When you're using the BISSELL Revolution HydroSteam Pet Carpet Cleaner (model 3432), the time it takes for your carpet to dry can depend on a few things like how thick the carpet is, how humid it is, and how much air is moving around in the room.

Generally, you can expect it to dry in 2 to 4 hours, though it might take longer if the room isn't well-ventilated or if the carpet is really thick.

Our research points out that the cleaner's dual-tank system is pretty handy since it keeps clean and dirty water separate, preventing any mixing during cleaning.

However, a few people have mentioned that the tanks need to be refilled and emptied quite often, especially if you're cleaning a big area. The tanks hold about a gallon, which is pretty standard, but it means you'll have to pay attention to them quite regularly during long cleaning tasks.

The HydroSteam Technology is supposed to pack a punch with steam and deep cleaning to tackle tough stains and dirt, according to how the manufacturer describes it.

But, there's no separate tank for the cleaning solution, which some folks find wasteful. Even so, it seems to do a good job on pet messes, so it's popular with pet owners.

Keep in mind that the airflow in your room can impact how fast your carpet dries. Good ventilation, like opening windows or using fans, can really speed things up.

So, while it's a powerful cleaner, especially for pet owners, just be prepared for shorter cleaning sessions and take into account the drying time.

And don’t forget about keeping an eye on the tanks and making sure the room has good airflow for the best drying results.

The BISSELL Revolution HydroSteam 3432 Pet Carpet Cleaner offers several cleaning modes, with the Steam Pretreat Mode standing out. This feature is really useful for those tough, tracked-in messes. It uses steam to loosen dirt before the main cleaning cycle kicks in. According to the manufacturer's product description, this mode combines hot steam with professional-grade cleaning solutions, which can be particularly helpful for dealing with challenging pet messes.

From our research, it seems people have mixed experiences with the steam feature. Some folks love how well it pre-treats stubborn stains, but others say its effectiveness can depend on the initial water temperature. Using hotter water seems to boost steam production and, in turn, improve cleaning power.

Keep in mind that how the steam feature works can vary based on the mode you choose. In the Steam Pretreat Mode, steam is used on its own to focus on problem spots before the actual cleaning begins. This helps loosen grime, making the subsequent cleaning more effective.

If you're facing persistent stains, using this pre-treatment can make a big difference in getting your carpets really clean.

So, if you're dealing with tough cleaning challenges, the Steam Pretreat Mode on the BISSELL Revolution HydroSteam 3432 might be exactly what you need for a more thorough clean.

If you've got pets and are tired of dealing with their messes on your carpets, the BISSELL Revolution HydroSteam Pet Carpet Cleaner could be up your alley. Our research shows it's good at handling pet stains thanks to its steam function, which helps lift stubborn marks and freshen up your carpet.

While it mainly focuses on carpet cleaning, it also comes with a tool for rugs and upholstery. But if you're thinking of using it on hard floors, it might not be your best bet. The manufacturer points out that it's really designed for carpets and upholstery, so it might not shine on bare floors.

One cool feature is the Quick Dry Mode, which can get your carpets dry in about 30 minutes. That said, how well this works can depend on your carpet's type and the environment you're in.

Do keep in mind, though, this cleaner uses a fair bit of water, so you might find yourself refilling it more often during a cleaning spree. But that's part of why it does well with pesky pet stains and odors, especially if you're sticking to the carpeted areas.

All in all, if you're looking to tackle pet stains on carpets and upholstery, this cleaner is a solid choice.

For bare floors, you might want to look into something made for multi-surface use.
