Review: Cleans brilliantly, easy assembly and clean up. - I bought this because we have ceramic floor (looks like wooden planking) throughout our ground floor; and we have 2 small puppies who in the winter have been traipsing their tiny but muddy feet through the house each time they go outside (they aren’t big on using the doormat). Got fed up with mopping and scrubbing, so thought would give this a try as we already had a Bissell carpet cleaner. Short review: works really well. Uses a relatively small quantity of water (about 2.5 litres) to do the entire ground floor (4 rooms, long corridor and 3 area rugs), which necessitates emptying the ‘dirty’ water container about 4 times in total. It scrubs the floor very effectively, and picks up everything, including the smallest of dog hairs. The floor dries very quickly. The cable is long enough to do large room without relocating, but not so long that it becomes a pain. The Bissell Pet cleaning formula removes almost all dried in marks, and smells very fresh - the consumption rate is moderate (about 10 to 1 concentration I think). The only shortcoming (previously mentioned by others) is that it leaves a small strip unscrubbed around the edges; i cure this by using a dish brush to scrub there and then use the machine to clean up the arisings. The water it brings off the floor is satisfyingly filthy, but notably the scrubbing head remains pretty clean throughout due to the design. The dirty container is not huge, but that actually makes it easier to handle. The solid waste catcher works well, and reduces the amount of solids you would pour down the drain very considerably. The airway cleaning stand works well to ensure that the machine is left clean, and other cleanup simply involves rinsing out the scrubber head and the plastic water container and filter; these have to then be dried for 24hrs. Spares are available on various auction sites (and desertcart…). The item is pretty light even when full, and is very manoueverable, the head is just narrow enough to fit between the legs of dining chairs without moving them. The area rug mode works pretty well (not as well as a proper carpet cleaner, i think because the scrubber head is quite soft, but does a reasonable job - you can buy an aftermarket head specifically for rugs, though I haven’t tried it). Storage space is the footprint of the machine (its probably too heavy to hang up). You could use it for spot clean ups (it does that well), though that isn’t really what it is designed for. Reliability good so far - I’ve used it a fair few times. All in all - a good machine that works well at its specific task and is relatively easy to set up and clean up afterwards. Update @18 months use. Still works brilliantly. Review: Makes cleaning a whole lot less miserable 😁 - Makes cleaning my concrete floor a pleasure! Takes the hard work out of a difficult job. We live on a farm, have 4 cats and two dogs plus a large open plan living kitchen diner - a cleaning nightmare! Washing the floor with a mop an absolute no go - just moves the dirt around and streaks horribly! I agonised over buying a floor cleaner for ages - such mixed reviews - but I bit the bullet and am glad I did. This cleaner actually lifts the dirt and cleans, and my floor actually shines when it’s done. Plus the special ‘pet’ liquid doesn’t leave that temporary shine that immediately goes cloudy and shows every footprint! My floor is clean, naturally shiny as polished concrete should be and seems to stay clean for longer. Oh and it smells lovely! I Don’t know how I managed so long without it. Note of caution - it is not a floor polisher, and it does leave a 2 inch gap around edges which may bother some. However, it does clean properly with minimal streaking and a natural shine. It’s polished enough for me and I can live with the edges that don’t get dirty anyway. Also, while it does vacuum as well, I always properly vacuum first with my trusty Henry, otherwise I’d be dealing with ‘orrible mess (pet hair) when emptying. On that note, it’s easy to clean and store. Definitely my favourite purchase this year (and I hate cleaning lol 😂) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
