 Threw it out! November 27, 2008
After totally using up two Bissell SpotlLifters, I thought I'd give one of these a try. After all, it has scrubbing brushes, right? So it should do a better job, right? Wrong! All the brushes do is swirl the spot around. The suction is horrible. I've had this thing for over a year and only used it two or three times because each time I do I swear I won't use it again. Well, it's here, and I just had apot to clean up. It just doesn't do the job... It's heavy and noisy and ineffective. I just threw it away and am ordering a new SpotLifter. It doesn't have automatic scrubbing brushes, but it has great suction and does the job perfectly! It's lightweight and coreless to boot!
Ineffective & difficult to use November 23, 2008
In the year I've had the Dirt Devil Spot Scrubber, I've never been able to clean much of anything on my short, berber-style carpet. My main gripe with the product is a little different than others cited here; if you look at the angled, circular scrubber itself, you can see that about 80% of it is recessed inside the casing. That means most of the scrubber never touches the carpet during operation. So a very small area of the scrubber actually scrubs the carpet, and even then, only the ends of the bristles reach it. In short, the unit has very little cleaning power, leaving it ineffective for short carpets or bigger spills.
 Don't listen to the people that expect to clean clumps without cleaning it themselves.... November 22, 2008
Don't pay any attention to those people that comment 'it won't clean up my dog's diarrhea, vomit, carpet runner,etc...first of all-this is a SPOT CLEANER!!! Not a FULL SIZE Carpet cleaner...don't be cheap and buy this expecting to clean your 'entire carpet runner or entry way'...it's not gonna happen, you'll be exhausted. I believe it is capable of doing so-if you don't mind doing it. I have never had a bad experience with this cleaner. I've used it daily for pet stains. I have a small dog who cannot go out in the colder months and is crate trained but can be high maintenance. Pet stains, poo stains, soda, vomit...you name and this thing will clean it. OBVIOUSLY if you have something clumpy you gotta 'pick it up' THEN clean it...otherwise it will throw whatever clumps you're cleaning at you-I don't know any cleaner that won't. And as far as suctioning...you set it on vaccum to scrub and suck to residue and spray first...I've never had a problem and highly recommend it. My mom always used bissell carpet cleaners and handhelds and hers crapped out after 6months. I've had this awhile and it's great. So great I'm getting my mom one for xmas...don't believe the negativity...they're just challenged.
Just plain Bad September 23, 2008
Here is my experience with this big, clunky, worthless piece of plastic...
Seemed pretty simple right out of the box, all the markings on the actual unit talked me through everything. So-far so good...
I then decided to add the hot water and cleaning solution. My immediate thought was that it did not hold a lot of liquid, but then again... it IS only for spots.
Time to get down to the dirty work...
Turned the power switch on and "VVVRRRRROOOOMMMM!". I woke my daughter up, the neighbors and I think they even heard this thing in the next county over. I was not impressed (not that I could hear myself think I wasn't impressed)... but I thought "Ok... more noise means more POWER!!! Woot!"
I also noticed they could use this unit in one of those movies where they need a high power fan to make it look like a hurricane or tornado... because the amount of air that came out of the vents were enough to blow my dogs hair off! I was actually thinking about using the side vent to blow the stain away. But again, I thought more POWER!!! Woot!
Pushed the button to let out some nice, hot, soapy bubbles and was not impressed with the little spat it let out.... But no problem, I will just press the button again.
Wrong! The button went down and never came back up! I pressed, I shook, I tilted it and I played trying to get the button back up but it just preferred to stay down.
Okay... just shake the darn thing till I got enough dripping to cover my stain. My spit probably would have been faster, but I didn't think about that till now.
I glanced at the pretty blue and white round brush at the bottom and couldn't wait for it to start spinning. Turned the scrubber on and away I went...
I scrubbed, and scrubbed, and scrubbed, and scrubbed, and scrubbed and watched my stain just sit there.
Hmmm, maybe the vacuum will suck it up now? I switched the vacuum switch on and I sucked and sucked and sucked and sucked then realized that this thing REALLY sucked.
It's bad... It's been a long time since I bought something this bad!
But, I give it 4 stars for being a great paper weight. I would have given it 5 stars for being the perfect paper weight but it is a bit too big and expensive. I hope they come down in price and make it lighter... I have 2-3 more piles of paper I need weighed down. It's fun turning on the vacuum... the paper stays put, but I don't need turn my ceiling fan on!
Terrible product September 21, 2008

I bought one of these thinking it would do the job for a pet "accident" or little spills. Terrible, it doesn't have any suction to speak of, I sure wouldn't call it a scrubber! I kept going over the same spot and it didn't do much except make it wet. I finally threw this out after trying it on a few different spills. Waste of money.
