BISSELL Little Green Multi-Purpose Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner, Car and Auto Detailer, with Exclusive Specialty Tools, Green, 1400B

25Jul24 Update – I used it on my stairs. First I used my big Shop Vac to get at all possible loose dirt. Yes I balanced my large shop vac on the stairs as I vacuum each carpeted step. My shop vac suction is far greater than any standard vacuum so I figured okay it should not be that dirty with using the Little Green. I WAS WRONG! The little green worked great as the water was like brown sewage water. I was like wow that’s a lot of dirt that was in the carpet fiber that my shop vac didn’t get. I’m impressed. Now the only caution I would mention is that when on it is loud it was in the range of 87-88 decibels to which 80 is considered loud noise. Because in use you are as close to it I would suggest ear plugs. Keep in mind that typical upright vacuum cleaners are also in that range as well but you are closer to the little green as you are using the hand held brush head. There is also an attachment called hydro rinse that works well to rinse clean the machine hose etc after using the machine. That works great and helps clean the machine for your next use. I like that they have this. Overall I’m happy with this replacement unit and is working great.

24Jul24 Update – I received the replacement unit but it did also remind me that the hatprevious unit that I received not only had the crimped hose but that it also had water droplets in the tank. So was that a repackaged one that I originally received? Cause the replacement one is a different box and it’s tanks are dry. Will update you on how it works on my carpeted stairs.

Original Review – I needed it to work on cat pee stains in the carpet and bed mattress. But…..it came with a crimped hose that was bent on how they had it in the box. Didn’t really think anything about it but in use it resulted in poor performance. So what happens with the bent hose is that at that bent it starts to suction close on itself so there is little to no suction at the head. That was so terrible. So sending it back for replacement. Bissell folks please relook on how everything is packed in the box cause it is causing this bent/crimped hose. Or make the box bigger so this doesn’t happen in the way it’s packed. Otherwise will update how it works when zI get the replacement. I havealso the traditional Bissell carpet cleaner which I love so I want this portable to supplement or use instead of the big carpet cleaner unit when I only want to spot clean for cat pee, etc.

Let me tell you, it’s a miracle worker! I have a light linen couch that I swear I clean constantly. I vacuum regularly, and I even pre-treat and soak the removable covers every few months. However, despite my best efforts, the couch always seemed a little dingy.

Well, I decided to give the BISSELL Little Green a try, and I was shocked at the results! Even though I thought I kept the couch clean, the water in the dirty water tank after cleaning a single cushion was disgusting. It turns out all that regular cleaning wasn’t enough to remove all the built-up dirt and grime.

Here’s why I love the BISSELL Little Green for cleaning my light linen couch:

Powerful Cleaning: This little machine packs a serious punch! It lifted dirt and grime I never knew was there, leaving my couch looking brighter and cleaner than it has in ages.
Gentle on Fabric: I was worried about using a harsh cleaner on my delicate linen fabric, but it was gentle yet effective. The upholstery tool attachment allowed me to target specific areas without damaging the fabric.
Easy to Use: Filling the water tanks, adding cleaning solution, and using the attachments was very user-friendly.
Portable and Compact: The BISSELL Little Green is lightweight and easy to maneuver around the house. It’s been perfect for cleaning the couch cushions individually without having to move the entire couch, curtains, rugs, and carpet.

Overall, I’m incredibly impressed with this machine. It’s a lifesaver for anyone with light-colored furniture or upholstery that seems to hold onto dirt. It’s powerful, easy to use, and gentle on fabric. My couch looks amazing, and I can’t believe the difference this little machine made!
Highly recommend!

 First let me say I don’t normally take time to write reviews but I just had to share my story because I’m still giddy about how well this machine worked.
I recently purchased a beautiful cream, designer chair at a furniture consignment shop and the lighting must have been bad in the store because I didn’t notice at all that it was quite dirty. I was just so excited that it was exactly what I had been looking for – color, size, style and price!
When I got it home it was perfect in every way EXCEPT the off-white that was so perfect in the fluorescent lighting was a dingy EWWW in the natural light of our living room. I took the armrest covers off and YUCK! I noticed how dirty the arms were and then noticed that I hadn’t looked that closely on the store – there were spots all over the chair!
The store doesn’t take returns AND I loved everything about the chair except the grime and spots (how did I not notice those in the store???) so I googled best upholstery cleaner and the BISSELL Little Green Machine showed up as top-rated in multiple blogs so I searched for it on Amazon. It had awesome reviews confirming what the blogs has said so I ordered it.
It came super-fast and was easy to set up. I got to work. Well, my sweet husband got to work. My plan was to have him handle the task as he’s usually in charge of the grimy stuff. Love that man. 😊🙏
Well I had no idea cleaning upholstery could be so fun! This little machine sucked the grime right out! It was really satisfying to see it get sucked out right before my eyes. Before my husband knew it, he was free to watch his baseball game because I had taken over.
When I was finished the cream chair looked like new!
And I didn’t stop there.
I had a 14-year old blue chair in my home office that had weathered two babies, lots of journaling and phone conversations with my feet tucked up underneath me, latte spills and just…a full life! Our whole family loves mommy’s blue chair as it’s where good conversations and snuggles have happened my kids’ entire lives. When we recently remodeled our home I was looking for a new chair for myself. My whole family protested because they loved it so much. It bummed me out because – well LOOK at the “before” photos of the blue chair I posted. Our whole house was clean and fresh from the much-needed after 17 years in the house remodel. Having to look at that chair, as much as I loved the memories of it, grossed me out.
So when I finished the cream chair I thought, I’m going to see what the BISSELL Little Green Machine could do for the blue chair. I figured, worst case scenario it would make it worse and then I’d HAVE to get my new chair. 😀
I honestly didn’t think it would make a difference. I had actually had a professional rug + upholstery cleaner look at it and say he couldn’t do anything to make it look better just two months ago during the remodel. So despite seeing the INCREDIBLE results on the cream chair, my expectations were low. Additionally, this was an inexpensive chair with a sueded microfiber fabric – not nearly as well made as the cream chair so I wasn’t sure if the not super-sturdy fabric would withstand the cleaning fluid or brush.
I was blown away. As you can see by the Before and After photos – the BISSELL mighty little machine did an amazing job!!! The blue chair is saved and we are ALL excited. Yes, even me. 😃 I just wish I would have taken videos of cleaning the blue chair – the water was SO dirty. GROSS!
Again though, it was SO satisfying throughout the process to see the dirt come out and have brand new chairs.
This machine is WELL worth the very reasonable price and I also absolutely love being able to restore two chairs rather than buy new ones. Less landfill and consumerism to help the planet. And the pocketbook!!!
A little technique scoop (if you’re still reading) – on the cream chair we sprayed the cleaning water from the machine on the area, then sprayed Resolve and let it sit for a minute or two before we sucked up the dirt. The Resolve did make the dirty water in the tank pretty foamy and I’m not sure if it could damage the machine or the chair but when we tried it we were kind of thinking we didn’t have anything to lose as the fabric was so grungy when we got it home to natural light, we would not have kept the chair if the BISSELL didn’t work. The machine seems totally fine and of course the chair is now clean and beautiful!
I could not possibly love this little machine more and now I can feel much more confident with all of our new carpet and furniture because if we get a spill or a stain this lightly little green machine will take care of it!
I highly recommend the BISSELL Little Green Machine!
