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

I wish I could share a before and after picture but I don’t think Amazon would allow me to post a picture of the poopy accident my dog had this morning. Omg. It was everywhere! My dog turns in circles when he’s going #2 so seriously, it was everywhere. This was my first time using my Bissell cleaner and I’m in love! When I saw what he left me this morning, I was tempted to just tear out the carpet (seriously) but after picking up what I could, I got to work with the carpet cleaner machine and you would never know anything happened at all!!! Taking it apart to clean was a bit nasty and troublesome but still definitely worth it.

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.

I use this on a couple 9x12 synthetic rugs and smaller rugs. And it is good for that. If you plan on using this on a large fully carpeted area, think again. You need to be looking at something in the price range of $500. Having said that, after using this, I realized that carpets/rugs are just large dust rags that do nothing but absorb dust...no matter how much you vacuum. The dark colored water that results from cleaning the carpet is really just super dusty water. I have no carpeting in my house. Its all hard laminate flooring with large rugs that we replace every 2-4 years (if I can get one year for every $100 I spend on the rug, Ive won). And I run a robot vacuum every other day on a schedule. This setup is so much better than carpeting and this machine taught me this. There is no reason in the world you want to keep carpeting or rugs more than 4 years, tops. After that, just get rid of it. Its entirely too dusty and dirty. And, obviously, changing carpeting every 4 years seems like it would be too costly/hassle-some. But running a robot vacuum on a hard floor, plus a swiffer wetjet mopping, is so much cleaner than any carpet. This machine taught me that carpets are just...naaaasty. I use this machine once a month on my large rugs and it keep the rugs nice and fresh. If you dont know when the last time your rug was cleaned, I strongly recommend you do a first cleaning with nothing but plain water. Also, use the hottest water youre allowed to..which is 140F water. Then go back and redo it with the cleaning solution. You might even consider doing plain water twice and then using the cleaning solution for a third run. If you clean the rug monthly, there is no need to do a double or triple wash each time. But any longer than monthly, and you need to a double wash each time. I promise. Having used this several times for a few months, Ive learned rugs (and carpet) take on dust like I did not know before getting this. And yes I do vacuum with an upright and a robot vacuum regularly. The biggest problem with this unit is that the clean- and dirty-water reservoirs are super small. You end up filling/emptying very often which makes the process take a lot longer. The counterargument is that this allows the clean water to stay hot. I leave a pot of water on the stove, which I refill when I refill the clean water reservoir. I mix the clean stove water with hot tap water to a temp of 140F. I use a cooking thermometer to check the temp. Then I pour into the reservoir and then add cleaning solution. The hot water honestly does make a big difference. I also run a dehumidifier and ceiling fan (on high) in the room with the rug when Im done. Also, you have to clean the machine itself after every use. Big hassle, but you have to do it. Since I have to take apart to clean it, I store the machine in the box it came in. You could leave it assembled in a closet. But since its easy to take apart and put back together, I just put it back in its box. I also like the Bissell brand of cleaning solutions that Ive used. Have a nice not-overpowering smell and they do leave behind a little protective coating.

I have been using Stanley Steamer to clean my bedroom carpets for 3 years. There was a one time dog urine in my master bedroom. The odor never came out. The price if Stanley Steamer just went up so i decided to purchase my own carpet cleaner. Im so glad i did not only did it leave my carpet looking like new but also removed the odor!!! I used the enzyme solution that came with the cleaner. I cleaned the entire bedroom and did not fill the dirty water tank. For my size rooms , 3 carpeted bedrooms, this is an awesome product! This is my second bissell product and bar none these are the best products i have owned. Customer Service is also outstanding when i had a question about my vacuum cleaner.

This has no bells or whistles and I didnt have high hopes when I opened the package and saw how small and flimsy it looked. But I was pleasantly surprised with the results! Ive only used it 1 time, so I dont know how long it will last, but it did a pretty good job getting all the dirt out of the 1 area rug I have. The cleaning solution that came with it worked great with no residue left behind!

Y’all I was shocked, shooketh, surprised at the power of this thing. Please don’t judge me, my carpets were absolutely disgusting. This carpet cleaner cut through 8 years of stains and pet potty accidents on the worlds best example of a landlord special. I seriously thought there was no hope for this carpet and it was honestly a huge deterrent from having guests. I also had an elderly little dog who had bladder troubles and would often miss the potty pads and go straight on the carpet. Bless his precious soul, he left a lot of foul smells. Foul smells and stains that this carpet cleaning cut right through. You guys I’m honestly shocked at how well this performed. The only thing I would make note of is spend the extra $60 and buy the deluxe version. It comes with the attachments for smaller spaces. The basic one I bought does not have that ability. Still great though!!

As a professional house cleaner I’ve used countless carpet cleaners and tools, I have a white patterned rug in my own home that has been worn down by two dogs and my son. This carpet cleaner worked wonders, it not only worked well but did it quickly and efficiently. The tank is large enough to get through enough surface area so your not having to make a million trips. It is easy to keep clean as well. Overall I’m extremely happy with it would recommend it to anyone.

This cleaner isveryeasy to useand does a thorough job! Also, Its easy to haul up and down stairways.

I purchased this machine 2 years ago and let me tell you something… this machine is a power house and cleans better than others I’ve used in the past. It easily removes stains from the carpet/rug almost immediately. Side note, I only used vinegar, fabric softener and pipping hot water for the solution and works wonders. Still truly happy with this purchase.

I was genuinely shocked to see this simple carpet cleaner work so well in these times where everything is convoluted and turned upside down due to corporate greed. Regardless it is easily worth the money.
