BISSELL - Revolution Hydrosteam Pet Corded Upright Deep Cleaner - Titanium/Copper Harbor

I have a 20+ yr old pro heat X's 2 bissell that was definitely a heavier machine. It cleaned but you'd have to disassemble to clean but carpets were pretty dry. My new evolution pet machine which also has the steam like the pro heat X2 but is much lighter machine. People complain about wet carpets on the steam/clean option vs Dry or no steam. Gotta be honest want clean carpets use the steam option as dry doesn't dispense any real solution which is why your carpets will be pretty dry. The minor issue is the front of the machine is extremely very light so that suction isn't nearly as good as my 20 yr old pro heat X2 My first clean carpet are definitely a lot cleaner with 20 yr old carpet almost like new!! But it was left wet. I always water rinse and I then reached open with my hand and pushed forward I noticed a lot more water extraction. The machine definitely extracts better in the forward position vs back and by pushing down on the front of the machine my carpets are as dry as the old pro heat. I may look into devising some sort of weight to add so I won't have to bend over or use my foot. Other positives. WAY EASIER TO CLEAN i bought the whole package that tray is worth it. Doesn't hold a lot of dirty water but its way easier to use and dump. Picks up hair but doesn't clog and so easy to just wipe away. Brushes are so easy to clean and the cleaning tray works awesome. My machine is extremely very clean after my first cleaning. Carpets are amazingly a lot cleaner! Worth every penny!!
