Description of BISSELL 79011 Proheat Upright Deep CleanerBissell Proheat Upright Deep Cleaner - the most advanced and thorough way to deep clean and protect your carpet In a house with plenty of light-colored carpet, pets, or a combination of the two, there are enough messes where it pays to own your own steamcleaner. Deep cleaning is meant as an additional step to vacuuming as it shoots warm water deep into carpet fibers to loosen and remove dirt and grit that even daily vacuuming can?t reach. Bissell?s ProHeat cleaner has a DirtLifter Powerbrush with six rows of brushes for lifting out embedded dirt particles and utilizes its 12 amps of strong suction to pull them in. The built-in heater keeps tap water 25 percent hotter than most steam cleaners do and distributes a mixture of warm water and cleaning solution into carpets to provide the most effective cleaning. Completely safe on stain-resistant carpets, the ProHeat can apply a Scotchgard protector formula during cleaning to reduce the amount of wear on the stain-resistant coating. Besides carpeting, this cleaner can be used on home and automobile upholstery and has a 9-foot hose to reach into tight spaces. The ProHeat has a wide, 12-inch path and its onboard accessories include a spraying crevice tool, a tough stain tool, a Scotchgard applicator, and a cartridge. Bissell covers this deep cleaner under a full one-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde
Tools and Hardware Reviews of BISSELL 79011 Proheat Upright Deep CleanerCustomer Review: Worked really good Summary: 5 Stars
Bought it even though the store I got it from didnt have the better one with 2 rollers for cleaning, Then I got major attitude from em to get this one off their storage shelf, so I and my new neighbor used it and took it back... HA! HA! WARNING!! Before using.. VACCUM!! Vaccum every single square inch of your carpet and then do it again! If not, you will get wet lent EVERYWHERE that sticks to the carpet that this machine pulls up. If you dont vaccum, dont say I didnt warn ya! A bagless vaccum works better than a bagged one for this purpose, but if you do get wet lent (almost unavoidable) just either pick it up as you go, and then once the whole floor dries, vaccum it all up as I did.. and it picks up easily and youll have an incredibly MUCH cleaner floor.
Pre-treatment worked really well. Dont try and get some stain next to the wall unless you use the handheld attachment as rollers only get 2 inches from the wall. Like with any cleaner.. TAKE YOUR TIME! Rushing it will get rid of some of a good stain, but taking your time to go over the problem areas and high traffic matted down areas will be well worth it! You can stick you finger on the rollers while their moving (it wont suck off your hand!) and it makes you realize how many strokes the cleaner does in seconds compared to the minutes youd have to equal by hand.. another reason this sucker pays for itself!
Carpet dry time during sunny feel good day to open up windows with a breeze like I did.. less than 90 minutes. Do it at night.. itll be wet for 4 to 5 hours. So have the ceiling fans going as it DOES HELP! It did very well pulling up matted carpet especially where my computer desk was, and I have cheap apartment carpet. Also, what youve heard IS TRUE.. use the Bissel brand cleaner solution and not a store brand.. my brother had the same cleaner and he preaches about the difference. Course Ive heard good things about Simple Green concentrate being used instead.. so maybe thatll work just as good. His however, went out after 7 times that he used it and 6 other times friends and family used it.. so figure it lasted to clean about 15,000 sq ft, or a house 13 times.. and do the math compared to renting for $50 each time or cleaning service with an average of $130 each time. So I guess if it lasts 4 times or more, your good.
NOTE: Just be sure to pour any unused cleaner back and dump all the water reservoir too, to avoid leaking when your done. Another note.. When pouring waste down sink, put a strain on sink as that wet lent WILL CLOG YOUR SINK UP FAST! Also using the rinse mode really does a good job on removing the soapy film feel off the carpet.. I went over my rooms I did 2 times, and felt much better on my feet and far less cleaning smell (though wasnt bad to begin with.)
But of all the advice concerning this or ANY model, VACCUM FIRST!! My neighbor who moved in his new home before he moved his furniture in, vaccumed his carpet 3 times and then used this for the whole afternoon, and we both were amazed at how that new carpet smell was dramatically reduced. And yes.. his carpet had a good bit of dirt in it.. EVEN NEW! As for the ones who kept theirs I really cant say if this thing lasts only 5 or 6 times or more and then fails how your being ripped off. I mean do the math for crying out loud. 1,200 sq ft 5 times with say 6 rooms and a hall.. For just 5 times a rental would run $250, pro cleaner would run over $750, so spending $200 on this to have it break after 5, 8, or more uses sounds like a bargain to me! So stop the belly-aching already! If you have 4 or more rooms, and it lasts 4 or more times.. congratulations.. it paid for itself!
