pet models.
--If you have a pet, you can get the green model and buy your own pet solution. However, the green one does not have the Microban protection, so it may be worth getting the Pet model.
--If you plan on having the machine ready all the time, get the ProHeat (red) model. The water heater function will heat the water/cleaning solution that has been sitting in the tank since your last use. I have been happy with the heat function. It may not heat it to scorching hot, but warm water still is better than cold.
2. As others have noted, the automatic function does not do the best job at sucking up all the water. It is not much trouble to use the hose to suck up the remaining water. The only downside of this is the need to rinse out the hand attachment after you are through. Even that isn't a big deal and it only takes a second.
3. There are two cycles, plus the manual option. The surface stain cycle runs about 3 minutes, the set-in stain cycle runs about 6 minutes. The machine really does most of the work for you! It was not a primary reason for our purchase, but WOW...this machine has really saved us a ton of work!!! Because this machine is so simple and quick to use, every single pet stain has been properly cleaned. No paper towels have been wasted.
4. A full solution tank lasts about two of the longer 6 minute cycles. It lasts for about 4 of the shorter cycles.
5. The automatic function does an EXCELLENT job. It has gotten out ever spill and every old stain we have used it on. The hand tool does a decent job, though not as good of a job as the automatic function. This may be because I do not scrub one spot for 6 minutes. In fact, I don't think I ever went over the same spot with our full-sized machine for 6 minutes...LOL!
6. If your carpets have not been cleaned in a while, this machine may clean so well that you will have a ring of clean carpet. I noticed a slight ring when I used the SpotBot on a stain in a high-traffic area. For us, this is not a huge issue because we have our carpets professionally cleaned ever 6-12 months and use our full-sized machine in between.
7. This unit is only intended for cleaning small areas. The circle is 8" in diameter, and the area it cleans is approximately 6-7". A full-sized carpet cleaner will be your best bet for cleaning large areas. This machine is better than the full-sized unit for cleaning up individual stains.
8. We only use MAYBE half the recommended cleaner. The stains still come out! I recommend experimenting with this so that you are not using more cleaner than you actually need to.
Since we usually have this ready at all times, when an accident does happen it couldn't be easier! We just grab the machine, plug it in, set it on the stain, and push a button. We carry on with whatever we were doing until the cycle ends. Then, we attach the hand tool to the hose, suck up the excess water, dump and rinse the storage tank, and we are ready for next time!
I think I covered the questions I had before our purchase! I highly recommend this machine!

Remove stubborn spots and stains throughout the home quickly and easily with this compact deep cleaner. The machine provides unique spiral brushing, two separate tanks--a solution tank for clean soapy water and a collection tank for used dirty water, and a user-friendly push-button control panel with status-indicator lights for easy operation. Choose from two automatic SmartSystem cleaning cycles: Surface Stain, which runs for about three minutes, for new stains on the surface of carpeting or Set-In Stain, which runs for about six minutes, for difficult stains that have had time to set in and penetrate carpet fibers. Simply place the cleaner over the designated area, make a selection to start the cycle, and walk away for powerful hands-free cleaning. The machine will begin spraying, brushing, and suctioning up the spot or stain, and it will beep when finished. Push the Pause/Resume button to check the status of the cleaning cycle (press once to pause and again to resume), or press the Stop button to stop the automatic cleaning cycle all together. The cleaner also offers a Manual/Hose option for removing spots and stains manually from upholstery, car interiors, stairs, and other surfaces. Furthermore, it comes with a built-in heater, which heats hot tap water up to 25 degrees hotter for maximum results--or can be turned off for a no-heat option when cleaning delicate wool or oriental rugs. Other highlights include a 3 amp motor, a 32-ounce tank capacity, a flexible hose, a 16-foot power cord, convenient cord storage, and microban antimicrobial product protection, which fights the growth of odor-causing bacteria, mold, and mildew in the cleaner. An on-board 3-inch tough-stain tool comes included, as well as an 8-ounce bottle of Little Green Formula and a 16-ounce bottle of OxyGen 2 Formula. The deep cleaner measures 9-1/2 by 20 by 14 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Bissell 14005 Little Green Compact Carpet Cleaner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bissell 14005 Little Green verses Hoover F5411 Steamvac Jr.
I've used both of these mini shampooers and was not entirely satisfied with either, but I preferred the Bissell's Little Green over Hoover's Steamvac Jr. and here's why:
I first had the Little Green for about five years. It was a great little vac with only minor problems. The fill and empty containers are removable from the unit for convenient filling and emptying. There is a cord winder built onto the unit, the hose wraps conveniently around the unit and locks into place, and the shape and size are convenient for most applications including stairs and storage.
The problems I had with the Little Green:
- It would occasionally leak a bit. The water seemed to be coming from where the hose connects to the base. It was a small drip leak that was easily solved by emptying the clean water tank after each use. We used ours so frequently that I sometimes left clean water in the tank during storage to avoid wasting cleaning solution.
- My biggest problem with the Little Green was the inability to completely clean the dirty water tank. I had four cats when I first bought the Little Green and eventually had four kids. The Little Green made it through a number of illnesses with us above and beyond pet accidents. The dirty water tank became filthy and unsanitary and was not designed to be dismantled for thorough cleaning. Eventually, the smell became too great and I had to dispose of the tank. I decided it was time to try a new spot shampooer - one that had a cleanable tank.
That's when I decided to try the Hoover Steamvac Jr. Both the Little Green and the Hoover spray and suck reasonably well for a small machine. As far as actual cleaning quality, the two are comparable. However, I found the Hoover to be bulky and a pain and its only redeeming quality, in my opinion, was that I am able to thoroughly clean the dirty water tank.
The problems I had with the Hoover F5411 Steamvac Jr.:
- The tanks are the base of the unit and are not removable. In order to fill the clean water tank, you have to either maneuver the entire unit under the faucet and aim at a one inch hole in the portion of the unit that houses the motor, or you have to dismantle the machine and still maneuver the largest part of it under your faucet or use a bucket.
- The tanks are a single bucket-style unit separated by a divider. They are not individual parts. When you dump the dirty water, if you have the unit fully assembled, the clean water will slosh around. If you dismantle the machine to empty it, you will also be emptying the clean water tank.
- The top portion that houses the motor also has a filter that sits down in the dirty water tank, so if you dismantle the machine to fill or empty it, you are forced to place the motor housing with hose and cord in a tub or sink or get your floor dirty and wet.
- The machine is round. It doesn't fit well on stairs nor is it a convenient shape to store.
- There is no cord storage on this unit and no convenient way to store the cord or keep it out of your way when you are filling, emptying, or storing. You can wrap it around the base of the handle, but it usually does not stay in place if you empty the tank and tends to get in the way of using the handle to carry the machine.
- The Steamvac Jr. does have a spot to store the hose, but I find it an inconvenient and cumbersome position.
I'm currently saving my pennies to buy another Little Green. The little Hoover just makes me more angry than satisfied and I've taken to simply letting stains set in instead of hassle with the obnoxious machine.
I would recommend avoiding the Proheat Little Green. It seems the parts are not designed to work well with the heat and tend to break down. Hot tap water in the standard Little Green works well and this is coming from a germaphobe whose hands are raw from overwashing. If it's clean enough for me, it's probably more than clean enough for you. If you're looking for a spot shampooer, the Little Green is your best bet.

Bissell SpotBot Pet Hands-Free Compact Deep Cleaner, Blue Illusion, 1200A Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The other night my dog got into the cat's litter box (I use Fresh Step crystals - those crystals don't sit well in a dogs stomach) and she must have had a real fancy feast. I awoke to her vomiting all over my freshly dry cleaned comforter, and when I got up saw piles of diarrhea and more vomit in two bedrooms and two bathrooms. I'm thinking to myself, "This girl planned this," because just three days ago I had my carpeting professionally cleaned.
I didn't have time to do anything more than wipe up as much of the diarrhea and vomit as I could (and to tend to Joon's stomach, of course), as I was running late for an appointment. While I was out, I remembered seeing a commercial for this product, so on the way home, I picked it up.
When I had finished collecting any of the refuse that had dried while I was out, I approached this with skepticism. After all, it is a little difficult to believe that all you have to do is set the unit down over the stain, press a button, and then walk away.
But that's all you have to do. I was amazed at the simplicity of the design, and how easy it is to disconnect the collection and solution tanks. On the solution tank, Bissell has two sets of markings: one for use with their OxyGen2 product (which I haven't used yet), water, and formula; and another for water and formula alone. Those markings are very clear, and are a welcome design. There are three buttons to press: one for regular surface stains; another for set-in stains, and another to allow for manual use with the hose. When I pressed the surface stain button, I watched for a while as the unit switched between spray, suction, and brush functions. I have to say that watching the product work through the "Hands Free Cleaning Window" was pretty, er, cool. (Yeah, so I'm a dork. )
I walked away for a moment, and then heard the unit beep, indicating that it was done. I'm hearing impaired, and have a difficult time with high tones. I wasn't expecting to hear this, but I did - as clear as a bell - and I was at the opposite end of the apartment. I approached the unit with skepticism, but when I lifted it off the spot, the stains were gone. I proceeded to set the unit down on all of the spots throughout the apartment, coming back to it every time it beeped. It cleaned every spot.
This was by far the most pleasant, and the least physically exhausting experience I've ever had with a so-called steam or deep cleaner - and that "least physically exhausting" part is a big one for me.
Still skeptical, though, I thought to myself: Just see when it dries; the stains won't really be gone. This morning, however, every single spot had dried, and there wasn't an issue with the carpet feeling stiff due to soapiness.
As an aside, and as a comment to another review: This unit wasn't built or designed to clean an ENTIRE area rug, or, of course, anything larger. That's the purvey of large steam cleaners. It's called "SpotBot" for a reason. And it executes perfectly.
EDIT 8/22/07: The same dog got into something else, and left a mess of vomit and diarrhea all over the apartment. Again. (No, I'm not trying to poison my dogs, and this doesn't happen often.) Some of the diarrhea had occurred in the night, and it was stiff and wouldn't rub out using the hand brush. But using the hands-free option got the job done.
I feel very badly for my dog, of course, but at the same time am thankful to have had this unit. It made a world of difference. Every pet owner should have one.
ALSO, 2 TIPS for those who don't think the hands-free option retrieves enough water during its cycle:
1) After using the hands-free, detach the manual hose and use that suction, or;
2) Empty the solution tank, and run the hands-free option again. No water/formula will eject, so you'll have a couple of minutes of "pure" suction.
EDIT 8/24: For those interested, my dog is now fine. :-)

Bissell Spotlifter Powerbrush Handheld Deep Cleaner, 1716B Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We struggled between buying this unit and the comperable Dirt Devil offering, when we saw them at the local discount stores. Liking the stiffer dual-rotating beater-bar style brushes on the Bissell better than the much softer brushes on the spinning disk the Dirt Devil had, we settled on the Bissell. At the store, the only negative factor for the Bissell appeared to be it's one-year warranty, versus the two-years offered with the Dirt Devil.
We did not consider a cordless model, presuming they would be less powerful. We also did not consider a model without scrub brushes.
I used our new Bissell briefly last night on a couple of recent pet stains, and it did a good job. Today, I used it on all the rest of the pet stains on our light living room carpet, many of which were old. Almost all of them lifted well.
The Bissell clean tank will hold a full 8 oz. (3-4 oz. cleaning product and 4 oz. water), compared to the Dirt Devil that only holds a total of 6 oz. It does a decent job of suctioning up liquid. Many with the Dirt Devil seem to complain that it's suction is inadequate, and we did test its suction at the store and agree that it is weak.
The manual doesn't document the total clean tank size, how many ounces the "Formula" fill line is at, or how many the "Water" fill line is at, but I measured them. This way I know the proper dilution, if I choose to mix some of the cleaning product into a regular spray bottle for pretreating convenience, without hauling the heavier unit around. (They suggest leaving the pretreat on for 3-5 minutes.)
Note that once you've filled the clean tank, if you have a lot left over you do not have to empty it. You can save it for next time. (The disadvantage to doing this is that you would no longer have warm water to help you clean better.)
The 20' cord was more than adequate for us to get to the areas we needed to clean. Others complain that the Dirt Devil's cord is too big, but I'm not sure if that means diameter or length. The cord on the Bissell flows nicely. It isn't stiff and doesn't stay too curled up to be able to be used easily. It even had a convenient velcro strap that stays attached, to help you manage the cord for storage.
The unit is really easy to fill, operate and clean. Both the clean tank and the dirty tank detach and reattach very easily. Even the beater brush cartridge removes easily for cleaning. It only took me a few minutes to have it ready for storage again. Dirt Devil users complain that reattaching a tank is not always easy.
This is not a full size steam cleaner and I don't think it's fair to expect it to behave like one. It's great for the purpose it's designed for. Be sure to vacuum your capet before using it, if you haven't done so recently. This will minimize the amount of hair etc. to clean out of the brushes when you are finished using the Bissell. I did not do this, and it still wasn't bad to clean out the brushes.
The unit has a solid and durable feel to it. Dirt Devil users seem to think that unit is flimsey and has an awkward manual solution/water sprayer.
I think the product works well and would recommend it over the Dirt Devil. I am happy with it

Bissell SpotBot Hands-Free Compact Deep Carpet Cleaner, 1200B Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Hundreds and hundreds of reviews below this one, so here's a summary of all of the three hundred or so reviews below this one:
1. Almost everyone is a fanatical lover of this product. Sometimes it takes two or even three applications, but it seems to work except on some red stains, which any carpet cleaner will tell you are difficult. Otherwise, pet stains, and even very old stains are gone without a trace (we've tried this on a couple of *ten year old stains* and it pulled them right out), even after trying other devices and solutions that did not work. (My note for vomit or other stains of similar consistency, first clean as much as possible using the back of a knife, held at a 45 degree angle and scrape towards the center of the stain, cleaning the knife frequently or you'll just push the vomit into the carpet, though most report not doing this and it being completely clean anyway). People really like that you just start it and walk away, you don't have to monitor it.
2. The product cleans so well, used on a dirty carpet, you'll see circles that are cleaner than the rest of the carpet. Using the manual wand to soak up the solution when it is done will help, by spreading the cleaning solution into the non-cleaned area as you soak it up. Otherwise, you may have to use a regular machine to clean the entire carpet after you use this on a very dirty carpet.
3. People also report that it leaves the carpet VERY wet. But again, the manual wand used afterwards will take up the excess water. Tilt the wand so that the hose is up at about a 45 degree angle and run it slowly with medium pressure downward and most of the water will be sucked up. You can see the water getting sucked up from the side of the wand.
4. The best technique is to use a spray bottle of cleaning solution, diluted as directed for the machine, spraying the affected area, and using only water in this machine. It will use less of the expensive solutions, is just about as effective, and will not leave an excess of soap on the carpet. If you don't use the spray bottle technique, and instead you put the soap in the tank, 6 months later, the soap residue that is left on the carpet will attract its own dirt and so you'll have to reclean, but the spray bottle technique doesn't have this problem. So spray, turn the machine on, and wand up the excess water.
5. Some people report that the two included solutions work the best, others say that with the spray bottle technique it doesn't matter and others say using Costco carpet cleaning solution in the gallon jug works as well but is cheaper. One reported that vinegar and water worked and didn't smell when dry, but I don't think I'm gutsy enough to try that. Citrus based solutions and probably vinegar will damage the inside of it.
6. Some have reported that it may take some effort to get it to work at first. Check to make sure the containers are pushed all the way in. If that doesn't fix it, look at the FAQs on the Bissell web site in the support section for more detailed instructions. And note, don't do what we did at first, which is to put the water in the wrong tank. You put the water in the tank at the BACK of the unit. The other tank is where the dirty solution goes. You fill the tank that has a screw cap on the bottom of it. No screw cap? You've got the wrong tank.
7. Don't leave the tanks full, they leak. Run the unit on manual with *no* water in the tank for a few seconds to suck the solution out of the hose between uses or it may get moldy.
The product is every bit as good as what is written here. We've used it a couple of times. Don't put soap in it, the soap only goes in a your own separately purchased spray bottle used before you use the machine: nothing but water in the machine, and empty both tanks between uses. I just saved you hours of reading the remaining 300 reviews.
We bought the remanufactured version and haven't had any problems. Thumbs up.
Finally, when you have put your toe in the carpet cleaning waters, look at the Hoover F5914-900 SteamVac with Clean Surge for a full room carpet cleaner. It doesn't spot clean as well as this one, but you can do a whole room in under an hour, and it sucks the water back out of the carpet so thoroughly, the carpet dries in about an hour - faster if you blow it with a fan. Worth every penny. That one needs to be cleaned between uses (about 15 mins), so it takes a little more time to use. The Bissell is just a load and go product. The Hoover is more of an event.

Before treating any stain, you should first:
Gently scrape up semi-solids with a spoon or spatula. Do not use a knife or other utensil with sharp edges because it could damage the carpet or upholstery.
Blot up liquids with an absorbent cloth or paper towels. White materials are recommended because certain dyes may bleed and make the stain worse.
Remove the remaining semi-solids and residue with a sweeper or vacuum.
Be sure to pre-test any spot removal solutions or chemicals on an inconspicuous area first. This is extremely important; different dyes and materials could be damaged or discolored by a cleaning solution. If such a change should occur, try a different solution or call a professional.

Bissell Remanufactured SpotBot Hands-Free Compact Deep Carpet Cleaner, 1200R Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I used my SpotBot in what must have been the craftroom/kennel/gym of the previous owners. The nasty nylon carpet that came with the house is extremely reluctant to give up stains, but the SpotBot cleaned up oil and crusted-on soda spills easily. It even made significant inroads into smears of oil-based black paint. The ability to switch between automated and manual modes was helpful. On the worst stains, I ran a couple of automated cycles, then switched to manual mode and scrubbed. This is much more effective and powerful than my (good quality) carpet steamer. Yes, it does use a lot of cleaning fluid, and it takes time to address every stain (at least, if your carpet looks like this one). But it is still cheaper and faster than replacing flooring!

The hose and brush are stored on board for versatile cleaning of stairs, auto, and upholstery.

Before treating any stain, you should first: • Gently scrape up semi-solids with a spoon or spatula. Do not use a knife or other utensil with sharp edges because it could damage the carpet or upholstery.• Blot up liquids with an absorbent cloth or paper towels. White materials are recommended because certain dyes may bleed and make the stain worse.• Remove the remaining semi-solids and residue with a sweeper or vacuum.• Be sure to pre-test any spot removal solutions or chemicals on an inconspicuous area first. This is extremely important; different dyes and materials could be damaged or discolored by a cleaning solution. If such a change should occur, try a different solution or call a professional.

Bissell 0801 Oxy GEN2 Multi Purpose Oxygen Boost -32oz Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I hate to burst everyone's bubble. I've used this product with my Spotbot, because it came with it. I've used it in my Hoover Steamvac. I've used both the Spotbot and Steamvac without it. I have two kids and a dog that pees everywhere and I see no difference.
Spotbot is an excellent spot cleaner and it works perfectly well without OxyGen. I get all sorts of spots out with it and no need for OxyGen. Perhaps that's why everyone is getting such marvelous results. It's the Spotbot with regular detergent, not the OxyGen.
One big drawback to using OxyGen is the Spotbot manual instructs us to discard the unused solution if it contains OxyGen, meaning I can't leave it in my Spotbot. I don't have to do that with plain regular detergent. Since I must mix the OxyGen with water and detergent, I have to discard the detergent and OxyGen, which feels like a waste.
Personally, I don't think this product does any harm. It just doesn't do much good. Spend the extra money elsewhere.

Bissell Auto Care ProHeat Compact Multi-Purpose Deep Cleaner, 14254 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have used the Little Green Machine in the past and bought this to use on the cars that I detail and small stains on rugs in the house. I use it for small areas which are soiled with coffee or soda. I bought it because it had a higher amperage rating than the Green Machine. I have used it and it works very well for small areas. The water heater is just OK and I find that using an external source like an external sprayer and brush to loosen and wet the stain/dirt works the best; then I use the Bissell to suck up all the residue. I like the power of the suction and it works well. The dirty water tank has a cut off feature that will "pop" when filled to the limit which is nice, so you won't overfill it. After using it I clean it out any leftover dirt or stuff in the hose, tank or fittings. I know some reviews have said that it doesn't work well or clogs, but I have found that taking a little time to clean it out when done will eliminate most of those problems. Good for smaller areas; best to use proper cleaner for the stains.

A powerful mini steam-vac, this compact multi-purpose deep cleaner uses hot water and a cleaning agent to eliminate both deep-down dirt and surface spills. Designed especially for cleaning vehicle interiors, it also works great on carpeting, stairs, and upholstery in the home. The unit's built-in hot-water heater raises the temperature of tap water by 25 degrees F for enhanced results, while its strong spray and suction remove tough spots and stains, plus help dry, all in one step. The machine provides a 5-foot upholstery hose and two handy attachments: a 3-inch tough-stain brush and a two-in-one spraying crevice tool. Clean, soapy water stores in a solution tank on one side, and used, dirty water gets recovered into a separate collection tank on the other side. The tanks remove for easy filling, and the machine can be stored ready to use. Other details include a 9 amp motor, a 3- to 5-inch cleaning path, PCV-free parts, a 15-foot power cord, and quick-release cord-storage hooks. An 8-ounce bottle of Little Green cleaning solution comes included. The multi-purpose deep cleaner measures 8-1/5 by 17-1/5 by 12-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Bissell Little Green ProHeat Turbo Carpet Cleaner, 1425B Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I heavily researched before buying this model. I was attracted by the heater and turbo brush, and I read many positive reviews. It works great on carpet cleaning, however, within three uses the trigger 'jammed up.' When I took it to a Bissell repair shop (a very reputable vacumn repair shop) I was told that the cleaner burns onto the heater each time it's used, causing it to stop spraying. He recommended that it be flushed through with hot water after each use and stored without the fill/empty canisters. Otherwise, it would continue to break. He also said that the heater only adds about 10 degrees so it's a minimal benefit. He strongly encouraged me to return the model for a basic unit (1400) which is ... cheaper. He repairs all brands and encouraged me to purchase the Hoover SteamVac Jr. instead. He rairly encounters problems with their model, but sees many Bissells.
I purchased one and have used it once. I really love it. It works as well as the Bissell (both clean extremely well) but is easier to operate. I no longer have to 'flush' the system each time I use it (who has time for that?). With two little ones, purchasing a portable steam cleaner is a must; Bissell and Hoover make excellent choices (but stay away from the heater units)
I hope this is helpful.

Bissell SpotLifter 2X Portable Deep Carpet Cleaner, 1719 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought the Bissell SpotLifter 2X to replace an older Bissell model that finally wore out after 5 years. We have 3 indoor cats that frequently soil our rugs and carpeting, so a quick and easy carpet cleaner is a must. The old version worked well, but this model works even better.
The suction is much improved, and this model cleans our rugs and carpet much better than its previous version. Battery life is excellent -- we have used this cleaner several times over the past few weeks and still have yet to recharge the battery (the instructions recommend recharging only after the battery runs down to maximize battery life). The cleaning solution is readily available at places like Target and inexpensive. It is easy to empty the collection chamber after cleaning.
If you want a simple, affordable, rechargeable, cordless spot carpet cleaner, this is the one to buy. If the SpotLifter 2X lasts even half as long as the one it replaces it will have been a very good investment. I would not hesitate to buy it again.
