The BISSELL CrossWave HydroSteam PET combines three cleaning functions in one machine. This all-in-one device vacuums wet and dry debris whilst simultaneously steam cleaning your floors.
What makes this cleaner special? The HydroSteam technology increases cleaning efficiency by up to 20% compared to standard wet vacuums. It removes stubborn sticky dirt that regular mopping cannot tackle.
Key features include LED headlights for spotting hidden dirt, automatic self-cleaning cycle and tangle-free brush roll technology. The double tank system keeps clean and dirty water separate. At 5.67kg, it's lightweight enough for daily use across hard floors and carpets.
Yes, the HydroSteam technology increases cleaning efficiency by up to 20% compared to standard wet cleaning. The steam function works by heating water to create steam that loosens stubborn and sticky dirt that regular mopping might miss. This is particularly effective on dried-on spills, pet messes and ground-in dirt. The steam also kills 99.9% of Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella aerogenes bacteria, providing a more hygienic clean than traditional mopping methods.
The tangle-free technology prevents pet hair from wrapping around the brush roll during cleaning. This is achieved through a specially designed brush roll that allows hair to pass through without getting caught. Pet owners report that even with long-haired cats and dogs, the hair doesn't get stuck on the brush. This means less maintenance time spent removing tangled hair and more consistent suction performance throughout your cleaning session.
The CrossWave HydroSteam works on multiple surface types including hard floors like tiles, laminate, sealed wood and vinyl, as well as area rugs and low-pile carpets. The steam function is particularly effective on hard floors where it can sanitise the surface. However, you should avoid using the steam function on unsealed wood floors or delicate surfaces that might be damaged by heat and moisture.
The double tank system keeps clean water completely separate from dirty water throughout the cleaning process. Fresh water and cleaning solution are stored in one tank, while dirty water and debris are collected in a separate tank. This ensures you're always mopping with clean water rather than spreading dirty water around your floors. The system maintains this separation even during the vacuuming process, so debris doesn't contaminate your clean water supply.
The automatic self-cleaning cycle is highly effective at maintaining the machine between uses. The process takes just a few minutes and cleans both the brush roll and the internal water pathways. Users report that this feature significantly reduces maintenance effort and keeps the machine ready for immediate use. The self-cleaning function helps prevent odours and bacterial growth that can occur when cleaning equipment isn't properly maintained.
The machine operates at 76 dB, which is comparable to a washing machine or dishwasher. While it's not silent, most users find the noise level acceptable for regular household cleaning. Pet owners report that their animals typically adjust to the sound quickly. The LED headlights help you see what you're cleaning without needing to make multiple passes, which can reduce overall cleaning time and noise exposure.
Beyond the automatic self-cleaning cycle, you'll need to empty and rinse the dirty water tank after each use and occasionally clean the filter. The clean water tank should be emptied and rinsed if you're not planning to use the machine for an extended period. The brush roll may need occasional manual cleaning if you encounter particularly stubborn debris, though the tangle-free design minimises this need. Regular filter maintenance ensures optimal suction performance.
The machine weighs 5.67kg, making it relatively lightweight for a multi-function cleaning appliance. However, some users find it heavy to carry upstairs due to its size and the water tanks. The machine is designed to be pushed and pulled across floors rather than lifted frequently. For multi-level homes, you might want to consider storing cleaning solution on each floor to avoid carrying the full machine up and down stairs regularly.
