    Thank you for watching our video about the Little Green! We love learning about all the latest gadgets so let us know if there are other cleaning trends you're curious about, and we might test them out!

    I have one and I really like it. I've used it on living room chair upholstery the cloth seats in my car. I can second the experts advice not to use too much liquid. The leak in the video may have been from not tightening the water cap on tight enough. I haven't had any leakage issues on mine.

    Thank you for making this video! It was very helpful. I enjoyed the concise and straightforward way that you presented your information, as well as the practical and descriptive content. Your format comes across as much more authentic than so many other youtubers, so please don't change that. If I were to give one criticism, it would be that there was an echo that, at times, made it difficult to understand a few things. Please consider getting a slightly nicer microphone so that we can hear you a bit better(I don't mean anything fancy). Seriously, this video is an A+

    I like the Bissell Big Green Machine 1672. I like the canister and wide (9.5") suction head with the stronger hose. It can be used upright with the wand. The one i'm using is borrowed and no longer manufactured. It also holds more water than the portables you've featured. The only one out of the four that I'd consider is the Spotclean Pro (43sec, on the left).
    I used to do custodial/janitorial work and have used much larger machines for all kinds of carpet and floor work.

    Had a Little Green for over 5 years and it works great for removing cat barf from carpet. I spray the cat barf with cleaner, scrub with sponge, then boil hydrogen peroxide with a little water in my Little Green and use that to remove the stain.

    Hehe i had it before it was cool oh how long have you had it? Ive had mine for a while it was second hand so it's older yeah so the sprayer part doesn't work at the moment so it did break but the suction still works. I'm just curious if the spraying portion on yours broke too if you still have it

    The most important part with any cleaning is using hot water then rinse with cold water. My EXPERIENCE with carpet/upholstery cleaning machines is use hot water ! Far better results.

    Is this the Bissel 1400B or the 1400M ? They both look a like but are differently priced.. Not sure what the difference is.

      Along with chili, we tested the Little Green on chocolate syrup, red wine, and oil pastel alternative stains on a white, medium pile rug. On the same rug, we also tested it on Kool-Aid, mustard, soy sauce, and Cheez Doodle, but found that those stains were too easy to get out.

    Commenting on every video I can find about this unit. HOW DO YOU CLEAN THE ATTACHMENT?!?!? As far as I can tell the clear plastic on the scrubber/sucker attachment does not come off. There is gunk built up in there on the sides that I have no way of getting to. What do I do???????

      This was a comment by an Amazon purchaser: Bissel Little Green Machine Theres a white mechanism inside of the container that gets all the stuff stuck in it, such as the hair. I wasnt able to "unplug" it
      Or pull it out to really wash it. I looked online & on the instructions but doesn't seem like its removable. Soooo I came up with the idea of putting the container back on the unit. I filled a bowl in the sink with just water, turned the thing on and sucked up only water (removed the brush head) it forced water through the white part in the container pretty powerfully. I did it about 3 times and everything came out, hair and all. So I suggest if you get one & need a clean out, thats the best bet." Hope that helps

      Hi! You clean the attachment by turning on the machine and clicking the sprayer part while it’s running. Dont actually clean anything, just let it run and it will rinse out the nozzle 👍🏾
