    {Holiday Gift Guide} Bissell Little Green Deep Cleaner Review (& Giveaway Ends 11/26)

    By 1,071 Comments

    ABOUT:

    Bissell is a company that has been helping consumer’s keep their carpets clean since 1876.  First there was the Carpet Sweeper (first of its kind), then a multi-purpose formula and shampooer, next came practical and lightweight cleaners, finally came carpet deep cleaners (once thought to be exclusive to commercial providers.)  Bissell also acquired Woolite Carpet and Upholstery business which includes its renowned line of carpet cleaning products.  An interesting fact too is that Anna Melville (wife of Melville who invented the Carpet Sweeper) was America’s first female corporate CEO.

    Bissell’s product line now includes:  Carpet Deep Cleaners, Vacuums, Cleaning Formulas, Steam Cleaners, Sweepers, Mops & Brooms.

    MY THOUGHTS:

    Half of my house is carpeting and I struggle with stains daily!  I have carpeted stairs which even though we don’t really wear shoes in the house they get so dirty and my boy’s playroom is carpeted, which says it all!  I absolutely love my Bissell Little Green Machine cleaner.  It is small enough to store and carry around, but strong enough to really clean stains.  My parents have had one forever it seems and they swear by it for carpet stains.

    Features:

    • Eco-friendly – made with 50% recycled plastic
    • Spray, suction clean and dry in one step
    • Cleans hard-to-reach areas
    • Quickly cleans spots and stains

    I have used the Little Green machine on fresh stains, old stains, and just to maintain my stairs carpeting and it works great all the time.  I highly recommend the Little Green machine to anyone with carpeting, kids or no kids (or pets) we all spill and carpet does get dirty.  Using the machine is so simple – Just fill one side with water/Little Green Formula solution and plug it in!  The handle neatly wraps around as does the cord so you are ready to clean anytime.  Turn on the power and there is a button you push to spray the solution onto the stains, then you can let it sit if it needs to or start scrubbing with the brush, when you are ready just drag the brush over the stain and it will suck up the mess and deposit it into the other canister to be emptied later on.

    Carpet all clean!

    Overall, I really can’t think of anything I would change on the Little Green machine.  It is an excellent spot cleaner and small enough to store easily.  I keep mine ready to go in our front closet so I can clean up a stain within minutes!

    I also highly recommend checking out the Bissell website if you are unsure of what type of cleaner you need.  You can narrow down your search by Price, Cleaning Need, Soil Type, and Surface Type.  There are also some great How-to Videos, a Stain Removal Guide, and Cleaning 101s!

    BUY IT: You can buy the Bissell Little Green Machine for $79.99 directly through Bissell or look for it at your local retailer!

    WIN IT: (1) US winner will a Bissell Little Green Machine

      I just moved into a new house in Dec and the carpets are stained from the previous owners by who knows what. I just had a baby on September and I’m terrified to let her crawl on them…I had barely enough money for my kids Christmas…that would be mommy’s gift!!:)

      We have dark spots all over our carpet from hairballs and other pet “accidents.” I put it in quotes, because a hairball isn’t really an accident, because they can’t help if they yak up a hairball or even throw up their dinner for some reason.

      My stain would have to be a whole bottle of ketchup squired on the carpet while the kids were playing with squirt guns and one wanted to take it a step further and “draw blood”. Took me a long time and multiple tries to get the stain out.

      Our carpet downstairs is garbage, there are stains that I’m at a loss as to where they came from. However, upstairs my son got into a tube of vampire fake blood last year and there are still marks in the floor. After that I put this on my Amazon wish list–I’ve wanted the Little Green Machine for over a year!!

      Having pets can be a challenge for sure. Mostly they are well behaved but when they are not feeling well, its all hands on deck! The worst is when they get sick or poop in a place that is hidden and then it is discovered a day or WEEKS later. Under the couch, bed, etc…Yuck. So I have had to clean vomit from under the bed that is a week old and it is tough. The canned foods have odd colors in them and they seem to stain the worst.

      I have 2 young children a cat and a dog so my carpets get dirty easy. A little grape juice here and some dog prints there.It is hard to clean the carpets manually, that is why the bissell little green would be great for us. We could touchup the spill spots or even deep clean old ones. Bissel is a trusted name in carpet cleaning, there products are great and reliable.

      The day we moved into our new home Lil Man was running through the living room and slipped, falling, and catching the bridge of his nose on the edge of the sofa. A blood fest ensued and needless to say the first place the blood hit before I could get to him with a towel was onto the carpet. After I got him settled, got the bleeding stopped, and knew for sure he hadn’t broken his little nose I set about cleaning the blood stains off the carpet. Unfortunately after using several carpet cleaning products and a professional clean the blood stain is still in the carpet.

      Coffee! There have been a few times when, as fairly new parents, we’ve stumbled across our living room or bedroom floor (light carpet in both rooms) with a cup of coffee and sloshed our mugs. Even getting to the spill quickly means leaving a small stain.

      I struggle with the stains on the carpet of our stairs. We don’t usually wear shoes inside the house but I guess over time the rug loses its color and is more prone to stains. We steam clean the carpet every once in a while to clean things up on the stairs.
