Bissell TurboClean PowerBrush Pet Carpet Cleaner, 2987,Green/ Black

This machine cleans! My old Hoover carpet cleaner died. Until I used this one I didnt realize how poorly the Hoover was cleaning. I think the carpets are cleaner than any time when I used the Hoover. I wish I had before and after photos. The cons are not really cons considering the price. Plus: lightweight, easy to maneuver, really cleans. The solution tank is marked for water level and solution level. Cons: small water tank, wastewater tank hold down clamps require some muscle, the plug on the wastewater is probably weakest link and you must hear click to know it is seated, and no extra tools. Remember this the baby brother of their lineup. Be prepared for lots of debris as this guy pulls up as it crosses the carpet. I keep the dust buster handy. This is best for small rooms. My 20 x 20 foot room required three tanks of solution. Their directions suggest you apply solution up and back. I also rinse with one run of plain water. For whatever reason they do not want you to use boiling water.

The easiest carpet cleaner I have ever used. Even though it is a very basic model, it is a true champ. So easy to clean up, empty and rinse the tank, and carry.

Easy to use with awesome cleaning ability..easy to clean and for a great price..will tell all my friends

Lightweight, easy to maneuver. Not much harder than vacuuming, just a bit slower! Really cleaned my rug! Bought this to use after winter rains here on the California coast with 2 big dogs going in and out in all weather, tracking in lots of dirt. Pulled it out of the box finally this morning. Less than 5 minutes from setting up to using!!! So impressed I took this picture to show how well it was cleaning. My only con for this is the relatively small wash fluid and dirty water reservoirs. But that being said, they are both very easy to remove and install. And since less than a gallon of water they are lightweight and easy on the hands and back. Love love love this carpet cleaner!!!!!

The last time i bought a carpet cleaner was maybe 20 years ago. I feel like there must have been some advances in the technology because this cleaner was lighter, faster, and so much better than my older one (even when it was new) I finished my living room and hall in maybe an hour and a half where as before it’d take me half a day. Carpet also dried in just a few hours. Its been a few weeks and my living room carpet still looks great. I’m very impressed!

I like how simple it is to fill and empty. It does a surprisingly good job cleaning and pulling water out of the carpet which is the main reason I bought this. I didnt expect much given the low price but this carpet cleaner delivers! I still have it 5 stars despite a couple of things I dont like about it. Both tanks are on the small side so dumping and filling are pretty frequent, and the on/off button is near the bottom of the handle and not especially easy to operate or get to.

Bought this carpet cleaner to combat long-time, set-in stains that were here when I bought the house and had been made worse by traffic. My carpet is an older Berber, and it did fine with this machine. There was no snagging or pulling at any point. This is probably the best money I’ve spent in a really long time. As you can see in the photos, the dirt and grime was lifted completely from the carpet. The machine was incredibly easy (and satisfying) to put together, and it was simple to use. I bought a bottle of solution with my purchase, and I definitely think I would’ve needed it despite the cleaner coming with a smaller bottle of solution. But as you can see, these stains were big and tough. I vacuumed the hallways thoroughly before using the cleaner. It is a bit loud, so keep that in mind. It took several trips to either refill the solution tank or empty the dirty water tank, but those hassles were completely worth the results. This machine does have a trigger, and the instructions recommend pressing the trigger while going forward and backward. I ran the machine over the spot several times during the non-triggered (sucking) phase, and the carpet was damp at worst. It took no time to dry completely, and the smell of the solution did not stick around like some cleaners tend to do. In the picture with the door, you can see the stain has some rounded areas. I tried my much smaller Bissell pet spot cleaner on that stain. It was mostly successful, but you can see this cleaner removed the stain completely. Cleanup was only mildly tedious, with having to really rinse the dirty water tank, and then remove the plastic piece where the machine sucks up the water to clean it. I left everything loosely put back together to let it all dry. Again, these tiny hassles are completely worth it to me. I cannot wait to use this appliance again, especially knowing maintenance will be much easier each time. My carpet feels new, and it looks great. I know other Berber owners had issues, but I would imagine newer, higher pile Berber may react differently to the suction of this machine. My older, flatter Berber did fine. If you’re on the fence or have been eyeing this machine for a while, here’s your sign to buy it. It really works.

We bought this to help with spot cleaning after the pets and kids between professional carpet cleanings. For that purpose, it was incredibly effective and efficient. After cleaning up a few spots, there was still cleaner in the tank, so I decided to try and clean one of our rugs. It was so far gone that I figured trying to clean it couldnt hurt. To my delight and surprise, this machine breathed new life into the rug! It went from grey and seemingly faded to the beautiful blues and greys that inspired me to buy it in the first place. And better yet, the whole thing took only about 20 minutes. Like others have said, the tank is small. I cant imagine trying to do a whole room or a particularly egregious job with this. It seems perfect for spot cleaning and the occasional rug, not as a replacement for getting our rugs professionally done once or twice a year.

Got this while pregnant to give the carpets a good deep clean. It was easy to put together and light weight. Works very well and I was happy with the end results. You need to empty the dirty reservoir about 2-3 times for each cycle from the clean reservoir. It usually stopped sucking up the water before the full line on the dirty reservoir. Other than that is was hassle free and didnt leak or make messes, It was also easy to clean the areas that got dirty. No extra attachments.

I have lived at this apartment going on 3 years now and have only vacuumed before. I have two cats and two dogs, one of which is elderly and the other is a puppy. My Review: The instructions werent very good for someone who has never used a carpet cleaner before, though I did appreciate the diagrams regarding how to take it apart and clean it. As far as the actual cleaning, it does seem to work really well, but I can confirm the numerous reviews that it takes many hours for even half of a normal sized room. It is also rather annoying how often you have to dump out the dirty water and add fresh, it really wears your back out bending over a ton and then walking with the machine for hours. For someone who hadnt had their carpet cleaned in years, it took me over 4 hours just to do a 6x6 foot section of my bedroom and I was still pulling up dirty water - be sure to set aside 8 or so hours if your situation is similar to mine and youre attempting a reasonable sized section at once. I will acknowledge that, for the price of this one vs the many others out there, it does its job if youre willing to put in the time and effort. Additional Tips: + Wear Earbuds/Headphones, the carpet cleaner is loud like a normal vacuum, so just leaving a TV on or something isnt good enough. + Wear a Mask if Chemical Smells bother you. Though the Bissell Pet Pro with Febreze smells better than just the Pet Stain and Odor one, both are really strong and gave me massive headaches. + Keep a window open. Even if the Chemical Smell doesnt bother you it really helps to have fresh air during the cleaning and after.
