Self standing stick vacuum missing a few features
on May 1, 2025
Posted by: jjking83
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: Self-standing. This is a great feature every stick vacuum needs. It makes picking up child/dog toys so much easier while vacuuming.
Strong suction. We were very happy with the power of the vacuum to get the dog hair up even on carpet/upholstery.
Removable dust bucket. We enjoyed the removable dust bucket as we felt we had much more control when emptying it compared to those that empty from the bottom.
Integrated light. We have added a light to all our stick vacuums to see dog hair better. This result in a protrusion on the brush that prevents us from getting in tight spots. The integrated lights on the brush head are just what we needed. The brush head fits into tight spaces but we still get the light to see the dog hair we missed.
Cons: The "stick" of the vacuum is not collapsible/extendable. This result in a vacuum that is very long. I didn't mind the length but it was a definite negative for my wife. My wife also complained that the vacuum is relatively heavy.
The battery is removable, but an extra battery is not provided. This cuts down on time we're able to use the vacuum. Additionally, the mounting stand is not designed to charge just a battery, so you can't charge an extra battery while you continue to vacuum.
Overall, I am pleased with the vacuum and would recommend the vacuum to my friends and family.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Stick Vacuum
on May 1, 2025
Posted by: Nicole834
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, this is a great stick vacuum that can cover a lot of space. I appreciate all the accessories that come with it and how easy it is to attach them. We primarily used the vacuum on hard wood and tile flooring with some use on carpet/rugs. It performed very well on hard surfaces and the carpet, with no issues. We have dogs with short fur but they tend to shed and leave hair on our brown fabric couches. The vacuum performed seamlessly on the couches and picked up all the hair without a lot of pads over. I appreciate that I did not need to do a lot of run over on my upholstery like I have had to do with other vacuums. This will make my cleaning routine a lot quicker, especially since I am working with a charge time. One critique is the canister that fills up quickly. That is a lot to say in my home because clearly we have a lot of hair. However, emptying the canister doesn’t take much time and is easy to do in between runs. Also, this is the first vacuum I’ve had that has a headlight and what a game changer that is! I’m able to easily see what is ahead and about to be picked up only to guarantee that one run over picked up all the debris on my flooring! Finally, I just loved this vacuum. This is my second cordless stick vacuum and I am very pleased. It was very lightweight and just super easy to use. I have used another stick vacuum by a competing name brand and this Bissell fur finder supersedes it. I love that this vacuum is self-standing and I don’t have to worry about leaning it on a wall or disassemble part of it in order to walk away from it. Great vacuum and I will highly recommend to others!

Pretty good but not for shag rugs
on May 1, 2025
Posted by: Chessna13
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum is pretty good. It is easy to use, if maybe a little clunky feeling compared to my higher-end stick vac. The quality seems great for a low- to mid-range vacuum. It feels comparable in quality to my upright vacuum at a similar price point.
The battery life is good. I think I did about 3 cleaning sessions (about 500 sqft each, so approximately 1500 sqft total) before the battery started getting low.
I love that it is free-standing so I can easily leave it mid-vacuum to move things without worrying too much about it tipping over, and then I can easily resume vacuuming.
The headlights are nice. I can easily see what I'm vacuuming, even in dimmer environments. They are not as great as the lasers for highlighting dust and debris though.
I like the wall mount and tools that come with the vacuum. There is a good variety of your standard tools. They work pretty well, although it can be difficult to get them to lock into place properly.
The vacuum works well on low-pile rugs, upholstery, and hard floors, though not very well for picking up fine dust on hard surfaces. It also does not work at all on my shaggy rug. It tangles up in the roller and then stops, so I don't recommend this vacuum if you have long-pile rugs or carpet.
I don't have any pets, so no pet fur around my house for the vacuum to pick up, so I'm not sure if it lives up to its claims there, but I did appreciate how easily you can clean hair out of the dust bin and filter area when emptying the cup. However, even after only a few weeks of use, there are some tangled hairs around the brush roller, so I'm not super impressed there. The brush roller comes out pretty easily to clean, but there isn't access to the inner bar where the hair wraps the most, so I foresee it being an issue with prolonged use, especially if there is anyone with long hair in the house.
In summary: Pros: Self standing, good battery life, ease of cleaning the filter and dust cup, good lighting, good price. Cons: Doesn't work on longer pile or shag carpets and rugs, still gets hair-wrap around the brush roller, has a somewhat clunky feel, a little heavy for prolonged use.
All in all, I think it's a decent vacuum for the price, and it has some nice features. I would recommend it for this price range as long you don't have longer-pile or shag carpets or rugs, and you don't need it to dust mop your floors, for instance if you have a lot of wood flooring.

Five star vacuum
on May 1, 2025
Posted by: HnrysMom
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot say enough great things about the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder! I had been in the market for a stick vacuum for quick, yet thorough clean up and the FurFinder came to me at the perfect time. A little info about me: Mostly SAHM of toddler, dog with fuzzy/clingy hair, and both carpet and hard flooring in home. Putting together the vacuum was easy as 3 “clicks”- truly that’s all that was needed to assemble.
Oh my goodness- the FurFinder LED lights. These bright lights illuminated everything that our other methods had been missing. Crumbs and dog hair dust bunnies were easily vacuumed up with one pass on both hard wood flooring and carpet.
I am amazed by how quiet the vacuum is and the power. There are 3 power settings, I usually just use the highest setting. The FurFinder attachment made our dog’s sticky hair easy to clean up. Removing the main head of the vacuum to change it into a handheld unit for tight areas can be done with one hand. Unfortunately, I did not install the wall mount charger as we are moving soon, but removing the battery and charging without it was super simple.
Hands down, I would purchase this vacuum again and again! I never thought vacuuming could be fun!

Im No Longer Embarrassed of My Floors
on May 1, 2025
Posted by: Kelz
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stick vac has been a wonderful addition to our cleaning routine in our home with a messy toddler and a German Shepherd that sheds constantly due to allergies. It is designed to handle pet hair, and it certainly has delivered in our day to day. Overall, I am very pleased with this Bissell vac and find myself reaching for it more than my other cleaning tools. The headlights are a neat feature—they help illuminate the floor so I can see the crumbs, dirt and dog hair. When I first used it, I was a bit embarrassed at how much hidden hair and debris I had on our floors. The Fur Finder attachment works great on our sofa and in the car. I was able to get dead grass out of our vehicle carpets effectively and it removed embedded fur from our sofa cushions. I haven’t experienced any issues with tangled hair in the roll brush. I appreciate that the crevice attachment has a brush tip attached. This makes it very simple to switch between tool tips. The Bissell PowerClean is incredibly lightweight and portable, which is a huge plus when I’m moving room to room with a toddler on my hip or packing it for our RV trips. When I must stop cleaning to chase after my baby, the vacuum can stand up making it easy to pick up where I left off. The only minor drawback is that it could be a little more powerful and the vacuum head is a bit small, so it doesn’t cover a ton of surface. However, the portability and features make up for that. That said, it’s perfect for everyday tidying and keeping pet hair under control between deeper cleans. I highly recommend this Bissell for pet owners who need something quick, easy and effective.

powerful tool that makes a difference
on May 1, 2025
Posted by: Enteefada
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed using the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder! My overall impression is that it’s a very valuable cleaning tool. We always have a very hard time getting excessive dog hair off the couch, so that was the best test. Not only did it pick up dog hair, it picked up dirt from the crevices very well. Normally there is some remaining hair that just moves around, but this tool really was effective on the upholstery.
Not only is the suction powerful, but i also really liked the FurFinder Headlights. You can really see dust in small and dark corners, and makes a big difference. It kinda created a shadow where there was mess remaining and dust, which almost makes cleaning a bit more fun!
And we like that it has a wall mount that you can attach all the accessories to - it makes it more convenient in our already full storage area!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Sleek Powerful Vacuum
on May 1, 2025
Posted by: Amli
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very impressed with this cordless Powerclean Furfinder stick vacuum due to its features, style, and sturdiness. Assembly was quick and easy without needing any tools. I love this vacuum for its self-standing design, and it has the brightest LED lights that help pick up debris effectively in dark spaces. This Vacuum comes with additional tools which are great for cleaning the car and other areas around the house. I have young kids who make mess all day long, but they gladly help me clean up their mess with this vacuum as it is very handy and easy to use. Tangle-free brush roller is a notable feature that this vacuum offers which picks up my bird’s feathers, food, and dust particles, and especially hair so efficiently around the house as well as eliminates hair removal maintenance and makes emptying vacuum a breeze. On the hardwood floor, low suction setting works fine, but on carpet I prefer to use a medium setting which picks up more dust, and the battery lasts for about half an hour, which is sufficient for my house. Battery is easy to charge and takes about two and half to 3 hours to fully charged. Easy to reach the power button, +/- suction settings, and easy to put on wall stand when not in use. This vacuum is little heavy, but to me the vacuum’s sturdy body and great suction power outweighs and advocates its weight.
Overall, I love this vacuum and now it is my favorite tool to tidy up my house daily. I recommend this product to anyone who wants to have hassle-free cleaning.

I could not stop vacuuming
on May 1, 2025
Posted by: CBoub8
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As soon as I received this vacuum, I opened it and started using it within minutes! I could not stop vacuuming. The light on the front of this is so great so that you can see all of the pet hair that you are picking up. It's so satisfying! The attachments are so easy to use for hair on the sofa or a dining room chair. The vacuum is so light to push and carry around that it's now become my 8 year old's favorite chore. Emptying the canister is a bit tricky at first, but after 1 or 2 times, it was easy to do. The reason for the 4 star review is because it doesn't hold a charge for the full 40 minutes that it claims. I get a good 25 minutes on the lowest speed until it quits, but it's enough time to get most of my floors done. All in all, great vacuum for pets and kids!
