Surprisingly easy to use
As often as my cat upchucks hairballs on the carpet and my elderly mother forgets to take off her shoes when she comes in the house, I figured it was probably cheaper to buy a carpet shampooer than rent one as often as I'd like to be able to use it.The Bissell TurboClean PET is lightweight, compact, comes with handy tools for upholstery, and is surprisingly easy to prep, use, and clean. The clean and dirty water tanks come off and go back on securely and without struggle. The mechanism is incredibly simple: plug it in, turn on the switch, push it forward while holding the trigger to dispense the soapy water, then release the trigger and pull back to suck dirty water out of the carpet. Even the instruction booklet is comprehensive and clear.I was thoroughly impressed with how much water I could pull out of the carpet. I made several passes to get as much out as possible, and the carpet was only damp when I finished. Since I waited for nice weather so I could open the windows, the carpet was completely dry within less than 8 hours.The cord is reasonably long - actually longer than my Shark vacuum. It's fairly loud, but not egregiously so.Cleanup was also easy: the dirty water tank has a small plughole for quick emptying, and a larger hole for removing the float mechanism that allows for a thorough rinsing. The brushroll area is less easy to clean, but the entire device is lightweight enough to turn upside-down in order to get a paper towel or disinfectant wipe around and behind the brushroll (I highly recommend thoroughly cleaning that area after using).There were a few spots that didn't come entirely clean, and I was expecting that, but all in all, the "before and after" difference was remarkable. I also purchased Bissell's Clean + Allergen shampoo due to my allergies, and detected no fragrance and had no reaction to the shampoo.Ver másVer menos
