1st time using so can’t speak to longevity of this product. Super easy assembly-just click together. Very lightweight and with that feature comes smaller capacity solution tank and narrower cleaning path but worth an extra refill to save your shoulder! Can’t really comment on normal drying time as I make multiple drying sweeps with the cleaner to extract as much moisture as possible and used many fans to speed up drying time. Carpet looks and feels great after dry and throughly vacuuming to remove any residual pet hair or shampoo. It did remove a few spots that my older and much heavier carpet cleaner couldn’t. I used the included Urine Odor solution and carpet smells wonderful. Emptying dirty water tank easy and a few rinses removed all debris. LOVE the feature to removal nozzle cover to clean! Overall very happy with this purchase and hope it will last a few years. It will be used A LOT! Read more
I have always liked Bissell products and this one does not disappoint me. It's smaller than the previous one, but it works better. It is easy to use and you do not have to constantly clean the brushes after each use. You have to empty it more often than the larger cleaners, but I don't mind because it makes a big difference when it comes to cleaning the carpet. I also like the smaller tool for upholstering stairs or upholstery. I wish I had a before and after because this small machine does a great job! Read more
The media could not be loaded. Works like a charm—powerful and easy to use I was pleasantly surprised by how well this carpet cleaner performs. I initially put it together just to test it out, following the directions, and ended up cleaning two bedrooms and a couple of area rugs because it worked so well. It removed several "stains". Therapeutically speaking it tweaked my cleaning compulsion!!!! It’s easy to assemble, lightweight, and very effective at pulling up dirt and refreshing carpets. The included cleaning formulas are a great bonus and handled everyday messes with no problem. The only drawback is that I wish the dirty water reservoir were larger, since it fills up quickly when you’re doing multiple rooms. That said, it’s a small trade-off for how well it cleans. But I suppose that's what those larger rental units are for- "industrial" like cleaning. I'll trade the handy convenience of pulling this one out the closet . Overall, this machine does exactly what it promises and is perfect for regular home use. I’m very happy with it and would definitely recommend. Got to go - heading to attack my mothers apartment!

This is my third rug shampooer. Had two other brands previously that were cumbersome and only minimally effective. When the second one broke down recently I panicked because with two dogs this is not optional equipment. A friend owns and suggested this one so I bought it. Could not believe how light weight it is and yet it cleans better than larger models. So easy to assemble and fill and unlike my last two, this one efficiently sucks up the dirty water so the carpets dry much faster and is easy to empty and clean. It removed old stains and made my older carpet look so much better. The cord length is adequate to easily move around the room. It makes the dreaded chore of carpet shampooing much less painful.

Well it did a great job! I just got it yesterday and so today was the day! You do have to fill the water and empty the dirty water more often than with the bigger ones, but it’s because the little containers are smaller than those big bulky machines. It’s a small price to pay for clean floors on a budget and a smaller machine to contend with and live with in a small space. We live in a RV now and my big Bissell Pro Heat went out. Bissell told me it was the pump. Well, it’s old. That model was from like 2008 haha- Try and tell me it wasn’t a good one!! Anyway I was tired of that thing being in our way. I have a Little Green spot cleaner machine and it does a great job, but it just wasn’t big enough for me to keep my carpet clean. Bissell we need an extender pole so we could clean standing and not kneeling with the attachments ;). Anyway, I saw this little machine with the attachments and all and I was ready to try me one! Well, waa laa we now have nice clean carpets again! My husband was very happy that he now has more room to let his recliner back as well! - Oh we managed with the big one back there, but Baby Bissell as I’ve nicknamed him ;) fits a lot better! We just didn’t need another big machine for 300 sq ft. Oh it does require a bit of refilling and emptying out the dirty water and such, and cleaning out the roller at the end was a bit of a mystery to me as well. The front part comes off but the bottom doesnt as far as I can tell! Well I sprayed it out with my sink sprayer. It isn’t very big so It wasn’t hard. I managed and it worked great! It cleaned up our mess and dried so quick, too! Amazing how fast your carpets will dry when the the pump is working correctly! If you’re looking for a smaller machine and/or an inexpensive way to clean small areas, this may be the one for you! Oh and I loved the improvements they’ve made to the accessory brush tool (Its now self cleaning and comes apart to clean too - Thank You Bissell! 🙏) And that edge tool, too, wow! Nice! 😊 👍 i didn’t even need my spray bottle and tiny brush to get up in the tight places! The accessories do it ALL for you and in the end, even clean themself! Wow! If you decide to get one, Be sure you get the model with the attachments! We all need those! And these work great! All in all I’m happy with my purchase and our big Bissell is now off to that great dumpster in the great beyond! Have a great night! And Happy carpet cleaning to you all! :) Read more
