Good stick vacuum
on May 3, 2025
Posted by: Ali1415
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Bissell PowerClean FurFinder is a good handheld/stick vacuum that worked well on area rugs, hardwood floors, and tile. It effectively removed fur and hair from my area rugs and hard floors. However, it struggled with small debris and crumbs compared to my other stick vacuum. Additionally, when vacuuming thin rugs, it easily sucked them up but then shut off the suction.
I appreciated the bright headlight that illuminated a wide area of flooring, making it easier to see what needed cleaning. The vacuum was user-friendly, with the power button staying on when pushed, unlike my other stick vacuum that required holding the button down. It offered multiple power levels, which was convenient for different surfaces. The detachable attachments made it easier to vacuum different areas. The charging station attached directly to the wall, allowing for convenient storage and charging.
Unfortunately, the battery only lasted about 30 minutes, making it impractical for vacuuming the entire house at once. However, it stood upright independently off the charging stand, providing a convenient option for breaks. Overall, it’s a good stick vacuum that serves its purpose. If you have a dog that sheds more than mine, it might be even more useful.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bissell FurFinder dream
on May 3, 2025
Posted by: Katie8
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With 4 kids a dog (and husband), having the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder to tackle the daily mess has been a godsend. The illuminated headlights made those under-island crumbs easily found and eliminated. Our vizsla has the smallest red hairs that like to find every nook and cranny of our couches and rugs which is easily sucked up with the FurFinder tool. I love having a cordless option to zip around the house without being attached to a wall. It also makes it convenient to take out to the car for a quick crumb cleanup or zip upstairs to suck up dried playdo. The charge easily held for the entire downstairs of our home (~1500 sq ft). The handheld component was a bit bulkier than other stick vacuums out there, but still maneuvered well and didn’t have a problem with fur and hair with the tangle-free brush roll. Overall a happy customer here.

A nice self standing stick vac
on May 3, 2025
Posted by: Julesss
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Bissell PowerClean FurFinder is a decent cordless vac. I like that it is self-standing but thought it looked like it could tip over at any second.
Pros: the lights are so handy! The lights are so nice especially for hardwood floors - to see what you're vacuuming up. The self-standing design is a huge plus but it definitely could be more stable. I like that it has a hanging base to charge and the base has the ability to hang the attachments as well. I really like how lightweight it is and that it's a fairly quiet machine even on the highest setting. I like that this has a removable battery so you can have a backup.
Cons: I am not a fan of the dustbin design. I'd prefer a more hands free or button design. You have to remove the filter to empty the dustbin and if I'm vacuuming I want to have a quick and handsfree option. The dustbin is also very small.
The furfinder design seemed to not get very deep on carpet. I really like the idea of a furfinder attachment but wish it was executed a little better. Suggestions/my preferences: I would love an auto detect option - even if it was just for carpet to hardwood.
Overall, this is a fine cordless stick vac. At this price point and with this brand, it's not overly luxury but it's practical and good for busy families.

Furfinder
on May 3, 2025
Posted by: BissellFurfinder
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely love this vacuum. I have a different brand in a similar style and it is not nearly as good at cleaning floors/furniture. We have a lot of hardwood in the house and many vacs struggle to actually get the dog hair off wood floors, but this one has no issues. The headlights are amazing at helping to spot areas of dust/fur that your eye doesn’t always see. I’m similarly impressed at how effective it is on furniture. Having a golden retriever, it is hard to escape fur in the house whether it’s couches, carpets or floors. One of my favorite features is that it stands upright on its own. Other brands are too top heavy to be able to do this and require bolting the charger to a wall. The charging cord is also slim not bulky. I would highly recommend this to anyone not just with a dog as it’s amazing with dust as well. We recently painted and had floors done in our home and this had no problem getting the floors cleaned after all the sanding.

Perfect For Pets
on May 3, 2025
Posted by: Micah
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife and I have a Siberian husky at home, and keeping up with the pet hair has been a challenge since the day we got her. We’ve had a corded vacuum for a few years, and while it worked well, I really wanted to find a cordless option. We tried a different model from another brand, and I thought it worked pretty well until I tried the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder. There is really no comparison. The Bissell performs very well on both the hard surfaces, and the rugs in our home. It’s a little heavier than the other cordless vacuum we have, but it’s still easy to maneuver, and I appreciate that it doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy. The headlights on the front of the vacuum were far and away better than other models I’ve owned in the past. Our dog’s fur can be tough to see sometimes, so they really did make a difference. I also appreciated that the vacuum stands up on its own. The other cordless vacuum we have doesn’t have this feature, and it makes it way easier to store when we’re not using it. The best part of the vacuum for me though, is the FurFinder tool. I’ve tried a lot of things to get the pet hair off of our furniture in the past, and nothing has worked as well as this. It’s also super easy to switch the attachments, so that’s a plus. I do wish it had a little longer run time on the high setting, but all in all, that’s a minor concern for an otherwise great addition to our cleaning routine.

Family Vacuum FOUND
on May 3, 2025
Posted by: Gkomalle
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been looking for a vacuum for our growing family of 4 that includes two pets. This vacuum is the best there is! I was so impressed after the first use and have been telling all of my friends about it. The light feature that shines while vacuuming allows you to see all of the dirt and pet hair on the floor. I was amazed at how much my robot vacuum misses each day. I now exclusively use the Furfinder daily. It is so light and easy to use and I enjoy vacuuming for the first time ever. Not only can the Furfinder be used on your floors but it is also amazing at cleaning fur off of furniture. I have a cat and dog that both shed and I have never had such clean furniture and I cannot thank the Furfinder enough.

Excellent vacuum
on May 3, 2025
Posted by: Gshev
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to assemble and use! With 2 big dogs I need all the help I can get. This vacuum got so much hair out of the upholstery and floors! The lights make it so you see more fluff balls under tables and other surfaces.
I appreciate the tangle free brush as well!

Really Effective For A Stick Vac
on May 3, 2025
Posted by: MomOf2Boys
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been hoping to try a cordless stick vac for a while now as I have 2 cats and 2 preschool-aged boys (so they create lots of messes but keep me relatively busy, meaning the best opportunity I have to clean is after my kids go to bed, but of course that means that anything loud is out). I don't have any other experience with a stick vac to compare it to but I found this to be more effective than I thought it would be. It runs quiet enough that I am not worried about using it downstairs after bedtime, but still has enough suction power (at the medium power level, which is also the default level the vacuum turns on at) to pick up most of the messes on my floors (which are made up of a mix of wall to wall carpeting, hardwood floors, tile floors, vinyl floors, and area rugs). I did not expect it to perform well on the carpeted areas or area rugs but it did really well on low-pile rugs (but it jammed up the roller when used on the more shaggy area rugs we have) and decently well on our carpet. There is a carpeted corner where our black cat's bed was located for years but recently was thrown away (and not replaced) and there is a very clear ring of cat fur where the bed used to be. This stick vac was able to clean up most of it without much trouble on medium power (pictures showing the before and after). The lights are extremely helpful (my full size corded vacuum also has lights) and I will never go back to using a vacuum without them! The battery life is decent - we have an ~2,700 square foot house and I can vacuum about one floor of the house (minus the carpeted stairs, we have a split level home so there are a lot of stairs) on one charge using medium power (we can do half the house plus stairs if using low power exclusively. I have not tried high power as the instructions state that it is not good for battery life to use that mode too often). I found the canister to be sized right and I generally did not need to empty it partway through vacuuming but definitely filled it by the time the battery ran out. The only major con for this vacuum is that I did find it to be rather heavy (although it was still extremely maneuverable, but I probably will not be using it to clean anything overhead). Overall, I love this vacuum and it makes it really easy for me to quickly pull it out and vacuum (relatively quietly) in a few different places (it's really nice not to have to find an outlet, especially since we have safety covers on the outlets because we have young kids).
I would recommend this to a friend!
