Wonderful vacuum for every day
on May 27, 2025
Posted by: Ansley
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, I really like the Bissell CleanView Max. It’s lightweight, easy to maneuver, and has strong suction. I’ve used it on hardwood floors, high-pile carpet, and low-pile rugs—it transitions smoothly between all three, which was a pleasant surprise. The design made it easy to clean our couch and curtains, too.
Assembly was a breeze, and emptying the canister is quick and mess-free. The almost-modular design makes it incredibly functional. One of my favorite features is the lift-away option—it made vacuuming the couch much easier without having to awkwardly drag the entire unit around.
I also really appreciate how the hose separates for extension use. It's a much more convenient and user-friendly design compared to traditional vacuums, making it easier to tackle baseboards, corners, and furniture.
That said, a few small cons:
1. I couldn’t find a cord holder clip—maybe I missed it, but if it’s not there, that’s a little inconvenient.
2. I wish it had a retractable cord instead of a manual wind-up.
3. Some attachments could be better. The pet hair tool, for example, doesn’t spin very well when used on upholstery like a couch.
Despite those minor issues, this vacuum delivers great value and functionality. I’d definitely recommend it for anyone looking for an effective vacuum with thoughtful design features.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Super Impressed
on May 27, 2025
Posted by: Mom2Girls
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was really impressed with the overall performance of this vacuum! It has a nice modern design that looks great and fells well-built. The cleaning power was strong (which is needed) - and easily handled everything from everyday crumbs, pet hair and larger debris. I used it on laminate, low-pile carpet and area rugs with no issues between transition of surfaces. My favorite feature was the swivel steering - It made maneuvering around furniture, toys and tight corners a breeze! Overall, this vacuum made cleaning feel less like a chore!

CleanView Max LiftOff Review
on May 27, 2025
Posted by: YanaO
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My overall impression of the vacuum was that it was a great, heavy-duty vacuum for a deep clean. Because it is a fairly large type of vacuum, it looks fairly sleek and compact, considering its suction power.
What did you think of the cleaning power? What types of messes did it help you tackle?
We used the vacuum to clean up after our young kids finished dinner, played in the living room, and in the mud room (which typically gets pretty messy). This is a combination of hardwood and rugged surfaces. We plan on using it upstairs in our fully carpeted rooms, but have not had a chance to bring it up yet.

This vacuum is designed for mess cleanup. It is a bit heavy and has a lot of great parts that we can use for different types of surfaces or vacuuming needs. The one thing that I wish it had was a wet vac option - however, I understand that it would require a different component.
Overall, we are very happy with this vacuum cleaner, especially because it can be used on our couches, floors, rugs, and carpets.

Versatile Vacuum any area of your home
on May 27, 2025
Posted by: RIMomof3
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Bissell Cleanview Max Lift-off is a great versatile vacuum for any home! Our home has a mix of hardwoods, carpet, and area rugs. This vacuum worked well on each surface. With 3 kids in our house, the floors getting pretty messy, especially the kitchen. The Cleanview Max Lift-off does a great job sucking up crumbs of various sizes, although I noticed sometimes I’d need to aim the crumbs right for the center of the vacuum to get it sucked up on the first try. It sucked up tons of lint off our area rugs.
I love the see-through canister-no bags!- because you know when it’s full to empty it. Emptying the canister is easy, just release the opening straight over your trash can. The wand feature is helpful for under our baseboard heating registers and in tight spaces around furniture.
On of my favorite features is the “lift-off”! This makes it so easy to vacuum my stairs without carrying a heavy full size vacuum and better suction than a small handheld.
My only complaint is I wish there was an additional On/Off switch was on the wand when using it in normal vacuum mode. I have a toddler who is a little scared of vacuums, so I normally hold her when I vacuum. That was difficult to do with this vacuum because I needed to hold the vacuum in one hand after releasing it from the standing position, then use my other hand to turn on the switch. A minor detail that probably won’t be an issue much longer!

Power packed vacuum
on May 27, 2025
Posted by: Momof7squad
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a mom of 7 young children who works full time, I need my time to be used efficiently and that includes cleaning. This vacuum is a great way to get the task done fast and fully. Straight out of the box, it was easy and logical and easy to assemble in minutes. All of the parts fit together securely and could be reconfigured with the push of a button. All of the buttons are clearly labeled as well. While it is a full sized machine, it is designed to be as compact as possible so it is easy to move around. I love that when you remove the cleaning head to use the hose attachment (for stairs, etc), it sits flat on the ground and is stable! Makes it so easy to have both hands free and it reduces the weight significantly when doing stairs or other manual jobs. As for the power, we have new carpet in much of our home and I accidentally left the setting to "low pile" while vacuuming my deep pile carpet and I couldn't figure out why it was SO hard to push - the suction was that strong! It was sucking down deep into the carpets like a professional cleaner! I figured out I had it on the wrong setting and then it was much easier to push, but that just shows how strong the suction is. The carpeted area in our main living space backs up to solid wood and the vacuum cleaned seamlessly with a click of the button from the deep pile carpet to the hardwood to clean the crumbs in the kitchen. It is easy to see what you're cleaning up with the clearview plastic on the top of the roller and the dustbin. The cord is also really long; I had no problem in any area of my house with being able to reach everything or being constrained by cord length.
Three areas for improvement are that 1) it's heavier than other models I've used in general (but it packs a punch in power which makes up for it). 2) There is no place to store the edge cleaner on the device, which means I have to carry it with me as I clean the house. 3) Generally it does not do a great job on the edges and I had to use the attachments to clean all edges of the room or against furniture to get everything up. Despite these things, this vacuum over performed for my expectations in the areas of getting dirt, crumbs, hair, debris off all surfaces we tried (low and deep pile carpet, hardwood, and tile), it is very easy to configure for every type of job, and it is intuitive to use. Thank you Stellar Product Testing Panel for letting me try out this great vacuum!

Great Function for Pet Vacuum
on May 27, 2025
Posted by: Nicole
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have rabbits, so there is a unique kind of pet hair as well as hay fragments that we are constantly cleaning up. We have had pet vacuums in the past, so I was excited to try this one. I took one sweep down the carpet and checked the container…wow. It picked up so much in just one strip I was instantly impressed. I love that it has settings for carpet and wood/tile as we have all of these surfaces in our home. I loved the wand that detaches and has a small brush perfect for cleaning my vents that are high on our walls. The only feature I wish it had is a light as sometimes it’s hard to see in the corners or on the stairs. I would absolutely purchase this again if I needed a pet vacuum. It is lightweight, has a detachable wand and canister, and is very high powered.

A great addition to any household
on May 27, 2025
Posted by: Bethanyc
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have 3 dogs, 2 cats and a toddler so having a good vacuum is important to me. This vacuum took me by surprise. I was mind blown by the suction power when using the pet cleaning tool on my couches, dog beds and rugs. It picked up more hair than any other vacuum I’ve used in the past. I used the vacuum on my carpet, rugs, tile and hardwood floors and it seems to get the job done on each. The overall look is sleek and simple, it’s a tad louder than I’d like but nothing too crazy. My only reason for not giving it 5 stars is because I wish it had lights on it. Other than that, this vacuum is perfect for every day use and to tackle any mess your house has to offer!

Solid Pet Vacuum
on May 27, 2025
Posted by: GardenWeaver
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, I’m really pleased with this vacuum. It’s well designed, easy to use, and everything from assembly to daily use was incredibly straightforward.
The suction power is outstanding. I have two large dogs who shed constantly, and this vacuum handled the mess with no problem. I was honestly shocked at how much hair it pulled out of my rugs. It picked up hair tumbleweeds around my baseboards with ease. I used it on hardwood, area rugs, and carpet, and it performed beautifully on all of them.
One of my favorite features is the self-cleaning brush roll. With all the pet hair in my house, I usually have to stop and cut tangled fur off the brush, but not with this vacuum. So far, it’s stayed clear with no manual intervention.
The onboard hose is easy to use and great for quick jobs, though it’s a bit short for reaching some areas. That said, the portable canister made getting into high or tight spaces an lot easier. The vacuum is also much quieter than others I’ve used, which I really appreciated.
My only real downside is the small size of the dirt canister. It fills up quickly, especially in a house with heavy shedding, so I found myself emptying it more often than I’d like. The cord length is fine, not especially long, but adequate.
Overall, this vacuum is powerful, user-friendly, and ideal for pet owners. If the canister were a bit bigger, it would be perfect.
I would recommend this to a friend!
