Quick Answer: Lowe’s sells carpet cleaners to own, not just to rent — the catalog covers Bissell (ProHeat 2X Revolution Pet Pro Plus, the TurboClean lineup, TurboClean Pet XL) and Shark (CarpetXpert with StainStriker, portable spot cleaners), priced from roughly $60 to $600 with a typical unit landing around $245, per Lowe’s own category data. The catch: Hoover and Tineco don’t appear in Lowe’s catalog at all, so if you’re set on either of those brands, this isn’t the retailer that stocks them. Lowe’s standard 90-day return window matches Target’s and beats Walmart’s 30-day floor-care cutoff, with no membership fee like Costco requires.
Most people searching “carpet cleaner Lowe’s” are trying to figure out one of two things: whether Lowe’s actually sells machines to keep (versus just renting one for a weekend), or which brands show up on the shelf before they drive over. Both are answered below.
Buying vs. renting — two different aisles
Lowe’s runs both a retail floor-care section and a rental counter, and it’s easy to conflate the two. If you want to rent a machine for a one-time deep clean, Lowe’s customer-service desk rents a Bissell Big Green at $39.99 for 24 hours or $49.99 for 48 — the same pricing structure as a grocery-store Rug Doctor kiosk, since Rug Doctor and Bissell Rental merged in 2022. That process is covered in full in our Home Depot rental guide, which compares it directly against Home Depot’s staffed Tool Rental Center. This article is about the separate transaction: buying a carpet cleaner outright from Lowe’s regular vacuum-and-floor-care aisle, to own and use as many times as you want.
What’s actually on the shelf
| Model | Brand | Typical role |
|---|---|---|
| Shark Portable Carpet Cleaner | Shark | Compact spot/stain cleaner |
| Bissell TurboClean PowerBrush | Bissell | Lightweight upright |
| Bissell TurboClean DualPro Pet | Bissell | Pet-focused upright |
| Bissell TurboClean Pet XL | Bissell | 10" wide-path upright |
| Shark CarpetXpert with StainStriker | Shark | Full-size deep cleaner + pretreater |
| Bissell ProHeat 2X Revolution Pet Pro Plus | Bissell | Full-size deep cleaner |
| Bissell Commercial line | Bissell | Higher-end/commercial-grade |
That’s a genuine two-brand lineup — not as deep as Target’s 11-model Bissell-only spread, but broader in brand variety since it mixes in Shark. What’s notably absent: no Hoover SmartWash+ or PowerDash, and no Tineco Carpet One anywhere in Lowe’s catalog. If your shortlist includes either of those, you’ll need Amazon, Walmart, or Target instead.
Bissell ProHeat 2X Revolution Pet Pro Plus
- Same Dual DirtLifter PowerBrush and HeatWave heating system covered in our ProHeat 2X Revolution review.
- Lowe's category page doesn't always surface a fixed price on browse views — some listings use dynamic, store-level pricing rather than a flat number like Amazon shows upfront.
- Lowe's own listing currently shows a sale price of $239.99, marked down from a $279.99 list price — matching the $279.99 list figure we've now confirmed directly on Bissell.com, up from the $237.99 this same model listed at earlier in 2026. Treat Lowe's sale tag as a snapshot, not a guaranteed match on any given day.

The price spread, and why it’s wider than Target’s
Lowe’s own category data puts carpet cleaners anywhere from about $60 to $600, with a typical price around $245. That range is noticeably wider than Target’s $109.99-$329.99 Bissell-only spread, mostly because Lowe’s mixes compact Shark portable spot cleaners at the low end with Bissell Commercial-line units at the high end — two different product tiers Target doesn’t carry side by side. If you’re comparison-shopping a specific model rather than browsing the category, exact online pricing is dynamic and occasionally requires checking a specific store, similar to how Target hides some prices behind “price in cart” rather than showing every number upfront the way Amazon does.
Return policy: matches Target, beats Walmart
Lowe’s standard return policy allows a refund or exchange within 90 days of purchase with a receipt on most unopened, new-condition items — the same window Target offers, and three times longer than Walmart’s 30-day floor-care cutoff. There’s no membership fee involved at all, unlike Costco’s $65/year Gold Star gate. For a carpet cleaner specifically, a 90-day window is useful because problems like weak suction or slow drying often don’t surface until you’ve run the machine across a few different rooms of carpet, not on the first pass.
Bottom line
Lowe’s is a legitimate place to buy a carpet cleaner outright — not just rent one — with a genuine two-brand lineup (Bissell and Shark) spanning roughly $60 to $600, and a 90-day return window that matches Target’s and beats Walmart’s. The real limitation is brand selection: no Hoover, no Tineco, so if either brand tops your list, look elsewhere — Best Buy is the one retailer in this series that carries both, plus open-box and refurbished pricing, though its 15-day return window is far shorter than Lowe’s 90. For the widest single-retailer selection, Target’s Bissell lineup runs deeper; for a Hoover-and-Shark lineup at the same 90-day return window, Home Depot is worth a look too; for guaranteed upfront pricing on every listing, Amazon remains the most consistent comparison point.
