Bissell 1425B Little Green Proheat Turbo Carpet Cleaner
I purchased the Bissell 1425B Little Green Proheat Turbo Carpet Cleaner because I needed something to clean my sofa. My daughter has 2 puppies and one of them had an accident on my sofa. I also have cats and one of them got sick an the sofa. I am also the mother of 5 kids so needless to say things have been spilled on the sofa. The Proheat Turbo worked amazing it saved me from having to buy a new couch.
It cleans terrific and dried in just a few hours. I DO NOT REGRET BUYING THIS PRODUCT.
The only reason this product got 4 stars instead of 5 is because it is very difficult to clean the back of the sofa because the machine leaks if you hold the brush up/down, but on flat surfaces it is a must for pet owners and parents.
Carpet cleaner works well

We use the cleaner almost every day and it works great. Animal problems are removed easily by this cleaner, and it is more handy than our large carpet machine.

I love this cleaner, I have cleaned just about everything with it. It is so portable and easy to use. It makes everything so much easier.
Absolutely fabulous!

This is quite possibly the best 90$ I have ever spent.
My dog has an ear infection and consequently is on antibiotics. The antibiotics are causing digestive problems for both ends (enough said). Anyway, this makes clean-up very efficient for both debris removal and stain removal.
Horrible in almost every way

I researched this too, and was attracted by its relatively low price, heater, and turbo brush. It does do some things decently. It does make clean up quick, and fairly easy, until it breaks, which doesn't take long.
Mine worked great for about six months of occasional use. I like to take the least amount of work option, so I stored it with the cleaner solution in it, and just rinsed out the dirty water container every time I used it. After about six months the thing started leaking the cleaning solution all over the floor. O.K. I thought, I'll just store that too, upside down, so I don't have to worry about it.
I have pets, and they do have accidents. After about six months, the thing started clogging up a lot. The turbo brush was pretty cool, but it would clog nearly every time I used it. I had to keep a tooth brush with it so I could scrub the nozzle and clear it. This is with the Bissell shampoo used as directed (which is also horrible by the way since it doesn't seem to clean anything well, and has little strings of soap in it).
After about a year from the purchase date, the turbo brush died. It cracked where the fluid comes in, just like the other nozzle, but about three years earlier.
I fix stuff, so I kept on using it. About the same time, the fluid just stopped working. I took it apart and found that the heater unit has all sorts of corrosion in it because it's made of pot metal (bad stuff). I scrubbed it out and got it working again, which required almost complete dissasembly of the unit.
It clogged again within months, so I just took the whole heater unit out and bypassed it. Then at about 18 months, the pump died, it was cheap plastic too, and had a motor like my kids toys. I replaced the pump and got it working again with the bypassed heater.
it worked like that for several years, but the suction was only so so, but in this basic state it worked like the cheap unit it is for about four years total until the last brush/nozzle cracked. What a pile. This thing is made with the quality of my kid's happy meal toys. Don't buy it. I have a feeling in this field you get what you pay for.

lifesaver for a puppy owner

I have only owned this product a month, but in that time I've cleaned up many pet mistakes. Spray on cleaners left very light spots on my carpet, possibly clean spots, but this and the pet odor and stain remover cleaned the puppy's mistake without fading my carpet. Many reviews suggest clogging which I have yet to experience, but if this machine gets us through housebreaking I will be satisfied. It also works great for cleaning vehicles. My van is free of juice, coffee and chocolate milk stains. It is easier to have on hand for a quick clean up rather than drag around a large steamvac, which I also own.
I gave it four stars instead of five because often the dirty water drips back out while I'm putting it away for storage. I might have to run the suction brush along dry carpet to be sure nothing is left in the hose.
Performs in par with price and functionality

This is the best carpet shampooer for automotive detailing for the money. Make sure to get the one with the heated water option (Red Button next to the black button)
It is one of the only shampooers with heated water than can operate on a standard outlet without having to pre-heat the water. This is because the heat and suction are weaker, but they are strong enough to do a good job.
Do not get this for large areas such as carpets.
They last for roughly 4-6 months under constant use.
Yours too will quit working- I guarantee it!

For all of those who gave this product 5 stars, I offer this predction. It will work great for a year or two-depending how often you use it, and then one day it will quit spraying. It happened to my original Bissell little green, and being an optimist, I bought another one. It also quit spraying after 18 months of use. Bissell's advice to unplug the sprayer with a paperclip will not work either.
For a company that produces expensive products that quit working after 18 months and are expensive to repair to make another similar product labeled "earth friendly" is a joke. I can't even fathom how many of these little green machines are in landfills. It's inexcusable.

Wonderful little machine. Does a great job on upholstery and carpet spots. Weight makes it easy to manage. Wish I had bought something like this a long time ago.
