[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the ReadyClean Cordless vacuum for the upkeep of daily messes in my home across a variety of surfaces, including hardwood, carpets, jute and wool rugs. The ReadyClean has consistently delivered a through clean on everything from food crumbs on my couch to embedded debris in my rugs, as well as pet bird feathers and seed spills. As a mom of toddlers, I greatly appreciate the lightweight upright design because I can quickly do a vacuum sweep without having to lug out a heavy, noisy machine. One feature that stands compared to other vacuums I have owned is the ability to turn the brush roll on/off, allowing for seamless, uninterrupted transitions from hardwood to carpeted floors. However, the biggest game changer for me is the maneuverability of the swivel head; it completely improves the experience of navigating around living room furniture and dining room chairs. Not to mention, the 2-in-1 design allows me to pop out the handheld unit to tackle areas beyond the floor. I have used it to vacuum couch cushions, car seats and car mats. One area with room for improvement is the ability to have various power controls. When the vacuum is running, there is a green light indicator for the standard speed but there is no option to adjust the level of suction. While the current suction power is adequate, the ReadyClean is definitely best suited for quick cleanups and everyday messes. It also boasts a tiny footprint for its handle ability to fold into almost half it's size, making it easy to tuck into a entryway or kitchen closet
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently received the ReadyClean Cordless vacuum. I was so excited to try it out as I have a little bit of an obsession with cleaning, but with several young kiddos it is hard to make cleaning a priority! I love cordless vacuums as it just makes cleaning so much easier than sweeping and there's no annoying cord following you around. The things I love about this cordless vacuum are that it is so lightweight. I have another model of this brand and it is much clunkier. This one is so easy to maneuver around and my kids do better with this model. I also love that it stands upright on its own. My other one I always have to lean it against something. This one is easy to clean out. You just push a button and it separates from the main frame to be able to go dump it out. You can also use it as a little vac that way (see my picture). This one has decent suction, but I would say it's not as powerful as my other model within this brand. It doest not suction up Cheerios very well, whereas my other one does. The other thing I miss about this one is that it does not have a light to light up the floor. I really miss that feature as it makes it harder to see things that you might not want to vacuum up. It's also less satisfying that you can't see all the dust and crumbs your sucking up! I would say if you want a lightweight, decently powerful, cordless vacuum this one is great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upon receiving this vacuum, the first thing I noticed was the lightweight, foldable, portable design with beautiful teal colors. I absolutely love the idea of a handheld vacuum in a regular floor vacuum, it’s genius!
The suction strength is perfect for my cereal-throwing toddler and cat hair filled carpet and hardwood floors. It is so nice to be able to just pull out a cordless vacuum to quickly and easily clean up everyday messes! I love the button feature that compresses the vacuum to get into tighter spots like under the couch and dinner table.
What I love most about this vacuum is the 2-in-1 feature where I can turn it into a handheld vacuum, saving me the need of buying another vacuum for my car!
Overall, I highly recommend this vacuum, especially for parents and/or pet owners!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ReadyClean cordless 10.8V vacuum delivers strong performance for its compact size, making it perfect for quick cleanups across multiple surface types. The lightweight design makes it extremely mobile, whether using on stairs, rugs, upholstery, and/or car interiors. Its all-in-one design is a standout feature, converting easily between a handheld unit for spot cleaning and the push vac for larger floor areas. This definitely eliminates the need for multiple separate devices and optimizes storage space. The unit folds up for minimizing closet space or to be hidden in a garage or cabinet. The motor provides adequate suction for everyday debris, pet hair, and light messes, holding up well against pricier vacuums in everyday cleaning power.
Not a 5 start product only for a couple of flaws in my use and in their design. Unlike pricier cordless brands that offer wall-mounted charging docks or stands with included storage, this relies on a more basic charging cable setup. This requires a dedicated spot to plug in and store the unit between uses, which can also limit storage options in closets or cabinets if the focus is on storage. For anyone accustomed to the charging station convenience of premium brands, this is a noted step down in everyday function. The unit is free standing (see photo) in both the folded and full length setups.
Performance also varies depending on carpet or rug pile length. On low profile or hard flooring, suction remains consistent and the vacuum moves smoothly without significant resistance or loss of functionality. However, on longer or thicker carpet, the motor loses power or halts power altogether. I have had similar results in vacuums of this price and motor class, but it’s worth factoring in for your style of carpeting or planned use case.
Filter exchange, emptying, transition between floor and handheld models, and overall aesthetic, 5 out of 5. Slight flaws above made it a 4 star product for me, but definitely useful around the house, especially if you are trying to stay within the more affordable options!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for the great feedback, Brian—we’re glad to hear the lightweight design, versatility, and everyday performance are delivering value in your home. For thicker carpets, switching off the brush roll and keeping the filter clean can help prevent power dips and keep airflow steady. If you ever want help with setup or performance, BISSELL support is available at support.bissell.com or 1-800-237-7691.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum is great. It is super lightweight! My kids (10 and 7) were so excited to try it out and make it "theirs" for chores. It is so easy to empty out the container when it gets full and get right back to work again. I love how the small piece comes off and can be a small hand vac, and also how the handle can be in different positions. The suction worked well on rugs and our wood floor. We had a Christmas tree up in June (I know, silly, but it fell down in our yard!) and this was great at picking up the needles that dropped! It seems like I will use it most for little every day messes, and it folds up pretty well so I can store it in a closet near the kitchen. The tank is small so it does mean emptying it out if you are doing a bigger clean, but as I said, that was so easy to do. I highly recommend this for a lightweight and effective clean!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely love this vacuum! I was so surprised with how light and easy to maneuver it is (also makes it easy to store!)
We have a lot of dark laminate flooring in our home and this is perfect for cleaning up quick messes. We also have 2 dogs and it has done a great job with all the fur.
My favorite part is probably how easy it is to empty/clean. We’ve had so many vacuums where this part is such a hassle and ends up making more of a mess, but this has been super easy to do. Would definitely recommend.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With four kids and a Labrador that sheds constantly, our floors never stay clean for long. This vacuum has become my go-to because it’s just so much easier to grab than my full-size vacuum.
The suction is surprisingly strong, even on our carpet. It has no problem picking up dog hair, crumbs, and all the little messes that seem to appear throughout the day. It’s also lightweight enough that my kids can use it and they actually ask to help vacuum.
I love that the handheld vacuum is built right in and snaps back easily into place. I use it all the time on the couch and dining room chairs and it’s much more convenient than pulling out a separate handheld. The two attachments are really useful too. One works great for flat surfaces, and the crevice tool makes it easy to clean along baseboards and get into those tight corners that always seem to collect dust.
Another feature I really appreciate is that it folds in half for easy storage. It doesn’t take up much room and it’s easy to tuck away out of sight. It also fits under our dining table and couch without much effort, which makes quick cleanups that much easier.
The battery has held up well through multiple cleaning sessions and charging it is simple. I find myself reaching for this way more often than my heavier vacuum because it’s just less cumbersome. It’s perfect for keeping up with everyday messes without feeling like you’re committing to a full house cleaning.
I highly recommend this cordless lightweight vacuum. As a busy mom, any gadget that makes life a little easier is a 10/10 in my book.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, I'd give this vacuum 4 out of 5 stars. I really liked it and think it's a great secondary vacuum to have around the house. The lightweight design is one of my favorite features. It's easy to carry and store, so I keep it upstairs where we just have two bedrooms and a small bathroom. It's perfect for doing a quick cleanup every few days without dragging out a larger vacuum.
The suction is good for everyday messes like dust, crumbs, and hair, but I probably wouldn't use it in high-traffic areas or for bigger cleaning jobs. For quick touch-ups, though, it gets the job done.
It's also very easy to maneuver around the house and under furniture because it's so lightweight. One unexpected bonus is that my kids can use it without any trouble, so it's great when they need to clean up a small mess or when I want to give them a quick chore.
Overall, what I liked most was how convenient and easy it is to use. While I wouldn't replace my main vacuum with it, it's a handy vacuum to keep on another floor for everyday pickups and quick cleanups.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thanks for sharing your experience, Sooz—we’re glad the lightweight design and ease of use are making quick cleanups (and even helping little ones pitch in!) more convenient. For bigger jobs, using slower passes and keeping the dirt tank clear can help you get the most out of the machine’s suction.
