I love Bissell and trying to be more financially frugal by cleaning my own carpets than paying SS astronomical prices. So was thrilled to purchase this item and hurt by the let down. I have to pour the cleaning solution from the tank to get carpets ready since the 2 brushes do not spray. I also have a spray bottle to help saturate. Cleans well with all the extra sweat but expect more from Bissell. I was planning to purchase another one for my other house but this experience nah!!!!!
