BISSELL Little Green HydroSteam Portable Carpet Cleaner, 3618

The BISSELL Little Green HydroSteam 3618 is a portable deep cleaner designed to lift stubborn stains, oily messes, and everyday spills from soft surfaces and select hard materials. By combining steam, suction, and cleaning solution, it offers a focused spot-cleaning solution for households dealing with pet accidents, dirty upholstery, or stained car seats.

Cleaning flexibility comes from its three distinct operational settings. SteamWash mode tackles tough, greasy messes, regular Steam mode refreshes furniture and cleans hard surfaces like tile and grout, and Wash mode focuses on enzyme-based pet spots. The machine pairs these settings with a 5-inch Tough Stain Tool for carpets and stairs, alongside a Multi-Surface Tool that extends cleaning to hard surfaces and sneakers. Furthermore, cleaned upholstery dries in about 30 minutes, cutting down the waiting time before you can use your furniture again.

Maintenance and daily operation rely on a dual-tank system designed to keep fresh solution separated from dirty wastewater. The clean tank holds 64 ounces, reducing how often you need to refill during larger spot jobs, while the dirty tank removes easily for quick emptying. The package also includes a bottle of PET PRO OXY Spot & Stain Urine Eliminator formula to help permanently lift stains and prevent future marking.

While the cleaner covers a wide variety of surfaces, the product listing leaves out a few practical physical specifications. It does not state the overall unit weight, machine dimensions, power cord length, or hose reach, which makes it harder to gauge storage needs or operating radius before purchasing.

Verdict: The BISSELL Little Green HydroSteam is well suited for homeowners, car owners, and pet parents who need a versatile spot cleaner capable of handling both fabric stains and tile surfaces. If you want the extra stain-lifting power of steam alongside standard carpet washing, this multi-mode portable machine is a solid choice.

A great fit if you:

• Need to clean pet accidents, urine, and set-in stains from carpets and rugs
• Want a machine that handles both soft upholstery and hard tile or grout
• Clean car interiors, stairs, and small items like sneakers regularly
• Prefer faster upholstery drying times of around 30 minutes

Consider something else if you:

• Need a full-sized upright machine to wash entire rooms of wall-to-wall carpeting
• Require an ultra-compact cleaner with confirmed lightweight dimensions before buying
