Definitely check out Vacuum Wars. Very scientific testing methods. Some examples: they rub 100 grams of sand into a medium pile carpet and then vacuum for a set amount of time and then weigh the dust bin (zeroed at empty) to see how much it picked up. They will test different machines by using the same solution, making the same amount of passes, over stains that they measured. Like they’ll put 3oz of juice using a circular mold onto the carpet and let it sit for a few hours. They have tests to see how well sealed and filtered a vac is. Or how quickly a brush spins. They have area tracking to see where robot vacs go. I love love this video, but vacuum wars is great too if you’re looking for good reviews.
15 years on TH-cam, I’ve always watched videos without commenting on any but would love to read other peoples comments hoping someone commented what I thought because I wouldn’t comment myself . All this to say that this is probably my first genuine comment because of how impressed I was from this review. I got all the tests from each machine and more without anything that I would find annoying or left out. I thought that while searching on TH-cam for a review after the lack of on tik tok that I wouldn’t be and to find exactly what I was looking for but I am truly impressed and wish more people could review like you, or if you could review everything I would ever search for, whichever works best lol
I have the little green machine pet delux and I love it. Works great on soft and hard surfaces. Had it for a long time and it works so well I haven't even thought of buying a new machine. With that said if I had to buy a new one, your vid is a great help.👍
I'm so glad I did buy this little green machine pet one, and Thank you for all the pros and cons on all the cleaning machines. I also scared for a minute.
I have the little green machine premier. I'm returning it to costco tomorrow. I bought the little green machine and will keep it for my spot cleanings. Thinking of getting the pro. Thanks for this cool video.
I went with the Kenmore spot cleaner cheaper, great reviews and more sensible features that make it easier to clean. Idk why Bissell just doesn't focus on 3 machines for all lines, budget, mid, and expensive. They have so many different models that are basically the same. 😅
I’m looking to buy one of these machines, but my question would be which one do you recommend based on price and how well they work, for a sofa in which my dog had pee on?
Gosh I remember as a child using the OG little green. I’m showing my age lol. I remember it was a big machine, green body and grey hose. The solution tank was a square bottle with cap that had a long tube and take out the bottle, fill it up, put the cap on with the tube coming out the top and you drop it upside down inside the machine. The dirty water “tank” was a rectangular tray that slid out. It filled from the top right and had a little foam sponge thing that just layed there to “filter”, it always got tangled with hair and frequently used without or lost it. I think my favorite “little green” was released around 2002 it had a squeegee to clean windows and a power hand tool. That one had a green body and two tanks in front side by side, white tanks.
Also my issue with the hydrosteam little green is the tool keeps falling off 😫 I got the hydrosteam version a few days ago and I tried it one time so far and the tools fall off easy I have noticed. I still want the full size hydrosteam upright, I love the revolution and can’t wait to have steam in that use!
That’s a lot of foaming in the carpet for the spot clean test, maybe it’s been used quite a bit? Consider cleaning with just water to rinse the excess soap out. Excellent objective review, well done!
The main takeaway for me is that the best one is $100 more than the rest. At this point I would probaby get a full machine so I could easily clean the hole carpet
Hi! The full machines will not be as effective as a spot cleaner because the suction power will not be the same. The bissell hydrosteam spot cleaner has steam... Getting a floor model bissell hydrsteam floor cleaner does not have steam. Even comparing the revolution to the spotclean pro will show they are not the same effectiveness... Great idea for a video too!
Awesome videos! Helped me make my decision between the spotclean pet pro and the hydrosteam! I have a question though, do the same attachments work on all of them? I am thinking of getting the stain trapper that comes with the pet pro but not sure if it works with the hydrosteam mode. Thank you!
Which one did you end up buying? im in the same spot as you were. I was about to buy the pet pro but I saw this review and now im thinking on getting the hydrosteam.
I ended up getting the hydrosteam. Im pretty happy with it. I don’t have anything to compare to but I get both options with it and the attachments were good and I got the pet solutions too.
I own the Little Green, and I don't worry about it heating water because I use hot water from the tap. I also add a little Dawn to the Bissell solution.
By chance, do you know the differences between Bissells new Little Green Pet Pro (Model # 3909B) and the older version (Model # 2505Y). The website lacks the details of the new units and it seems no one has reviewed it yet. Was gonna buy the older version but just realized they released a new one.. not sure if it's better or not.
Thank you for a thorough and easy to follow review. It was incredibly helpful. One question I had though, do any of the models’ brush heads come apart for cleaning? My LGM ProHeat would suck up a lot of hair that clogged the head and it would be fabulous to be able to open that and clean it out.
You really helped me thank you. I was discouraged about buying the steam one because someone said the steam is weak, almost cold and in general the suction is too weak. Can you disconfirm?
Do you think the upright carpet cleaner have a better suction when used with the upholstery attachment? Or the portable carpet cleaners have a better suction?
I have the little green, I just hate the design bc it’s impossible to clean the tanks and the wand head. I’m interested in upgrading to the hydrosteam!
Did I miss what the spot trapper attachment does on the purple one? Trying to decide between it and the blue one. Did I understand correctly that the purple and blue are the same, just different attachment?
Anyone else have a problem with the little green machine leaking from the bottom? I got the little green premiere new out of the box, tanks were not over filled, and while using it, the cleaner leaked from bottom where the fan/exhaust is. Like the water is getting inside the machine and being blown down through the bottom. I’ve read some reviews and it seems like others have this same problem but no solution offered
Hi! Thanks for watching. I was showcasing all the different bissells one by one at the end. The Hydrosteam is the winner for me because of the steam and overall features but for others, the pro models will still be better because of larger tanks or cords
@@TheFrenchGlow thank you for the response! Good to know. I’ve got the commercial one but honestly the little brush head would have suited my needs better I think.
Wait which won? Because towards the end you're showing off everything again and the name green hydro doesn't match the name you used when introducing them at th beginning of the video.
HI! Best is Spotclean PRO/Little Green Pro for cars. You need the larger tank and suction power UNLESS you have lots of food in the car. Then hydrosteam will beat all of them just because of the steam unless you are using commercial cleaning solution.
@@TheFrenchGlowGreat video. Do you know which machine will work best for new/older urine stains. Have older tiny dog that makes oppies stains. Is the hydrostream that better???? Little confused at the end? Not able to spend alot. Thank you for your help. 😊 PS: Start looking at your Hydrostream video, and it had me thinking. I would be using this to clean her other messes too. If she happens to vomit, clean messes from her food bowl, etc... I use a carpet cleaner now, that takes alot out of me to keep emptying(6/8×) and takes many hours to dry, but works great. Looking for something easier since I have an injury now and it's alot dealing with an upright carpet cleaner. Hope this helps. More info. always helps me. 😃
I just bought the little green hydrosteam but mine doesnt have pet on it? Are they the same or is there any differences between mine and the pet version?
They have wet vac mops and those are excellent. They’re just like ultra light vacs in terms of size, but they’re very helpful for getting an excellent clean. Basically the same as this but instead of using your hands and attachments you’re just using it like a vac.
What happened to the original green machine that had the suction right on the machine that was almost as wide as the machine & without that small hose attachment? Would be so much easier to clean up a pet mess.
15 sec in and i found a non BS review..awesome man!!

hi! thanks for sharing. It's hard to decide until you decide.
The hydro steam has little wheels (at least in Europe), it makes it suuuuper easy to work with
I went with the Kenmore spot cleaner cheaper, great reviews and more sensible features that make it easier to clean. Idk why Bissell just doesn't focus on 3 machines for all lines, budget, mid, and expensive. They have so many different models that are basically the same. 😅
FANTASTICI VIDEO! thanks man!
Thank you! I was trying to decide which to buy, and thanks to your review, I chose the little green machine :) love the power!

Thank you! and yes, Rinsing afterwards is a great tip to get excess soap out.
Thank you for a really helpful and insightful review!
Great video. Been wanting an extractor for awhile but wasn’t sure which to pick. This will help

According to vacuumwars the hydrosteam is not better fyi. The cheaper spotclean pet pro is the winner
which is better for car detailing?
All of them are good for detailing the thing is the time you are going to take with each one
The Hydrosteam is way to unreliable so I stuck with the SpotClean Pro
@@jonaamtb3144In what way is it unreliable please?
@jonaamtb3144 why is the hydrosteam unreliable? Have you used it before, bad experience?
I think they just made the same shit in different ways to make more money by giving us a "choice" 😅
Omg exactly!! Even the same model has like 3 or 4 different versions just by adding some random words at the end!! I am extremely confused
Not a helpful note.
Yup
Such an amazing review! I was about to buy the wrong machine for my use case. Thank you!
Awesome videos! Helped me make my decision between the spotclean pet pro and the hydrosteam! I have a question though, do the same attachments work on all of them? I am thinking of getting the stain trapper that comes with the pet pro but not sure if it works with the hydrosteam mode. Thank you!

Thanks for the awesome product review! It is very indepth!
Do you know if the new little green 3369 is as good as that older light green version?
Very informative, thank you!

The proheat doèsn't heat water. It just maintains the temp of the hot tap water you start with.
which is the best? but portable (cordless) for car seats

Me here, after several time uses. I believe it’s quality issues. 😢
Your favourite one I cant see online anywhere of how to purchase. why is that? The little green Hydrosteam
if you are from australia it isnt due out here till late october
I have a pro and its good but very noisy. I have to wear ear defenders. That doesn't often get mentioned
That's the sound of power... 5.7 amp
Thank you for sharing this
You say the hydrosteam is the winner while showing a different machine in the last section?
Hi! Thanks for watching. I was showcasing all the different bissells one by one at the end. The Hydrosteam is the winner for me because of the steam and overall features but for others, the pro models will still be better because of larger tanks or cords
@@TheFrenchGlowwhy cant I find any retailer selling it though? it seems a mystery
@@Mashalalanazi123target is going to have them
i want to by it, but where?...@@TheFrenchGlow
@@Mashalalanazi123best buy has it...I'm gonna buy it tomorrow and see how it cleans my car seats
Thanks for the helpful video
Thanks for watching!
Question. Which has the better suction, the pro or the hydrasteam? Or are they the same?
I need a damn spread sheet on these stats 😂😂
You should have poured beer , a 7 11 red slurpee stain and coffee
You are best!
So after all that you didn't show the results when dry?
Wish I could find a review of the Little Green Pro Commercial cleaner.
Hi! Not a big difference from the little green spot pro except for a large attachment brush.
@@TheFrenchGlow thank you for the response! Good to know. I’ve got the commercial one but honestly the little brush head would have suited my needs better I think.
now everythings name is PRO PRO PRO
Wait which won? Because towards the end you're showing off everything again and the name green hydro doesn't match the name you used when introducing them at th beginning of the video.
I think he meant to say hydrosteam is the winner but showcasing all different machines while telling his conclusions.
Best for the seats of a car?
How about the newer max pet? Thanks!
The only difference is the stain trapper attachments and some cosmetic changes compared to their non pet editions.
Thanks!
The hose on mine split after 2yrs.
How can one use their own carpet cleaning solution that comes in a spray bottle?
What is the best to get for car cleaning? Thanks
HI! Best is Spotclean PRO/Little Green Pro for cars. You need the larger tank and suction power UNLESS you have lots of food in the car. Then hydrosteam will beat all of them just because of the steam unless you are using commercial cleaning solution.
@@TheFrenchGlow is spot clean pet pro the same as spot clean pro? Because thats £50 cheaper
Hello, has the hydro come out yet?
Hi! Yes it has. Here's my review. th-cam.com/video/92BLiH0Oqz0/w-d-xo.html

Did I miss something? Which one was your recommendation?
I just bought the little green hydrosteam but mine doesnt have pet on it? Are they the same or is there any differences between mine and the pet version?
They pet versions are the exact same they just come with the pet accessory rather than the normal attachments, you can buy them all separately.
Hi. Just want to check. If the steamer version can be used on matrresses?
yes
great 🥰
for a moment i thought you actually peed on the carpet cause you didnt showed when you dropped the orange juice xD
Are there machines like this for hard surfaces? Would any of these work for that?
That's called a mop.
They have wet vac mops and those are excellent. They’re just like ultra light vacs in terms of size, but they’re very helpful for getting an excellent clean. Basically the same as this but instead of using your hands and attachments you’re just using it like a vac.
