Hi, A little question for you guys, Here in canada i can get the regular bissell Little green machine for 80$ or the heated version for 160$. Is the heated version really worth 2x the price of the regular. Thanks
I actually used the heated version and it works really well. I didn't use the regular one though so I honestly wouldn't be able to compare the two but the heated action does make a big difference. Just my opinion though :2cents:
i used the regular one it works just fine i just put really hot water in it you figure the tank is small and it emptys pretty fast so it doesnt matter to me if its a heated version or not just put hot water in with your cleaning solution and it will still work wonders
Good point yoyomoefoe, actually now that I think of it I did the same thing a few times. Put hot water on the container, becuase the machine takes a bit of time to heat up the water by it's self...if you put cold, cold water that is :shrug:
The presence of a heating element is why there is the additional power requirement. I did the same thing as yoyomoefoe and just used hot tap water in my regular unit.
The hot water is a nice option to have but for that much of a price difference I would just dump hot water in it. If it was me, I would save the money for more products.
Personally I wouldn't spend the additional money on it. If you're in the south-eastern ontario region shoot me a PM, I'd be willing to trade mine for samples or products.
I got a deal on Sunday for the heated one. Went to big lots, had a remanfactured (non-heated) one pictured in a box. Paid $40, went home, opened it, and it was the heated one with the trubo brush. Even though it was remanufactured, thing worked like a champ.
wow $160, i know this is alder thread but i got my heated one here in cali for $80. I sometimes add hot water to my heated one to speed up the heating process.
