What Customers Are Saying
The Bissell Little Green Portable Carpet Cleaner is a mixed performer. Some users found it effective for cleaning up pet stains, spills, and light carpet cleaning, praising its portability and ease of use. However, others reported issues with suction power, difficulty using the machine, and durability problems. While it may be suitable for light, occasional use, customers with high expectations or need for heavy-duty cleaning may be better off renting a professional-grade carpet cleaner.

Would RecommendThis little machine is a God send. My dog gets sick occasionally and it’s hard to get it all out of my carpet. This little portable machine is handy and simple to use.

It's ok
Would Not RecommendIt's ok, not what I expected. I expected the suction to be stronger and the hot water did not stay warm very long. I have an old one and I was expecting a vast improvement. It did not clean as well as I expected but it was ok.

Best to buy the upgraded version
They have improved the Little Giant, but this was their first model. This model is hard to clean after using. It does a good job, but it is very annoying when you are trying to clean the Little Giant after use.

If you have pets, you need this great lil cleaner!
Would RecommendThis is my second lil Green Machine. I use it primarily to clean dirt stains on large room rugs and it’s perfect.

The Green Mini is the companion to my CrossWave
Would RecommendI already own the Bissell CrossWave and got the Little Green Mini as a complement and it’s been great. I live in a small apartment with limited closet space, and this fits easily in a closet. It’s lightweight, easy to move around, simple to use, and super effective on the occasional accident from my pup or the dirt he tracks in. Only issue I have is keeping all the pieces wrapped up together.

Cleans out the Memories You’d Like to Forget
Would RecommendBorrowed my brother & sister in law’s green machine to clean the urine stains out of my mattress I adore that was soiled from my exes drunken bed wetting. Paired with some stain remover & a little extra soap in there, that little guy had perfect results, good as new!

Even the cats are impressed
Would RecommendI am in love with this machine! Having 3 cats and a teenager has left my upholstered couch kinda dingy and smelly. With just one cleaning it smelled a lot fresher and I could visibly see how much dirt was being pulled out. I may go over it a second time (because 3 cats and a teenager) but once it’s clean clean, I think this little green machine will be great for occasional maintenance. It was super easy to use and store away.

This machine saved my rugs
Would RecommendI bought this product after adopting a second dog from a local rescue. I had borrowed one from my sister when my first rescue soiled carpet at my son’s house when visiting. I am so happy to be able to quickly and efficiently clean any accidents my newest rescue has until he is potty trained which is going well now.

Underwhelmed
Would Not RecommendI was a little underwhelmed by the power of this machine. I used it on a couch with stains and it didn't do as well as I thought.

Hi Laura – thanks for sharing your experience. We're sorry to hear the Little Green® didn’t deliver the power you were hoping for on your couch stains...

Sorry to hear the Little Green didn’t meet your expectations, Mira. The suction should be strong enough for spot cleaning, so if it feels weak, this g...
