Does the vacuum attachment clean with the hot water too?

Finally found this:

*SmartTemp heats the cleaning solution for carpet and hard floor application only. It does not heat solution sprayed through the accessory tools.

While not this exact model, I’ve had a couple Bissell carpet cleaners over several years. The first was an upright similar to this, and it worked well except the hand tool quit spraying the cleaner after a year, or so. For me that wasn’t a big deal as I mostly used it to suction water and cleaner along the baseboards. I eventually bought a larger Bissell because my upright used an internal bladder to hold the clean water that was OK, but I was tired of cleaning dirt from around it. My new Bissell does a good job.

These are not deep cleaners, however. They do get up a lot of dirt and pet hair that my vacuum simply can’t get too in the carpet, but I don’t think that they compare to a professional carpet cleaner.

I have had two carpet shapooers over the years. A canister style Bissel (with a motor and bucket on wheels separate from the shampoo wand) and a Bissel all-in-one like this one (different model, same basic design). I much preferred my old canister model. Here are a list of problems I have seen with our upright that never were a problem on the other style.

  • The clean water, dirty water, and soap containers are all small. I have to refill/empty them multiple times even for a small to moderate cleaning job.

  • Emptying the dirty water is awkward. The bucket is an odd shape and somewhat of a pain to get off and on without spilling. It does have a corner spout that helps with the pour.

  • The ‘heating’ feature is, I think, a gimmick. You still have to fill it with hot water, so what is the on-board heater really doing?

  • I find the scrubbing brushes leave wet soggy ‘fluff’ on my carpet. I have to vacuum over the area I just cleaned with a wet/dry vacuum to pick up the fluff.

  • It drips/leaks when turned off. You need to get it off the clean carpet quickly or else it leaves a dirty wet spot. I put ours on a towel in the bathroom or else a puddle forms.
