Bissell Big Green BGH-15E 15-Inch Compact Floor Scrubber – 175 RPM, 1.5 HP

Bissell Big Green Commercial BGH-15E 15-Inch Compact Floor Scrubber

The Bissell Big Green Commercial BGH-15E is the compact 15-inch member of the Big Green floor machine line — built for tight commercial spaces where a 17-inch chassis cannot maneuver. The 1.5 HP motor at 175 RPM runs through a triple-planetary high-torque transmission for sustained scrubbing, stripping, and shampooing. The all-metal polished aluminum chassis weighs 104 lbs, providing the pad pressure needed for finish-stripping while keeping the smaller footprint that distinguishes the BGH-15E from its 17-inch siblings.

Where the BGH-15E Sits in the Bissell Big Green Lineup:

• BGH-15E (this machine) — 15-inch compact, single-speed 175 RPM, for narrow corridors and small commercial suites
• BGH-17E — 17-inch heavy-duty stripping, single-speed 175 RPM, larger pad pressure for full-zone refinishing
• BGTS-17 — 17-inch dual-speed 175/300 RPM, scrub and buff in one machine
• The BGH-15E is the choice when work zones are physically tight — restrooms, small office suites, narrow back-of-house corridors, school classrooms — and a 17-inch chassis cannot turn

BGH-15E Compact Build and Maneuverability

• 15-Inch Cleaning Width — turns inside small restrooms and office cubicle aisles
• 1.5 HP Motor at 175 RPM — full commercial torque for spray buffing, scrubbing, stripping, and shampooing despite the smaller pad diameter
• Triple-Planetary Transmission — same high-torque gearbox used in the BGH-17E
• Fully Adjustable Handle Position — makes operating easy and comfortable
• All-Metal Polished Aluminum Chassis — 104 lbs of operating weight provides pad pressure suited to stripping work despite the smaller footprint
• 5-Year Motor and Gearbox Warranty — same coverage as the BGH-17E
• Non-Conductive Dual Triggers + Interlock Switch — both hands stay in control of the machine
• 50-Foot 14/3 Safety Cord + 6-Inch Non-Marking Wheels — single-outlet coverage for full classrooms and corridors; non-marking wheel compound protects finished floors during machine repositioning

Where the BGH-15E Is Deployed

School districts use the BGH-15E for restroom floor refinishing where 17-inch machines do not fit between fixtures, and for narrow back-corridor cleaning programs where width matters more than capacity. Healthcare facilities deploy it in patient rooms, exam rooms, and treatment areas where the 17-inch BGH-17E or BGTS-17 cannot maneuver around medical equipment, beds, and fixed millwork. Office building service contractors run the BGH-15E in private executive offices, small conference rooms, and around modular furniture where larger machines cannot operate. Restaurant and retail back-of-house cleaning teams use it in stockrooms, prep areas, and kitchen access corridors with limited turn radius.
