Best Little Green Yet
on August 5, 2012
Posted by: noopysma
from Michigan, USA
I have owned a Little Green Machine in all it's forms, since it's inception. I could not imagine not having a Little Green in my cleaning arsenal. I use it for everything....carpets (especially track areas) & upholstery both inside my home & in my vehicles. I bought this current version because, after 14 years, my last one finally wore out. The new model I purchased is the one which does NOT heat the water. The hot water from my tap is hot enough to do the job & I feel the extra expense to get the version that heats the water just is not necessary. I find this design is a big improvement to the previous design with regard to the location of the liquid holding containers. A tip I would recommend: Going over the areas you cleaned with just the suction several times after the initial scrubbing & watch the fluid as it moves through the clear part of the cleaning brush until there is very little going through. Remember, the more moisture you extract, the quicker the dry time. I also speed up dry time by turning on my ceiling fans &/or using an ocelating fan. Once again, I would not be without one of these machines.

Should the water heat up?
on August 2, 2012
Posted by: CatLover
from Orlando
This is really a question more than a review. I've only used my Little Green a couple of times but the water never seems to get warm like I expected it to. It does not seem to heat at all. Is that normal?

If your Little Gree ProHeat only has one switch that activates the heater when turned on. Older models had two switches. Again, it will heat the water temperature 25 degrees warmer (up to 180 degrees). I hope this helps.

Power cord not long enough
on July 28, 2012
Posted by: gymcoach
from Tampa, FL, USA
I purchased this product for the purpose of cleaning one rug in my daughter's bedroom and the interior of my car. I cleaned the rug in her room and it looked great. However, I could not even get the Little Green unit to REACH my vehicle. I have two power outlets that I utilize for outdoors, and both are well over 15 feet away from accessing my vehicle. It would not be a problem except that you can't use an extension cord with the Little Green. I researched the Proheat Autocare but it only has a 15 foot cord as well. I would highly recommend that Bissell consider increasing the legnth of the cord to at least 25-30 feet or figure out a way to make the product safe to use with an extension cord. I am extremely disappointed and will be returning it to the store where I purchased it.

That is correct Jillmtc. You can read all precautions for this unit on page 3 of the user's guide. Here is a link to it: http://www.bissell.com/downloadfile.aspx?id=529&icid=ccrr

directions don't show full assembly
on July 28, 2012
Posted by: Gina
from Concord, CA, USA
Machine is a nice size, but I've never used it since the assembly directions are incomplete. I'm using the 1400-7 Little Green machine and I'm dissapointed that the engineering (or marketing?) department did not include instructions showing where the black rubber piece fits in the dirty water collection tank. I'm very irritated because I want to use this but I don't want it to leak....would you please post a better diagram of where all the parts fit together? I can't tell which way to insert the rubber piece. thanks.

The tall "duck bill" side of the gasket should be inserted into the opening on the outer, rounded side of the tank. The short side of the gasket should be open to the flat side of the tank.
When inserted properly the gasket should be flush with the bottom of the tank with the tall "duck bill" side going into the larger area of the tank. We redesigned the gasket with a notch in it to clearly fit on the tank because of the issue you are having with reinserting it.
If you need a new tank and gasket you can get one at this link: http://www.bissell.com/parts/?id=9143&sc=product&productid=2854&icid=ccrr

Everyone with a carpet should own one
on July 8, 2012
Posted by: SpungusX
from Bayonne, NJ, USA
Having 2 Chihuahuas that go everywhere, I didn't want to drag out the upright carpet shampooer just to clean a few inches of carpet. The little green machine is perfect in this capacity. It's very compact, stores easily, has very good capacity and does a great job spot cleaning the carpet. It also works very well on upholstery. Just don't expect miracles. It's meant for spot cleaning. For the big jobs, use a full sized unit. When used as intended, this little cleaner will prove to be invaluable.

Great machine until it starts leaking
on June 27, 2012
Posted by: Mike S
from Burlington County, NJ
I think this a great machine but had to keep a towel under it to soak up the cleaning solution that would leak out of it. Found the problem in the cleaning solution tank where the straw is pushed into the cap assembly. The area that the straw gets pushed into was cracked. Seems like a bad design if a rubbery straw can put enough pressure on it to crack it. Had to order a new cap assembly and seems to be ok now. We'll see how long this one lasts.

Loved mine so much I ordered one for a wedding gift.

I love my "Little Green" so much I ordered one for my Niece as a wedding gift. It has been such a life saver for me with two dogs and four cats, that I knew she will be in need of one in her new home with a cat, a dog and two new step-children.
