Bissell Velocity Dual Cyclonic Upright Vacuum - 3950 Review

Bissell Velocity Dual Cyclonic Upright Vacuum - 3950
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
[...]
Now to be honest, this is a girly looking vacuum. It looks kinda purplish and two toned at that, in fact, Bissell calls it a Dark Cherry Fiz color. However, my wife liked the color, so that was a selling point for her. It also weighs considerably less than the Dirt Devil did, which was also a major selling point for both my wife and myself. (Yes, I do vacuum when nagged enough!)

So I brought it home, took it out of the box, and after 3 screws and 15 minutes later, the vacuum was put together. I found the assembly very easy to do, and the instructions quite straight forward.

Observations:
Right away I turned on the vacuum and found it very easy to maneuver. The adjustments for the floor height were easy to turn and it actually quieter than my Dirt Devil. All good things to me. Of course my wife and I took off the hose and tested the suction strength on each other, like the cheek, arm, and hair. Very impressive suction strength! Then my 2 yr. old son got upset because he thought that the vacuum was hurting us, so we stopped laughing and put the vacuum hose back.

I then vacuumed up a small patch of carpet in our spare bedroom, which I only use for my office, but right away my wife yelled at me to turn it off. She pointed out the amount of dust spiralling around the canister, which looked really cool! The cyclonic feature really works! There was a good amount of dust and debris already in the canister. We were both amazed at home much this vacuum had picked up, especially when this room had been vacuumed with the Dirt Devil just last week. Also, the carpet seemed to be fluffier. The 12 amps of power and extra wide 15 inch brush are very effective at cleaning our carpets.

I was also impressed with the fact that there are 2 filters on this vacuum. One just beneath the canister and a HEPA filter on the side of the vacuum where the air is returned to the room. Also both of these filters are very easy to find, remove, and replace. The canister also is very easy to remove, clean, and replace. A simple locking arm swings to one side to release the canister, then slides back to lock it in place.

There is also an indicator which changes colors based on the quality of air flow. If it is green, then things are well and air is moving freely. If it turns red then the airflow has become reduced, and if it turns black then there is something blocking the airflow completely. It is very easy to remove the entire hose, you just simply turn the hose on the back of the vacuum until it releases the hose, then you can clear away any blockages that might be in the way.

The hose is 14 feet long. However, I have not needed to use this feature as of yet, but it is very flexible and stretches easily. The Bissell Velocity Vacuum also comes complete with the dusting brush, TurboBrush, Curved Hose Wand, Extension Wand, and Crevice Tool. The power chord is extremely long at 35 feet, but can be a hassle when you only need a small amount of it for a smaller room. However, it is great when vacuuming a large room, or multiple rooms close to each other!

The TurboBrush also works great. I used it to vacuum off the stairs and my car. Again the 12 amps of suction strength is evident when the brush gets up to full speed. It really spins fast! I can even press it fairly strong into the carpet and it still spins.

There was mention that this vacuum seemed to tip over easily, and that is true. I tested this out on both carpet and bare floor. A good nudge or bump anywhere above the Turbo brush will send it falling backwards. Locking wheels would probably have helped in keeping this from happening. If you are going to be pulling on the hose to bring the vacuum closer to you, it is best to do this if the hose is attached to the handle at the bottom of the vacuum. However, I would not recommend this type of action.

Some people had issues with the power switch being on the front of the vacuum. This is not an issue for me. It is near enough the handle that it takes nothing to reach down and flip it off.

Conclusion
There isn't much about this vacuum that I don't like. It is lightweight, powerful, and easy to use. It is a little back heavy and can tip over fairly easily, and the power chord can be a nuisance because of its length, but those are minor problems.

For the money, you really can't go wrong with this vacuum. It will leave your carpets clean, fluffed, and your air filtered. What more can you ask for?

Dirt Devil Dynamite Plus Upright Vacuum Review

Dirt Devil Dynamite Plus Upright Vacuum
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I got this vacuum for thirty bucks so keep that in mind. There are units out there that cost ten times that. So how does the Dynamite Plus stack up?It sucks!Very, very well.I don't think I have ever used a vaccum that had such powerful suction. I bought a Dirt Devil cordless unit (the one that no one seems to like) about a year ago and it was garbage. I wondered if anyone really needed cordless while in the confines of their own home. Most likely not. Why not trade the dubious benefits of cordless for maximum sucking power? For the price there is proably no vacuum made that is more powerful. So why only 4 stars? Despite a vacuum that seems well built, convenient, light, bagless, portable, etc., there is one thing that is insanely ridiculous about the Dynamite Plus' design. All of that powerful suckiing power shoots right out a front grill of the vacuum.Like a tornado!!!!The first time I used it was in the kitchen it it literally blew all of the photos and notes off my refrigerator. The next time bordered on slapstick comedy if I could have considered it funny. I was vacuuming the hearth of my fireplace and the tornado-like exhaust fan blew ashes from the fireplace all over my living room!!!Who in their right mind would design a vacuum with a jet engine strong exhaust fan right in front pointing at the very dust and dirt you are going to vacuum?Final thought ... the plastic recepticle fills up very fast. I vacuumed what I thought was a clean tile floor in the kitchen and the dirt container was full. I emptied it and vacuumed my staircase and the dirt bag was full.Is this a bad thing?How can it be? The Dynamite Plus is sucking in dirt that I didn't even know existed. That's the whole reason I vacuum. So I would rate this as the best bargain of any vacuum I have ever seen except for that silly design flaw. It's not at all a reason to not purchase this vacuum. You just have to know how to avoid pointing it at things like fireplace ashes. Bottom line is I have never owned a vacuum with as much suction. This thing is dirt cheap for what it does.

Hoover Uh70085 Pet Cyclonic™ Upright Vacuum Review

Hoover Uh70085 Pet Cyclonicâ„¢ Upright Vacuum
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This vacuum walks circles around my 10-year-old Hoover Windtunnel bagged vacuum. If you have kids and pets, you vacuum daily like I do. My home is small and so is my budget, so this affordable model covers all the bases for me. Emptying the collection bin is a bit messy, but it is worth it to me to never have to purchase bags again. I empty it into a closed grocery bag, and I'm sure I'll get better at this over time. With a lot of cat hair to pick up that has been left behind by my old vacuum, I have had to brush off the filter several times, again, not a big deal to me. The hose is sturdy and long, and the cord rewind feature is a plus. I like the fact that the beater does not run when the vacuum is in the upright position, and has an on-off switch for hard floors. It does make a squeaking noise when stopping and starting, which troubles me a bit. I only gave this product 4 stars for now, but will update after owning for a few more months.

Bissell Momentum Upright Vacuum, Bagless, 82G71 Review

Bissell Momentum Upright Vacuum, Bagless, 82G71
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We were fed up with our top-of-the-line Kenmore vacuum, which we bought in the hopes that a more expensive machine would also be more effective than the previous Hoovers and Eurekas that we suffered with. But that expensive monster was a nightmare from day one till the very end...and we decided that it might be better for us to buy a cheaper machine and replace it every year. We got recommendations from friends of ours to try out Bissell vacuum, and reviews on Amazon pointed us to this line of vacuums. We couldn't wait for it to be shipped to us, so we went to Target and found it on sale for $89. Yay!

Came home, took it out of the box, and discovered that the hose had to be attached, which was a bit of a challenge to the men of our household ;) But after that, it was good to go. And boy, does it ever go!!! It sucks stuff right out of the carpet, tends to take out a good bit of lint too, and the dust cup got filled very fast the first couple times we vacuumed our house. I think we had to empty the cup a few times the first time we vacuumed! So, that was very rewarding.

It's been a few months now that we've had this machine, and it's still behaving itself. The only thing that seems a bit weak is the hose, which got twisted out of shape at the head end, but we can live with that. It still has the same suction power, and doesn't cause us any undue grief, and if it does, I believe the hose is easy to replace.

The dust cup is nice...I was wary of going the bag-less route, but the convenience of this surprised me pleasantly. Empty the cup into a grocery bag once the dust has settled (we do it before we run it again, rather than after a vacuum session) so that dust does not rise up in a soft cloud. There is an indicator light which tells you when the machine is not at its optimum suctioning power, and this is beyond useful! Wash your filter when the indicator goes to red, and you'll be back to normal.

The 35 (or 40?) foot cord is very nice. Make sure you do not get it trapped underneath the brush, as the cord's outer coating will get worn off; you will be an unhappy person when that happens! (A bit of electrical tape will take care of it when it happens, though.)

I took off one star because of the somewhat weakly-constructed hose, and the fact that the brushes can't be turned off when using the attachments or doing bare floors.

Happy vacuuming!

Eureka 8811AVZ Pet Lover&#174 Deluxe Upright Vacuum Review

Eureka 8811AVZ Pet Lover&#174 Deluxe Upright Vacuum
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have a Eureka TrueClean(which appears to not be sold anymore) and love it, the first time I used it, just after my Dirt Devil(have had terrible experience with those) broke - The canister was packed halfway full with dirt from just my living room.Disgusting! but says A LOT about the quality of Eurekas in that they pick up EVERYTHING.So when my grandfather's old vacuum broke this week I told him, get a Eureka and don't bother with anything else.Same experience for him.I vacuumed just his living room and the canister was halfway FULL of dirt.over the whole house I more than filled the canister (though I emptied it after each area)

Anyways- he actually got the 8810AVZ model called "In-Reach" which I can't find anywhere online but, it seems to be the same as this one 8811AVZ just with different packaging.It works great-picks up everything.pretty quiet.easy to put together.however, I agree that the canister is not the easiest to empty.I actually prefer the open top canister to just turn over and dump out.this one flips open on the bottom and it took me a couple minutes to get it to pop open the first time. I am not sure how durable this function will be.also this vacuum causes a static shock (I was wearing pants and it was a mild shock, when my leg hit the vacuum - many times while I was vacuuming for my grandfather-not a big deal to me but others may be more sensitive.)

Definitely get a Eureka if you are looking for a vacuum in this price range. but I would prefer the open top canister to the flip-bottom canister.

Dirt Devil Extreme Quick Vacuum UD40195 Review

Dirt Devil Extreme Quick Vacuum UD40195
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This little vacuum is lite in weight, has decent suction from the base and the canister is easy to empty with a push of a button. However, those are the only good features about this vacuum. The hose has very little suction. It wouldn't even pick up small fake Christmas tree needles, which are VERY light weight. The canister design on the vacuum is horrible. The piece at the bottom of the filter fits almost to the sides of the canister and doesn't let anything through so it clogs easily and constantly. Which defeats the purpose of an easy push of a button dispenser. I am always having to empty the canister out by hand and then having to take the canister off of the vacuum to dig out what is stuck in the path to the canister since it is constantly backing up. On our main level which is about 1200 sq feet and half of it being hard floors. When vacuuming, I empty the canister by hand and dig the fuzz and dirt about 4-6 times each time I vacuum. (Usually 3 times a week) Needless to say, I spend as much time cleaning it out than I do vacuuming. I will be going back to the store to buy a Hoover!

Bissell Lift-Off MultiCyclonic Pet Upright Vacuum with Detachable Canister, Bagless, 89Q9 Review

Bissell Lift-Off MultiCyclonic Pet Upright Vacuum with Detachable Canister, Bagless, 89Q9
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Must-have features:
- Suction power.Great suction power.
- Lift-off feature.For use on stairs.
- Bagless.
- Dedicated on-off switch for brush.To vacuum wood floor without brush.
- Brush automatically turns off when unit is at upright position.Save brush and carpet wear-and-tear when using attachments.
- Furniture protection rubber guard.

Nice-to-have features, but not absolutely needed:
- Pet brush."Pet" model means unit come with a Turbo Pet Brush attachment.Pet brush has rubber claws, which grab hair as you rake the surface of carpet or sofa.It is somewhat useful, but not to die for.Buy the Lift-Off models only if you want the must-have features.You can buy the Turbo Pet Brush attachment separately for $29.

Useless features (just marketing):
- Head light.

I was interested in buying the Bissell Lift-Off, but there is lack of info on the web to compare the 2 Bissell Lift-off models: Multiclylonic (89Q9) and Revolution.Rather than just a generic review, I will try to describe the difference between Lift-Off Revolution and Multicyclonic.Their sucking power seems similar.The visible differences are (1) dirt container, (2) upper tank right above the dirt container, and color.

(1) Dirt Container.Multicylconic and Revolution has different design.Small advantage to Multicyclonic.Multicylonic has 2 compartments; 1 cylinder in center and 1 large outer compartment.Revolution has single main compartment, plus 2 additional small dust chambers that extend out from chamber.I don't see any special impact or effect to the various compartments.But one thing I don't like on the Revolution is the 2 additional dust chambers with removable inserts, which are a mess to handle and clean.

The dirt container is the same size on both units.These units suck up so much hair and dust that the dirt containers need to be emptied after cleaning couple rooms.I have 2 short hair cats.The hair will clump together and rotate in the dirt container.As the container fills up (maybe 1/2 to 3/4 full), some hair will remain in the upper tank and not drop down into the dirt container.

(2) Upper tank.This is where the 2 units vary the most.Overall, I give the advantage to Multicyclonic, due to ease of cleaning, particularly with less hair trapped in upper tank.Revolution does have 1 added feature: upper tank can be removed, which is less messy to clean up.

- Upper tank filter size.Multicylonic has more open space in upper tank right above the dirt container.That means less likely for hair to get trapped.Revolution has large filter component that leaves a small gap to the compartment wall.Hair is more likely to get trapped.You can read the review for Revolution.And this is a major complaint for some users.Big advantage for Multicyclonic over Revolution here.

- Filter material.The upper tank on Multicylonic uses only plastic components, whereas Revolution has foam filter in upper tank.Both can be washed and rinsed out, but plastic is just easier and faster to clean.Another advantage for Multicyclonic.

- Removable upper tank on Revolution.The upper tank on Revolution is removable, but fixed on Multicyclonic.The positive for Revolution is that I can remove both upper tank and dirt container and empty them in the garbage can.On the Multicylonic, after bottom dirt container is removed, some remaining dust can drop down from the upper tank right onto the vacuum body.

Bissell Cleanview Helix Plus Upright Vacuum, Bagless, 22C1 Review

Bissell Cleanview Helix Plus Upright Vacuum, Bagless, 22C1
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
UPDATE: I've vacuumed my apartment every other day since my last review. I am happy to say it's running as good today as it has the day I got it. It still picks up an amazing amount of dirt, and I have not had to change the HEPA media filter yet (although I can already see discoloration-I will probably by a reusable this May).

I received my Bissell 22C1 from Amazon today so my review will be my immediate views and I plan to update this once again later on this winter. As a quick background our household had 2 adults and a medium haired cat living in an apartment with white, poor quality carpet. We both suffer from allergies.

Assembly & Parts:

When the package first arrives it requires minimum assembly. The filters are all in the correct places already, and the one tool you need is a screwdriver to screw the vacuums handle onto the body. It took more time opening the boxes than it took to put the vacuum together. The cord is long enough to vacuum my living room.

Test drive:

Since you have to screw the handle onto the body, the power switch is on the side of the vacuum, which seemed kind of weird to me.

I honestly cannot believe how much dirt it picked up from my carpet (both hair and dust). My carpet has always looked dirty, but after vacuuming it looks like the color lightened up by one shade. Of course it wont work miracles, but I am so much more satisfied with my carpet than I was before. Even when vacuuming the edges of the carpet (along the wall), the vacuum gets very close to the wall. It's not to the point where you wont need to use the crevice tool every once in a while, but at least you wont have to worry about it constantly.

Cleaning the dirt container is extremely easy! My old bagless vacuum made me take a tank out of the body, and lift the filter out of the tank before I was able to toss the dirt out. With this tool all you do is slide a knob from the left to right, then the tank is easy lifted away from the body and dumped out without having to touch anything gross inside.

In case you're wondering about how much parts will cost with the unit:
the part number for the 'Style 9 Drive Belt' (2 pack) is 32074
Standard headlight Bulb: 203-1297
Style 16 outer circular pre-motor filter: 69B1
Style 7/9/16 HEPA media filter: 32076
Style 7/9/16 Post motor filter: 3099

The manual gives directions on how to replace all bulbs and filters, as well as details on how to service it (yourself) and common vacuum issues like fixing a clog.

So far the vacuum's been great. I'm happy I purchased it and would recommend it. Great product for the price! And the manual is very helpful so hopefully in the future I wont have to bring it into the repair shop!

Eureka 431DX Optima® Lightweight Vacuum (Spring Green) Review

Eureka 431DX Optima® Lightweight Vacuum
Average Reviews:

This unit is easy to set up, compact and great buy. As is the same with other Eureka products, it has the problem of air coming out IN FRONT and blowing the dust away though, suction is great and much less noise compared to my old Dirt Devil Jaguar. As it is still a week since I started using this unit, I cannot mention anything about durability, but I have an impression this one is manufactured and made up well from its structure. This compact and light weight unit is ideal as a second vacuum cleaner, and also could be used as the single unit for a family living in an apartment with great suction and easy handling, I suppose. The air blowing out in front is the only, and not a small issue so I rate one star less than five.

2. Basic features.
3. Included attachments and the use of the hand-wand.
4. A demo of the cleaner in-action.
5. How to clean the chamber with 2 clicks.

It really is a great cleaner, because it's quiet, powerful, has a variety of attachments and cleaning options, and more importantly it is SUPER easy to clean.

I hope you enjoy your new Bissell Prolite!

Click Here to see more reviews about: Bissell PROlite Multi-Cyclonic Upright Vacuum, Bagless, 17G5

Product Description:
Equipped with a 12 amp motor, this bagless, multi-cyclonic, upright vacuum cleaner provides powerful suction for thoroughly cleaning the home from top to bottom. The unit effectively removes dust, dirt, dry spills, and more, while its automatic height adjustment makes it possible to transition effortlessly from bare-floor surfaces to low- or high-pile carpeting (no need for manual adjusting). For added convenience, its 8-1/2-foot wire-reinforced stretch hose and various attachments make above-floor cleaning a snap. Use the TurboBrush for small areas such as stairs and upholstery; the crevice tool to access tight, narrow spaces; the extension wand for longer reach; and the dusting brush to dust furniture, blinds, books, lamps, shelves, and other delicate surfaces. It also comes with a bendable wand attachment for cleaning under couches, beds, dressers, and other hard-to-reach areas, as well as a deluxe floor tool that works with the bendable wand attachment--the tool's pivoting, lint brush bar collects hair, dust, and other debris with each pull-back motion and releases debris into the suction path of the tool with each push-forward motion. When collected dirt reaches the "full" line, it's time to empty to dirt container--a simple push button makes it easy to empty without getting hands dirty. In addition, the vacuum cleaner provides a washable pre-motor filter that protects the motor from dirt particles and a HEPA media post-motor filter that captures over 99.9-percent of dust mites, pollens, and ragweeds to ensure clean air gets released back out into the room. Other highlights include fingertip on/off controls, a 13-1/4-inch cleaning path, dual-edge cleaning, a soft bumper to protect furniture and baseboards from marking, a carrying handle, a 25-foot power cord, cord storage, and a tool bag to keep all the attachments neatly stored. The upright vacuum cleaner measures 13 by 14-1/2 by 45 inches and carries a five-year limited warranty.

Dirt Devil Breeze Bagless Upright Vacuum, M088160RED Review

Dirt Devil Breeze Bagless Upright Vacuum, M088160RED
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Our big and heavy Dirt Devil Platinum Force quit after 5 years of service and we decided to try something lighter and much less expensive.

The Breeze arrived in 3 days, even with free shipping - thanks Amazon!
Assembly was a breeze, just 4 screws.We have over 1500 sq ft of carpeted areas and steps so I put the new vacuum to work.

Pros:
-- Price (and I also used a gift certificate) - sweet!
-- Lightweight!What a difference it makes.
-- Very powerful.It sucked a full dirt container from our house.
-- Thermal protective device - according to the manual this will shut off the motor to prevent overheating (what our old vacuum did not have)

Cons:
-- No HEPA filter out of the box but the next time I replace the filter I can get a HEPA filter from Amazon
-- To use the hose (on the steps, inside car) I needed to detach the main hose and connect the special hose.But it's cool how you plug-and-twist the hose in place.
-- Warranty is only 2 years.But for the price I paid that's fine.

So really, no negatives yet.Happy with this purchase.

I bought this vacuum strictly for the basement(where our Home Theatre is set up).It was a pain in the *ss carrying our canister up and down all the time, so I happened upon this cleaner on sale at Home Depot for a mere $70.00...I was initially skeptical at first, I mean a $70 vacuum?However, I purchased it anyway, knowing that I would be able to return it if I wasn't happy.The setup and assembly was fairly quick. The instructions were easy to follow and featured step-by-step illustrations.When I had everything ready to go, I decided to give it a "test run", and I was impressed.I was amazed at the junk our Sears Canister was leaving behind, as I watched the cat hair and dust swirling around in the collection bin.My only complaint-and this is common with bagless vacs in general-is that you MUST clean the filter off after every use, otherwise they tend to plug up and overheat the motor.This is especially true if you have multiple pets, or longhaired cats.In conclusion, this is a good machine.Strong suction too.The attachments include an extension wand for above floor cleaning, crevice tool, and dusting brush.The dustbin simply snaps off in a jiffy, and the filter is washable/replaceable.This is what I like to refer to as a "second vac", when you simply want a machine on another level in your home, without having to lug your main vacuum all over the place.I've owned it for about 5 months now, and so far, no complaints.Just keep it clean and you'll be set.Also, pay no attention to that one review below.This is obviously referring to a totally separate model.I'm happy.

Eureka 4236AZ Comfort Clean Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner Review

I have been trying to decide which new vacuum to buy and finally bought this Eureka.

I had just used my old vacuum and ran through the house with it thinking that it would be a few more days before I got this one and got hubby to assemble it for use.

He put it together right away and I ran it just ONE day ofter using the older one.Granted, I realized it was time to replace the old one but it still picked up a good bit of stuff and when I changed bags, its was obviously still pulling a good bit of dust, cat hair, etc. when I used it.

But, I am still in a state of shock at what came out of my carpet! EEEEKKKKKKKKK!!! I am almost thinking that I may have to buy a new filter now, even though it says to change every six months!I can't begin to wrap my mind around just how much dust, cat hair, etc. that has obviously collecting in our house that we moved into just a couple of years ago at the most and the carpet was new at the time.I know they have a lot of fuzz and such in them when they are new but this is beyond belief as far as I am concerned.

Now, most of my floors are wood and I have vinyl in the kitchen and I know this machine did not come witha bare floor setting (which was my error before purchase) but am hoping it is available to purchase as attachment.

Either way, I put it on a different setting than for the higher carpet as I did not want it to beat up my wood floors andi it did fine.So, I covered most of the floor excpet the large formal dining room and the canister was full and as I said, I may need to replace the filter prior to the suggested time.It did brush off nicely with a soft bristle brush that I use for my clothes dryer.

All I can say is that this thing will makeyou feel like you have been living in a filthy dust pit and here I though I was a fairly clean person and kept a decent house and now I just feel like I need to run it again really quickly and see if I canget rid of more cooties!!

Mine came with the power paw but I did not even get that far with using it yet but feel sure it will be great on the furniture due to our cats who think they own the house!

This is one great vacuum!We have a long-haired dog ... every time I use this machine ... well, you would think I hadn't vacuumed in a year ... it is a dirt magnet!

The only down side is that the HEPA side filter is a bit pricey.

Want a clean house?This may be the last vacuum you'd ever want to use!

My 3 year old dirtdevil Vacuum cleaner gave up and I headed to the research room on Amazon to consider a replacement. After extensive research I zeroed in on this and Hoover 5507-900. Hoover was more expensive and did not have the tools and upholstery available on this Vacuum. I still had my doubts on Bissell hence I headed to Target to check the Vacuum myself. I was impressed with what I saw and I ordered this on Amazon.

Out of the box this Vacuum was very easy to assemble and quite user friendly. The motor was very powerful and it cleaned the dirt from the carpet with ease. It also had adjustable knob for power variation and had one for bare-floor surfaces. The dirt container was very easy to replace and the extra dusting brush with extension wand made hard to reach places very easy to clean. Whats more this vacuum worked like charm on my Vacuum storage bags. It removed the air out of the bag in 30 seconds flat.

I would definitely recommend this Vacuum cleaner who doesn't want to waste money on Hoover or even worst Dyson and still wants to keep clean.

Bissell Style 8/14 Lift-Off Bagless HEPA Filter, 3091 Review

Bissell Style 8/14 Lift-Off Bagless HEPA Filter, 3091
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We had a Dyson vac which worked great ... until it broke. Getting it fixed would've cost a lot just in shipping. You see, there really are no repair shops in the States for Dyson. So, we threw our $300+ vacuum away after about a year's use. We bought the Bissell a few months ago. Having just bought a new wool rug that sheds like crazy (easily fills the dirt receptacle twice every time I vacuum). Also, we have a 2 yr old, three dogs (2 boxers, one mix breed puppy) and a cat, so we vac A LOT.

The Bissell is excellent - great suction, multiple tools on-board and a nice detachable section (we don't have stairs, but if we did this would make cleaning them a breeze). You can turn off the rotating brush, which is great for tile. It's got a HEPA filter (I mentioned our animals, right?) which makes me feel like our air's maybe a bit better than it would be. Very happy overall (the bagless system is great, but lost a star as the receptacle could be a little bigger).
