Small enough to store anywhere, powerful enough to tackle everyday stains.

Tired of Renting a Carpet Cleaner for Small Messes?

Whether it's spilled coffee on the couch, muddy footprints on the rug, or pet accidents on upholstery, dragging out a full-size carpet cleaner isn't always practical.

That's where the BISSELL Little Green Mini Portable Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner shines. Designed for quick spot cleaning, this compact machine delivers strong suction, easy portability, and simple maintenance—all without taking up much storage space.

Why Homeowners Love the BISSELL Little Green Mini

Unlike bulky carpet cleaners, the Little Green Mini focuses on the jobs most people deal with every week.

Powerful Spot Cleaning

The machine sprays cleaning solution deep into fabric, loosens dirt with its Tough Stain Tool, and immediately vacuums up dirty water.

It's especially effective for:

• Coffee spills
• Food stains
• Pet accidents
• Muddy footprints
• Car upholstery
• Fabric chairs
• Area rugs
• Stairs

Compact Size That Fits Anywhere

One of the biggest selling points is its size.

If you live in:

• An apartment
• A condo
• A small house
• A dorm

you can easily store it in a closet or laundry room without sacrificing valuable space.

Unlike full-size carpet cleaners, it's light enough to carry from room to room—or even out to the garage for cleaning your car.

Self-Cleaning Hose Saves Time

Cleaning the machine after use is often the worst part of owning a carpet cleaner.

BISSELL solves that problem with the included HydroRinse Self-Cleaning Tool.

Simply attach it after cleaning and rinse the hose to remove leftover dirt and cleaning solution, helping prevent odors and buildup.

Separate Water Tanks Keep Cleaning Efficient

The Little Green Mini uses:

• Clean water tank
• Dirty water tank

This keeps fresh solution separate from extracted dirt, making each cleaning session more hygienic and effective.

Great for Pet Owners

Pet owners often struggle with:

• Fur
• Mud
• Drool
• Food spills
• Accidents

Instead of scrubbing stains by hand, the Little Green Mini quickly extracts dirty water from fabric surfaces, making cleanup much easier.

Perfect for Cleaning Cars

One reason this cleaner receives so many positive reviews is its versatility.

It's excellent for:

• Car seats
• Floor mats
• Trunk carpeting
• SUV interiors
• Fabric headliners
• Boat cushions

Its portable design makes it much easier to maneuver than a full-size carpet cleaner.
