Bissell SpotClean

The spilled wine. The ground-in dirt. Fido’s little accident.

Blunders like this can mar your otherwise pristine carpet. It’s such a pain to lug out the big-guns, deep-cleaning machine or, worse, to get down on your hands and knees and do all the scrubbing yourself. Particularly when it’s just one little area in a sea of relatively clean deep pile.

Bissell’s new SpotClean ($99.99) fills the gap.

The squat machine has removable water tanks on each side and Bissell’s Heatwave Technology to keep the water temperature high (the better for tackling stains). The Deep Reach Tool roots out embedded dirt.

It also has a soft-grip handle to make carrying it around a little easier.

The Bissell folks say it also works on upholstery and auto interiors, for those coffee splotches, jam blobs and ketchup drippings.Visit bissell.com.
