I love how small and compact this is! It cleans very well, just as well as my $250 full sized Bissell carpets scrubber. It is great for when the cat throws up or the one of the dogs tinkle, so I don't have to get the bigger scrubber out. However, you can't really clean the gunk out from around the brush very easily. My Bissell, you can take the brushes out and clean around them, so the machine doesn't start to stink up, with the press of two buttons. However, with the PowerDash, you need to remove several screws, pull the brush out, and even take the belt out to clean around there.
