I recently bought a Proheat machine to clean my (I’m ashamed to say)filthy carpets. I liked the fact that it heats the water, has a powerful brush, and can apply Scotchagrd. When it arrived at my door I couldn’t wait to get it out of the box and give it a try. I did take the time to read the manual based on advice from some other reviewers, but I was busy cleaning my carpet in no time. The water was so dirty- I had to save it to show my husband. Neither of us could believe how clean our carpets looked, nearly groundbreaking new. I don’t usually take the time to write reviews, but this cleaner is so incredible that I wanted to share my experience with everyone. Anyone with carpet in their home needs one of these. It’s worth every penny.
I bought this machine without doing any prior research in order to emergency clean some funky, filthy, cat-stained carpet at a relative’s house. I own the smaller Bissell 2070 and am very pleased with it but thought that a larger, more powerful model would be better for this job.
The Bissell 79011 did a fantastic job and got rid of 98% of the stains. I did have to go over some sections and stains several times, but I don’t reckon this is unusual since the stains had been there for God knows how long. The pre-treatment solution that’s provided removed all but the toughest stain (too terrible the bottle wasn’t larger). It’s got powerful suction so (1) it sucked up disgustingly dirty water (2) the carpet’s pile stood up practically like new and (3) it dried overnight. I didn’t use the attachment so I can’t comment on its performance.
The machine is simple to assemble, it’s simple to remove/fill/replace the water tank and solution tank, and though it’s a heavy machine I didn’t find it hard to push it around the carpet. As another reviewer mentioned, it does leave a lot of carpet fuzz balls. I took this as a sign that the brushes were doing a really excellent job.
If my current carpet cleaner was older, I would probably replace it with this model because the 79011 was very impressive.
I despise this machine. The small tank that holds the cleaning solution will hardly ever work properly. Most of the time your solution will end up in a one spot since the tank leaks. Recently had the problem of water dispensing. Wish I had researched more before buying. Buy a different product.
I bought this about 2 years ago and have used it for light/normal cleaning. At first it was brilliant and it quickly paid for itself. Now 2 years later, the yellow dial has snapped leaving it on ‘hose’ only, the bristle pad has broken off the hose and the clip to hold the hose when storing has snapped off. It also leakes shampoo from the bottle straight onto the floor under the cleaner and the water no longer heats up so by the time it reaches the carpet it is only warm not hot.
Overall I loved it for the first year but it is now ready to be replaced. Will look for a better quality cleaner this time.
Not much really needs to be said. Picked up this small number and it’s truly remarkable just how much it’ll pull out of your carpets — if you’ve ever bought a fantastic vacuum and then been blown away by how much it pulls up, just wait until you see what the ProHeat finds buried deep inside.
It should be mentioned that this is NOT intended to be used as a vacuum — it’s a cleaner, plain and simple. As such it does require more care than a regular vacuum. I spoke with a local vacuum retail/service facility about this model, and while they did confirm they have a number of customers who have needed repair within a few months, in every case it’s because the unit was not cleaned or maintained per the instruction manual. I’ve cleaned a few carpets with it already, and the extra few minutes you have to spend on maintenance is well worth the tradeoff.
If you’re considering the buy of this unit in comparison to renting a Rug Doctor from time to time, the key question is how much you like the convenience and the flexibility of your own unit. For me, that was a no-brainer — especially if you get the optional powered upholstery brush.
