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

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

Just realize the heated version has a 9 Amps motor vs 3 for the regular so 3x more power

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.

Ok so basicly their is no need for the heated version?

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.
