- great little spot cleaner for the price
- I too read the reviews on this product before buying it, there were so many that loved it and so many that did not like it??? I decided to be my own judge for the price.
I figured for $70 I was not going to be out to much if it did not work really great....I have a small hand held, down on your hand and knees Dirt Devil spot scrubber... that work ok for small spots but forget if it is big... well I got the Bissell quick steamer and was extremely impressed.
It is so light weight..I have owned the expensive $300 steamers that are so heavy my back aches for a week after cleaning the floor, not with the Bissell quick steamer..., small, easy to store and gets the big spots out too..Like everyone said it does not steam, it does not have rotating brushes, and the water does not heat up....but I still think it really works great..But then I guess if you have really dirty carpets rent the industrial cleaner at the super market and get this for the spot cleaning...in between cleanings...it will get the spots out or at least it did for me, I have a seven year old son and a five month old puppy..... Thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll keep the little dirt devil scrubber for the stairs. - 2008-09-06, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- It sucks!
- Things I like about this:
Sucks alot of water out, carpet is nearly dry by the time I am done.
Lightweight, not too big, easy to store and easy to empty the container with no confusing parts to mess with.
A quality build, I've had mine for more than 2 years, which is some kind of a record for a cleaning device made for the mass retail market in my experiance.
Though the list of dislikes is longer than the list of likes, I only wanted it to suck the moisture out of the carpet, and that it does (for the most part!).
Things I don't like:
Doesn't suck water right up to the .5th of an inch edge of the carpet where it meets the wall, when cleaning cat urine stains I had to try to sop it up with a rag, not fun.
Doesn't actually heat the water, but you can use hot water in it- manual style.
Water gets sloshed around in the lower compartment as it gets full, and due to it's design it can leak or spash on you, leading to alot of very gross moments and emergency laundry situations.
Hair can get clogged in the main compartment so make sure you have a good vaccum to get it all up beforehand.
I have a Koblens floor cleaner that scrubs my floors, I doubt the static floor cleaning bristles on this device could do the job. But for just pure extraction, it's the way to go! I'm blown away how somthing so cheap could work so well. I wish it soaked up all the urine in one pass, as it is I have to empty it several times... but for only 2 times what it costs to rent an extractor I can spare the time.
I also use this to soak up the water on my tile bathroom floors after I clean them. Works like a charm, barley leaves any moisture behind.
Buy it!! Perfection won't be had for less than $300 bucks for this kind of machine, I can almost guarantee that. - 2008-09-03, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Better than Oreck
- I bought this item to replace an Oreck 'steam cleaner' with which I was fed up. The Oreck costs a fortune AND it's heavy, hard to use and very troublesome to clean . Add to that the fact that, despite it's price, the Oreck is NOT a steam cleaner--it relies on hot tap water like every other brand.
HOWEVER, this little Bissel had it's maiden voyage today, and I'm happy to report that it's easy to use and lightweight, yet it picks up just as much dirty water as my old horrible Oreck.
The clean water and dirty water tanks on the Bissel are separate, unlike Oreck. SO the Bissel tanks are so much easier to remove and re-insert.
There's virtually no assembly required (one screw). And one additional 'plus' is that you can use any cleaning solution you want. (Oreck's design forces you to use their brand only.) I wanted a hypo-allergenic solution which Bissel sells.
The bottom line is that, so far as I can research, no carpet 'steamer' sold for home use actually produces real steam. So don't waste your money on expensive models.
This one does the job even in my household of multiple cats, dogs and sometimes muddy garden. You won't break your arm pushing it around and you won't make up excuses to procrastinate the carpet cleaning chore.
If it REALLY produced steam, I would give it five stars. - 2008-08-19, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- This thing is AMAZING--my water was BLACK
- This is my first review on Amazon. I never reviewed anything in the past, but this thing is truly amazing, and I had to submit my review!!
I cleaned two 15x15 rooms, and it took me maybe 45 minutes to do. The water that came out after each time was a thick dark brown/black color, and was DISGUSTING. My floors look like new.
Small, lightweight, and amazing. - 2008-08-07, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Amazingly easy-from box-to-very clean-carpeting
- Ordered Sat - rec'd Tuesday July 29th - Assembles in 10 min or less -
At 69 I wasn't into anything mechanical - Found the directions easier than a cake recipe. 3 screws - Fired up - All carpet is Cream - did Lrm paths and 2 pet accidents - then onto the worst for a real test - Cream floor area carpet in Den - NOT protected by a mat at desk. 4 Yrs wear and matted down - wheeled chair - short nap carpet - 20 minutes later this area under chair matches the original - The extractor function leaves it nearly dry - and A very pleasant scent to cleaner also.
Only one thing to watch - 1st time opening to fill solution tank /the black screw cap to the fill tank was in two pcs. so a little 'talking to' removed it the first time. After that, it is fine. More than met my expectations in Bissell Quality and performance.
And the Free shipping a real selling point. - 2008-07-30, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
