When I got mine I had an existing Hoover machine so I did a room with the Hoover, then with the Bissell, and the Bissell was able to pull out more dirt, and it also did a much better job at pulling out loose pile.
Here's my general approach:
- get a pump sprayer for pretreat. The $10 ones.
- for shampoo, the Bissell stuff is good, but expensive. I use the ZEP extractor shampoo HD sells. They sell a 2.5 gal version [homedepot.com] on top of the 1 gal version, saves you some $$ if you anticipate using it.
- Work in sections. Pretreat an area and saturate it pretty well with the pump sprayer. If there is a particularly bad stain you might use a different pretreat there that's designed for that kind of stain (e.g. pet)
- Fill the bottom tank of the vacuum with HOT water/soap and remove the top (suction) tank.
- Work the pretreat in, moving back and forth, while dispensing the water/soap. The purpose here is to use the beater bar for agitation without sucking the liquid out of the carpet, and with the Bissell there is no way to turn the vacuum off. Work the carpet twice, in different directions.
- Refill the water tank, install the vac tank, and start to vacuum. Start at a wall and gradually walk back. The purpose of refilling the water tank is to give added weight to the unit which should enhance suction.
- Move the unit back to the wall, and start a half width's offset from the first draw. Alternately you could suction the area twice, in different directions. I do this to extract as much liquid out as possible, basically going over the area twice
- You can repeat the steps above with plain water as a rinse, but I've never had to do that.
- When dry, go over with a regular vacuum. This will work the carpet fibers a bit and soften it up a touch.
- clean and rinse the unit before storage
As you are working you might notice "hairballs" which is.....hair, but also excess carpet fibers. The unit will usually suck these back up. You'll also see a slew of these when you pull the unit out of storage (must get stuck on the beater bar).
The only con to this machine is that it's large and somewhat unwieldy at times, but the weight is what gives it better suction.
