Anyone own a Bissell Little Green?? If so, how do you get it clean?? I think I left the dirty water in the filter side in too long...and when I turned it back on to use it... it smelled like rotten eggs!!
I rinsed and rinsed the filter and it still smells...any ideas????

Maybe try vinegar? If it still smells after you've cleaned the filter a number of times, something else in the cleaner might have...yuck still on it.

You may want to run bleachy water through the filter to clean it, as that will kill any fungus that thought the water was a good place to be. sometimes when I forget I've had something in the wash it's like that, and I just have to bleach it (Here, leaving something in the wash to get mouldy smelling is an overnight affair.)
