Our take
On this page
Our verdict
The Little Green 1400B is the right size for spot cleaning that really is spot cleaning: a pet accident, a spill on a cushion, a car seat. Its 48 oz clean tank and 3-inch tool are built for that, and Consumer Reports found that standard and ProHeat Little Green machines "worked pretty well" against store-bought sprays. Skip it if you regularly clean big rug patches or flights of stairs, where its tank and narrow tool mean more refills and passes. The variant trap: Amazon sells many Little Green versions (Pet Deluxe 3353, Mini 4075, ProHeat), with different tanks and tools. Make sure the title ends in 1400B if you want the model described here, and note that the 1400B does not heat water.
Use and care
Blot liquid first, test a hidden area for colorfastness, then spray, scrub and suction, working from the edges inward as the Carpet and Rug Institute advises. After each session, use the HydroRinse tool to flush the hose so residue does not dry inside. Empty and rinse the dirty tank before storing. Bissell recommends its own formulas; the trial bottle runs out quickly, so plan on a full-size bottle.
FAQ
Does the Little Green 1400B heat the water?
Bissell's page lists no heater. Heat is a feature of the separate Little Green ProHeat line.
How long is the hose?
Bissell's page says 4.5 feet in its description and 4 feet in its spec table, so plan for about 4 feet.
Can it clean car seats?
Bissell lists auto interiors among its surfaces, as does the Amazon listing.
