New Rug Doctor Portable Spot Cleaner

**jwgreen6** · 11-24-2013, 07:33 AM

Is this the end of the Little Green Machine from Bissell? Rug Doctor is now selling a portable spot cleaner designed to compete directly with Bissell's spot cleaners for $170.

The Rug Doctor Portable Spot Cleaner sports a powered scrubbing brush and "2X the suction of its competitors". Really? Twice not much is still not much :-0

That looks like a pretty cool machine. I could see myself buying one soon.

Is anyone familiar with this measure?

*Suction tested against leading portable carpet cleaners measuring air watts pursuant to ASTM F558 at cleaner head.

Looks promising...from the video looks like a solid unit. The head looks beafier with more bristles. Competition is a good thing.

I just sold my Mytee cause it breaks down all the time so might get this for 1/4 of the price.

Looks pretty dope... But I don't see anything about it heating water

I'm going to see if I can pick one of these up locally today. If I can find it - expect a review. Anyone know if any local retailer chains carry this?

Well scratch that, nobody seems to have it. I need instant gratification.
