Bissell Deep Clean Premier Pet Carpet Cleaner Review

You love your pets and consider them to be family members. Still, dealing with shedding hair, muddy paws, and how they track outside dirt into your home can be pretty stressful, especially when all of these are stuck on your carpets, upholstered furniture, rugs, and stairs. Investing in the Bissell Deepclean Premier Pet Carpet Cleaner 17N4 model is an excellent solution for eliminating pet hair, accidental stains, and odors from carpets, rugs, and more.

Pet stains, hair, odors, and deep ground-in dirt can damage the fibers of your carpet, upholstery, and rugs. Loosening and removing them protects your home’s flooring and other surfaces. While vacuuming may do an excellent job of picking up dust, grime, and other debris on your floors and furniture, deep cleaning removes all the dirt and leaves them smelling fresh and new.

Because the Bissell Deep Clean Premier is an upright vacuum and a carpet scrubber, it is excellent for pet owners, especially those with large homes or multiple animals. While other portable cleaners may have similar cleaning capabilities, this Bissell has a few features that may work best for you.

Regular Use

One feature of the DeepClean that makes it different from other models is its heatwave technology. That’s fancy saying it maintains the water temperature as you clean. Most other cleaners have you fill the container with warm tap water, which can cool as you go along your floors. Keeping it warm means more power to remove stains.

Regarding its scrubbing capability, the Premier Pet has twelve rows of cleaning brushes, making it more than capable of digging deep into even high-pile carpets to dig out dirt and stains. It also has brushes on the edge to get close to baseboards, walls, and cabinets. The Surround Suction feature sucks up any extra water, reducing the drying time you might find with other machines.

It also incorporates a pet hair basket (which catches much more than pet hair), so it doesn’t float around in the water, only to clog up your drain when you dump it.

Specs

Pros

  • Ergonomic design that’s easy to maneuver and very lightweight
  • Rubber seals prevent water leakage
  • Works great on pet hair and stains
  • Easy to assemble, clean, and maintain
  • Gets close to walls and baseboards
  • Sucks up excess water to speed drying time

Cons

While overall, review after review of people who use this model regularly love it and say it’s an excellent value for the price, it would be nice if it could be used for hardwood floors as well. Most cleaners of this type are meant for one or the other (bare floors or carpet), and this one is no exception.

Comparison vs Similar Models

Another similar model is the DeepClean Deluxe Pet, model 36Z9, which is essentially the same as this one but has a trigger where you can release more of the cleaning solution onto a stain. It also has a stain trapper tool that will keep messes from pets away from the rest of the machine. This may be better if you have “accidents” to clean up or severe stains in your rugs or furniture.

Other contenders are the Hoover Power Scrub Deluxe Carpet Washer and the Shark Sonic Duo. While neither of these has a separate container for pet messes, they do have some essential features.

The Hoover has separate containers for clean and dirty water, which is a lovely addition and ensures you’re only cleaning with uncontaminated water.

The Sonic Duo, on the other hand, is a best-selling favorite because it cleans both bare floors and carpeting. (The Bissell is only meant for carpet.). However, it’s not a vacuum, so it doesn’t suck up excess water.

Consumer Reports

In customer reviews, users give this model a 4.5 out of 5-star rating. Additionally, the “pros” of customers far outweigh the “cons.” Also, though it’s not the cheapest cleaner you can buy, it is much less expensive than other models, such as the Bissell 36Z9, which has practically all the features of the 17N4 with a few additions – such as the Clean Shot spray feature – that not all users particularly need.

For pet owners on a budget, this machine does an excellent job cleaning pet stains and eliminating ground-in pet hair. The advantage of this model over others that pet owners appreciate most is the pet hair basket. Pet owners with cats and dogs that shed a lot of hair daily find this one works much better. It also comes with trial sizes of the pet cleaners you need, so you don’t need to buy any solutions to get started.

Should You Buy It?

Unless you have a whole menagerie of pets that continuously shed hair by the hour on the hour, you don’t need the more expensive models to give your carpets, upholstery, and rugs the best and most thorough cleaning for your needs.

Without a doubt, the Bissell pet carpet cleaner is the Bissell line’s most cost-efficient cleaning machine, with practical and valuable features sufficient for devoted pet owners. Excellent cleaning function, convenient usability, and one of the best values for the money are all considerations as to why it is a good choice.
