How does this differ from Bissell Stain Pretreat for Carpet &amp; Upholstery? If they are redundant, which works better?

From my experience, I really haven't noticed a difference. I do like the Oxyclean treatment one as the stains seem to disappear instantly, but I also use the Bissell carpet cleaner for allergies and pet stains. It comes in a green plastic bottle and can be purchased at Kmart. Hope this helps.

This might not be the cleaner for you, the machine only has one row of brushes and only works going backwards. I would recommend the bissel big green, or if you have the money I would recommend commercial carpet cleaners from Hoover, EDIC Galaxy, or sanitaire.

@H.Sharrott 100% cleaner and higher quality. I've used both and this product stands by itself. Worth every penny.

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!

Wine Away is a water-based stain remover. So, it will most likely remove the stain, but some woolen carpets will get a water-ring when you use a water-based cleaner. So I would spot-check before you use it. Even if there is a water ring, you can steam out the ring at a later time.

I recommend the Bissell spot cleaner, I used it on my truck and it did a nice job. My son then used it on his truck and also replied it worked well.

I tried using the Bissell 2X Pet Stain removal sample included with the carpet machine directly from the bottle on to a stain, not using the carpet machine, and it did not remove the stain at all.

We've had it for over a year, and have found that a sponge and soapy water have cleaned any stains pretty well. If we ran into a worse problem, I'd likely try carpet/upholstery cleaner, but no need yet.

I don't have hardwood floors, so can't answer that part, but I do have a German Shepherd (indoor/outdoor doggie), and HE is the reason I got the Dyson! I use the upholstery attachment on my cotton slip-covered sofa and for harder to maneuver areas, I use the narrower nozzle--they both seem do do the trick!! The suction power is so superior, and contributes so much to the effort. I do the same with auto upholstery and get great results.

Sorry Vicki I cant help you with ur question as I purchased the spray bottle.This product is pretty amazing and it actually works on carpet stains.What i can tell u is,spay the area and put a paper towel (Ex. Bounty) over it with a heavy object on it,you can even use the bottle it self to.put on top,and just let it sit there for ten minutes and you"ll see the difference

Yes, just make sure to use Bissel shampoo specific to the upholstery, stains etc.

I'd need a little more information before I could a answer your question... Did you use the product as directed? How much did you use on the stain at one time? I've never had that happen with this product. You could have used too much or not let it dry between uses, or something in the carpet cleaner may have reacted with the enzymes in the Nature's Miracle. I personally love the product and always recommend it.

I didn't do any specific pretreating. I did do several passes on particularly problematic areas and will continue to do so. My primary rug is a very light off white, over my large active dogs reside and live. Some stains basically come out over extended times and repeated cleanings. Once I purchased a rug cleaner rather than renting one, the carpet has slowly improved in cleanliness over the last couple of years.

I don't have carpets but looked this up online. People have used it in carpet cleaners. Make sure carpet is colorfast.

I use the capture premist on stains and very little or none on low traffic areas. This is an amazing product and makes the rugs look clean so if you do not obtain the desired result you need to buy the premist also.

A little. I have been using an alcohol based cleaner instead of the Bissell brand (see my previous question response on this subject). It is a little damp but I don't know of any water based carpet cleaner that would not leave some dampness.

Of course it depends on the kind of stain you have and how you treat the stain, and work on it. I have pet stains. I use a solution of oxyclean and water that I make myself. I put in a spray bottle and treat the stain first. Then suck up the water with the bissell. I then pour water with a drop of dawn dishwashing liquid in it, on the spot and scrub with a scrub brush. I then use the bissell to suck up the water. It works perfect for my type of stain.
