how do I stop it from leaking dirty water spots

Mine did the same thing. You will have to take it in to be repaired. It just starts to break down in many ways after using it just a few times. It's a very poor quality machine.

Sorry to hear about the leak! It could be caused by dirty debris wrapped around the brushes or underneath the unit. Try cleaning the bottom and if you are still having issue please contact us so we can help. http://www.bissell.com/contact-us/?cid=ccsocial2107

That's a good question but one I can't answer. I have had nothing but trouble with my Bissell cleaner. Usually it doesn't work and when it does, it leaks water in streaks. I wish I had returned it but it's been more than a year. Good luck!

Depending on the age & where it's leaking from you may be able to have the seals replaced. I wouldn't put much $ into repair though. If it's not very low cost just replace it.

Make sure you put water in it and I know it may sound funny but bang on it a couple of times and it should go away if not then contact the people where you got it from.

Take a small quantity of toothpaste and smear it on the reflective side of the mirror. Then wash it off. This should clear the water spots.

There is a cleaning fluid that should be used with the machine. Plain water can work but will not be as effective.

Get it wet again with really hot water and lay it on a flat surface. Lay it on its working surface and not the feet

I had this problem from day one and found that a smooth slow shut off will eliminate the drip in the directions it mentions a water pressure regulator I believe that would probably end the problem.....Just a guess

Just make sure the vacuum part at the bottom is clean. I had the same issue but turned out the brushes at the bottom had stuff rapped around it blocking the water to come out.

Mine has a water build up inside that I must dump. I don't have any water leaking out on the counter

Mine has the brown spot issue as well every time I use self cleaning before ironing, for the leaking just swivel ironing temperature indicator and put it on the lowest one.

I had the same thing. It was dirty... Use white vinegar to clean the water reservoir and fan. Replug in, place in the reservoir tank filled. It should work. These need new filters about every three months because they filter alot of air, its amazing whats in our air..especially if you keep a window open... Hope this helps.

Hold it on its side, soap up a sponge, wipe it, and then rinse it off. You must keep holding the Microhearth on its side

Just keep it rinsed. Have never gotten it dirty enough to be a problem. Have only owned it a couple of months. Cheap enough to replace if it gets messed up badly. Matter of fact; I bought it as a replacement for the failing one in the used camper I recently purchased.

Try using a cleaning brush or a cloth & soap & water. I wouldn't submerge it.

sorry, I returned my unit because it was leaking everywhere. I never got any further. Perhaps there's dried soap in the nozzle? try a open paper clip and see if there isn't a clog

make sure you only use distilled water......if not,...try cleaning machine by running cleaning solution through

Hi, Just buy a can of Scott guard and spray the canvas bottom. And it will add protection from leaking. Follow directions on can. Will make clean up easier!

Fill the sink with a bit of bleach water, and let it soak. I have gotten all the stains off of mine that way!
