Works as expected but won’t replace professional carpet cleaning
Color: Tea Green, Style: Little Green Mini
I’d say this little green machine was worth the money. I’ve had it for a few months, and these are my pros and cons: Pros: -good size, easily stored in my closet -cord length is long enough for my needs -gets new stains out if I act quickly after spilling -comes with carpet cleaner (unlike if I were to rent a carpet cleaner from my hardware store) -great for spot cleaning Cons: -I can only spray the cleaning solution if the vacuum feature is turned on. I would like to spray and then wait a while, then turn on the vacuum feature. I could be doing this wrong, but I haven’t figured out a way to change this feature. -the suction isn’t as strong as I’d like. I recently got my carpets professionally cleaned, and I understood why that service is still necessary even if I’m spot-cleaning with my little green guy often.

Great for Small Messes, but Not a Full Carpet Cleaner Replacement
Color: Tea Green, Style: Little Green Mini
I’ve been using this for spot cleaning, and overall it’s one of those tools that’s really handy to have around. The biggest strength is how well it handles small messes. It sprays, scrubs, and sucks up stains pretty effectively—especially on things like car seats, couches, or small carpet spots. The suction is surprisingly strong for such a small unit, which is why these are so popular for quick cleanups and pet messes. () It’s also compact and easy to carry, so you’re not dragging out a full carpet cleaner every time something spills. That’s honestly where it shines the most. On the downside, it’s not perfect. The tank is pretty small, so you’ll be refilling and emptying it if you’re doing anything more than a few spots. () The hose and cord length are decent but can feel a little limiting depending on where you’re cleaning. Another thing is that while it cleans well, it can leave things a bit damp afterward, so drying time is something to keep in mind. And like most machines in this category, it can get a little loud. Overall, it’s a really solid little machine for what it’s meant to do—quick, targeted cleaning. Just don’t expect it to replace a full-size carpet cleaner for deep cleaning large areas.

Super efficient
Color: Tea Green, Style: Little Green Mini
Easy to use. Light weight. Great on upholstery and carpet spots. Tank is not large enough to do area rugs or carpet, but great for smaller cleanups.

Best machine I have found thus far
Color: Tea Green, Style: Little Green Mini
Have always had pets, cats and dogs. Tried many different cleaning machines. This one is by far the best. Compact, easy to clean, and thoughtfully designed. For example, the waste reservoir is easy to flush out, eliminating bad smells. The hose is easy to rinse out using gravity or by turning on the suction briefly. And the hand held part has a removable guard that allows easy cleaning. Also, the power cord is a good balance between too much and too little length. Whoever designed this obviously gave it some thought when it comes to maintenance and avoiding tricky cleaning. This machine never stinks if cleaned after each use. One last thing, the soap and water tank is large enough to get lots of jobs done, especially if you have a sneaky chihuahua who urinates as he pleases.

Amazing cleaning and suction power
Color: Tea Green, Style: Little Green Mini
I absolutely love this little green miracle machine. We have had old stains our carpet that other solutions and carpet cleaners could not handle. This was the only machine capable of sucking up all the material and leaving a clean carpet. The suction is strong, the spray is good, and the brush attachment really brings up dirt and strapped stains. The only thing I wish it has was more volume for the liquid cleaner and waste, but it’s worth it doing quick refills and empties for such great cleaning results.
