Customer Review: A little pricey, but a great value...
Summary: 5 Stars
We are presently in a small apartment while my husband is working on his PhD, but this is a great product for cleaning up after spills from my sons. We had created a path just inside the door where the beige carpet had turned grey. This cleaned the area quickly and easily using the hand held attachment.
I have also used this to clean the car upholstery and it was FABULOUS. It pulled out drinks spilled years ago. It also cleaned up the line of dirt that had matted the carpet, right along the edge of the floor mats. The outline of the floor mat is no longer visible when I pull the floor mats up.
My biggest challenge has been some red Gatorade Fruit Punch powder that was spilled and mixed with water by my little helpers... it has not come right out, but more is pulled out with each batch of water & formula. I will continue trying until the Spot Bot stops pulling the "pink" from the carpet.
I have found that the "fiber cleaning formula" for the full size Bissell cleaners seems to be more effective, and can be diluted much more than the formulas that are designated for the smaller machines. Please know that Bissell does not suggest this, however, the Spot Bot goes through the suggested cleaners FAR TOO FAST.

This machine cleans too well!! If you have a deep set in stain, this machine will clean your rug to brand new condition!! If your rugs have more than a few isolated stains, I would recommend getting a bissel steam cleaner that can clean your entire rug to get a deep down clean everywhere. This machine is great for the stains that don't come out with a atand up rug cleaner. In my case, my rugs were pretty clean, I clean my rugs every other month with a Hoover All Trac rug/ floor cleaner, and use the Bissel Smart Bot to clean the stains that don't come out with the Hoover. I have little kids, so I tend to get a few isolated stains that come right out with the smart bot!! The first time I used this machine, I tried the set-in stain setting, and it removed a stain that I couldn't get out with any of my cleaning line-ups! I used this on all kinds of stains on my rugs, and my Mom's rugs, and it cleaned to perfection!! There is nothing that cleans The best part is that you just place the smart bot over the stain and press whatever setting you want, you can walk away, and do something else while it cleans, and then the machine will beep to let you know that it is done. Your stain will be removed! I hope my review helped. :)Customer Review: In love...

So I bought this little beast two Xmases ago for my mother in law, who was also getting a puppy. I thought it looked perfect for an older person who might have some nasty messes to clean! A winner gift for the grandma with everything! Fast forward a while, and now it's my doggie who has gotten a little geriatric and is having some problems in the potty department. So, I asked her if she wouldn't mind if we borrowed it, since her pooch is no longer in the puppy stage. She happily conceded and I brought it home yesterday. I was extremely disappointed to discover that it's never been out of the box! But fortunately, my dog was quick to provide an opportunity for use tonight! Well, bottom line is.... she IS NOT EVER TAKING THIS BACK. I will hold it ransom! It was awesome and totally her loss!!!! It easily cleaned up the mess that my dog had left for us. In three minutes, my carpet looked as if it had never been touched! The only little annoyance was that it took some priming for the cleaning fluid to squirt out (but customer service quickly and politely helped me out) and now it's great! I have used it 3 times tonight and I am totally in love with this little machine. Her loss is definitely my gain, so........MERRY CHRISTMAS to ME!Customer Review: Works great!!

I just purchased this carpet cleaner yesterday from Lowes for $129. I would have gotten the one from Amazon but I didn't have time to wait and if I paid for faster delivery it would have cost more than Lowes price.
This machine is very easy to use and works well. I had a printer ink spot on my light beige carpet that has been there for about 2 plus months and after 2 treatments with the Oxy 2 solution it was dramatically lighter. I was going to do another run on it but wanted to do some other spots to test the machine out. We moved in about 2 months ago and even though the carpet had been professionally cleaned prior to moving day by the folks moving out the rigors of moving in have left the carpet a mess. The spotbot has had no problem with the many stains on the carpet and the steps. The carpet was no more wet after the Spotbot than with any other carpet cleaner. It does use alot of the solution and I will definately buy the solution from Amazon as the price is far better than in the store. I didn't experience any "crop circles" post cleaning although I would imagine that would depend on how dirty your carpet is. I haven't experienced any leaking but then again I have had it less than 24 hours. So far so good.

I have to start by saying I am loving this machine. I have had it for about 6 months and it has made cleaning cat stains from my beige carpet quick and easy to deal with, as well as gotten out many stains which I wasn't sure were going to be lifted. Even a red stain from some vomitted canned cat food (I was able to hit it right away of course and maybe that was why). I guess I was lucky enough to get a really well-made machine too. It worked straight out of the box, and while my carpet is very slightly damp when the cycle is done, it dries within minutes. I haven't experienced any color rings left in the carpet. The "included" missing tray...eh...haven't really wanted for it. The solution does go quickly, but I get 4-5 surface cycles from one tank, and at least 3 deep cleans. In fairness, it's an appropriately sized tank for the small machine. To get more cycles from it would really surprise me. I get about 3-4 tanks from the bottles of solutions. Filling the tank with chemicals is easy with the amount lines printed right on the tank, and any leftover solution can be left in the tank for the next use. In the end, all I know is I don't have to get on my hands and knees anymore to clean up messes. THAT is worth it's weight in gold!
