Using a combination of hot tap water, Bissell deep cleaning formula, suction, and a powerful cross-action brush, this lightweight and versatile home cleaning system loosens and removes the ground-in dirt embedded deep in the fibers of rugs and carpets. Ideal for homes with children and pets, the QuickSteamer deep cleaner is also a boon to those with allergies or asthma, who find that vacuuming doesn’t sufficiently remove dust, dander, and other allergens from the home. Running on 4 amps of power and cleaning an 8-1/2 inch path, it also quickly and easily converts to a hard floor cleaner for added versatility. Measuring only 15-3/4 inches wide, 9 inches deep, and 44-1/4 inches tall, the lightweight QuickSteamer weighs in at less than 12 pounds, yet cleans as well as a full-size upright model. It’s also a joy to use and maneuver, thanks to oversized wheels and an ergonomically-designed handle. After cleaning it stores ready-to-use and fits inside even the smallest closet. The 20-foot power cord stretches across large rooms, while the quick-release cord wrap makes the long cord less cumbersome and likely to tangle. The QuickSteamer features easy-to-empty, half-gallon clean water and dirty water recovery tanks; on average, it cleans an eight by eight foot area before the dirty water tank needs to be emptied and the clean water and formula replaced. This deep cleaner has been factory reconditioned, meaning it was returned to the manufacturer, who restores the appliance to like-new condition without the brand-new price. Some models may have cosmetic blemishes. Purchase includes a limited 90-day warranty. --Mary Park
