I had read reviews for it a few years ago, and the negative reviews convinced me that it wasn't worth buying. Why buy something when I could clean better without it? I got it as a christmas present a few months ago. It has some issues, but I'm still giving it five stars because I still love it!
SUCTION: It is true that the Little Green is not as powerful as a regular steam cleaner. But the suction is still pretty good. If you hold incorrectly, the opening isn't pressed against the carpeting and so it won't suck anything up. You have to make sure that the opening is sealed against the carpet. Once you know what angle to hold it at, it is easy to get it right. If you are confused about this, try it out on your palm.
SPRAYS EVERYWHERE: It sprays the water in a wide "fan". If it sprayed a tiny stream it would take forever to spray something, so the wide spray is good. If you were using a spray bottle, you'd have the same "problem". If you really don't want to hit something move it or cover it.
LEAKS: If you leave it sitting around full of water, it will leak. Mine has never leaked while I was cleaning, but one time I left it on the kitchen floor overnight and it left a pretty big puddle (of cleaning solution, not the dirty water). When you are done using it, you have to rinse it out and put it away. If I have a lot of cleaning fluid leftover, I put the tank in my mop bucket (opening facing up).
DIRTY WATER TANK HAS GUNK AND HAIR IN IT: Don't you ever vacuum?!(kidding). Pour hot water in there (bathtub faucet works great), slosh it around, and dump it out. Do that a few times. Don't leave dirty water in it, or it will smell. It's dirty water.
YES IT HAS ISSUES, BUT, IT IS WORTH HAVING AROUND: When I think of all the times I had to clean diaper blowout, spit-up, cat puke, and spilled drinks out of the carpet by soaking it up with rags, spraying it, waiting ten minutes and then "dabbing" (over and over and over again, with all the windows open) I just have to think of something else and try to stay positive. If anything happened to my Little Green I would buy a new one in a heartbeat.
I have been using it for months, but today was the day I knew I had to write a review for the Little Green. My toddler took off his diaper, "had an accident" and ground it into the creamy white carpet until there was over a square foot of... well, it was pretty horrible. If I had to spray and "dab" that clean, I'd still be working on it next week. But with the Little Green it took about 20 minutes and that includes the extra time it took to clean out the Little Green (because: ewww).

After having a baby with reflux, two cats, a husband, and ME using tan microsuede couches for almost 4 yrs, I was about to pay to have them professionally cleaned. When I looked into the cost of that, I then started looking for upholstery cleaning machines. With microsuede, if you dont remove all of the water, a horrible watermark is left and these compound over time and make the appearance of the fabric look awful. I knew that whatever I purchased was going to have to be able to remove the cleaning fluid AND clean really well.This product not only meets my standards, but exceeds them! Worked like a charm and will save us tons of money in the future since we have a new baby coming in 6 wks!
FYI, included with the machine is an 8oz bottle of the cleaner (Advanced Stain). I bought a 32oz bottle along with the bissell because I wasn't sure how much I was going to need per cleaning (only a few ozs!!!) and wasn't sure if any came with the machine. The 8 oz. bottle will last me a good amount of time! Just thought I would mention that!
The machine is a little loud (wasn't sure of what to expectsounds like a vacuum). But, it's worth every penny!!!!!
Best Deals for BISSELL Little Green ProHeat Compact Multi-Purpose Carpet Cleaner
After reading reviews on Amazon, I sent my grandson to buy locally the Bissell SpotBot Pet Carpet Cleaner. He had not seen what I wanted, and brought this home by mistake. It is the best spot carpet cleaner we could want. The power brush works well, and the vacuum extracts the filth and water, so the restored carpet dries quickly. My house is a severe test, since we have multiple pets, and the less said the better. We have used other carpet-cleaning products with this, besides the little bottle included, and they work well, and the machine has not clogged.Honest reviews on BISSELL Little Green ProHeat Compact Multi-Purpose Carpet Cleaner
This is the best hundred bucks I have ever spent! I have had this product for several months. I wanted to have plenty of time to use it and really test it out before reviewing. I really wanted the spot bot but could not justify spending that much money on it. After owning it I am VERY happy that I ended up with this instead of the spot bot. I LOVE this machine. I have two dogs and a child (also a military husband who tracks in god knows what on his dirty boots every day) and my carpet is fighting a never ending battle to survive. With this machine I have been able to VERY quickly clean up messes and also remove stains that have been in my carper for over a year. One of my dogs has a bladder issue that has required three surgeries in the past year. In the weeks leading up to and the two weeks following these surgeries he becomes incontinent and leaves at least a half dozen stains (more simply put, he pees in the carpet)per DAY. I have had problems in the past with trying to clean these messes up and just before buying this product I was thinking of replacing my carpet. I bought the little green proheat and proheat carpet shampooer on the same day. THEY ARE BOTH AMAZING! Since I began using them my carpet looks brand new. Literally. My neighbors all comment on how clean my carpet is and ask what type it is since it still looks brand new. I LOVE IT! Every time my dog has an accident or my kid spills something I just grab my little green, spend 30-60 second using it and BAM!, the mess is gone. I have used this to clean us fresh messes and also to clean up very old stains that I thought had no chance at coming out. I am so glad that I did not spend the extra money on the spot bot since I have read it can take over an hour to clean one stain. The little green is so much faster and could not be easier to use!The only thing I must warn your about is that it is a good idea to actually empty the dirty water tank after each use. I forgot to do this for almost a month and started to notice an unpleasant odor every time I started to use it. When I finally had to empty the dirty water chamber I realized that this was there the smell was coming from. For the first two months I was religious about cleaning the dirty chamber and Flushing the spray line with hot water (as I had read that spray line clogging seemed to be a problem for a few people.) After several months of use I have not been flushing the spray line and only suck up some clean water from my kitchen sink after each use and mine is performing beautifully. It is very simple to use and requires no real preparation. I simply fill the cleaning solution tank when It is empty (rarely) and put it in the closet and it is ready to go at a moments notice. The suction is amazing and the cleaning solution is quite hot after the heater has had 15-20 seconds to heat up. You will not regret buying this product; I promise! If mine were to break tomorrow I would absolutely run out and buy another!

I really look at all the reviews of everything before I buy it. I don't usually write reviews but I felt that this little machine has been so great that I had to let people know. First off, out of millions of these machines sold there is possibly going to be a lemon in the group. If yours doesn't work return it and try a new one. I think I have the slightly older model because mine doesn't have the skinny attachment shown in this picture, but it's the same machine.I've had this machine over 2 years now and it still works great. It's light and compact, the hose is adequate to get where you need to without bumping into the machine all the time. The machine itself is quieter than some other machines, but of course it's going to be somewhat noisy. You won't be able to clean in a sleeping baby's room, but it won't wake up the whole household if you have to use it in the middle of the night. The electrical cord is long enough to extend to places you need to go and it's very compact and it fits neatly under my bathroom sink without taking up all the room. I like the heater for the water because sometimes the water in the tank can cool down before you are finished with cleaning the spot. The instructions are very easy to follow and it's pretty easy to clean out when you are done. The dirty water tank you do have to rinse a few times and shake the container to get rid of any debris, but truly not that big of a deal. The super tough stain brush is helpful for tough stains. I usually don't have to use it though because the regular attachment does fine.
All in all I would highly recommend this machine. It has been a life saver of stains in my carpets. I have 1 cat, that pukes, a dog and kids and this has saved my carpets many times.
