I was excited to try this vacuum out because I currently have a vacuum that’s nearly 20 years old. There are some really great features in this vacuum but it overall it comes up short.
Pros:
1. The vacuum base pivots really well, rather than just folding up and down, which makes it easier to maneuver.
2. The tank is set a little higher, so the vacuum head can slide under small spaces, like chairs and low shelves.
3. Overall decent suction and cleaning power.
4. Lots of settings, including type of carpet/floor and brush movement, and many add-ons like small brushes.

Cons:
1. The main brush appears to be set pretty low and doesn’t move, which makes it tough to maneuver the vacuum on carpets. I have thin rugs and one plush carpet and it was a struggle on all of them.
2. The cord is set really low on the vacuum, which means it ends up tangled under the vacuum head easily.
3. The cord is fairly short. I have a small house and the cord wasn’t long enough to manage a short hallway between bedrooms.
4. Although the vacuum says it has a HEPA filter, I found it kicking up a fair amount of dust as I was cleaning.

Overall, this isn’t a keeper for me. While I love the swivel head and ability to get under low furniture, the level of effort required to move the vacuum around is significant. I’d also be concerned about the brushes wearing out faster since they don’t adjust up, even when they aren’t needed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Anna. Thanks for sharing your experience. We’re glad you liked the swivel head and under-furniture reach! It sounds like the brush height and cord placement may be affecting your cleaning experience. We’d love to help improve this—please visit support.bissell.com for tips or to connect with our team.

All you need in 1 vacuum

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my Bissell Cleanview Max Lift-Off Vacuum! It’s incredibly versatile and works effortlessly across every area of my home. One of my favorite features is how user-friendly it is as I can easily swap between floor types with just the push of a button. For a full-sized vacuum, it’s surprisingly lightweight and easy to maneuver. It glides smoothly over hardwoods and has a great pivot for tight spaces. I especially appreciate how simple it is to grab the wand for those hard-to-reach areas.
The suction power is outstanding—so much so that it doesn’t turn quite as easily on carpets as I’d like, but the deep-cleaning results are worth it. I also love the adjustable suction feature for different carpet thicknesses. With both thin rugs and thick carpets in my home, having one vacuum that handles it all is a huge plus.
Emptying the debris bin is quick and clean, and the large capacity means I don’t have to stop and empty it often. The pet/stair tool attachment has made vacuuming furniture so much easier—now it’s just part of my routine instead of a dreaded chore. I also appreciate how easy it is to wipe down the vacuum and keep odors away.
Overall, I’m thrilled with this vacuum. It’s replaced our previous model and made cleaning so much more efficient.

Great Suction
on May 26, 2025
Posted by: PapaJ
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently started using the CleanView Max Lift-Off and consider it an excellent option for both carpet and non-carpeted areas. I especially like the convenient slider on the handle to transition from different types of flooring. My home has approximately a 50-50 split between carpet and non-carpeted areas, and I have a small dog. The vacuum has great suction power, pulling out dirt that I didn’t even know existed from our main floor area rug completely filling the canister with both dog hair and dirt. My favorite feature is the combination of how light the vacuum is, and the suction power encased in such a small package. The biggest drawback is the length of the power cord; while not overly detrimental, it does take a few more moves than I would have preferred. Overall, a great vacuum with good suction power.

Best vacuum ever
on May 26, 2025
Posted by: Kris
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have 4 dogs and a toddler, so I am well versed in vacuums. This one is the best I’ve ever used. When I first used it I had already vacuumed with a different one. I was baffled what this vacuum got out of a house that I though was clean. The design is thoughtful and light weight, making it perfect for cleaning across the whole house. I love that all the attachments store directly on the vacuum itself. The liftoff feature is incredibly convenient! I was able to use it paired with the nozzle attachment to clean baseboards, vents, and even dust off the ceiling. The power tool erased any trace of hair off my furniture. When it came to floors my hardwood and rugs were left feeling spotless. The suction was powerful, and I love being able to customize it for the type of flooring I’m cleaning. Being able to choose the suction power and use of the roller makes it very versatile! The features are all so well designed and work seamlessly together to make this the ultimate cleaning machine! Overall it’s a 10/10 from me!

The suction
on May 26, 2025
Posted by: Jessica
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the CleanView Max Lift-Off for a few weeks now, and I’m thoroughly impressed. The design is sleek and modern, and it’s surprisingly lightweight for how powerful it is. The suction power is incredible it picked up dirt, pet hair, and crumbs from both low-pile carpets and area rugs with no problem. I also used it on hardwood floors, and it transitioned seamlessly between surfaces.
My favorite feature is the Lift-Off canister. It made cleaning stairs, upholstery, and tight corners much easier without feeling bulky or hard to maneuver. The attachments are intuitive and easy to swap out, and I really appreciated the long power cord that gave me more reach without constantly switching outlets.
Overall, this vacuum has made cleaning faster and more efficient in my home. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and versatile vacuum cleaner.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nothing special
on May 26, 2025
Posted by: Myzme
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thw Bissell CleanView Max Lift-Off is a decent vacuum but not overly impressive in any way. It's design is pleasant and functional. It's heavier than I expected for its size and it's maneuverability was awkard. found it a bit lacking in cleaning power. I used it on hardwood, tile, and area rugs. I didn't find it's suction to be great on the wood or tile floors. The turbo brush attachment stops turning completely when pressed against any upholstery or furniture, even with very little pressure, making useless. The vacuum works, but its not great. I wouldn't recommend it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Myzme, thanks for taking the time to share your experience with the CleanView® Max Lift-Off®. We’re glad to hear you found the design functional, but we’re sorry to hear it didn’t meet your expectations in terms of suction and maneuverability.
It sounds like the turbo brush may be losing power under pressure. We’d love to help troubleshoot that and see if we can improve your experience. Please reach out to us at support.bissell.com, and our team will be happy to assist.
We appreciate your honest feedback—it helps us make our products better for everyone.

Powerful vacuum
on May 26, 2025
Posted by: aLLy1280
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Move over Shark because Bissell is in the house! The CleanView® Max Lift-Off not only keeps up with my former favorite, but actually out performs it. When I first started using the CleanView® Max Lift-Off I wanted to see what it could handle. I dumped some dried cereal directly from the box right onto the carpet, it sucked it up no problem. I then decided to step on said cereal and crush it into a tiny pieces. It sucked it up no problem. Then I decided to do it on the bare floor. I'm not sure how many can agree with me, but the bare floor claim that many makers claim their vacuum does, it does anything but. So I decided to do the serial test on my linoleum, tiled, and hardwood floors. With minimal effort, the mess was no longer there. Did I mention how this vacuum is so extremely lightweight? If not, I am now! Not in the mood to pick up chairs to get around things or move furniture? No need to worry about that because the CleanView® Max Lift-Off has an ever so smooth transitioning swivel head that makes it so easy to get right into tight corners without having to move everything to do so. When all is said and done, Bissell has definitely gained a new customer! Not only do I highly recommend this vacuum, but I fully support the claims that this vacuum makes because it does exactly what it says it does with no questions asked.
Oh, psst! I completely forgot to mention the Clearview. You can see everything that it sucks up as well as having the ability to know when it needs to be emptied without having to take everything apart, that is complete convenience that I for one most certainly appreciate!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great vacuum
on May 26, 2025
Posted by: Lindsey
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very good vacuum overall. It looks nice and it isn’t super loud. It works really well to clean up any dirt and animal hair on my floors. It works very well on both tile and carpet. The switch to change between bare floors and plush carpet is nice and easy to use since it is just on the handle. It was also easy to turn and was not super heavy. I really like how it isn’t incredibly loud like other vacuums and how easy it is to lift off. The attachments for the vacuum are also nicely stored on the sides. The lift-off feature and using the smaller rotating attachment really made vacuuming my stairs much easier. It was also incredibly easy to remove and empty the container.
