I have a mini bissell upright.  My mom has the big machine and it is HUGE.  This one is tiny (it only has like a 6 inch path)  It holds just enough water and solution to get a spot out.  Ours got a workout when Loki was a puppy and it even gets out puke stains.  We ripped our carpet out downstairs last summer and even on the backside there were no stains.  We always got the spots right away and that thing worked great!        |
