> 3 dayYou know, I looked so long & did so much research, I feel it would just be wrong not to review my new friend Bissell. For details on Bissell Pro specifically~ scroll to end. For research on options, keep reading. I have to say I did not intend to get a carpet or upholstery cleaner. I tried 3 different spots to rent one over a weekend & they were all gone or broken. In sharing my frustration with my mom, she surprised me with the Hoover upright pet cleaner. The thing works pretty good. For a 100 bucks & the small space it uses, worth it. However, what I really needed was upholstery & it does not have attachment options. So heres the rabbit hole I went down for weeks, actually months. Do I exchange for cleaner with attachments? Or get a spot cleaner? Well, every spot cleaner review states, they leak with some horror story of muddy water on a clean carpet. Every cleaner with attachments, other than the industrial size one you need a garage for, which we do not have the room as I live with Fred Sanford, states it doesnt clean as well as a pro. So, the only viable option is both or just a good spot cleaner, if you have smaller areas. Obviously, I went with the Bissell Pro Pet. I could say I Finally decided to try bc it went on sale but truth is, I was going to need professional help, if I read one more ounce of information so, it had to be done. After cleaning all my upholstery, which I am honestly grossed out by how much yuck came out, I can tell you this Bissel Pet Pro is the real deal. The only down side is, it cleaned my couch so well, I now have light patches. So either color was scrubbed off, or dirt was covering the faded spots (Spoiler, its the 2nd one) DETAILS~ ~Steam? Nope. You can add hot water but just doesnt feel hot as when you spray it out, kinda lukewarm. Plus, most pro soaps will do the job at home so, dont overthink it. ~Sprayer? Yes. You manually control it. It is a spray not a stream so, if you keep moving the hose, the water will not drench. ~Suction. Oh my word, Yes. Its truly horrifying to see the dirt run through the clear nozzle. Quick tip~ Suction over as many times as necessary until you dont see water & will dry quickly. ~Water containers~ Both removable with handles. ~ Dirty water container will hold 2 fills of the clean container. If you run out mid job, add some more clean water & keep going. Can be disassembled to clean inside. Just give the handle a good push to the other side & it will release. ~Clean water container, does drip when removing & refilling. Just some drips so if you know, youre prepared but may be issue in future. Last note, the spot cleaner. I did not have an accident to test it on but, this hockey puck sized nozzle was too fascinating not to try. Pretty sure this thing couldve sucked up the cat if she walked by. All in all this is worth every penny. On sale or retail at about $179 right now. As good as a Store rental machine with the space of a large backpack. Also, the cord is long enough to run to do auto detail. Dirty, nasty, work truck auto detail. I would buy the Bissell dinner if I could for the things its had to see.

> 3 dayWorks well. The handle feels a bit fragile so I am careful not to put too much pressure on the attachment connection when vacuuming. Easy to set up and clean when done.

> 3 dayIt works well but leaks a little bit. It’s also a very small brush so larger surfaces take longer. Overall, would recommend to clean up small spots

> 3 dayBissell is a reputable brand. I really wanted to like this and be able to keep it for small areas that my dogs love to have accidents on. It has great reviews and overall does what it claims, sorta. I am particular though. The suction just was not enough for me. It hurt my wrist after a while having to press down so hard to run the head over the carpet. You cant just go over it once after you spray. You have to add rigorous force to try to brush out any stains. The suction isnt superb, so you have to repeat your motions of removing the water. After reading reviews about the handle part breaking from a bad connection, I was very careful to have a good grip on where the head attaches to the tube. I did not use the carpet cleaner bottles that came with it. I used my Puracy carpet cleaner instead. The cord is super long, but the hose should be longer IMO. As for the soap & water reservoir, it is inconvenient for the cap to be on the bottom (although I understand why) because if you do not line it up just right, it starts leaking. I learned that the hard way and was so paranoid of continuous leaks, that I had it in a giant plastic tray while I moved around from room to room. Too much physical energy required on my end, and Im young and healthy! I dont recommend this if you are prone to wrist strains, elbow tendonitis, shoulder or lower back pain. I did get some good thigh and butt work in though, squatting to clean the hard to reach areas :). Overall, I prefer a professional to come to my house. Their equipment is just better.

> 3 dayWorks great. able to get through the nasty smells an stains with easy. Pretty good power for the compact design. Only thing I would change is the length of the hose it’s self. No complaints tho. Great product.
