OK but not all that [Posted on 2008-08-18]
I usually have my carpet professionally cleaned about once a year and was hoping to use this for the in-between times. I have a cat who now and then sneaks a little dog food and then of course vomits. This vomit turns out red-based because of the food. With this product being called spot bot for pets I was hoping it would do better. It only barely lightens the red-based stains to a pink color, certainly not removing it. It does seem to work so far on other stains that aren't so reddish. I used it three times on one of the bad spots, but still no luck. Very easy to use right out of the box, though, everything you need comes with it. It could be expensive to use also, it only cleans a very small area and it uses quite a bit of chemical each time. If I had used this before purchasing, I'm not sure I would have gone ahead and bought it.
Fantastic product, worth every single penny. [Posted on 2008-08-30]
So, I have a friend who has (breathes in): 7 cats, 2 dogs, 2 bunnies, 2 birds and several tanks of fish. She is a veterinarian, and she is the one that I first saw use this product....so, this past week when I experienced an issue of my own with my one and only cat, I decided to go and buy it. I can honestly say that it is one of the best investments I have EVER made.
I have read on here that the size of the round brush was not large enough to cover the area that an animal may make a stain...but here is the thing, for times like that, it has a removable manual brush/vacuum/spray that works perfectly! In fact, I have yet to use the round end, preferring to use the manual instead....I am so thrilled with my purchase, that I had to come on here and tell everyone.
If you have one pet or multiple pets and you have carpet, you need to have this product. Whether you own or rent...it will save you money. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
Special note: Bed Bath and Beyond carries this, and with one of their 20 percent off coupons.... :)

I was skeptical. I had my carpet professionally cleaned and was very
disappointed. There were dark sections where my large Goldens would
lie that was a combo of dirt and skin oils - professional couldn't
make a dent. This machine worked great. Be aware that this cleans in
rather small circles. So I had a field of very light circles where it
was clean. My only solution is to overlap slightly the circles and work
my way around a rather large patch. Sure wish the round brush area was
lots bigger but I know that would be impractical. I used VERY HOT water
and the deep clean cycle. This machine cleaned up every spot I tried it
on. Great for all the pet "accidents" that occur but of course I've used
it on all the spots of various origins and each and every one is gone!
I would encourage you to try it. For small areas its fantastic. For
larger areas, it just takes time going by very small sections. But it sure
beat the "professionals" and rented units that I had tried.
Effective for specific uses only...maybe [Posted on 2008-09-08]
I've had my machine for a couple of months now. I purchased it bec. I was looking for a handier cleaning tool for the hair balls that my cats "present" to us. What I found was that I needed to do a lot of pre-cleaning, otherwise the machine spreads the stain around since the brushes work in a circular pattern, just making the stain larger. Also, we have a higher pile carpet and I feel like the brushes were too rough on the 'twist' of the fibers, altering the carpet's appearance in the areas where it was used. So for us it's back to the SpotShot cleaner and the (mfr. recommended) clear dish soap/water solution. If we had low-pile carpet and wanted to clean up, say a pee spot this would be a useful tool. Also, the hand-held tool really sucks; doesn't do anything except drip the cleaning solution and make a mess.
I wish we had bought this sooner! -- GREAT product! [Posted on 2008-09-30]
Bissell 1200A SpotBot Pet Hands-Free Compact Deep Cleaner, Blue Illusion My wife and I simply do not know why we did not buy this earlier. Like many families we have wall-to-wall carpeting and we have 2-mini Dachshund companions. On occasion like most Dogs and Cats, they do have an accident. While we have a "Full Size" Bissell Steam Cleaner that works great, since we have received this we have not had to pull it out. This is very compact and works extremely well. We have had to use it now on number 1's, 2's and a throw up and it does as well if not BETTER than our full size and as it is concentrated liquid, is inexpensive to operate comparatively. The nozzle for stairs and furniture is just a very nice added bonus as we have cleaned our sofa of VERY set in stains and now completely gone! Do not hesitate to buy this product as we do not believe you will regret it one bit.
