Bissell 1200B

Pros: gets out red wine stains!!!!!!

Cons: solutions are slightly expensive, but well worth it

Review: anyone know how hard it is to get red wine stains out?? yeah, well.. after trying 4 different products, and even a steam cleaner, it was still there. i was at best buy and noticed this little contraption says "gets out set-in red wine stains". i...

Pros: Very effective cleaning, easy to use, compact

Cons: Supplies are costly (though not a total deal breaker)

The Bottom Line: The SpotBot is sure to please even the most exacting clean freak. Don't let the size fool you -- this is one powerful machine.

Review: Admittedly, I never would have bought this for myself. I've long subscribed to the idea that carpet stain removal was something that had to be done by hand and required elbow grease.

"There is positively no way that this little machine,...

Pros: Efficient, cleans even worst messes, even scrubs for you!

Cons: One spot or small area at a time (not for big areas)

The Bottom Line: Great for bad spots and pet stains. Does the work for you!

Review: It all started when my older cat got really sick (cancer) and started vomiting and getting uncontrollable diarhhea all over our nice new house with nice new carpet. I was at wits end ... the house was on the market and had to be "house beautiful"...

Pros: An effortless, idiot-proof, good spot cleaning machine.

Cons: I wish the area that it covers was just a little bigger.

Review: When I bought this little machine I wasn't expecting a whole lot...I'd had rug cleaners before. But this little thing is like a robot! All you have to do is make a decision as to whether or not the spot is on the surface or set in and/or old. Then,...

Pros: Looks great, Cleans even better! Fast. Simple to use, Small for storage.

Cons: Loud, pricey.

The Bottom Line: Recommended to anyone with kids or animals. I can see apartment dwellers LOVING this machine.

Review: A week after Christmas, I went to clean one of my regular clients home. On the floor in the living room there was the most adorable little gadget. I was intrigued. My client tells me that her brother in law bought it for Christmas, and it is the...

Pros: Compact Size, Cleaning Ability, Price, Ease of Use

Cons: I Can't Find Any

The Bottom Line: Everyone needs one of these whether you have pets, children, or just a husband - with one room or 100 with carpet.

Review: We put brand new carpet in our home to try to increase the chance of selling quickly at the price we wanted. However, one week later our large dog became sick and vomited red and green mess all over the carpet in the middle of the living room. I...

Pros: Cleans smaller spots really well, without me needing to scrub.

Cons: Leaves a circular area much cleaner then the rest of the carpet! ;-)

Review: It does what it is built to do. Cleans up smaller areas on all types of carpet. We have 2 small kids and a dog. And all 3 take turns messing up our carpets. The spot bot is a lifesaver! Cleans all the messes they have made so far on our standard and...

Pros: Cleans spots well.

Cons: Price of unit, cleaning solutions.

Review: I got the SpotBot as a gift. I must say, it works well for spots, even some that are slightly set in. For really set-in spots, it took a few cleanings with the bot to get the stain out, but it worked. This is a great tool for those who have...

Pros: It works alone and works well.

Cons: Needs more spray options when using manually.

Review: I love the Spot Bot. It works well and the machine seems sturdy and good quality. And I love that I can walk away and let it do its thing. The only design change I would make would be to have more options for the spray when using manually. You can't...

Pros: Oxy Gen2 & hose suction is powerful, portable, long hose and cord, convenient, easy-to-store

Cons: Consumes solution fast, no lid on dirt tank, no steam, solution will remove color

The Bottom Line: Bissell really likes for you to see how dirty you are with plenty of clear plastics to see the final murky water result. You feel and know it really works.

Review: I bought the Bissell 1200A. Not much difference from what I've gathered between the 1200B. Neither are steam cleaners though, beware, but this was all that was listed on this site so I'm setting up my review here. This is a wet vac. There is no heat...
