PSA: The Viral Bissell Little Green Mini Cleaner Is Seriously Discounted Right Now

Listen: We all make mistakes. Case in point? Buying a white rug, despite your pup's tendency to track mud into the house or your toddler's habit of throwing food on the floor. But don't cry over spilled milk spaghetti sauce just yet, because I'm going to let you in on a little secret: The Bissell Little Green Mini carpet cleaner (was $129, now $97) is a super popular way to remove stubborn stains, and it's currently majorly marked down at QVC right now.

And while the $97 price point is good, there's a way to snag an even better deal: If you're new to QVC, you can use the code WELCOME20 to score $20 off orders of $40 or more, bringing this cleaning powerhouse down to $77—the lowest price I've ever seen it.

So, why is the Little Green beloved by so many, including PureWow editors? First and foremost, it’s simple to use and comes with easy-to-follow instructions that take the guesswork out of stain removal. All you need to do is fill it with cleaner and water, turn it on and get to scrubbing and suctioning up stains in the blink of an eye.

"OK, this is pretty impressive and really satisfying," said former social strategist Ali Brown when she tested it for PureWow. "As you can see, the machine doesn't completely remove stain colors from the carpet, but it does a pretty good job of restoring it to a passable condition."

And while the Little Green itself is impressive, the Mini is much more lightweight and portable (7 pounds vs. 10), taking care of our biggest complaint about the machine (lugging it around). Yes, the water tank is smaller, but it's still able to hold 16 ounces of clean water and 13.5 ounces of dirty water, so you can scrub a sofa or carpet without needing to stop and refill (unless you live in a mansion, in which case...jealous).

Moreover, customers say that the machine is relatively quiet and find that it’s a faster, more efficient and, most importantly, more effective way to to kick stubborn stains to the curb versus other methods. (No scrubbing with detergent and a toothbrush here!) Just look at that murky, dirty water in the video above.
