Listen: We all make mistakes. Case in point? Buying a white rug, despite your pup's tendency to track mud into the house or your toddler's habit of throwing food on the floor. But don't cry over spilled milk spaghetti sauce just yet, because I'm going to let you in on a little secret: The Bissell Little Green carpet cleaner is a super popular way to remove stubborn stains, and just in time for the holidays, it's currently marked down to $99 (from $124)—which is the lowest price we've seen since Amazon's Cyber Monday event. That means that Prime members can get it in time for Christmas and Hanukkah—either as a gift for the neat freak in your life (or for yourself to tidy before everyone arrives). So below, find everything you need to know about the viral gadget.

So, why is the Little Green beloved by so many, including our own PureWow editors? First and foremost, it’s simple to use and comes with easy-to-follow instructions that take the guesswork out of stain removal. All you need to do is fill it with cleaner and water, turn it on and get to scrubbing and suctioning up stains in the blink of an eye.

"OK, this is pretty impressive and really satisfying," said former social strategist Ali Brown when she tested it for PureWow. "As you can see, the machine doesn't completely remove stain colors from the carpet, but it does a pretty good job of restoring it to a passable condition."

Thanks to the Little Green's compact size, it can get in hard-to-reach places a lot easier than other cleaning machines or methods. (Plus, you won't have to get your hands dirty.) Moreover, customers say that the machine is relatively quiet and find that it’s a faster, more efficient and, most importantly, more effective way to to kick stubborn stains to the curb versus other methods. (No scrubbing with detergent and a toothbrush here!) Just look at that murky, dirty water in the video above.

The portable machine also comes with all the tools you need, including a self-cleaning hose, a brush head and a stain remover spray. It's also equipped with two holding tanks, one for cleaner and one for collecting dirt. Oh, and despite the Little Green’s, well, little size, it can hold up to 48 ounces of cleaner at a time, so you won't drain the tank after each use.

If that wasn't enough to convince you, I should also mention that the Little Green is backed by more than more than 68,000 five-star reviews on Amazon, all from shoppers proclaiming its superpowers. One reviewer even went so far as to say, “I am absolutely obsessed with this thing—I wish I had more rugs to clean.”

So if you have a persistent stain or two (or ten), don't worry—the BLG can handle it. Finally bid adieu to those spots for good and save a few bucks while you're at it. Bottom line? If you're debating whether you should try the Little Green for yourself, or gift it to someone (who you know needs it), the time is definitely now.
