Bissell SpotClean ProHeat Portable Spot and Stain Carpet Cleaner, 2694, Blue

I have a shaggy, cream-colored rug in my bedroom. I also have a cat, a dog, and a 3-month-old puppy. Poor decisions were made here. I bought this spot cleaner before we brought the puppy home, and after a hiccup with shipping, it finally came last week. I took some time this afternoon to test it out, and wish I'd bought it years ago. Some more specific information: -I used the Bissell 2x Pet Stain and Odor formula with the deep stain tool. It worked great for stains, although I'll have to wait for the carpet to finish drying to speak to the odor removal. -It took me about 45 minutes to clean a low-pile 8x10 rug (the whole thing, furniture removed) with this, and realized I'd forgotten how fluffy it was to walk on when it was new. The suction was good enough that the rug is drying fairly quickly, but could be a little better. I had to do several passes to get as much water out as I did. -It took another 30 minutes to clean the parts of the shaggy 9x12 that are not covered by a king-size bed. It also looks brand new, which is incredible for such a light rug. Since it's such a long pile, I didn't manage to get as much water out as the first, but sufficient that I'm not worried about it getting musty. -The rugs are only a year old, and are vacuumed twice a week. I also vacuumed them twice each before using the carpet cleaner. The amount of grunge and extra dog hair that came out of them anyway was astounding. I'll definitely be doing this more than once a year from here on out, and it's easy enough to use that I don't see that being much of a problem. -It got all of the puppy stains out. All of them. I'm amazed. I've used a couple different spot cleaners over the years to take care of pet stains, and this is miles better than anything I've tried. 10/10 would pay extra $$ for the heating feature again. -The hose cleaning tool is brilliant. Also the hose attachments come apart very easily to clean inside. Anything that I can take apart this easily to unclog dog hair gets extra points from me. I've only had it a few days, so I can't answer to the durability, but so far I'm very satisfied with this purchase.

First off, you can actually clean all the parts to this. Amazing! There's a tool that collects really icky messes (like, poop) without it traveling through the whole hose. Genius. And another tool that allows you just flush the hose with clean water. Love it. Using a black light I discovered my dogs have been tinkling on my rug. I easily cleaned the affected part of the rug, and it pulled up a lot of dirt. I was surprised as it's a low traffic area, but yay! Went back over the rug with the black light and found a couple spots I missed. Rug was left lightly damp, was dry by the next morning. So easy to clean. Compact enough to just store in the closet. Not a hassle to pull out and use for a mess quickly. Having two dogs (one who gets the runs every so often and one with some incontinence) this will be so helpful. Very happy with this purchase.

The Bissell SpotClean ProHeat 2694 has been an absolute lifesaver for tackling stubborn stains and spills on carpets and upholstery. Its compact design makes it easy to maneuver, while the Heatwave Technology ensures that water remains at an optimal temperature for effective stain removal. The included 3-inch Tough Stain Tool and 3-in-1 Stair Tool are perfect for reaching tight spots and cleaning stairs with ease. Whether it's pet accidents, coffee spills, or everyday messes, this cleaner delivers impressive results every time

I have two dogs and there is always a little accident somewhere. I purchase lots of products to clean up after pets because I can’t stand pet odor, specifically urine in my home. I love this product. It’s easy to use, lightweight, easy to store and has about the best cleaning power and suction as you can expect from a small home appliance for this purpose. I used it in a couple of tough stains on the carpet and found it very impressive with a just one application to the stain (puppy threw up awful bile “bright neon yellow” stain on light gray carpet. ). I did pretreat the stain but it was dry when I found it, so assume pre treating is wise but it did wok on stain that had been there at least a day or two. I also used it where my dog had an Number 1 accident in bed the seeped into my expensive mattress. I was devastated as my dog never has done that before and I had only just removed our regular mattress pad for regular cleaning! I used this on my mattress and admittedly went over and over the stain several Times to be sure I got everything I could. I found it to have worked very well! I just made sure I always allowed the suction to continue until I could see very little water sucking back up. It was crazy how dark the dirty water tank was! Especially since I keep a very clean bed and always have a mattress pad on. I now know that mattresses can be pretty grimy no matter how clean you are. I will use this for the same purpose and for other stains around the house. I have other Bissell products like this but in a small upright I use for cleaning carpet traffic areas and pet stains. I find these products to be great long lasting appliances as long as you make SURE to clean them well after each use. Never leave dirty water or left over solution inside the machine when storing or eventually your gaskets and filter hoses etc will break down. So clean after use as directed and you will have it forever. Also, I think they are quite economically priced for the good quality they deliver. The solutions work pretty well also but I always suggest pretreating difficult stains for best results. I also suggest really using the suction to get up as much as you can as leaving to much of the solution behind will probably bring on more staining later and take a longer time than necessary to dry. Love my Bissell products and I am totally uncompensated, just a regular customer with strong positive opinion.

I decided to deep clean the seats of a recent used car purchase (as everyone should do occasionally); the car had a noticeable smell of body odor whenever it sat in the sun. I originally rented a RugDoctor detailer for a day, and did my best to clean the seats and carpet. It seemed to do a good job at the time, but it was a bit clunky to use, and within a few days (after the scented cleaning product wore away), the car was once again a bit pungent whenever I'd initially get in. So, I decided I would buy one for myself and try again. This seemed to fit the bill wonderfully, costing the same as three or four rentals of the RugDoctor variant. I didn't expect to work as well as the rental, but the results were pretty incredible. It is much more portable, with a smaller cleaning head, so I could more easily maneuver around the car with it. But where it shined was in the cleaning itself; when I used the RugDoctor, I definitely pulled some disgusting fluid from the seats, but not the worst I'd ever seen. Only a few weeks later, using this unit, I was shocked at how much nasty water I sucked out from the passenger seat. I pushed about 32 ounces of cleaning product solution (from RugDoctor brand concentrate, so I can't speak for the included solution) through that one seat, and the dirty water I got back looked, for lack of a more eloquent way to say it, like the most awful concentration of digestive trouble you could imagine coming out of you. And that is after having already used the RugDoctor on that same seat, only weeks prior! If I had settled for the cleaning job the RugDoctor got me, I would have never known of the swamp hiding within my passenger seat. I really wasn't expecting this product to outperform such a household name, but it absolutely blew me away. A fantastic detailer, and the heating feature is a nice touch.

I love this little spot cleaner. It has been so great to have around to deal with all kinds of spills, spots and stains. A few notes to keep in mind: - This is not a magic wand. If you have a 10 year old stain you want to get out, this machine will certainly help, but there are limits. In my opinion, this machine is intended to be used on fresh stains. Think: coffee I just spilled on the couch, dog just peed on the floor, wine glass knocked over, etc. I've used it for this kind of application multiple times over the last 2 months and have loved it. All that being said, I have used it on set in stains. I had a 3 year old coffee stain that I got out of a light grey carpet with this machine. As well as a mystery stain on a chair that was given to me. - I would NOT recommend adding the stain solution/formula to the clean tank. I found that as I was using it, it was better to apply the stain treatment directly to the stain with a spray bottle, then use the clean tank to just be a rinse. - I did not like either of the stain solutions it came with. They don't smell great, and smelled even worse when I was done using the machine. - if you are expecting it to be bone dry, this is not the machine for you. Frankly, I'm not sure that even professional machines leave the carpet dry. The carpet is still damp when I am done. But much less so than when I would clean up using a spray bottle and towel. - The "pro heat" is dumb. The machine does not heat the water. It seems like to me that they used the fact that the motor gets warm to call it a "heating" feature. This doesn't change the fact that I love the machine. It is still fantastic at getting fresh stains out. I like that it is pretty easy to maintain and clean. The scrubber/sprayer heads come apart so you can easily clean them. The dirty compartment has a large hole in the bottom do you could wash it. The clean compartment has a large enough hole that you can leave it open and it will dry out in-between uses. And it comes with a hose attachment for cleaning the house.

Now that I've had it a while, like my other Bissel upright carpet cleaner, the hose broke! I'll never buy another Bissel anything. 3rd strike with my vacuum

The Bissell Spot Clean is a very convenient portable spot cleaner/remover for dog stains on our carpets. After cleaning, it does take a little time for the cleaned spot to air dry, as the vaccum does remove the majority of the water, but still feels damp. After almost two years of use, the hose connection started to leak. I've read that other owners have experienced the same issue. Was able to patch the leak with silicone caulk and rubber tape. Otherwise, the all-in one makes cleaning "accidents" an easier chore. Rated 3-stars
