Bissell BARKBATH Dual Use Portable Dog Bath & Deep Cleaner, 2592 (3rd Gen),Grey

I have a cavalier king charles spaniel (best thing on the planet, I love him), and this bark bath is truly amazing. I like to keep things clean, but I also like to have him play and get dirty. I tried paw rinsers and those pretty much all sucked, even the ones that were highly rated on amazon, as they still left a dirty residue on the paws that would get tracked around. This on the other hand removes all the mud, dirt, etc from his paws which is awesome.Of course, for the full-on bath time, my cav and I love it as well. We used to wash him in a bathtub, and there was SO MUCH water wasted, and he came out SOPPING wet. He hated it, so very, very much. This uses hardly any water, and where he is damp, he isn't close at all to being sopping wet. He hates being sopping wet, so using the bark bath is perfect. Plus, the shampoo is excellent, and hardly any is used up after each full bath (cavs are small dogs). I use the "Fine" and "Medium" heads which do the job well. Also, when tub bathing him I would always be concerned about water entering his ears, but not anymore! The hose really does provide the precision to allay this concern.Water can get on the floor while using this and you can get a bit on yourself too, but duh, you're giving your dog a bath? I don't understand some of the reviews at all. Just put a towel down at the spot you bathe the dog like the instructions say, don't wear clothing that you'd wear on a fine-dining date while washing the dog (unless that's your thing) and you'll be fine. Docking stars because a tiny puddle of water got on the floor is stupid, and also shows that either the towels they are using suck, they aren't using towels at all, or they are just entitled snobs. /shrug. I also followed the desensitization instructions included, to make my little guy accustomed to the noise, which worked well.Lastly, the self-cleaning function is amazing. It's the best thing ever. After the whole bath ordeal, you just switch nozzle heads, turn the machine on and run it for a bit, and boom, done. Hose is cleaned. I hate cleaning hoses, and this solved the issue. Nozzle cleaning and tub cleaning is super easy as well, just dump out the dirty water, rine out the tank, and then rinse the heads and air let dry.All together, much quicker than: prepping and using tub, washing dog with shampoo in tub, towel drying soppy dog, hot air drying said soppy dog, then cleaning dirty tub and putting away nasty towel and hot air dryer. Also uses much less of my own energy, since like my cav, I am a sleepy one and run on low energy. So this is quicker and much less of a hassle. Such a good machine!

We have 2 English Springer Spaniels, 9 months old , a male 60# and female 45#. They have beautiful soft coats after bathing but bending over the bathtub was killing my back, so I searched for a better way to bathe them.I own a Bissell Carpet Cleaner that does a great job on the carpet and was looking for an attachment for the stairs and I came across their BarkBath 2nd Gen with relatively high reviews but was concerned about the noise. Then I saw the 3rd Gen was being released in Dec. that mentioned it to be quieter then the 2nd Gen. So I decided to order it, before it was released and even before I saw any reviews for the BarkBath 3rd Generation.I used it yesterday for the first time, on both dogs and was surprised at how quiet it was sitting on the microfiber mat that they supply with the unit. The sound was less than a blow dryer and this was right next to them. They both sat their patiently while they were 'washed". I was a little concerned about using a "no rinse shampoo" leaving their hair heavy but even without having to perform an extra rinse, their hair was just as soft as after a normal bath and they do not seem to mind it. I was also amazed at the amount of dirt that came through dirty water tank.The only adjustments we needed to do was to make the water hotter than we would normally use. We used warm water from the tap but by the time it got to the dogs through the hose it was cold. (but test this first on your hands before your dog) We did make it much warmer and this seemed to then be warm enough by the time it reached the dog. The cords and hoses were long enough.We pulled out their hard plastic kennel liner and placed it on top of their kennel to perform the wash without bending over and to be inside the house. Very little water dripped and they were damp but did not need to be toweled off afterwards.I really like how everything is compact including grooming clips in their tray and lightweight. This will be much more convenient and less cleanup than using the bathtub. The training steps are helpful for noise sensitive or anxious dogs, mine did very well and were quite comfortable.My only suggestion to Bissell would be to allow the spray nozzle to swivel a little bit at the hose.

I was torn about getting this. The old model had mixed reviews but this newer one seemed like it had improved on its issues so I decided to try it. I used the oatmeal shampoo that is made for the machine because my one lab has allergies. We ended up giving two full grown labs and a full grown Saint Bernard a bath with it. We put down a blanket in our living room and had the dogs stay on it during their bath in case there eas any puddling of water. We really didn’t need it. Except for a little bit of water that dropped from the front where the comb is it did a great job of distributing the water/shampoo and sucking it back in. We had less dripping with the labs but I think it’s because of the long hair on the Saint Bernard which required more water/shampoo being distributed. I took some trial and error to get the right comb combinations but once we figured that out it was easy to use and all three dogs were fine with the noise the machine made. None of them required extra drying and their coat felt only slightly damp. Their fur was soft and felt and smelled clean afterwards. The machine was easy enough to rinse out when done. My only complaint was the amount of dirty water that the unit holds. The container itself is huge but there’s a line about 1/4 of the way up and that’s the fill line. Once you hit the fill line the unit shuts off and you need to empty it out. Not a real big deal but the first time it shut off we were confused and thought it was clogged somewhere because the dirty tank had so much room left in it. Once we figured out why it was shutting off we just kept an eye on it and cleaned it out quicker. Overall I’m very pleased with the product and love that their baths can be done in the living room.

Si tienes un perro loco, esta es tu señal para comprar la aspiradora😆 Estoy ENAMORADA de esta aspiradora! Amo que es un poco más económica que la little green y tiene más aditamentos y funciones. Tengo dos perros, uno mediano (cruza de viejo pastor) y un mini (el desastroso), los deja super limpios! Y con el pelo suave. Eso sí, primero hay que cepillarlos. Para lavar los sillones/ tapices sirve también perfecto!!! Este es el antes y el después de lavado de mi sillón cuando mi perro decidió que era buena idea tirarle una maceta entera encima. Super recomendado!

It's been now almost 6 months that I have bought this device. I can't give a feedback on the device itself as it was defective. I have reported it and tried to contact the seller at least in order to replace it but they were not co-operative at all. Amazon did not help either, saying that the purchase is from a third-party seller and I should contact the supplier of Bissell in Saudi Arabia for repair. The supplier does not repair it saying that they don't have this model available. At the moment I have a defective device at home for which I have paid almost 1,200 SAR!!UPDATEEditing on my previous review:Approx. 1 month after submitting my review Amazon finally processed the refund as I could not get any confirmation from the supplier. Btw I have also tried to contact Bissell head quarters in the US but they simply refused to help saying that I am not living in the US or Canada and so they cannot do anything for me!

This is the best pet related purchase I have ever made. Super easy to use. You literally follow basically the same procedure you use when cleaning your carpet. One pass applying shampoo and a second to suck the water and shampoo up. Never has my dogs been so dry after a wash. It cleans deeper than any hand shampoo. Our one Poodle mix has been itching for what seems like forever. We have tried everything including pills and nothing stop the itching. One bath with this unit and 90% of the itching went away. We have used it on Labs, poodle and corgie hair type and works great regardless of the type of hair. Quiet enough not to set off a normally skiddish corgie. Being so clean we actually bath them less frequently. Very satisfied customer.

The media could not be loaded. Cumple bien su función. Pero después de un rato ya no succionaba bien el agua. La tenia q apagar y encender de nuevo. Todos sus artículos llegaron completos y en buen estado.

Good for deep coats and was super easy to use. Dog was much dryer after, than normal bathing. Noise was not bad dog calmed after first few minutes. Works great !
