Bissell's PowerSteamer Powerbrush makes cleaning carpets easier.
Bissell designed the PowerSteamer Powerbrush to deep clean your carpet like a commercial carpet cleaner with the ease and affordability of a home appliance. Having only one water tank makes filling and emptying convenient, and Bissell created the two-in-one tank with a bladder for the clean water so it never mixes with the dirty water. The Select model in the 1623 series also comes with a hose and tools for upholstery cleaning. A separate attachment for cleaning hard floors is available directly from Bissell.

Using the Machine

3. Locate the built-in measuring cup, which is on the lid, and fill it with formula, being sure not to exceed the fill line. Pour the measured formula into the tank's bladder.
4. Fill the bladder with hot water.
5. Replace the tank's lid and lock it in place by pulling the handle back to the upright position.
