Why should I use a carpet cleaner?
Carpet cleaners provide a deep wash and thorough clean by spraying carpet with a water-and-formula solution before scrubbing, loosening and removing embedded dirt from the carpet fibers, leaving you with fresh and clean carpets.
Will this clean up pet urine stains and/or pet vomit stains?
Yes. You will see the best cleaning results by pretreating the area with a BISSELL pretreat formula and using a BISSELL PRO formula (model 78H6B or model 1990) in the Big Green.
Why should I buy a BISSELL deep cleaning machine?
No company is more experienced in the floor care category. BISSELL carpet cleaners are recognized as the high-quality standard in the industry with ease of use, performance and durability engineered into each machine, every step of the way.

I found this machine to actually be more quiet than others I have used, which is not to say it isn't loud, because it is. But compared to other machines, even my husband commented that it was not as loud as the last one we owned. It cleans way, way better than other models I have tried and I didn't spend half my time running to the sink to empty and refill the tanks. I was blown away by the amount of water/solution that was sucked out of the carpet. Most other machines, even the professionals, leave the carpet so wet. Last time I had my Berber carpets cleaned it took 4 days to dry! With this machine it was mostly dried in 3 hours. I did have one spot that took till the next morning, but it was the area I went over several times. It was easy to operate and cleans on both forward and backward stroke.
I also used this on my sofa, chairs, and an area rug with similar results. The hose is long enough to clean up the stairs, and the electric cord is long enough to not have to move it, at least in my house, very often.
The Cons- It is heavy, which I guess is why it works so well but if you have stairs, you will probably have to carry it up in pieces like I did (machine, tanks separately).
It did drip a little when I was carrying it to be emptied, which I hate, but every other machine I have owned has done the same...........Grrrrrrr!
I don't like the water flow indicator. This little disk spins on the tank to show you the water flow. If you aren't paying attention (I get into" the zone" when I clean and did this several times), you will be moving the machine around but no water/solution is being released.
The way the tanks fit together make it a little difficult to tell when they are locked together. I was releasing solution into the carpet and nothing was coming back up. Had to turn the machine off, take the tank off and put it back on and fiddle with it to Lock it down.
All of that said, I will and already have recommended this machine very very highly. It's really all about the clean!!
The cons I listed are all small things that are more bothersome than real problems. I am please with my purchase
and love that my carpet looks almost new again. Good for another 26 years??
Okay it's recommended for this machine use by bissell and myself for good reason. Buy the Bissel Stain Pretreat in the spray bottle before you begin. I also bought the oxy boost by Bissell that is safe for all shampooers says on the bottle. Make sure to only use Bissell products in this machine. Vacuum the carpet with a clean vacuum make sure the filters are clean and take your time vacuuming.
We shampooed our living room with the provided Bissell professional deep cleaning 2x ultra solution. I used a Bissell pet and spot treatment on the areas that were high traffic. After the shampooing I was super bummed. It didn't impress me at all. I thought our carpet is either ruined or this machine isn't good. And I was in the 1 star rated peoples experience category.
So I called bissell and wasn't a fan of the man's statements or advice he said the pet and spot treatment is the same as the pretreat and to use it. Also said I need to shampoo the carpet a minimum of 3 times letting it nearly dry or completely dry between shampooing which I agree with that part because it's been a few years since shampooing. (steam cleaning by a professional) by the way steam cleaning isn't deep cleaning. I said the pet and spot cleaner is the same thing? He said it was. I said so bissell is bottling the same thing labeling it different to scam people to buy more products. Then he changed his wording and said it's a different formulation but just use what you have. Anyways I had written bissell also but hadn't heard back yet so I used my gut and went and got the pretreat before saying this machine wasn't good. I also got the oxy boost. I sprayed the pretreat over the whole carpet lightly and heavier on the high traffic area and shampooed for the 2nd time. At that point I felt the carpet was cleaner than with the professional steam cleaning. However I shampooed a 3rd and final time and it feels and looks amazing. We are very pleased and it smells great! This cleaned spots that the professional couldn't budge. We stopped at three cleanings.
So when doing the dining room I have only done it one time and that's with the pretreat the deep cleaning solution and the oxy boost. We had an area we never realized was as bad as it was until the furniture was removed and I'm grossed by this room. It's a pass through we have used it to sit in maybe 5 times in 4 years. Literally it's not used. This room was worse than our living room which we always use. My photo is from only 1 cleaning with this solution. This proves that the products used was the answer. I am still shampooing it 2 more times before I'm done. If we are removing all the furniture then we are going to make sure we do it good.
The machine goes together well and is heavy but easy to use. I'm a weak person and it gives me a little workout. I'm sweating by the time I complete a room but it is a professional style machine. It needs to be heavy to do heavy work. My husband said it isn't heavy to him but he's stronger than me. He said feels like pushing a vacuum to him. Haha!
Is it worth the money? In my opinion as of now yes as long as it holds up longevity wise. If our house was empty the cleaning would be done within a day or 2 but with furniture needing moved from room to room and energy wise this is going to take a few more days for the whole house. So with 3 days that's $90 plus tax worth if rented. Plus after all the gross stuff this picks up in a home that I know isn't a filthy home. I don't want other people's germs brought into my home when cleaning the carpet. So far it's worth it and I know what filth it's sucked up.
We also cleaned our throw rugs and clearly can tell it did a great job. They look strange to us cause it cleaned them to look like new different rugs.
Our home is around 1400 sq ft I believe? We have 3 bedrooms, living room and dining room. I would say 3-4 bottles of 22oz pretreat would do our whole house and rugs with the high traffic areas that we have.
Tips
make sure to use the right products and treat the carpet as directed and take your time.
If you haven't shampooed in a few years shampoo let it dry repeat until the water improves averaging 1 time per year or year and a half of time not shampooed. 3 or 4 years 3 or 4 shampoos.
Use hot water don't boil or microwave
Pretreat (I rubbed the pretreat in with my hands on bad areas) let sit at least 5 minutes
We sprayed the water moving forward we sucked going back. We stopped and moved slower across bad areas and we sucked over the wet carpet 2 more times getting as much water out of we could per each shampooing. It also shortens dry time and gives a better clean in my opinion.
Let dry at least 2-3 hours with fans on them before repeating
We washed each part of the machine very well each day after use. Be sure to clean around the brushed area of gunk from the carpet that collects there that will surprise you how much collects.
Let completely dry before putting furniture on the carpets. Wood stain can run and metal can rust on carpet.
Be patient. It's a huge job and if you don't do it often you need to give it fair time to take care of the job.
Remember carpet wears just like clothes do. They may be clean but may not look new that isn't the machines fault.
After shampooing and carpet is dry use your vacuum and go back over it all to lift any pieces that the deep cleaner lifts and leaves behind.
Sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor and the super soft fluffy clean carpet.
The photo with the bay window lamp and fan is before and after 3 shampooing
The water was 2nd shampooing
The photo collage without the fan or lamp is the dining room before and after only 1 treatment 2 more is being done before stopping.

I don't want other people's germs brought into my home when cleaning the carpet. So far it's worth it and I know what filth it's sucked up.
We also cleaned our throw rugs and clearly can tell it did a great job. They look strange to us cause it cleaned them to look like new different rugs.
Our home is around 1400 sq ft I believe? We have 3 bedrooms, living room and dining room. I would say 3-4 bottles of 22oz pretreat would do our whole house and rugs with the high traffic areas that we have.
Tips
make sure to use the right products and treat the carpet as directed and take your time.
If you haven't shampooed in a few years shampoo let it dry repeat until the water improves averaging 1 time per year or year and a half of time not shampooed. 3 or 4 years 3 or 4 shampoos.
Use hot water don't boil or microwave
Pretreat (I rubbed the pretreat in with my hands on bad areas) let sit at least 5 minutes
We sprayed the water moving forward we sucked going back. We stopped and moved slower across bad areas and we sucked over the wet carpet 2 more times getting as much water out of we could per each shampooing. It also shortens dry time and gives a better clean in my opinion.
Let dry at least 2-3 hours with fans on them before repeating
We washed each part of the machine very well each day after use. Be sure to clean around the brushed area of gunk from the carpet that collects there that will surprise you how much collects.
Let completely dry before putting furniture on the carpets. Wood stain can run and metal can rust on carpet.
Be patient. It's a huge job and if you don't do it often you need to give it fair time to take care of the job.
Remember carpet wears just like clothes do. They may be clean but may not look new that isn't the machines fault.
After shampooing and carpet is dry use your vacuum and go back over it all to lift any pieces that the deep cleaner lifts and leaves behind.
Sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor and the super soft fluffy clean carpet.

**Pros**
* **Truly deep cleans:** The combination of the rotating brush and powerful suction pulls up dirt you didn't even know was there. It outperforms most rental carpet cleaners I've used in the past.
* **Large tanks:** You won't be running to the sink constantly to refill – you can clean large areas in one go.
* **Long hose and attachments:** Perfect for upholstery, stairs, and those hard-to-reach spots.
* **Built to last:** It feels sturdy, and it's easy to maintain.
**Cons**
* **Price:** It's an investment, but if you use it frequently, it eliminates the need for rentals.
* **Weight:** It's definitely on the heavier side, so it can be a bit of a workout.
**Who is this for?**
* Homeowners who want professional-level cleaning results without hiring someone.
* Those with heavily soiled carpets, pets, or kids.
* People who want a long-lasting, high-quality carpet cleaner.
**Final Verdict:**
If you're tired of mediocre carpet cleaning results, the Bissell Big Green is worth the investment. It's powerful, efficient, and leaves your carpets looking and smelling fresh. While not the lightest machine, the results make the extra effort worthwhile!
