[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum is a game changer for children's post meal messes. I have 3 children under 6 and our floor is always a mess post meal time. This vacuum has been a game changer for our post meal cleaning ritual. Previously I would have to sweep, vacuum, mop. This wet and dry vacuum allows me to vacuum and mop at the same time. It has cut my cleaning time in half. The zero edge technology is also amazing as it cleans right up to the baseboard without missing food particles or dirt. The one negative about the vacuum is you do have to empty the dirty water every time and rinse the compartment. It doesn't take long, but it does take a little more time to wrap up the job. There is a nifty self cleaning feature so the mop brush stays clean without having to manually clean it. That I love! All in all the positives outweigh any downsides and if you have kids this is a must purchase! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this wet and dry vacuum.

Great for quick spills or one room clean ups

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, the CrossWave OmniForce is a versatile cleaner that makes it easy to keep your space clean in between deeper cleans. The wet mop function is great, especially for quick spills or one-room clean-ups. The dry vacuum suction leaves a little to be desired. While the addition of the edge cleaning function to this cleaner is a neat idea, it does cause you to do some weird maneuvering to actually get at the edges of the area you're cleaning. Thus, it is not easy to use in tight, enclosed areas. While the upkeep and maintenance is slightly time-consuming (ie. needing to take apart the water tanks and clean after each use), it is incredibly simple to take everything apart and put it back together again. I received the CrossWave OmniForce cleaner through the Stellar Product Testing Panel

Incredibly light but powerful!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used several Bissell's before and have always been happy with them. But upon pulling this one out of the box I was instantly impressed. The unit is very small for an upright. Incredibly light. But that was just the first impression. After getting the machine set up, which was ridiculously simple by the way, I got it powered on. The crosswave has a beautiful and simple to read display screen. After getting the settings all in order and filling the canister with water and cleaner, I fired the machine up and used it on my premium vinyl flooring. The machine cleaned like a dream. It didn't output too much water and it dried quickly and seemed to pick up a really good amount of dirt off of the flooring. After running it over the floor I emptied and cleaned the cannister, also simple and then set the unit on its charging base. Yes, did I mention that it is CORDLESS?! because on top of everything else it is cordless. Would I recommend this version of the Crosswave? Absolutely. It cleans well, even with two pets in the house. Is easy to maneuver and there's no messy cords. Thank you to Stellar for letting me try this cleaner!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a preschool in my house so any way I can save time is awesome. With this machine, I can basically sweep and mop at the same time. I have used it in my classroom and the kitchen and have cut my cleaning time significantly. It's light and fluffy lol compared to my Bissell vacuum and carpet cleaner so that's awesome too. I love Bissell products, they always do what they say they're gonna do!

Handy Wet/Dry Vac for Routine Use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Bissell Crosswave is a handy device for quick spills and routine cleaning, especially in high travel areas like my kitchen. My favorite feature is the Omniforce Edge; I love being able to get the crumbs closer to the wall by just approaching things at the proper angle; no slamming the vacuum into the baseboards to get crumbs on the perimeter. For daily/weekly cleaning, the Bissell is my new star device. It's so easy to vacuum and mop in 1 step that my floors have never been more regularly clean. You do have to dump the dirty water, clean the pieces, and let them dry for 24 hours. I dislike having to clean my vacuum but it is a time saver and easier than a mop and bucket. I spilled a full coffee and had it cleaned quickly without wasting paper towels, staining my kitchen towels or leaving sticky residue. Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this wet and dry vacuum. The Bissell worked on all types of floor in my home, including area rugs picking up smashed in goldfish, dried up spaghetti, and crumbs. For tough spots on hard surfaces, it needed a few passes, soaking, and a final pass, even on high power. I have 4 other upright vacuums: 1 corded, 2 cordless, and 1 cordless wet/dry: -Power: Neither the Bissell nor the other cordless can compete with the power of the corded. This is for weekly/daily cleaning needs, not enough for the occasional deep clean -Con- Picking up Goldfish/Cheerios: Neither the Bissel nor other cordless are able to pick them up whole; I have to smash them first -Use: Bissell is easy to maneuver, great at cleaning edges, easy to use (4 buttons: on/off, wet, more power, self-clean). When propped upright, it turns off. When tilted, it turns on again! Amazing for stopping to pick up another Lego before your next swipe. Easy to empty the debris bin; the debris catcher was brilliant for saving Legos and letting me throw away the dog hair separately from the dirty water -Con-Difficult to reassemble the head cover

Pleasantly Surprised

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so shocked with the efficiency of CrossWave OmniForce. It is cordless allowing me to move all around the house without having to worry about reaching the end of the cord and stopping to move plugs. I found the battery life to be long enough to do my whole downstairs about 1300sqft. It is also great for quick post dining cleanups with a toddler who finds throwing food on the ground amusing. The suction picks up all of my pets' fur and my hair too. We are currently growing grass in our yard so the dogs drag in more dirt than normal and this vacuum has been saving the day. It is great to not have to sweep and mop separately saving this working mom of 2 much needed time. The self clean feature is great and has kept the rollers from getting that mildew smell common with wet/dry vacuums. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this wet and dry vacuum.

Must have for homes with toddler or dogs!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This wet/dry vacuum mop truly cuts my cleaning time in half! My old process was to use a stick vacuum everywhere and then mop, but now I only have to go over my floors with one item instead of two. It also cleans much better than my old steam mop... I was shocked at how dirty the water in the reservoir was when I emptied it out, and seeing it gave me confidence that this thing is truly cleaning my floors and not just pushing dirt around! I LOVE that one of the edges cleans right up to the baseboards, and that the machine is slim enough to fit under the lip of the cabinets in the kitchen. That "edge" is 110% worth buying this model over the others so you don't have to bend over to wipe those areas by hand or get out a broom! At first I was nervous that the estimated battery life is only 30 minutes, as we have a 3000 sq ft home and the entire downstairs is hard surface. But it has plenty of charge time to clean the entire downstairs and I usually still have about 30% battery left when I'm done! And that's with using the "turbo mode" for half of the surfaces! The modes on the machine are super easy and intuitive to switch between and the turbo mode works great for areas where our toddler eats or does crafts. The ability to just use the vacuum only mode is great too when the dog drags in all the grass clippings in the summer. It's very easy to empty and refill the water/solution (I have to switch out the water once halfway through to finish cleaning our downstairs.) It's also easy to clean when I'm done using it and I appreciate the self cleaning feature to make sure no gunk stays trapped inside the machine! Overall I think the Crosswave Omniforce Edge is a must have for any home with hard surfaces, but particularly if you have little ones! Our extra time as parents is so scarce and valuable and the fact that this cleans so well in half the time would make the investment on one of these completely worth it! Thank you Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing it!

Superior Wet-Dry Vacuum

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this wet and dry vacuum from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I'm a Mom of 3 boys and I have a dog who loves to roll around in mud, this vacuum has been a life changer! You can easily vacuum and mop all at once using this extremely effective and efficient product. The first time I used it I decided to clean my kitchen, half bath and laundry room. What would normally take me 45 or more minutes took me 30, plus my floors were cleaner than after I mop. I was thoroughly impressed with the ease of moving right to moping without having to fill up a bucket and get a mop. I was shocked by how much the vacuum is able to suction up and hold as well as how dirty the water was after I moped with it. It was also very easy to clean the machine once I was done using it. I'm so thankful for this versatile vacuum, it has changed this busy mom's life for the better! Thank you for creating this fabulous product!
