Bissell ProHeat 2X Revolution Pet Pro Review and Detailed Instructions. Easy DIY carpet cleaning!

[@ashunderwood88]

This guy did his research and seems really honest. Best types of reviewers. Thumbs up!

[@itchysheets1222]

This is the best tutorial/review of this machine that I have seen yet. Well lit, detailed but concise and straight to the point. Thank you!

[@RussellPlatten]

Glad I could help! :-)

[@tabishop3]

Great review. Tells you what you need to know, demonstrates how to use all the features, getting straight to the point without wasting anyone's time. Very helpful!

[@RussellPlatten]

Thank you Tim. :-)

[@SukiKev1989]

Exactly what I needed, the dude has made things so much easier to understand - how to use the attachments & which attachment goes best for a particular area. Plus the whole bloody thing in general! This is much better than the manufacturer videos. Thank you! 👌

[@RussellPlatten]

Glad I could help! :-)

[@penningtonsm]

If only every reviewer could review a product the way you did...awesome video..i just bought mine and plan on doing my first run today...thanks a lot for the review.

[@RussellPlatten]

Cheers Steve. It is a fine machine. :-)

[@guidedmeditation2396]

The Bissell upright 2x series carpet cleaners are amazing. Surpassing the cleaning I thought you could get from a household upright. Tackling even impossible stains you would swear are hopeless. If you spray the stains a few times first and leave it a few hours so it loosens and reconstitutes it. The dual brushes and suction of the cleaner work like magic. The secret is in the emulsification of the stain substance and then suctioning it away with the foaming liquid.

[@Haj-ey1un]

Just brought one myself.... I can't wait to unbox it and try it out.... Thanks for the review!

[@Tbirdclass]

Great review. You got right to the point and didn't ramble and told us everything we needed to know.

[@RussellPlatten]

Glad it was helpful! :-)

[@brookesarkis8618]

This was an excellent review. I'd watched a few before this one, and yours was really the best. You explained everything very clearly and concisely and noted every technical detail such as making sure the unit is in standing mode before using the upholstery tool to protect carpet. Other reviewers did not make note of these details. I'm ready to use my new purchase now. Thanks so much!

[@RussellPlatten]

Glad it was helpful Brooke! :-)

[@Mom2AbbyandJack]

Thank you for such a thorough review! I purchased this exact model and was completely second-guessing myself going into using it the first time. Thanks to your step-by-step demonstration, I have successfully cleaned the various carpets and rugs in my house today. :)

Glad it was helpful Sarah! :-)

[@marianeva7116]

Thank you very much for the input on how to use this Bissell Pro Heat, I just got mine today and the assembly was simple but your video explains it better. I like the way you show the use of each attachment thanks again.

[@RussellPlatten]

Glad it helped Maria! :-)

[@gnidaerd]

Surely the best structured, most articulate and well planned demonstration I can recall seeing. Full credit to you. I have an earlier (say 10yrs old Bissell Pro Heat 2X) that works well for 10mins and then stops delivering the water, I have had it apart and cleaned so often I have lost count, it works for about 10 mins after clearing the jets and the delivery lines then clog again. = JUNK imo. Seems to me a poorly designed tool. I am keen to see if this tool new works well after repeated usage and what your maintenance routine is. Cheers

[@RussellPlatten]

So far so good. :-)

[@kylegriffiths4752]

All fairness lad, that is prob. The best review I've ever watched. Straight to point on what does what, how it works, what/know/how. Impressed not been to sure in buying 1, but seriously considering 1. Thank you 👍

Thanks for your time and effort you put into this reveiw. Do you still love it today?

[@RussellPlatten]

Yes, but I have not used it much since I cleaned all of my carpets. The way I see it, the carpet cleaner paid for itself as soon as I had washed them the first time. :-)

Can you use it dry? Like without any water/ solution like a normal vacuum?

No, it cannot be used as a normal vacuum cleaner Nada. :-)

[@nadaelraey996]

@@RussellPlatten thank you for your response! Do you mind elaborating more? I saw that you click on the button to release the liquid, so if one doesn’t click and just use it dry, would that be an issue?

[@nadaelraey996]

In other words, in order to regularly vacuuming the area, would one need a separate vacuum for that?

[@margo-pl1ww]

Great review!

[@RussellPlatten]

Thank you! :-)

[@0617kitty]

Do you still have the same carpet cleaner? Do you still like it? How many sq ft and how often do you use it? Thank you for the video! I am thinking about buying one.

[@RussellPlatten]

I do still have it, I use it occasionally and i am glad that I bought it. :-)

[@brookelenning3571]

Question: Does this machine suck the detergent up when the trigger is engaged for dispensing?

[@RussellPlatten]

The suction all takes place at the very tip of the vacuum head. You can see this in the demonstration (4:20 on the video). The solution outlet is above the two brushes and the solution is fed in between them. If you look at 1:31 on the video you can see the water outlet when I remove the first plastic cover (this is the suction assembly). The solution outlet is around 3" away from the suction. So when you are pushing the vacuum forwards, the solution is not being sucked up by the vacuum. When you are pulling it backwards it is. I hope I have explained that adequately Brooke. :-)

[@susanroman4706]

Nice review. I am in agreement that the regular upholstery tool is better than the 2 in 1 pet upholstery tool. I was hoping to actually see the spray and water extraction ability on the 2 in 1 in your video but couldn't. My 2 in 1 tool does not pull any pet hair into the collection bin although the rubber tips do collect it into a little pile. Very disappointed in the "special" tool. Spurts the water out and doesn't suction water up. Otherwise, I'm satisfied with the machine.

[@RussellPlatten]

Apologies for not showing the tools in real time Susan. I was trying to keep the length of the review down. :-)

[@susanroman4706]

@@RussellPlatten No apology needed! I understand that. Just wanted to comment on it as we "all" rely on these reviews! Great machine otherwise. Bissell is sending me a new 2 in 1 tool and I hope it makes a difference since mine suctions nothing! :D

[@RussellPlatten]

:-)

[@Sherudons]

Considering getting one, but i've seen it ripping carpet on some other peoples tests.

[@RussellPlatten]

No issues with my carpets. I would imagine the problems people are experiencing are with carpet joints as the brushes are pretty aggressive. That is one of the reasons why it cleans so well. :-)

[@Mike_Malloy]

I bought that same one. It didn't come with two of the attachments, only the pet one with the filter. I was cleaning upholstery and almost fried my power cable when it got caught under the cleaner. Apparently the brushes still spin while it's in the locked upright position so it tried to eat my power cable. Not good. It tore into it and exposed the green grounding wire.

[@RussellPlatten]

I can't understand why they don't disengage the brushes when the handle is up. :-)

[@Mike_Malloy]

@@RussellPlatten I contacted Bissell, they told me the brushes don't disengage in the upright position but have passed this incident along to their development team. I suspect for safety reasons they'll add it in future models. The brushes on my Shark dry vac do disengage when the handle is up so out of habit I assumed Bissell did too. If it tore into the 120vac line that would have been very bad.

[@RussellPlatten]

@@Mike_Malloy It was the right thing to do Mike. Could save someone electrocuting themselves in the future! :-)

Hi Maria, Merry Christmas! My Carpet and Couch dried overnight with the heating on in the room. The vacuum does a good job of removing the water, but it still needs a while to dry. :-)

Hi Russell this is a great review! Super helpful and informative! I'm wondering if you used the oxy boost on your carpets or couch? I have carper that's a bit darker like yours and I'm concerned it may bleach it

Hi Jessie, the carpet is polypropylene and is bleach resistant. I did use oxy boost on the carpet. I cannot remember whether I added it to the tank for the couch. :-)

[@eshwar923]

Does anyone know what’s the recommendation of how often to use (context we have pets in the house) in both express and deep clean modes. Was thinking once or once every two weeks in express mode and six months to a year in deep clean mode. But couldn’t find the recommendation from the manufacturer. Does anyone know?

[@rorymackenzie2944]

The reason why I have a bissell spot cleaner is because if we have a spillage it's a little bit inconvenient to get out a big carpet cleaner

I know, we have pets and a spot cleaner is a brilliant wat to sort out any issues. :-)

[@paulherndon8306]

Where u impressed with this carpet cleaner

[@rachaelducheny4203]

Yes. I felt like it was very easy to use and did a good job. The only con would be that the dirty water tank holds less than clean water tank, so you find yourself stopping multiple times to empty one, then again to fill the other. I can live with that though.

[@ashleygainard4978]

A Good review here. I Just purchased one after watching this video. It will replace my rug doctor which blew up last week. From experience with the R’Doc I Wouldn’t worry about going too slow. Slower the better. I found The slower the pass the drier the carpet was left. The lounge is about 35Sq mtrs and took around 45 mins to do with 7/8 tanks of water. It also cleaned much better at a slow pace. Interested to see how the Bissell compares to the R’Doc, the R’Doc was very clumpy but worked well during ownership. Hopefully the bissell will be on par or better than it

[@RussellPlatten]

Ours does not get a lot of use, but it does a good job Ashley. It paid for itself very quickly! :-)
