Bissell 1715-G Spotlifter Bagless Handheld Vacuum

Pros: Easy to use and inexpensive
Cons: None

This little steam cleaner really does a good job. The cats throw up their hair balls along with some cat food and it is time to pull out the steam cleaner. Typically I am only cleaning a few square inches of soiled carpet. However, cats have an ability...

Pros: Cleans small areas very well
Cons: battery, small cleaning solution compartment, time consuming

I bought this machine because I have 2 cats and a dog. Messes happen. I was sick of scrubbing the floor and blotting trying to get out stains. I wanted to get something to clean up messes but didn’t want to spend a lot of money. Features and ...

Pros: Really gets the stain out!
Cons: Solution tank too small!

I was actually wanting a steam vac for Christmas but my husband got me the Bissell Spot Lifter instead. When I really think about it, when in the world would I have time to steam vac my house? It's cheaper to just rent one once a year. But this little...

Pros: Great hand held cleaner that always cleans up my carpet. It never fails.
Cons: Lots of them.

I really didn't plan on writing a review about the Bissell Spot Lifter. After all, almost 100 people have written reviews and have probably mentioned everything that you wanted to read. But when the Spot Lifter saved my carpet again, I just felt that I...

Pros: Always charged
Cons: Only enough charge for one small spot, breaks easily

We have had a Bissell Spot Lifter Cordless for about a year now - got it about the same time we got our dog. The purchase was made with the dog in mind, and 90% of our usage of the Spot Lifter has been for spots made by said dog. I thought that having a...

Pros: removes spots easily
Cons: runs out of power and cleaner quickly

I had tried almost everything to get the stains out of my carpet and this is the best so far. I tried all of the sprays and foams, but they never got the stains completely out. And I was tired of renting the Rug Doctor every few months. I still rent...

Pros: Good idea. Vacuum works well.
Cons: Battery life is too short, as is solution tank.

If you own cats, you have to expect to have the occassional wet surprise on your carpet. If you're stupid enough to own two cats, cleaning up nicely formed clumps of hair and cat food the size of pretzel nuggets becomes second nature. Combine two cats ...

Pros: Nice color and no cords to trip over.
Cons: Heavy, long charging time, low usage time, small collection tank, overpriced.

You know, rarely in my opinions that I have considered sharing could I find a product to write about that I absolutely hated with enough passion to take the time to express my innate disappointment with it to others. Well, today I’m taking the first...

Pros: Easily removes stains, lightweight, fairly quiet
Cons: Low battery life, takes a long time to charge, goes through cleaning solution quickly

The Bissell Spot Lifter is a must-have, especially if you have kids or pets. Be advised that this machine is specifically designed for small jobs.

Spot Lifter requires no assembly with an initial charge up of 24 hours. The basic model comes...

Pros: works like a charm!!
Cons: Battery won't last long

This product is amazing. This is the first and only appliance I have ever asked for for Christmas, and I am so glad. After getting burned by the Dirt Devil Mop Vac, I was skeptical of items like this, but I am so happy with it. Throw away your Resolve...

Pros: Portable and small. Strong vacuum. Easy maintenance.
Cons: No holding compartment for time that the battery is being charged.

Incredible! I was able to clean the oldest stain on our carpet. Our carpet had been treaded on so much by the dirty shoes of our children that I thought it was permanently discolored with dirt. I had vacuumed it countless times. I had scrubbed at it ...

Pros: lightweight, easy to assemble and disassemble
Cons: Long charging time, inadequate power

I have a dog. I have a son. I have carpet. A local store had the 1715 on sale for $19.99. I read the reviews on epinions, and I bought one. Maybe the model number is very important. The other reviews were for a 1715-G. The one I bought is a 1715-S (rem ...

Pros: Great for the quick cleanup of spills
Cons: Difficult to clean out

Make no mistake; this is a Man's toy.

Sleek. Stylish. Powerful motor with manly rumbles. Oh yeah baby, this is the stuff. At least, that's what I tell myself. It's easier on the ego then "It cleans up urine good".

I...

Pros: Works well on simple stains
Cons: Runs out of power very quickly

I have two little carpet graffiti artists at my home, ages 7 years and 18 months old. At least once every couple of days I put my toe into something wet or slimy smeared into an interesting pattern. I run for the Bissell Spot Lifter.

Juice...

Pros: It's light-weight and it works on liquid messes.
Cons: Only holds a charge for 5 minutes.

I began fostering for a local Labrador retriever rescue in the summer of 2001. Most of the dogs we ...
