How to Use a Bissell Spot Bot on Berber Carpet
The Bissell Spot Bot and Spot Bot 'Pet' version claim to be carpet cleaners that you can just push a button and walk away from. It sits on the stain and runs a series of brushes and suction with carpet cleaning water/chemicals. It takes about five minutes to clean a spot.
But...if you have Berber-style carpet, you can end up making the stain worse, unless you use the following tip:
** use the attached suction nozzle to soak up extra water AFTER the cleaning cycle is done **
The reason is that the Berber carpet is 'hard' enough to keep the rim of the Spot-Bot from sealing tight against the rug. Therefore there is not as much suction, and the device leaves a wet spot (of nice, dirty water) on the carpet.
However, it has done a really remarkable job of cleaning the rug...just not of getting the dirty water up. Leaving the spot wet afterward will actually make a perfectly round stain. By using the attached 'wand' with the suction handle, you can remove the additional brown water, and have a really clean berber carpet!
