OK but not all that 
2008-08-18
I usually have my carpet professionally cleaned about once a year and was hoping to use this for the in-between times. I have a cat who now and then sneaks a little dog food and then of course vomits. This vomit turns out red-based because of the food. With this product being called spot bot for pets I was hoping it would do better. It only barely lightens the red-based stains to a pink color, certainly not removing it. It does seem to work so far on other stains that aren't so reddish. I used it three times on one of the bad spots, but still no luck. Very easy to use right out of the box, though, everything you need comes with it. It could be expensive to use also, it only cleans a very small area and it uses quite a bit of chemical each time. If I had used this before purchasing, I'm not sure I would have gone ahead and bought it.
Love It

Greatest cleaning product I have ever owned. It's easy to use for a quick cleanup, with no labor involved. Just start it and go to something else you need to do.
AWESOME! 2008-08-11
I love the SpotBot! I wish I would have bought it ages ago. The attachment works great too!
Best small appliance I ever purchased and a total stress reliever 2008-08-08
I haave a new puppy who is not house broken so this machine is taking so much of the stress out of that process since if he does not make it out I can take care of the mess without any hassel. That is so much better than what we used have to do. This machine is a real life saver.
GREAT MACHINE! 2008-08-08
I have four dogs in the house. One of them is a puppy and the oldest is fourteen. Needless to say we have had to use this machine many times. It does a great job for such a small machine. I recommend using the handheld attachment after cleaning the spot to suck up more of the liquid in the carpet(the spot will dry quicker). I also don't put the cleaner in the machine, only water, because I use "Nature's Miracle"(enzyme cleaner for pet stains), on the carpet first.
This is a great way to clean up spots in between a regular full carpet cleaning. It is lightweight, and very user friendly.
Finally, a cleaning product that works! 2008-07-25

Amazing little machine! Totally worth the price! 2008-07-25
Hands down, this is probably one of the best small appliances I've ever purchased. We have a full-size steam cleaner but it's big and bulky and a pain to pull out for one little stain here or there. Plus it's hard on my back. But this little wonder called the Spot Bot is absolutely perfect for our needs.
It's light enough for me to pack around the house and it does an admirable job cleaning up. My only complaint about it is that when it's left to its own devices, it doesn't extract enough of the water out of the carpet, but it's no big deal to just whip out the hose and little wand attachment and basically squeegee the rest out. Dries in a flash that way and it gets out the circular scrub spot!
We just moved into a new home with nearly white carpet and with 4 stressed-out cats, we've had our share of "Butt Scootin' Boogie" spots and hairball messes and the like. Even a couple of pee spots. But the Spot Bot got right to work and the floors look perfect! I would heartily recommend putting the cleaner mix in a spray bottle and putting that directly on the spot and then just use clean water in the tank. That way you don't get any of the residue left over that can attract more dirt. Plus, you use a lot less of the cleaner too.
If you have pets and carpet, you NEED this tool! It's been a lifesaver in our home so far! We've only had it for 4 days and I've used it on probably 25 spots already. Great stuff! Quick and easy.
Automated Spot Treatment 2008-07-23
I am generally opposed to single use appliances. (Bread maker what? I'm the bread maker!) This machine has changed my mind. It does one thing and it does it fabulously. I have a 12 year old Siamese cat that has always had a sensitive stomach. The special reduced ingredient diet he's on made a real difference, but I still found myself on my hands and knees scrubbing vomit out of the carpet on a regular basis. Some of these stains I could not get out completely.
Enter the SpotBot. OMG, this thing rules. I unpacked it about an hour ago and it has already removed several stains that have been embarrassing me for months. I did this while getting dressed this morning and with almost no effort on my part. It really only requires filling the tank, setting it on the stain, and pushing a button. The stains appear to be completely gone.
This is the first review I have written on Amazon, but I am so pleased with this device I just had to share. If you have a vomiting cat or not-quite-housebroken puppy you really need the SpotBot.
Three dogs and a Bisse;; SpotBot 
2008-07-13
When you have three dogs you really need a little help around the house and the Bissell SpotBot is a Godsend. Since I purchased it I can't tell you how many times I've already used it.
Now it's not like my dogs pee all over the house or anything like that but they're dogs and they're messy and we have pale grey carpeting. One of my dogs pukes a lot and it's bile colored and hard to get up but the BotSpot does a great job. Sometimes I have to run the machine twice over a spot to get it all up but that's okay...at least I'm not on my hands and knees scrubbing it out of the carpet.
You may wonder why I only gave the SpotBot 4 stars if I like it so much, and I really do like it--- well, I'll tell you -- the BotSpot leaves the carpet really, really wet and it sometimes takes more than an entire day to dry. That is my one and only complaint.
Do I recommend the Bissell SpotBot -- hell yeah I do. It's fantastic and so easy a monkey could use it. Buy this product!!!
I love the SpotBot! 2008-07-07
I've had the SpotBot for almost two months and it's already well paid for itself. Cleaning up after my puppy is just a button push away. I highly recommend this for anyone who is trying to house-break a pet.
