Tools and Hardware Reviews of BISSELL Quicksteamer Powerbrush Lightweight Upright Deep Carpet Cleaner, 2080
Customer Review: Quick, PowerBrush, LightWeight, DeepClean, the name says it ALL!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had Bissell quicksteamer the older model(white/blue) for couple of years and it worked good. After reading the reviews, I bought this 2080. It was delivered right to my door within 3 days!
Okay here's what I know about this machine. It works as good as expected. I've seen people complain about the water tank being too small, but it worked good for me coz it assures water to stay hot. I have 2 kittens who peed on the carpet when I tried a different brand cat litter. So I just poured half gallon hot water right on the spot(i didn't use their water tank coz it only sprays) and then use this steamer to suck it up. After I repeated 3 times, the carpet doesn't smell anymore! If I steam clean the whole room it'd take less than 2 hours to be completely dried which is not bad at all. I believe that the time also depends on the room temperature. The only thing I dont like is the noise level. Mine suddenly got louder for some reason but it didn't lessen the function.
Customer Review: Does the Job
Summary: 4 Stars
Easy to assemble and operate, lightweight, and effective. I've given 4 stars because I'm not sure how it would work on a large surface area and because of the obvious cheapness of the plastic materials. Also, I noticed that it was difficult to thoroughly and totally remove the rug particles that were lodged inside the water tank and the machine itself. I got 95%, but it should be 100%, because over time that gunk just adds up. Having said that, it was very easy to use and picked up a shocking amount of dirt from a very neglected carpet. Even with vacuuming first, the cleaning water was black when I finished cleaning the carpet, and I'm sure if I go over the carpet again a lot more dirt will come out. The cleaning fluid used in the process has a very pleasant smell, too. For my purposes, it's fine, although I'm not sure about its durability over the long term, given the flimsy materials. But I suppose if you need lightweight, there's no substitute for plastic...Customer Review: Light weight and not especially powerful..
Summary: 4 Stars
but,for the price, it rated 4 stars for me. So far, no leaking issues and the brush bar does rotate, as long as the front piece that holds the sucked up dirty liquid is replaced properly. If it is not, it leaks like a sieve and there is next to no suction. Regarding the time it takes for the carpet to dry, it really is not bad, if you just move slowly and give the machine a chance to suck up the liquid. If you move fast, much is left behind and it takes extra long to dry. Expect dissapointment if you want to get your whole house done in a day. The brush head is small and the machine is not very powerful, so for the cleaning to be effective you will need to take your time and make sure you get everything up. This machine is best for those without big stain problems and is best suited for those that clean their carpets with some regularity. If your carpet is trashed and really dirty, you need something bigger and more powerful (or professionals).Customer Review: Good deal for the price
Summary: 4 Stars
I'll echo what most other reviewers have written - a great, lightweight machine if you maintain your carpeting on a regular basis, or need to do a fast cleaning of fresh spills or stains. Astonishing how black the water is coming back out! It's crucial to work in small sections and move the machine slowly to suction the water back up. I go over small sections several times from different directions with just the suction on, then make a final run over the entire carpet going in one direction. It not only gets more water up, but it lifts the pile better as well. If you have pets, make certain to vacuum thoroughly before using the cleaner so you're not sucking up a lot of wet hair which is difficult to clean out. Be aware that the name is misleading - there is no steam (you use hot tap water) and the powerbrush does not rotate independently. For the price, this is a good machine if you want to keep on top of routine cleaning needs.Customer Review: Easy to handle, did a great job
Summary: 5 Stars
On some plush carpet in serious need of cleaning. We only have two carpeted rooms. I knew that if I called a cleaning company for just that much carpet I would get rooked. Why not invest in this well reviewed cleaner and have it at my beck and call? (Especially since we added a pup last summer. He's small but still drags in the dirt!)
Why not indeed. Already an EXCELLENT investment, and exactly what I expected it to be based on the customer reviews here.
It's a breeze to use, has just as much power as I would expect for a machine of this size, and did a beautiful job. What more can you ask.
I was floored by the amount of debris the power brush got up even after very thorough pre vacuuming with my Orek.
My only admonition is take your time as you go over the carpet to remove the solution. It performs much better than moving in a hurry.
Very pleased with this purchase.
