Review of Bissell Big Green Complete Home-Cleaning System, 7700

Bissell Big Green Complete Home-Cleaning System, 7700
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was really excited about this because of the multi-function use. At the same time, I was skeptical. Our little dog likes to pee in small places on the carpet, so we needed good carpet cleaner that would deep clean these areas.

The carpet cleaner works very well. Both the large cleaner extension and the handheld spray and suction the water, which most others do not do. It was a decision between this and the Hoover Agility. The Agility does not seem to have a sprayer on the extension hose.

When it comes to the vacuum, it's not that great. The suction is only good enough for area rugs. The carpet extension has a air powered brush that stops working on normal carpet and it only cleans the top surface debris.

So, if you want something for hardwood and deep carpet cleaning this is great. Just don't try to replace a regular vacuum cleaning with this.

Product Description:
For a thoroughly clean home without all the space-consuming equipment, this thoughtfully designed cleaner functions as three units in one. It vacuums carpets, floors, and hard-to-reach areas; deep cleans carpets and upholstery; and washes sealed hard-floor surfaces. Not bad for a unit that takes up just over 2 square feet of floor space. The versatile cleaner provides easy-to-use push-button controls, bagless technology, and a 1-2/7-gallon tank capacity. When in deep-cleaning mode, its built-in heater quickly heats hot tap water up to 25 degrees hotter for enhanced results. On-board vacuum tools include a multi-surface floor tool, an air-powered floor TurboBrush, a 5-inch brush, a crevice tool, and a dust brush, as well as a carpet deep-cleaning tool, a drain cleaner, a 4-inch upholstery tool, and a hard-floor tool. The hard-floor tool uses a washable micro-fiber pad that helps lift and remove dirt from tile, vinyl, laminates, and sealed hardwood surfaces.
Even more, the home-cleaning system features three-stage filtration. Its water filtration captures large debris and dust, the washable foam filter captures fine particles, and the HEPA media filter cleans and filters the air. Other highlights include a quick-release cord wrap, a quick-release hose door, an 8-foot upholstery hose, and an 18-foot power cord, along with Microban antimicrobial protection, which fights the growth of odor causing bacteria, mold, and mildew in the machine, keeping it cleaner and fresher between uses. Additional items include a 16-ounce bottle of Fiber Cleansing Formula, an 8-ounce bottle of Hard Floor Solutions, a mesh bag, and two hard-floor micro-fiber pads. The home-cleaning system measures 13 by 24 by 54-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Review of Bissell 14005 Little Green Compact Carpet Cleaner

Bissell 14005 Little Green Compact Carpet Cleaner

(More customer reviews)
Bissell 14005 Little Green verses Hoover F5411 Steamvac Jr.

I've used both of these mini shampooers and was not entirely satisfied with either, but I preferred the Bissell's Little Green over Hoover's Steamvac Jr. and here's why:

I first had the Little Green for about five years.It was a great little vac with only minor problems.The fill and empty containers are removable from the unit for convenient filling and emptying.There is a cord winder built onto the unit, the hose wraps conveniently around the unit and locks into place, and the shape and size are convenient for most applications including stairs and storage.

The problems I had with the Little Green:
- It would occasionally leak a bit.The water seemed to be coming from where the hose connects to the base.It was a small drip leak that was easily solved by emptying the clean water tank after each use.We used ours so frequently that I sometimes left clean water in the tank during storage to avoid wasting cleaning solution.
- My biggest problem with the Little Green was the inability to completely clean the dirty water tank.I had four cats when I first bought the Little Green and eventually had four kids.The Little Green made it through a number of illnesses with us above and beyond pet accidents.The dirty water tank became filthy and unsanitary and was not designed to be dismantled for thorough cleaning.Eventually, the smell became too great and I had to dispose of the tank.I decided it was time to try a new spot shampooer - one that had a cleanable tank.

That's when I decided to try the Hoover Steamvac Jr.Both the Little Green and the Hoover spray and suck reasonably well for a small machine.As far as actual cleaning quality, the two are comparable.However, I found the Hoover to be bulky and a pain and its only redeeming quality, in my opinion, was that I am able to thoroughly clean the dirty water tank.

The problems I had with the Hoover F5411 Steamvac Jr.:
- The tanks are the base of the unit and are not removable.In order to fill the clean water tank, you have to either maneuver the entire unit under the faucet and aim at a one inch hole in the portion of the unit that houses the motor, or you have to dismantle the machine and still maneuver the largest part of it under your faucet or use a bucket.
- The tanks are a single bucket-style unit separated by a divider.They are not individual parts.When you dump the dirty water, if you have the unit fully assembled, the clean water will slosh around.If you dismantle the machine to empty it, you will also be emptying the clean water tank.
- The top portion that houses the motor also has a filter that sits down in the dirty water tank, so if you dismantle the machine to fill or empty it, you are forced to place the motor housing with hose and cord in a tub or sink or get your floor dirty and wet.
- The machine is round.It doesn't fit well on stairs nor is it a convenient shape to store.
- There is no cord storage on this unit and no convenient way to store the cord or keep it out of your way when you are filling, emptying, or storing.You can wrap it around the base of the handle, but it usually does not stay in place if you empty the tank and tends to get in the way of using the handle to carry the machine.
- The Steamvac Jr. does have a spot to store the hose, but I find it an inconvenient and cumbersome position.

I'm currently saving my pennies to buy another Little Green.The little Hoover just makes me more angry than satisfied and I've taken to simply letting stains set in instead of hassle with the obnoxious machine.

I would recommend avoiding the Proheat Little Green.It seems the parts are not designed to work well with the heat and tend to break down.Hot tap water in the standard Little Green works well and this is coming from a germaphobe whose hands are raw from overwashing.If it's clean enough for me, it's probably more than clean enough for you.If you're looking for a spot shampooer, the Little Green is your best bet.

Review of Earth Friendly Products Carpet Shampoo, Concentrated with Bergamot & Sage, 40 Ounces (Pack of 8)

I love this product. Having children that crawl and play on the floor it's nice to feel that you are not exposing them to abrasive cleaners with bad chemicals.
I have not noticed any difference in performance between this and the hoover carpet shampoos.Before starting up the steam cleaner, I do recommend mixing a stronger solution in a glass and apply it as a spot treatment with a dish washing brush. Makes the process faster and easier.

Review of Bissell Little Green Multi-Purpose Compact Earth-Friendly Deep Cleaner, 1400-7

Bissell Little Green Multi-Purpose Compact Earth-Friendly Deep Cleaner, 1400-7
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My husband, albiet not from here, picked up this little gem after calling him and relaying that our son dumped the entire contents of a chocolate syrup bottle on his bedroom carpet. Home he came with this bissell. Only one they had at the store.

Assembly in two seconds, I kid you not. Didn't even need to look at the instructions. put in the cleaning solution, filled reservoir with water, set it down, plugged it in. Now, mind you, it took me about ten minutes, with a few minutes between each go, this syrup was well and good in the carpet, but I am deeply impressed. Throughly impressed. It's very light, even filled, it's compact, fits real nicely into our cleaning closet, and super easy to use. For the price we paid, it's paid for itself halfway with just the one room, compared to getting our carpets steam cleaned every few months. I would happily buy again.

Product Description:
Equipped with a 2-3/4 amp motor and safe to use on virtually all carpets, this compact-size Little Green multipurpose deep cleaner can handle both small and large clean-ups, even stubborn spots and stains, as effectively as a full-size machine. It combines a cleaning spray with powerful suction to lift spills before they set in--much better than store-bought chemical cleaners, which get sprayed on or rubbed in, pushing stains deeper into carpet or upholstery fibers. The deep-cleaning machine provides a 4-inch cleaning path, a flexible vacuum hose, and a 15-foot power cord for accessing hard-to-reach areas. In addition, it uses earth-friendly liquid cleaning formulas that do not contain any heavy metals, optical brighteners, phosphates, or dyes. Try the Bissell Pet Odor and Soil Removal solution for getting rid of tough odors, tracked-in dirt, dander, and other soils from pets. Designed to keep maintenance to a minimum, the deep cleaner can be stored ready-to-use and requires nothing more than simply rinsing out the dirty-water tank after each use. A tough-stain brush attachment comes included.
Suitably named Little Green, the earth-friendly deep cleaner has been engineered with sustainable features to reduce waste and help protect the environment. The unit's redesign offers a 95-percent reduction in PVC. It includes a PVC-free hose, PVC-free solution and collection tanks (made of recyclable polypropylene), as well as parts constructed from 100-percent post-consumer recycled plastic. Even its carton and inner packaging are made from a minimum of 75-percent recycled material--all Styrofoam and PVC inserts have been eliminated. Bissell has made a strong commitment to a healthy environment, and its innovative closed-loop manufacturing process allows new vacuums and deep-cleaning machines to be manufactured using post-consumer recycled content. The Little Green deep-cleaning machine measures 9-1/10 by 18-4/5 by 13-1/4 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

The Little Green FAQ Is the Little Green as effective at cleaning as a full size machine?
Yes. Also, the Little Green has an important advantage. Little Green's long vacuum and power cord let you clean those hard-to-reach spots and spills on stairs and upholstery in your home as well as your auto or RV interiors.
Is the Little Green safe for all carpet and upholstery types?

What are the advantages of using the Little Green versus store bought chemical cleaners?
Unlike store bought chemical cleaners which are simply sprayed on a stain or rubbed in with a cloth--pushing the stain deeper into carpet and upholstery fibers--Little Green, with its powerful suction, lifts-up spills before they set-in.
What maintenance is required for the Little Green?
Minimal. The Little Green can be stored ready-to-use to get spots and spills when they happen. However, we recommend rinsing out the dirty water tank after each use.
Does the Little Green work effectively at removing pet stains and odors?
Using Bissell Pet Odor and Soil Removal solution, with its patented odor eliminator, the Little Green will remove tough odors tracked in dirt, dander, and other soils from pets.

This thorough, effective, and convenient deep cleaner for tasks large and small has:
  • Strong spray and suction that clean and help dry in one step
  • A long power cord and compact design that make cleaning hard-to-reach areas easy
  • PVC free tanks and hose and a carton that contains a minimum of 75% recycled material

Greener Processes
Closed Loop Manufacturing
Bissell has implemented an innovative closed loop manufacturing process that allows new vacuums and deep cleaning machines to be manufactured using post consumer recycled content. Below is a graphic of this process.

Chemical Blow Molding
Bissell has been practicing recycling in its blowmolded bottle operations for over 40 years. We make our bottles from three plastic types: new resin, reused resin from the waste trimmed off the bottles, and post consumer recycled resin, which makes up 30 percent of the materials.
In 2007, using 30 percent post consumer recycled content in our formula bottles enabled us to save 1 million pounds of high-density polyethylene. This is up dramatically from 176,000 pounds in 2005 and equates to a 470 percent increase in recycled content used. That's a lot of old milk jugs!
