What it does
A small corded spot cleaner from BISSELL that sprays and extracts cleaning solution from carpet, upholstery and car interiors, with a hose that rinses itself.
- Heatwave technology maintains water temperature during cleaning
- HydroRinse tool flushes the hose after each use to cut down on odor
- Comes with stain tool and stair tool for carpet, upholstery and steps
- Rated by BISSELL for rugs, stairs, pet beds, upholstery and auto interiors
- Carry handle and compact body for storage in a closet
A good fit for homes with pets or kids that need to lift spills and stains from rugs, stairs and furniture without renting a big machine. The trade-offs are a short hose, reports of leaks, and the fact that Heatwave keeps hot tap water warm rather than heating cold water.
