I LOVE Bissell … up until I bought this “vacuum”. I’m going to be blunt here, this thing makes me so mad lol, I end up cussing into the void and give up. It doesn’t work lol. Doesn’t matter if it’s carpet or hard surface - it turns off after about 30 seconds. The filter is clean, there’s nothing in the thing, it’s fully charged and still it does NOT work. Aarrrgggg. I wish I had been able to buy the same one I’ve owned 3 times. It has a long handle and a little vacuum part and it was powerful. I vacuumed my whole house and furniture and everything lol. One of them lasted 9 years.
Anyways … do not, I repeat, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY on this model. It’ll make you incur therapy bills every week.
I’m most upset that I don’t have the box of the receipt for this thing so I basically threw my money in the trash 😩 Darn it, Bissell … whyyy??
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Pam, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about the charging issue and limited runtime with your ReadyClean® Cordless Stick Vacuum. This may be related to the battery or charger, and we’d like to help resolve it.

Works great for 6 months but then you need to replace the brush every 3-6 months or it stops working.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Alice. We’re sorry to hear the brush needed frequent replacement—that’s frustrating. Regular brush maintenance can help extend its life, but if you’re replacing it every few months, we’d like to look into this further. Please reach out to us at support.bissell.com so we can assist and make sure your ReadyClean® performs as expected.
Have only been using about 2 weeks. Battery doesnt last long. Sometimes turns off on its own even if fully charged.

Hi Grace, thanks for sharing your experience with the ReadyClean Cordless Stick Vacuum. We’re sorry about the short battery life and unexpected shut-offs—those aren’t typical. Please reach out at support.bissell.com so we can help troubleshoot and improve your experience.
Worst Bissell product I've EVER purchased or used. Item died a slow death over time. Id go over over visible dirt only to see this vacuum spit it back out the back. I did everything the owners manual stated to know avail. Very frustrating and a waste of time and energy. I gave it a nick name. The Fisher Price toy vac. My only relief was on trash day to see it hauled off to the great landfill somewhere. Prompty ordered a new LG based on Consumer Reports reviews. Do your homework first everyone.

Thank you for sharing your experience, BobKat. We’re sorry to hear the ReadyClean® Cordless Stick Vacuum didn’t perform as expected. Loss of suction and debris issues can sometimes be resolved by checking for clogs and cleaning the filter regularly, but if you’ve already tried that, please reach out to us at support.bissell.com so we can help make this right.
