[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Bissell PowerLifter Turbo stick vacuum as part of the Stellar testing panel. At first, I really loved this thing! It is very powerful and my favorite part is the light on the front so you can really see dirt and dust on the ground, especially hard floors. The weight of the vacuum is pretty good too; it's very easy to push around and somewhat easy to hold up and get sides of walls and ceilings. It also disassembles into several parts, making it super easy to use in the car. The major issues with this vacuum, the reasons I took off 3 stars, is because the battery life on this thing is terrible. I mean like it is pretty much unusable kind of terrible. It would take more than an hour to charge up the battery and it would last about 15-20 minutes. When I vacuum, I generally like to get it done within a reasonable amount of time, not have to constantly keep stopping to charge the battery. I understand it not being for large rooms or full houses, but it needs to last longer. I would sacrifice some of the lightness for a larger battery. The other reason I took off stars is because of the filter/dust tank set up. I probably dumped the tank onto the ground at least 5 times while testing the vacuum, which isn't fun when you're vacuuming in a rush so the battery doesn't die for the 100th time. The tank being fairly small and the filter being what it is, I would need to dump it every couple of minutes and that is definitely too often. So overall, 2 stars are taken for the battery life and 1 star is taken for the dust tank. This vacuum seemed so perfect for my situation when I first unpacked it but after extensive use, I found it all bells and no whistle.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I was very impressed with this product and how much it was able to pick up from carpet to vinyl floors to your car seats. I like that you can utilize between the different tools. The battery life is why I gave it a four star as I did use it on level 3. I noticed when going from a hard service to a rug it would shut off but it didn't do this all the time. I liked the ease of taking it apart & having the directions show me how to clean it/charge it. Love the sleekness/color and how easy it to use & how it all comes apart to put in a neat area. Always love Bissell products. I definitely recommend buying this. You quickly realize how much dirt/hair/particles it picks up when you go to dump it out. The sound is not loud as it has three levels of strength to it. I used the smaller parts for areas I couldn't get & I was amazed.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Cleanview XR PowerLifter Turbo has been a welcome addition in our house! The suction on this vacuum is excellent and the three power modes are helpful for transitioning from the simple everyday jobs to the heavier, weekly rug cleanup in our upstairs areas. In comparison to our other off-brand stick vacuum, this one definitely stands out; in particular, I love how much easier it is to empty the dirt canister. It's also much more useful on our long shag rug! I do wish the height was adjustable, but even at my 5'1" stature it's still easy enough to maneuver and nowhere near a deal-breaker. Overall, this feels like a well-made vacuum that has left this mom of four kids and two cats satisfied. We will enjoy using it for a long time. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this stick vacuum from the Stellar Product Testing Panel and have been thoroughly impressed with the results! The suction was strong enough to clean debris from our bathroom renovation and the performance on hardwood floors and rugs is excellent. It's hard to know if a cordless vacuum will have enough power to get the job done, but it has exceeded my expectations. The lightweight design makes it easy to pick up and go. The maneuverability is even better than my old cordless vacuum. It easily glides under the kitchen toe kicks that collect lots of crumbs and cat hair. I've never had a vacuum with 3 power modes, but it's been useful when I need to increase the suction for areas with lots of debris. Even on the highest setting, it is quieter than my traditional vacuum. My only critique is the small size of the dustbin, but it is part of the compromise when using a compact vacuum. Overall, I am very impressed with the Powerlifter Turbo. Once you go cordless, you'll never want to go back. While I still have a traditional vacuum on hand, I do not enjoy using it. A lightweight cordless vacuum makes chores easier. And as a mom and pet owner, I am always looking for ways to save time and energy without cutting corners. I would 100% recommend to a friend.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They say it takes a village to raise children. In my experience it takes a village to clean up after them. With this vacuum I can clean up messes my toddlers make in a flash! This vacuum should be on every moms baby registry or their child's first birthday wish list. The ease in which I can clean up after my kids is unbelievable with this cordless vacuum. I've never owned a cordless vacuum because I figured it wasn't that much harder to just plug one in however, I'm so much more relaxed about messes now that I don't have to lug out my standard corded vacuum every time there is a mess (15+times a day ). It's super lightweight, my 3 year old can use it. It fits in and under small spaces really well and it's rather quiet too. Cracker crumbs? sure! Sand in your pants? No problem! Smashed cereal in your car seat? I can get it out with the crevice tools! A relaxed mom about messes definitely makes for a happier family all around. The charge holds well for our small 1000sqft house. We charge it probably every other day with about 15 uses a day and a multi full room vacuum once a day. Cons: This vacuum is great at catching crumbs and cleaning on top of carpet and hard surfaces however I feel I still need my standard vacuum to really turn my carpet and get a deeper clean 1-2 times a month. My house is 100+ years old so it's likely just a personal problem but I wish it were a bit thinner of a vacuum head as it doesn't go under my cabinet ledge. ( I can get this area with the crevice tools thought!) Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this stick vacuum I am one happy mama !
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this vacuum. I was so excited to get it, but quickly realized this was not what I was expecting. The maneuverability was great, and I could easily use it one-handed while holding my baby in the other hand. But unfortunately even on the strongest suction, it didn't seem to pick up much, and as soon as I stopped the vacuum it would leave a massive puddle of dust and dirt where it was, requiring me to have to go get another vacuum out to clean up that big mess. And the attachments picked up even less dirt! It does pick up hair well so I still am using it for that, but not much else.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for your feedback. Sorry to hear you're not happy with the vacuum, but we'd love to help troubleshoot the suction issue with you at support.bissell.com.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this stick vacuum from the Stellar review panel. First impression out of the box, this is a high quality, sleek looking machine. I love how easy it is to grab and clean up small messes. I was using this primarily on carpet. Pros: Lightweight, attachments are easy to swap out, making it great for stairs or cars also. It's easy to empty and clean the roller, and it's small but sturdy. The suction is about what I would expect of a battery powered vacuum. It was able to handle small jobs easily, and I was even able to use it for a whole house vacuum with no problem . I love the trigger power switch, and the touch display is great. The removable battery is very convenient and easy to charge, but that does being us to the main Con: The battery life was a little lacking. If this is your only vacuum, and you're doing several rooms, it will be dead at the end. About 25 minutes of run time I would say, depending on which power level you choose. I mostly used the middle setting, which is automatic when you turn it on. I simply charge it after each use unless I'm using it for small, quick jobs. Overall, I really like this vacuum, and would definitely recommend it because of it's convenience and ability to go anywhere and tackle everyday messes with ease.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Thank you so much for letting me test it out! The Powerlifter Turbo vacuum rocks! Here's why I give it an 8 out of 10: Pros: Putting it together was a breeze. Super easy to get rolling with your cleaning. This vacuum can bend and twist to tackle any cleaning job, even while it's running! It's so light you'll actually look forward to cleaning, no more lugging around a heavy beast. Emptying the trash is a piece of cake. No fuss, no mess. Surprisingly strong suction for a cordless vac, and it's got different power settings to handle whatever mess you throw at it. Unlike some vacs that sound like a rock concert, this one keeps it cool with a low noise level. Cons: Charging takes forever. You'll need some patience before you can get back to cleaning. Bigger stuff sometimes gets jammed inside, so you might have to lend a hand in getting it out. The dustbin is a bit small, so you'll find yourself emptying it more often, especially with bigger cleaning jobs. Overall, the Powerlifter Turbo is a winner. Easy setup, flexible design, lightweight, and great suction make it a must-have for any home. Sure, there are a few quirks like the slow charge and small bin, but I'd definitely recommend it to a friend. It's a solid cleaning buddy that gets the job done!
