Bissell BigGreen Commercial Little Green Pro Commercial Spot Cleaner, Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner and Car/Auto Detailer with Deep Stain Tool, 6" Tough Stain Tool BGSS1481

Works great, but should catch stains when they are fresh, to remove completely. This is a well made nice addition to any house with a fair amount of carpeting.

This is not a cheap product! It does a grand job, and it looks like we'll have it for a long time.

This is an awesome product. Cleans up anything i have thrown at it including pet waste and dirt

Work at a college. Lots of students spilling drinks, food, etc on the fabric chairs in the quad. Used the Bissel to clean approximately 40 chair seat cushions one Saturday. It cleaned up a fair amount of stains and general ick.FYI - I would suggest pre-treating harder stains. I also used very very hot water and found the soap solution tank would start to leak from the pressure build up until the water cooled a bit.

I have had indoor pet cats for many years. I love them, but there is always the occasional need to clean the carpets. Years ago (2009) I had previously purchased Bissell’s “12U9A SpotBot ProHeat Handsfree Compact Deep Cleaner”. The SpotBot was a wonderful help in cleaning up but it had its limitations (won’t list the all here). I always used the hand-wand for cleanup since the “automatic” brush did not clean as well as doing the cleanup with the wand – not a big problem but that’s just the facts on how it performed. One of the weakness of the SpotBot (and the reason I had to retire the unit) was the construction of the hand wand. It was all plastic and when this part of the unit finally broke I needed a replacement. After some serious searching I decided to try this unit, the “Bissell Little Green Pro Commercial Spot Cleaner BGSS1481”. I must tell you that this unit is a vast improvement in almost every way. Improvements include better construction (among the improvements are metal parts on the hand wand), stronger suction, portability, cord storage, dirty water tank (better design and easier to rinse and clean). The unit is loud when in operation – not surprising since the vacuum motor that produces suction for the wand is more powerful. I would highly recommend this unit.Hint: After cleaning a mess from the carpet I strongly believe it is a good idea to rinse out the vacuum tube (the tube between the hand-wand and the machine). Doing this should keep the hand-wand clean (internally) as well as the vacuum hose. These parts can accumulate “crap” over time from repeated cleanups. I have found the easiest and most effective way to accomplish this to simply carry the unit to a nearby bathroom sink, run some water into the sink and allow the unit to pull clean water from the sink through the system and into to wastewater tank. Then empty the wastewater tank before storing the unit.UPADTE June 18, 2023: I purchased this unit in January 2023. With two indoor cats it has been in routine use – sometimes daily – and my assessment of it is unchanged. It continues to perform well and does a great job of cleaning the carpet after cat throw up. An additional hint… I keep a dull knife (an old “butter” knife that was retired years ago) handy when cleaning cat throw up. I will always begin by scraping the carpet with the knife to remove any solid waste before using the Bissell machine. Knife scrapings are transferred to a paper towel. Doing this first will also loosen the carpet fiber and makes the remainder of the cleanup with the Bissell more effective. I always use Bissell’s brand of cleaning solution in the vacuum but if the carpet appears seriously stained, I will also spray it lightly first – usually with something like Formula 409 – followed by hand rubbing the moistened carpet with a clean paper towel. The Bissell is then used to finish the job and remove any liquid residue from the carpet. The bottom line is this: If for any reason I needed a second (or replacement) carpet pet cleaner I would not hesitate to purchase this device again.

Worked fantastic on toys and otherwise not washer safe clothes (such as wool hats and coats). It's like an giant magic eraser diluted Mr clean. Little heavy but still easy to up and down stairs carrying it.

Stay away. Worked ok for 30 minutes. Decent suction and sprayer worked…. Then it didn’t spray. So I now have weak vacuum.

This lil things works perfectly. Cleaned rugs, sofas, even the my car.
