In all seriousness this was in good condition and great for use in getting stains out and getting built up gunk out without using chemicals
The original model of these was recalled, but not this updated model.
Community Reviews
Bissell's Steam Shot is a compact handheld steam cleaner that works well for small cleaning jobs, especially grease, stains, grout, bathroom sinks, mirrors, and even car film removal. It can clean without chemicals and the included accessories make it useful for one-handed scrubbing. The tank is small, so longer jobs take time, and the hose is not included, which makes some tasks harder. Distilled water is strongly recommended, and the recall discussion centers on older models rather than this 4155 unit.
Common Questions (5)
It can work very well on small cleaning jobs, especially grease, grime, grout, bathroom sinks, mirrors, and built-up gunk. It is less effective on stubborn stovetop stains and some users found it too small or underpowered for larger jobs.
No hose is included, and the garment/fabric steamer attachment is also not included. The unit is still usable for small jobs, but it is much less convenient without the hose and some listing photos show attachments that are not in the box.
Model 4155 in this deal is not listed in the recalled Steam Shot models. The recall applied to older Steam Shot models, and the recall process for affected units is straightforward if you do have one.
Distilled water is strongly recommended because hard water can clog the nozzle sooner. Tap water can still work and may be fine in some areas, but it can shorten the cleaner's life or require cleaning/replacement if buildup forms.
The fill markings are confusing: the pour spout shows 6.5 oz, while the instructions say not to exceed 10 oz. That small tank means it can run out quickly during bigger cleaning jobs, even if it keeps up for short bursts.

Im in the same situation. I wonder if they will take the old one without a hose so we can keep it for use with this model?

I paid $20. Wait until the new year and they'll be paying you $5 to take it off their hands.
