Greater than one weekThis isn’t a carpet shampooer, it’s a MIRACLE worker. Most of my house is tile and laminate but there is carpet in my bedroom, office and then there is this 7x10 rug in the living room. I purchased the rug secondhand on market place and it needed a deep clean. My other carpet cleaner stopped working and I was desperately in need for a fix for this rug (as you can see in the photos). I have three dogs that shed like it’s their only job on this earth. I literally vacuumed over this rug non stop for 25-30 minutes straight making sure that I got it as clean as possible before shampooing. AND YET the shampooer pulled up hair that the vacuum couldn’t quite get!!! Pros: - I love that it is light weight and doesn’t hurt my back at all to use. - It is super easy to put together/ very user friendly. - It obviously does the job it was intended to do. - A little spray goes a long way for each spot. - The suction was strong enough that my carpet was barely damp at all after going over it a few times. Cons: - The formula tank is small and I had to refill it a second time just doing the 7x10 foot rug. - I wish the cord was just a smidge longer. - It didn’t completely remove stain. (However it was ketchup and it did better than I expected. So honestly I can’t really be upset at this). Overall, this is a GREAT investment and for the price I don’t believe you can find a better product. Do yourself a favor and buy this one. I went back and forward on a different option before buying this and I am SOOO glad I did.

> 3 dayNeeded a carpet shampooer in general but especially because I have two cats and one is very picky about his litter box and it doesnt take much for him to decide to use the living room carpet instead. Looking through different models to find a decent budget one that wasnt too expensive I found this one and saw many good reviews. I decided to check if there were any used units available to save some more money and ordered one listed as used in good condition with cosmetic blemishes. When I got it in it turned out to be brand new. Everything was still wrapped and bagged, and neither water tank had any trace of ever being used nor had any odors. So the verdict? It cleans well but I have three minor quibbles with it. The first is the position of the power switch. Its on the back and almost at the bottom. This requires you to either bend down to the floor or lift it high enough to access it. Its not very heavy but still a bit awkward and I wouldve preferred a switch near the top or on the handle somewhere. The second thing concerns spraying solution. Commonly with upright shampooers youll start by moving it back and forth over the carpet while leaning it backwards at an angle with the head up off the surface and locked so you can spray cleaning solution as a presoak where needed. Then once the required amount of time has passed for the dirt and soils to have loosened and started dissolving you put it back down and shampoo like normal. With this machine however doing this will waste a good amount of the cleaning solution as it immediately sucks what looks like half of it back up. Im guessing either the suction is that strong, the spray nozzle is too close to the intake, or both. The third thing is minor and barely warrants mentioning but its still something I wish were different. The waste water tank is held down by clamps on either side. Youll have to bend all the way over and reach nearly to the bottom on both sides to snap them open. This isnt difficult and they snap open/closed easily but having used a different brand in the past where the waste water tank simply slid up and out, I wish it were more like that. I docked only one star for all of this. Its still a nice budget machine and Im satisfied with it.

> 3 dayI will say that this unit extracted a LOT of dirt from the carpet. I did use another brand of deodorizer/cleaner solution (for humans instead of pets). So far, the maiden voyage was good. I will have a follow up in the coming weeks. One thing to note, I have not experienced any leaking when removing the clean or dirty water reservoirs. If it continues to perform i see no issue giving it 5 stars.

> 3 dayI’m happy with this machine. It’s not heavy and it’s easy to use. It only took a minute to put it together. My only complaint is the reservoir is not larger enough for large jobs. Or, maybe I’m using too much water. It cleans well regardless

> 3 dayBefore photo taken after vacuuming (but before shampooing) and After photo taken after two passes with the shampooer. The water is from the second pass. Thats right, the second. Not the first. Hot tip- make sure to move very, very slowly over the sprayed area so the machine can suck up as much nasty fluid as possible. This is the best purchase Ive made in a long time. Thank you!

> 3 dayI ordered this BISSELL TurboClean DualPro Pet Carpet Cleaner and a part came broken/missing. I called Amazon thinking they’d have me contact Bissell for that individual piece, or perhaps they would call Bissell. But NOPE, (!!) they opted to just send me a completely new shampooer!! Totally blew me away… Now that’s GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!! Might I mention I had already used the shampooer and it works like a charm, cleaning my carpet to a new condition!! Very, very, pleased with it!!

> 3 dayThis is a great product to use for smaller areas. I’ve used the large cleaners you rent at the hardware store many times. They have their uses. But for the normal situation at home this more than adequate. Easy to use, lightweight, easy to handle, this unit cleans well where there are light to moderate levels of dirt. We like it very much. One note: while this unit doesn’t flood your carpet with solution, the solution does penetrate to the back of the carpet. We found it very helpful to place an old shower curtain between the carpet and pad and to expose the back if the carpet to the air for drying. We also utilized a fan. We do not know how this unit works with wall to wall carpeting, just how it works with large area rugs.

15-11-2024My carpet is very old but with 2 old dogs, I’m not ready to change it now. The carpet cleaner worked great, dried fast, and left my carpet soft. I used solution recommended with cleaner. I was very happy for the results and price.

> 3 dayLightweight. Covers come off brushes easily so you can clean out pet hair and junk so it doesnt just get trapped in there until you have to buy another one. Very easy to use.
