5.0 out of 5 stars Great deep cleaner for the price, May 23, 2002

By

I bought this to clean our apartment. I refused to pay for commercial cleaning services and looked at high end deep cleaners.
This one cleaned our carpets (after 1 year - several parties and lots of guests) and made it look just like the day we moved in.
This performed the job like commercial deep cleaners. I had to refill/discard the tank 4x --- as the capacity was only 1 gal. each for clean and dirty water. Well, I am very meticulous due to my allergies ... and our apartment is big.
This is relatively light, manuevarable and great value for money.
Not directly related complaint is the Bissell solutions are more expensive than others. Plus, their solutions are not as concentrated too. So, now I use a competing Hoover solution.

2.0 out of 5 stars I love it - I Hate it, December 30, 2002

Nancy S Bate (Bethlehem, CT United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bissell 1694 PowerSteamer Deluxe Upright Deep CarpetCleaner (Kitchen)

When I began using this cleaner I was very impressed with it's cleaning and ease of use. Unfortunatly within an hour, the belt broke (they shipped a replacement belt with the machine). After replacing the belt, it ran great for about 30 min. then the brush arm literally melted and rendered the machine unusable, requiring service. Now I have to deal with the hassle of replacing the part and can only hope the new part(s) will somehow not fail as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Carpet Shampooer, March 19, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Bissell 1694 PowerSteamer Deluxe Upright Deep CarpetCleaner (Kitchen)

We used this shampooer in the kids dirty bedroom and it was Fantasic. I would buy this again if need be. The Bissel cleaner is kind of costly. I did notice Wal-Mart has thier own brand. Thinking of tring it. For the money you can't beat this shampooer.
Did as or better jpob then rug doctor. Did way better then the shop vac set up from sears. In short great buy.
