Works great on tough stains! This Shark StainStriker is powerful for a portable cleaner. It easily removed pet stains, spills, and dirt from carpets, upholstery, and car seats. Suction is strong, the tools are useful, and it’s easy to use and clean. Compact but very effective—definitely worth it! Read more

I used it to detail my car seats that got some really bad stains. Excellent suction power, quiet, convenient size and weight. I liked that you could focus on cleaning and don’t have to change the tanks often. It was so efficient that I advanced faster than expected. The different tools are also very helpful. The nozzle sprays evenly and you can control how much cleaner you need to use. It cleaned old stains that I had not been able to remove before. The tools fit in places that I didn’t expect and I was able to do more cleaning than expected. My car bad smell was neutralized and it smells fresh and clean. It is perfect! I don’t have a before picture of all my seats, but it did an excellent job removing stains and suctioning the cleaning solution. Totally worth it. Read more

After reading the reviews on this item, I decided to give it a try. The packaging is very heavy duty and secured the item well. The directions are simple to follow and the machine is easy to use right out of the box. Not only did it clean well, it did not leave my items soaking wet. The suction was powerful and effective. Once I was finished cleaning, emptying the dirty water from the device was simple. I was able to rinse and dry the used parts with ease. I highly recommend adding this powerful little tool to your cleaning arsenal. Read more

So far so good. Got this last year (2024) and it has survived 3 dogs and 3 cats (1 passed away and we got another). Multiple different bodily fluids from all animals. And they surely do shed like crazy. It does a pretty good job of separating the hair from the liquids/fluids and getting rid of the stains, however who knows just how deep it actually goes. The sucking power isn’t as great as say a ShopVac, as the carpet IS still wet after we go over it a million times, even after cleaning off the hair from the head. But when looking in the tank it IS sucking up the nasty stuff, so clearly doing something. And our carpets don’t smell nor have stains and it’s been able to get up OLDDDD stains as well which is both impressive on the behalf of the machine itself and the solution in my opinion. I’ve used it on carpet, decor pillows, couches, etc. it’s done it all. Works fairly well. Just wish it had better sucking power so I could use more solution to make sure we’re fulling cleaning up and out those stains especially the old ones. Maybe just need to upgrade at this point.

This is it! Having read and listened to reviews even on YouTube etc, I was able to discern which Carpet Upholstery & Area Rug Cleaner we would try. This met all of our "marks" if you will for what we were looking for. Good suction, power, light weight, and it cleans beautifully. Easy to put together, to use, and is so portable for our needs. We have, "had" light dirt build-up in a couple of areas, mind you, I watched dirtier stains/spots being cleaned with this machine & now I know that those videos or examples of how this machine cleans harder/deeper dirt & it actually does. You can see the removal dirty water etc as it is cleaning. Several attachments, no need for more & yes, I did view another Co's products that are based in my town where I live, but they did not compare to this one. It doesn't come with a storage bag, as I knew, so no worries, I simply ordered the bag (product info below) and this bag was spacious enough to hold my machine, so I'm set. Even though the bag states Bissell, THIS BAG holds my Shark StainStriker beautifully. Storage Case is: QWARVEL Storage Case for Bissell Carpet Cleaner Machine 3682/2458/3624/3860/Hoover Carpet Cleaner FH14050, Carry Bag. Portable Steam Cleaner Storage Bag Only. Read more

This little machine has just been fantastic! It works well in removing stains for the little accidents that occur from time to time. The suction is great and makes the carpet look like new again. Just so you know, I have 2 yorkies and my carpet is a light tan. The machine is so easy to use and works well. It suctions the water up out of the carpet and it looks great. The spray is also very effective in that it covers the area. I love this machine and wish I had got it a long time ago - it would have saved me some frustration. Read more

I have lovely blue and white Chinoiserie carpets, an indoor-outdoor cat, and live out in the country. I noticed that portions of the white part of the carpets were getting brown. I searched for carpet cleaners on Amazon, read lots of reviews, and settled on this one, waiting for big prime day discounts. The first day this came, I tried it out. The instructions were very thorough, the solutions were all included, and it was very easy to use. It did such an amazing job, that I realized I needed to do the whole carpet because the small part I had cleaned was so much whiter than the rest of the carpet. The only negative is that it is very loud. But it is totally worth it. This picture doesn’t show the stark difference, but you can kinda see how much cleaner the bottom strip is than the top.
