The item cleans as advertise, and the suckshion is very good. Except the buttom for the rinse/suck is too low, and you have to keep bending over to turn it on. Also the handly is too short, for anyone over 5'8, it will wind up hurting your back. All they had to do was made it 1-2" LONGER! Would I recomment this? Yes and No. for taller people over 5"8 and the on/off buttom as stated above NO. But YES to everything else as far as cleaning,
Bought the Smartwash in May 2019 LOVED it until February 2020, the brushes stopped rotating. Can't seem to get any help : (

I was in need for new carpet cleaning machine. My 15 year old Hoover has served me well. I have fixed the suction hose several times since every time use put it in motion, it would lead to wearing a hole in it. I also replaced the brush assembly one time. The machine was just to tired and would not clean well anymore. So I was looking at the Bissel and compared it to the Smart-Wash. I got the Smart-wash but was not sure about the automatic mix and trigger less design. I love I don't have to mix the chemicals with the water and the trigger less design is great. This machine got out a 4 year stain in two passes where the old machine tried four times to no avail.
