Bissell SpotLifter 1716 Handheld Cleaner

I bought this because my really big steam cleaner bit the dust. I needed something I could use that would be quick to set up and easy to clean while also doing a good job on spots. I have had it for two weeks and used it five or six times (I have three sons and a puppy I am trying to house-train). I always have something to clean up. It came out of the box pretty much ready to use. There is one removable small tank on the back (on top) for cleaning solution and water. Then a second larger removable tank on the bottom that slides in a out for waste water. There is also a set of cleaning brushes that can be removed for cleaning. It works better if you pick up and big chunks or large pieces of what ever has been spilled on the floor. For example I've had to clean up throw up and just got the big pieces off the floor and then put the Spot Lifter to work. I have very pleased with this little machine. I don't think you'd try to do a whole room with but as the name implies it is good for Spot Lifting! This was a good investment on my part. I hope someone else will find it as useful as I have.
