I am both impressed and disgusted
Before I bought the Bissell TurboClean PowerBrush Pet Carpet Cleaner, 2987,Green/ Black, I was a normal person. A normal person with a dark secret. You see, my carpets were always dirty. For some reason, stains took to my carpets like moths to a flame, college students to a bar, women to broken men…you get the idea. Stains and my carpet were intertwined, inseparable, and indissoluble.
I spent hours strategizing how to clean these carpets. A normal vacuum would inevitably give up, choking on the mess of cat hair, litter, and who knows what else. I spent hours contemplating what to do. Some days I would take a broom and brush all the gunk off. I bought every pet stain remover and deodorizer the grocery store had to offer. More often than not, I was left with an immovable stain outlined by white residue–which would in turn become part of the landscape of my carpet.
I was despondent. Nothing was working. I was doomed to my perennial fear: a house that smelled like “cat”. You know the smell. I could feel it clinging to my clothes. God forbid I ever drop an article of clothing on the floor. I feared dropping food on the floor, knowing that it would render the food unfit for human consumption.
I bought a Bissell vacuum a while back, and while it cleaned my carpet of the top layer of filth, I knew I needed something that would reach deeper. Something that would claw its way to the depths of my carpets and purify them of every morsel of dirt to ever sully them.
Then, the Bissell TurboClean PowerBrush Pet Carpet Cleaner, 2987,Green/ Black appeared in my suggested purchases feed. Readers, that was when everything changed. I stared at the screen and thought to myself: my life as I know it is about to be upheaved. Ecstatic, I placed the order for the Bissell and the pet stain and odor removing fluid. A few fateful days later, and I had the package in hand.
The setup was simple, even for a person like me, who once cooked spaghetti wrong. The instructions, with clear visual guides, resulted in something beautiful: a Bissell. But there was still work to be done. Determined, I filled the clean water tank with appropriately hot water and the correct proportion of fluid. I plugged the Bissell in and took a deep breath. This was the moment of truth.
I pressed down on the scarlet on button and was greeted with a resonant “vroom”. I pressed the nozzle and swiped back and forth. And then I did it again. I could see the dirty water piling up with each swipe, frothing in the bottom of the Bissell. Frenzied, I cleaned one room after another, marveling at the murky color of the water. When I finished, I looked around and felt my soul lift up. My carpets were finally clean.
An easy, affordable carpet cleaning machine that gets the job done. I would recommend this to my friends, family, strangers on the street, and even my enemies. Because no one should have dirty carpets. My wedding vows will not be “I do”, but rather “I Bissell”.
