Day 11 of the quarantine: I’ve just watched an entire video about vacuum cleaners. I’m 16 Day 72 of the day quarantine: I’ve watched the same video again. I still haven’t bought a vacuum cleaner, but I can now levitate. Day 186 of the quarantine: I’ve watched this video again for some reason, but this time, I’m motivated to buy a vacuum cleaner, hence I shall now go and buy a vacuum cleaner. The final day of the year: I ended up buying a vacuum for my house a few months ago, it’s a dyson. It’s been pretty great thus far, very powerful and reliable. I am no longer 16 and I am 17 now. I’ll continue to update this for a long time. Update July 26th, 2021 I began this when I was a junior in high school and now in 18 days I’ll be moving into my college dorm. The dyson that I bought has served me well and will continue to serve me well as I take it with me to college. I’ll will update this when I turn 18. March 7th, 2022 It’s been around 3 months since I’ve turned 18, sorry for not updating it on time, I sort of forgot about this comment. This is my second semester at college and I’m trying to keep up. The Dyson has indeed served me well, even on the fake wooden floors I have in my dorm. The next time I’ll update this video is when I turn 21. See you guys in three years :).

Thoroughly impressed with your test setup, metrics, analysis and production quality - Consumer Reports should pay you for content!

[@do_regan]

Don't worry, the manufacturers are likely already paying him to produce the content (just like all the mattress companies/etc do with online influencers).

[@marikiemarie7622]

Well...my friends dad was paid greatly by a car detailer company.... he would post videos comparing 10 others and he was to always show that the brands he was paid by was better. He was just an average Joe to others so it worked but he eventually stopped because that brand was extremely bad.. lol even though he was being paid pretty well.

[@at-pm3cb]

I'm really glad that he isn't biased based on who sponsors him best

[@josepioquinto2472]

Agreed

[@DayumQuitPlayin]

Well, I’d agree 100% had he gone back and fixed his user error with the Big Green rather than disqualify it and continue with the testing. I’m saying this only because you’re comparing his content to Consumer Reports.

[@taylorhammers6301]

This is exactly what every homeowner/renter needs in a video! Honest, quick and exact. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

[@lizzfrmhon]

I love that he’s so methodical, thorough and unbiased.

[@VacuumWars]

Hey, thanks so much.

[@christmasina]

This is great info. For me the biggest thing for me is durability. The smaller ones work great at first, but the hoses and parts get gunned up and break after a year. The rug dr has outlasted any cleaner I have ever owned, and is much easier to troubleshot and clean out than the other cleaners on the market. For reference, I use mine monthly at least, and do regular maintenance and cleaning out the machine.

[@BradStone-1]

After weeks of research, this video is the most complete and concise comparison of carpet cleaners that I have found. Well done.

[@jacqueline143]

I’m definitely going with the cheap Hoover! I was hesitant because it’s so cheap, but I have a tiny apartment and not a lot of storage. Good to know it works well!

Appreciate the attention to the different variables that could change the results. Also, like that we didn't watch the entire process but enough information was presented to allow us to make a educated decision for our next purchase! Many thanks for a great video!

[@cheesewhiz83]

Thank you for this video!! It was going to cost almost 2 days of rental for the Rug Doctor so we just purchased the Hoover Power Dash Pet and used the recommended solution from the previous video comparison. Our carpet looks PHENOMENAL. We are so grateful for your video comparisons and really appreciate the level of detail you go into for these.

[@VacuumWars]

That is awesome! Thank you!

[@melissawarrell8821]

I wish I would’ve Googled KZbin carpet cleaning videos first before buying the Hoover Smart Wash. But I do have to say, it works so much better than any other products I’ve gotten; they’ve all been the smaller one’s, and this is the first bigger one I’ve owned in years. It’s very easy to use, and cleans the carpets with only two uses over every room. It’s very easy to take apart to clean up every nook and cranny in the machine after using! I had to watch a video on how to put it back together (a lot easier than I was making it) The tank of dirty water is absolutely disgusting, so I know it’s doing a good job, plus the color of my carpets look like they’re brand new afterwards. Hopefully my added comments will help someone make an easier decision when purchasing a new rug scrubber! 😊

[@kaliax2414]

Wow, this is awesome - thank you for this video!! I'm in the process of buying a carpet cleaner and have been reading so many reviews that I didn't know if I'd be making the right decision with the Bissell 2x Rev Pro. I feel much more confident about buying it now!

[@jimmydsimmons]

By far, best review, I seen in a long time; str8 concise and to the point, thank you!

As an East Tennessee dog owner I SO appreciate that you used red clay for your test.

[@justinbailey6515]

We need to see a test for cleaning carpets victimized by a cat. An angry cat. A cat seeking vengeance. No, don't ask me why...

[@randomvids5883]

get a Bissell pro heat 2X revolution pet pro. I have one and it gets up literally all the stains except you might wanna try using the clean shot feature on it.

[@Joselyn112492]

Yes please. We have the bisell cleaned. The purple one and we live in a renter home that had a very strong cat urine smell. Apparently it had been professionally cleaned before we moved in but it still smelled. And it has a faint smell but we don’t want our clothes to smell like cat urine.

[@X23foreverhellion]

The vacuum doesn’t matter much unless it’s a poop stain, what matters is that you get a high quality enzyme cleaner.

[@gaylestevenson1877]

Justin, Vinegar gets out cat smell and Ammonia gets out stains. They can't be used together because they will negate each other. The Vinegar does work for the stink.

[@demekonrn]

So what's really going on with this cat🤔.

I have the Hoover powerdash and it is pretty awesome, gets every stain up that I’ve tried it on, only downside is the tank, for one regular sized room I have to fill the tank 3-4 times and empty the dirty water mid-clean.

[@alann5003]

What I also like about my 2x pet pro is the top parts above the rollers just pop off making cleaning the rollers easy. To me, worth the extra price.

[@4seeableTV]

Why did you buy it if you didn't want to use it?

[@rgriffith6476]

You commented on the dryness-Yesterday I shampooed my carpets using my moms Powerdash. I knew it was most likely the cheapest thing she could find, but even without researching or anything I could tell it was doing quite a good job. Suction is CRAZY good... I accidentally added rubbing alcohol instead of vinegar to the cleaning solution (I always add some white vinegar) and didn't catch my mistake until putting everything away... The carpets were all dried within 30 minutes and the alcohol did NOT hurt the carpet. Side note-I really wanted to 'touch up' my sofa, and was disappointed that I couldnt do that with the powerdash.

[@wendlingk2702]

I have the power dash and although it is annoying to have to refill the small solution tank, I am very pleased with its cleaning ability. It extracted SO much dirt to a satisfying degree

[@tweety1152]

I too love the Dash..wish it had attachments

[@JohnFontenot1]

I just used the Bissell Proheat 2X I bought on Amazon using your referral link. Thank you so much for the excellent recommendation.

I almost trow away my Bissel proheat 2x before trying it. Because rental have been my choice. Am glad I watched your video. Thanks 😊.

[@MrDavonwalker]

This is exactly what I was needing. I was just talking to my friend, and we were trying to figure out which carpet cleaner would be the best for me. A rule of thumb that I always go by is "buy the one that's the prettiest". Surprisingly the one I like style wise; performed the best in your test! Lol

[@jarek0737]

As far as detergent the most cost effective thing i have found is Zep Premium carpet shampoo.. Home Depot or Lowes typically carries it.. I would love to see you compare it.

[@KiraSlith]

I bought a Bissel ProHeat 2x last month on the previous years's review, the included samples kinda suck at getting up dirt but hearing it was the best in last year's end-of-year too tells me it's the soap I'm using. Thanks for these videos!

I would love to see which has the most powerful suction! I’m on my third cleaner this year and so far, the suction on my little one gallon shop vac has put the rest to shame!

[@randomvids5883]

Dude you deserve more subscribers!

[@RyanRCRacing]

Engineer here, that was incredibly well done. The way you took opinion and Brand bias and threw them out of the window truly made me feel like I know the facts at the end. Can you buy a rug doctor? I don’t even really need to buy a carpet cleaner vacuum, but dang that was so well done.

[@aphyngodiva2551]

Thank you for this! We bought our last vacuum based on your review and were blown away with its performance (we got a Shark Navigator), I'm back here checking again for a new steam cleaner since our Bissell ProHeat Pet seems to be kicking the bucket, it isn't mixing the solution with the water so it's only spraying water, it's old enough that I'm not interested in repairing it so we're just getting a new one, it's 4 or 5 years old. We think it is probably the tube that passes the water through the water heater that is clogged, as everything else is working as it should. Thinking we'll go ahead and get the new ProHeat, though I'm worried about further clogging issues, it is still looking like it will be the better bet out of all of them. Might get the Hoover Power Dash instead because we only have our bedroom that is carpeted and then two rugs in the living room, buuuut idk, still thinking about it!

[@nikkibasmr]

Good review. Suggested amounts in the ones with separate water and detergent tanks would have been more accurate. I previously had a proheat and it broke way too quickly for the price. I currently have a power Scrub and it's been by far the best cleaner I have owned...but the power dash is a nice surprise.

[@carsanovadidrifto800]

Hey I hope that you are well. Think about this. The God of the Bible, the One True God made You and I to worship him, obey Him, and enjoy Him forever. But You and I break His laws daily. You, like me, are not good at all in the eyes of God. ‘There is no one good, no not even one. (Romans3:10) ‘For all have sinned and fall short of The Glory of God’ (Romans 3:23) You have always done wrong in the eyes of God, this is a problem because Psalm 5:5 reads: ‘...You [GOD] hate all who do wrong.’ ‘But because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of God’s wrath, when his righteous judgment will be revealed.’ Rom 5:5 The person who sins is the one who will die. Ezekiel 18:20 All these things and more are counted against us. God is the just judge of the world and one day He will judge you, and you are guilty. He will settle the score for all the wrongs you've done. God is holy meaning He is righteous (morally perfect in thought, word, and deed) It also means He is set apart and infinitely higher than us. God will punish You for all Your sin or wrongdoing in the world, this is because He is Good and Just Judge. This means that if You sin ONCE, God will cast you in hell for eternity. Because He is good and He doesn't turn a blind eye to sin. So how can God forgive you and me of all our sins? But there is good news. 2000 years ago Jesus the Son of God came into this world and lived a perfect life ( He never sinned once) and He died on the cross taking the wrath that we deserve and paid the penalty for the sins we committed. The bible says that if you will repent (confess and forsake your sins) and trust in what Christ did on the cross OUT OF HIS LOVE FOR YOU-(He took the wrath of God against you for your evil deeds and thoughts). Then all your sins will be forgiven and when you die you will be in heaven with God and all who have believed in The Gospel of Jesus Christ. This is the true Gospel of Jesus: Jesus died( Bore the punishment for your evil sins and heart, so that you can be forgiven. He took your special spot in Hell) and on the third day, He rose from the grave(So that you can have true life and His spot next to The only true God.). Verses: ‘All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by ChristJesus.’ Rom3:24; 'Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.' John 3:18 Get right with God today, don't wait. Once you die after that comes the judgment. It's the most important thing you can do. If you repent and trust in what Christ did on the cross for You then you will be born again. Right now you're dead in your sins and you can't see the beauty of Jesus Christ but after you trust in Christ all the things you hate about God like obeying him, serving Him, loving Him and others, reading the bible, praying, and going to church, you will love to do those things because God changes your heart. That's how you know you have been born again and forgiven. Please think long about this, and most importantly please take at least 5 minutes a day to read the Bible. Start in 'Matthew'. An eternity in hell (darkness and a lake of fire the bible describes it, with weeping and gnashing of teeth) or an eternity in the loving arms of God who is infinitely glorious, has infinite knowledge and has infinite power and love to do all that He pleases. You decide. Truth is independent of human conviction, meaning that what you believe does not change the fact that Jesus is your only Hope

[@Dan-rp8gb]

The Bissell Proheat 2X petpro is the best shampooer I've used to date. With pets and shoes on my area rugs, it does amazing lifting the dirt. The attachments work "ok" on my upholstered sofa and car interior. Suction on the attachments could be better but overall the machine is amazing. I do suggest taking it apart to clean after a few uses so it will continue to work properly

Love my 15-year-old Hoover Spin Scrub Dual V. Cleans very very well. Despite two kids and various pets, it hasn't met a stain it could not conquer. At one point it started leaking when I'd go clean. I figured out that one of the reservoirs was cracked, I think the bottom one. I had to pay $40 to get a new one but feel that's worth it.

I think he forgot to lower the handle. It won't engage the brush unless you do, so it wasn't scrubbing.

[@ACitizenOfOurWorld]

2:25 All you have to do to make sure that machine uses the same ratio of water to detergent as the others tested is to put the same pre-mixed solution into both the "water" and "detergent" tanks. Then it doesn't matter how the machine mixes the two.

[@BLKSG6]

ACitizenOfOurWorld ... unless doing so causes the machine to release more solution into the carpet, than it normally would. If it expected a thicker liquid in the detergent tank, a more watery solution might pour out faster than expected. Although most carpet detergents aren’t very viscous like dish detergent, so maybe this wouldn’t have an impact. Great insight, though.

[@zbigniewsperka7469]

Yeah! More dertergent = more foam 😮😳

A suggestion for your future tests to measure dryness...you could measure/compare the amount of water dispensed vs. the amount in the recovery tank to see how much water is left in the carpet

[@joshymcdaniel9233]

this is far more important than what it puts “down” as far as water’ if u don’t suck up the dirt and water then obviously there’s lots of wet dirty water still there thus your carpet isnt clean’ these need 2 3x more suction then they would be worth it

[@pennmccullough6359]

Or at least put a fresh paper towel down and stand on it for several seconds for each patch. That will press out moisture more reliably, and is more consistent (same body weight) than pressing a palm on the towel.

[@ward26102]

Next time try the old skool hand method, see how it compares in time and effectiveness. A scrub brush and your top cleaning soap. Wet pick up is done with a shop vac. That's how we do small stains because we don't own one of these machines and don't rent one unless it's time to do the whole house.

[@ktcoll]

I just recently rented a carpet cleaner (Rug Dr) and than saw your video. So i went out bought the Bissell Proheat 2x Revolution Pet Pro because of your review. It happened to be on sale for $299.99 (reg $599.99 CDN) so I'm excited to use it :) Thanks for such a thorough review!

[@teacfan1080]

I have a Hoover smart wash. I try to do the carpets often enough so there can't be enough time to build up stains in the carpet. It does a good job, no complaints.

[@charlesandtabathabaugh548]

The Hoover smart wash is an amazing carpet cleaner it sucks up the same amount of water it puts down, it is easy to clean and fill and easy to use. As the marketing says it’s as easy as vacuuming. BUT and this is where my heart breaks....I bought my machine in June and have had FIVE replacements and ultimately a refund. The belt on for the spin brushes either breaks or comes off and the brushes do not spin anymore. This happens generally about a month after use....I have two dogs and four kids and and carpet clean two area rugs about two-three times a month. I love this carpet cleaner for the way it cleans and the dry time but as many times as I’ve had to replace it is ridiculous. Also from reading several reviews on several other merchant websites it is a common issue

[@MarcusThe894]

2:51 Hello. The Reason The Bissell Turbo Malfunctioned, Is Because It Was Cheaply Made With Little High Quality. Given Your Reason, I Think It May Be You Might Need To Replace A Part Of It. And Also, About The Bissell Big Green Error. The Back Position Is To Seal The Tank. Unlike The Others, You Forgot To Put It In The Sealed Position. So, You Should Check The Water Tank. The Dirty One.

[@xdrajiv]

Most product videos on youtube are either promoted or shitty ads put together just to get views. Really appreciate the effort put into this

[@VacuumWars]

Thank you - that means a lot.

[@PatriotTwin]

Really appreciate the videos. Wish all products had well-designed testing/reviews on KZbin. That said, i can't recommend the Bissell Pet Pro at all. Bought it 5 months ago (after watching this video), and on 3rd use, the clear plastic cover on front popped off and would not re-attach. And the upholstery attachment stopped working (no spray). It is cheaply built. Maybe if you never use the upholstery attachment, but that is 50% of the use it gets around here. UPDATE: Bissell sent me a replacement part bec the upholstery attachment would not stay attached. The new part worked. Great! I cleaned 4 dining room chairs. The following week, went to clean a recliner, and this time the suction stopped working. After 3 rounds of turning the vac off, re-attaching the upholstery tool and re-seating both tanks, STILL no suction whatsoever. Have had the vac 10 mos. Used 4x. worked 2x. Did not work the other 2x. So calling bissell AGAIN tomorrow. Just NO to the Bissell Pet Pro.

[@RatingARKReviews]

Hello! This is a great video and it is very informative! I also recommend Hoover Smartwash Carpet Cleaner FH52000.

[@randyz3281]

It would be nice if you reviewed the bearings for the brush rollers. My family has had several of these machines. Over the years we had a few of the Bissell Pro Heat models. On all of them, the first thing to fail was the cheap plastic bearings the rollers use. They melt down and eventually fail and the brushes fall right out. It would nice if companies went back to more professional grade bearings.

[@joey89xx]

How did you remedy this?

Wow, the tester was actually a non biased. Well that's new for me. Good job 👍

[@hw534]

What a service you provide to us! Thank you!

[@VacuumWars]

Wow thank you!

[@andyboypable]

I would really love if you could retest the big green, either with the group or in comparison to the proheat. It's hard to make a decision when your recommended vacuum isn't tested properly.

[@PatriotTwin]

i don't recommend bissell at all at this point. have the Big Green, used it in one house for 2 yrs, then it started leaking. warranty had expired. leaking slowly increased, then motor started making clunking noises and then electrical burning smell. had it for several years, but considering the amount of use it got in one house, should have lasted longer.

[@SinXJon]

@@PatriotTwin Are you removing the hairs/stuff from the brushes? Not cleaning that part would do that eventually, as the brushes can't move freely and it will burn the motor. There's a reason why big companies rent them, they last long. Also, I can't say I've owned mine as long as yours it's only been a year now, but I always take good care of it and I would be very surprised if it stops working next year.

[@PatriotTwin]

@@SinXJon brushes are fine. This isn't user error. Leaking should not happen. Not like it has. Perhaps your long term personal experience with bissell products will be different. I doubt it.

[@SinXJon]

@@PatriotTwin I'm not worried at all. Again, big companies rent them for a reason and also you're one of very few people who have problems with the machine. In another post you mention you were a owner of a Bissell Pet Pro and that one had problems with the upholstery and a whole different set of problems. Sounds like it is a user problem to me when machines keep breaking but other people have great reviews on it.. or you could just be very unlucky. Doubt it tho. Moving on, have a nice day.

[@beast36001]

@@PatriotTwin sound like you dont know what your doing, bissel owner here bought mine new, did whole house 3x in 1yr, leaking? your vague, were? could be a fluke, but if you bought it new i doubt it

[@mw7882]

Oh I thought this was going to be a video about the cleaning solution. 😂. Can you do a video about that? For instance does the Oxy cleaner discolor rugs?

[@Eamazon12]

I spoke to someone that works at Walmart and he said that he tried primarily all of the different cleaners. He said they pretty much all work the same you just want to make sure that you get the concentrate version.

By far the best review and style... all in a line showing their results and easy for a customer to pick from one.... All these companies MUST pay you for your content... contact them and see what they say... you most likely will get rewarded... Thanks for the great content....

I appreciate that! I think I like being autonomous. It suits me. Thank you.

You should review the bissel crosswave cordless max. I'm so curious if it is worth the money.

Thanks!

I didn't think a review could suck as much as this one, and that's a compliment.

[@sneez1e_717]

Hey Chris, just a little sidenote. In my house I have a different style carpet cleaner from Karcher and it works different, as a nossel wet vacuum (Not an upright). I think it works somewhat good and maybe you can/could or maybe even will use it in a different video.. anyways.. good video!

[@yourtube540]

That's more of a professional use machine, he's using the machines geared toward homeowners. How much did you pay for your machine?

[@sneez1e_717]

@@yourtube540 I didn't buy it. I'm still a youngster. I reallly don't know the exact price for it. it's old as hecc aswell.. soo.. yeah.. also thanks for explaining the use! Highly appriciated.

[@jenniferfields5947]

I always use the big green and it has been the one that has worked every time. Will always rent that one.

[@BigOldCarChannel]

I had great results with the one i rented. Now I'm gonna buy a machine because someone i know it's selling one (an unneeded gift) for about what i would pay in a rental fee!

[@melindavanscoy9828]

Just purchased the Bissell Proheat2x Revolution and very happy with the results. I made a good choice!

[@SF-ku2hp]

I got a Hoover power dash it cleaned my carpets really well almost wanted to puke seeing the water. I do have a small townhouse so it’s water tank was adequate. Well worth the 100$

[@markiaj3462]

Steve Frank did it leak? I just mine once and it seems to clean well but afterwards the dirty water starting leaking.

[@SF-ku2hp]

@@markiaj3462 Nope mine hasn't leaked a bit since I have owned it. I would maybe check all the seals around any places where pieces or tanks connect.

[@markiaj3462]

Steven Frank Thanks for the reply! Okay I’ll check next time I use it. If it doesn’t work I’ll exchange it for another one. It really cleans well and it’s so easy so I love that part of it.

[@GMoney-B]

Markia J I just got one and used it tonight. Fantastic for the price, size, etc. I noticed it leaking, however it was because it started getting close to the full line in the black water reservoir, and I tilted the vacuum to wheel it somewhere else. You HAVE to be mindful of the water line and the filter vents on the left of the reservoir. If you tilt the vacuum to wheel it places, don’t tilt too much or it will come out of the filter vents on the left of the clear front. I also noticed when it got to the full line or close to; it was sputtering out the vent a little, not much but a small amount. Other than that I didn’t have any issues really. Be sure to empty out the reservoir when finished and rinse, this will prevent any possible leaking. Don’t forget to remove the water/solution tank so it can’t drip down. One last tip is to take out both reservoirs, and tilt the vacuum forward; then hold the trigger down to let the liquid run out of the tubes so it stays clean and not mildewy.

[@X23foreverhellion]

How long have you had it for? I got the cheap bissell one thats in its video and it had like no suction after a couple of uses.

[@votezoidberg2020]

How does the winner stack up to a professional service like Stanley steamer?

nothing beats a professional service.

@@Zack-dk3pt True. But for most people, these cleaners shown will do a fine job and help people save a lot of money.

I purchased the overall Bissell Proheat 2x from Bissel yesterday. I was trying to rent a carpet cleaner but, could not find any rental due to the Covid-19 virus. I decided to gather information and found your channel and decided to buy this cleaner. I was thinking about buy the larger Bissell carpet cleaner but, this unit did not do as well as this carpet cleaner.
