Works better than I expected.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This seems to work better than I expected. My dog took a bit to get used to the sound but when he adjusted, all was fine. It doesn't top a good old bath but its clean and not a mess to clean up after. It's a bit of a pain for a long hair dog but it will get the job done. If you can shampoo a carpet then you can shampoo a dog as it pretty much works the same way. Overall I like this a lot and it saves $ by not having to make so many trips to the groomer for a bath. It makes all the difference in the world once your dog cooperates. I suggest patience and a few treats.

Woofderful!!!

The Bark Bath made giving my German Shepherd a bath so much easier. He was afraid of the machine at first but as the bath went on he adjusted nicely. Using the Bark Bath meant no messy floors and no clean up except for wiping down the machine. Lance loves to roll in stuff that isn't very pleasant to the sense of smell and with this machine cleaning him is a breeze.

Bark Bath excellent all around dog grooming

The Bissell Bark Bath is excellent at grooming dogs. We received our Bark Bath & couldn't wait to try it out. We have a Sheltie which has a lot of hair. The Bark Bath outperformed our wildest expectations. The dog absolutely loved it & it's so easy to use. The dog must have thought he was at the spa, as he seemed to be in a trance with the warm water & soothing motion used to bathe him with the Bark Bath. It was also great being able to Bath him not using the bathtub. The Bark Bath provides an excellent grooming and bathing experience that is equal to or surpasses any high dollar dog grooming salon. I would highly recommend the Bissell Bark Bath for all your dog grooming needs.

Not for small breed dogs

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BISSELL Bark Bath PLUS – Portable Dog Bath System, 1844W seemed to be a great idea and something I really wanted to use with my dogs. Set up for the unit is a little time consuming the first time but not too difficult. After priming the system I used the BISSELL Bark Bath to bathe two of my dogs. The noise level is that of a vacuum cleaner and my dogs are used to that so they were not bothered by it. I own small breed dogs and the first issue I had with the bathing unit is the size of the nozzle; a bit large for a smaller dog body which makes it a bit awkward to manipulate. My dogs still needed to be towel dried because the suctioning could not reach all of their body areas. I think this bathing unit would be handy for large breed dogs that have larger body areas to clean. It is much simpler to put my small breed dogs in the bathtub and bathe them in just a few minutes which is less time than it takes to assemble the Bark Bath.

Would advise anyone with adog to invest in this product !

My pup, even though she has lab in her is terrified of water, bath time has always been a struggle until I purchased BarkBath !! It was simple to set up & use ( if you can operate a carpet cleaner you got his ! ) After the initial "what are you doing to me now " look, she soon became very comfortable & relaxed and seemed to be thoroughly enjoying the bath . Used less water & clean up was a breeze which left more time for cuddles & smoochies !! Absolutely love this product , great investment if you love your dog :)

5 out of 5 stars review

Bye bye groomer!

Both of my dogs are hospital therapy dogs, which means they have to be bathed weekly. Instead of visiting the groomer and paying $50+ each time, now I groom at home! It takes about 15 minutes per dog, no mess, the dogs are fluffy and clean. I just wish I could donate one to every dog rescue in the country (starting with Murphy's former home, Daphneyland in Acton, CA)!

Barking Fun

Great little machine. Once you get that look of sheer terror of your dogs face's!! Just kidding. Follow the acclimation instructions given with the product. Especially if you brush your dog or cat. Start by brushing them with your brush, next to machine after they have smelled and made friends with it. Lol. Brush them and then p/u Brush and hose assembly and get them used to it. My digs love to be brushed and did not take but a few days for them to forget about the hose. Now, the vacuum noise is another matter since most dogs prefer to attack a vacuum, let alone, suck on them. I put my machine inside and pulled hose and soap dispenser thru dog door and all they had to contend with was the sucking noise. Start low on the back, then soap and water that area and just keep brushing them without dispensing more soap or water until they seem comfortable and work your way up. Before you know it, they'll be enjoying it. Only problem is they have no type of flea shampoos!?! That's a no brainer. And a necessary product. If they don't come out with one. I will use a low foam dip and put in shampoo or if this does not work I will use just flea dip. That's why I only give four stars, since that is something they should have begun with. Enjoy, Trapper

I wouldn't recommend this product for most dogs

I have an 80lb white German Shepherd who is a year old and spends about 70% of the time outside. So needless to say he stays pretty dirty. But Nothing really bothers him so I figured I'd try the bark bath QT out. For starters if this is quieter than the original than I pity the people who have the louder version. I ended up putting it in the other room and tried to shut the door as much as possible. I'm not one to give up to easily so I tried it three times prior to writing the review and ultimately I'd say this is a waste of money. It's a great idea and I was super excited about it! But greatly let down by bissel. It gets the dog too wet and doesn't suck hard enough to actually dry the dog. It doesn't get deep enough on a thick coat even with the face plate removed. And it doesn't have any method of scrubbing to get really dirty spots out. Ultimately if you had a small short haired dog that never got dirty this product would probably do a decent job at keeping him clean. If you have a decent sized family dog that plays with the kids and gets dirty than you will be completely disappointed. The three times I used this bark bath I spent over 45 min and still ended up with a dirty dog and a room that smelt and was a mess. I do not recommend this product and I'm hoping bissel will stand by their money back guarantee, but if it's anyhjng like their product I'm ready to be let down once again.

Bath any one

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Dog Bath System is great. At first knowing how to do it may take a time or two. But after that it is a great system. It is all in one. It is a easy way of bathing your dog , puppy. In stead of fighting with your dog out side or inside the tub its very easy. And cant afford to take your best friend to get a bath you can easily do it at your house. If a friend or a family member needs to give their best friend a bath you can take it to their house. No problem. And when you are done the unit cleans up really good. No problems there. And you cant go wrong with a Bissell product.

Comes Out Cold

I followed the directions and used warm water however when I start using the cleaner on my dog the vacuum itself makes the soap & water FREEZING. I've tried researching what to do but from the research I have done I have not figured out how to get it warm. I feel like I wasted my money

Sorry for the cold water! Because of the long hose, it may take a few seconds for the warm water to spray out as the machine works through any remaining water in the spray line from your previous use. If the machine has been unused for a while, the water in the line could be cold. Press and hold the trigger on the hose to spray out this water into your sink or a bowl before use and until you feel warm water coming out. Hope this helps!
