Overview of the Little Green Lineup

The original Bissell Little Green spot cleaners have long been a favorite among consumers. The lineup includes several standard-sized portable spot cleaners, each equipped with a range of attachments and sufficient water capacity for extended cleaning. With the introduction of the Little Green Mini, Bissell aims to address consumers’ desire for an even lighter, more compact option without sacrificing essential functionality.

Introducing the Little Green Mini

Bissell offers the Little Green Mini in two configurations: a corded version, which provides unlimited runtime when plugged into an outlet, and a cordless version, which allows for unrestricted movement and is especially convenient in spaces where outlets are not readily available.

Bissell Little Green Mini Portability
Bissell Little Green Mini spot cleaners have a small form that is designed to be highly portable.

Both Mini models weigh just 7 pounds when empty, compared to the 9.6-pound weight of the original Little Green units. This significant reduction in weight makes the Minis easier to carry and maneuver in tight spaces, such as vehicle interiors or between furniture cushions. To achieve their smaller form factor, the Little Green Minis feature 16-ounce clean water tanks—one-third the size of the original Little Green’s 48-ounce tanks.

Cleaning Attachments and Tools

Each Little Green Mini comes equipped with a 4-inch Tough Stain Tool, which is wider than the 3-inch tool included with the original Little Green. This wider tool covers more surface area with each pass, potentially speeding up stain removal.

In addition, the Minis include a handheld hose and common accessories such as crevice and upholstery tools; the corded version also adds an extension wand for reaching higher or more difficult areas.

Bissell Little Green Mini Attachments
Bissell Little Green Mini attachments have three modes for spot removal.

Both Mini models feature Bissell’s HydroRinse self-cleaning hose tool, which simplifies post-use maintenance by flushing debris and detergent from the hose. This feature helps prevent clogs, reduces odors, and keeps the cleaner in optimal condition between cleaning sessions.

Conclusion

With the Little Green Mini corded and cordless models, Bissell is offering a highly portable alternative for quick, targeted stain removal. Their lighter weight and compact design make them especially well-suited for cleaning tight spaces.
