My First Deep Cleaner,
First, a small rant: I am always stunned when high-end products make it to sale with basic design flaws. When you take this “Bissell Lift-Off Deluxe Pet Upright Deep Cleaner” out of the box, it comes in two parts; the lower functioning unit and the upper handle. You have to screw on the handle, but for reasons I can’t understand Bissell thought it was a good idea to have the screws mount in behind the support handle. They forget the fundamental mechanics of a screwdriver–they don’t work so well around corners.
In order to assemble, you need to get down under the support handle and angle up your screwdriver from the bottom. And because the screw wells are so deep, you need a Phillips screwdriver with at least a six-inch shaft that is thin enough to fit under the support handle and into the deep wells.
All of my screwdrivers were either too thick or too short, so I ended up having to buy a special screwdriver just to put this together. Not a big deal if you already own one, but I am still astounded that Bissell thought that behind the support handle was a logical place to put screw mounts. Apparently, this is pretty standard with Bissell deep cleaners, but you have to wonder why.
So! Rant aside, once it is all together, what do you have? Something pretty darn nice.
This is the first carpet cleaner I have ever owned. In the past, I have always rented the clumsy Rug Doctor from the local grocery store, and then only when I was moving apartments so I could get my deposit back. But I am older now and have allergy issues, and so I am happy to make carpet cleaning more of a regular activity.
The Bissell is smaller and more compact than the rentals. It is more like a bulked-up vacuum cleaner, allowing for easy storage and maneuverability. When you are an apartment dweller like myself, that storage part is a necessity. This deep cleaner fits in our hall closet without too much difficulty. Bonus points right there. But “smaller and more compact” also means less water capacity, obviously. The tank doesn’t hold nearly the same amount of water as the rental cleaners. I live in a fairly large three-bedroom apartment (actually the bottom-half of a 100-year old house) and I could generally get half of one room out of the tank before I needed a refill. This wasn’t too much of a problem, but I could see it getting annoying if you have a large house.
The suction power and cleaning was fantastic. Even though I didn’t think my carpets were that dirty, one look at the tanks showed I was wrong. Cat and dog hair, dirt and grime, it all got washed out and sucked up into the Bissell. Its kind if disgusting to think we were living with all that dirt for as long as we did. The cleaner is self-heating, and we used the solution that came with the deep cleaner which worked fine. We had a few (more than a few) stains in the carpet that came right out, and I was most impressed with the entryway. We live in Seattle, and several years of wet and muddy boots have permanently changed the carpet color there. Now it is back and matches the rest of the house! Just like the Rug Doctor, it took a few passes to get everything perfectly clean, and then it took awhile to dry out the carpet completely, but all in all the Bissell did a great job.
And aside from the looking better, the carpets and the whole house smell better. This is the “Pet” version of the cleaner, which means it comes with a “Pet Stain Eraser Tool” and the 8 oz. Pet 2X chemical and the Pet Stain & Odor 22 oz. I saw some longtime pet stains and smells disappear, which I am very pleased about.
This Lift-Off attachment was surprisingly easy to use. You just push a button to disconnect the hand-held unit, and you are off cleaning sofas, chairs, and anything else that needs a deep cleaning. This part is surprisingly handy, including for heading outside of the house. We cleaned the carpets and mats in our car, which worked great and is the cleanest they have been for years.
So the verdict for this is; aside from the birthing pains of putting it together, this is a great machine. It does everything it promises, and I am amazed at how beautiful our old apartment looks and smells.
