Bissell SpotBot Pet 33N8 Portable Deep Cleaner: Remove tough stains and pet odors at the push of a button with this hands-free portable deep cleaner. Uniquely designed brushes reach further into the carpet where the deepest part of the stain resides for complete spot removal — no elbow grease needed. Take a product tour.
Bought this because we have 3 dachshunds and we needed more than a paper towel and a spot cleaner. We had talked about it for awhile before purchase. I own a regular size steam/carpet cleaner, but it is very bulky to drag out each time one has an accident. First one we bought we had to return 5 days later due to leaking and machine not removing water/not working. We took it back and exchanged for another unit. It does an adequate job. The one thing that I see as a shortcoming is, it leaves what we call "crop circles", wet circles. If these circles are in a traffic area collect dirt and make carpet look worse than before you clean up the urine/stain. And tend to leave large clean spot in other areas. I have started using the hand held hose attachment and it seems to do a better job of removing the water and not leaving circles. And it is a must to clean out the dirty water vessel every use or you still get the smell. Also, none of the cleaners, even the ones made for pet stains, get rid of urine smell.
What's great about it: easier than dragging out the big steam cleaner for spots/ has hand held hose and brush
What's not so great: crop circles not enough suction
