A new puppy means new messes—and Nate Berkus knows the drill. In a recent Instagram post, the designer revealed the under-$100 gadget that's turned life with a four-legged tornado into something resembling clean.
"This thing has changed my life," Berkus says, waving the Bissell Little Green Mini like a trophy. "Honestly, there are moments when I love this machine more than the puppy—and I'm only half joking."
Berkus may be famous for magazine-worthy rooms, but he's also a self-diagnosed Virgo who admits, "I hate dirt, I hate disorganization." So when a suspicious damp spot shows up on the rug—"I'm blaming the dog, though jury's still out," he jokes—he wants a solution that doesn't require summoning a cleaning crew.
The mini machine combines serious suction with a spritz of cleaning solution to yank stains and smells out of fabric and carpet. "Clean water goes here, dirty water goes there," Berkus explains, as if demonstrating a magic trick. "And yes, it works on the sofa!" In one satisfying motion, he lifts a stain and dumps the murky water down the drain, hoisting the device like a proton pack. "Call it my home version of Ghostbusters."
The comments section agrees: followers call it a "magic maker" and a certified "game changer" for pet parents. And around the Domino offices, this little green sidekick has a devoted fan club for keeping couches, rugs, and dining chairs looking civilized—especially in households ruled by kids, pets, or the chaotic combo of both. It hides in a closet until duty calls, then it's the first responder of furniture rescue.
Berkus's caption poses the only question that matters: "Is there such a thing as an emotional support Little Green Mini?" Around here, we're voting yes—and we'd cuddle it if it weren't slightly damp.
