Great powerful stick vacuum

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Bissel PowerClean FurFinder is a great stick vacuum to add to your cleaning routine. It has a great battery life (compared to my previous battery powered stick),. I can vacuum my entire first floor (3,000 sq ft) on a single charge. The headlight makes cleaning darker spaces so much easier (super helpful on hard floors). The fur finder tool does a great job at pulling up cat hair off furniture, which can be notoriously hard to get out. It’s also nice that it has a self standing feature if you need to pause your cleaning for any reason. The only two drawbacks are that it takes a while to charge and the handle is too big for my hands. The top part of the unit is pretty heavy, so when you combine that with the wide grip of the handle my hand gets really fatigued by the time I’m done. But overall this is a great vacuum and has now permanently replaced my previous brand!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m obsessed! It is lightweight and super easy to move around and get into tight places. The removal hand held piece is super convenient. I have a dog who sheds and this does an amazing job of getting hair off my couch and rug. Also does a great job on the wood floor. The light feature that shows all the dust is amazing. I’ve been looking for a vacuum for so long and finally found the one I need
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There are so many positives with this stick vacuum. Cleaning is easier to keep up on when you have tools that are designed thoughtfully and this is one of them. Some of my favorite aspects with this vacuum are that it is cordless, able to stand on its own without a stand, lighted to illuminate hair, has a built in crevice device, has a step lever to remove the extension from the vacuum roll, and the vacuum roll that does not get tangled with hair. I have two hairy sheddy dogs that to have a clean home I really need to vacuum daily. This does come with a nice wall mounted stand, but I just keep it in a nook in my hallway for easy daily access since it stands up on its own. I can just grab it and go! I have laminate, vinyl, and carpet in my home and this vacuum easily transitions to each flooring and gets the hair up on all of them. The headlights help more on the hard floors and make this vacuum distinctive. I had no idea how much hair there really was until it was illuminated with the FurFinder headlights and it I was able to clean much better since I could also tell from the headlights when I had vacuumed up all the hair. The FurFinder is lightweight and easy for me to maneuver one handed. There is a built in crevice device on the handheld and on the extension. Love this since I don't have to exchange an attachment constantly to get my baseboards done or get into seats. The hand controls are easy to access and intuitive. Another favorite is that I do not have to hold a button constantly. It's just a one press and it is on. It has good battery life and recharges fast too. I've had no issue getting my daily cleaning done for a few days before needing to charge. The attachments are easy to change to and work well for keeping my furniture clean. The brush roll is amazing at not twirling hair around itself and what little there was I was able to remove with my hands rather than resorting to scissors when I cleaned it out. The dust chamber is on the smaller end but is one of the easiest and less messy ones to empty I have had in a stick vacuum. This vacuum with its thoughtful design and ease of use has enabled me to keep up with daily cleaning stress free and walk around barefoot in my home again.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder met the needs I’d expect out of a high quality vacuum. One of the best features is how well it does removing pet hair from furniture. It was removing hair I couldn’t see and then some! It also has a light on the furniture attachment which I feel is unique and helpful. Speaking of a light, the vaccum also has a light on the floor attachment which helps me not miss a single speck of dust. I’d say the fur finder does great on both carpet, hardwood, and just about any surface you would hope to use it for. I have 2 cats, so this was definitely a win. Not all vacuums work on washable rugs, but with this one because you can adjust the setting (3 different suction strengths), I was able to use it on the lowest setting perfectly.
If I had to critique something, the top can be a bit bulky and slightly heavy when vacuuming furniture if you are a weakling like me. Overall, great vacuum!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, against its competitors, this vacuum is up there with top brands. The FurFinder is super easy and satisfying to use, we have faux wood in our home and it was so easy to control, although the swivel is not as easy to handle as others. It is a little on the heavier side, I’m guessing has to do with having a better motor, but thats certainly a plus. It has 3 levels of strength, I loved being able to use a low level on smooth, flat surfaces that don’t require much suction and go to upholstery or fabrics and use the heavy suction, grabs so much out of the fabrics. The running time is excellent, I can use it around my whole house in 1 run without it shutting off, especially if you use it with the low setting! The headlights illuminate all the dust, hair and debris, so seeing clean floors is such a game changer. I absolutely love this vacuum, it’s our new daily vacuum. I give it a 4 out of 5 because it is a little on the heavier side and it doesn’t swivel as good as other stick vacuums, but for the strength and suction levels, it’s not a dealbreaker at all! As a family of 5, 3 of them children, 3 dogs and a cat, it certainly passed the test of cleaning!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a golden retriever and two young kids, and I have to say this upright stick vacuum has been a game changer for us! We’ve used other stick vacuums before, but we didn’t like how they couldn’t go from hardwood to rugs very easily without changing the roller out. They also weren’t nearly as powerful, and couldn’t stand upright on their own. We love the headlights on the FurFinder as it really highlights hidden dog hair on our dark hardwood, the mode button allows for turbo mode which allowed the vacuum to pick up crumbs in a long shag fiber area rug, and the FurFinder and other detail tools that helped remove most of the embedded dog hair from our car upholstery. Other fantastic features are how it can stand on its own and doesn’t need to be docked to store (although it can for charging and storage), that the battery can easily be removed to charge on its own, the easy removal and emptying of the canister, and how maneuverable it is around and under furniture. The battery charge lasts through vacuuming our entire downstairs (hardwood, 2 short pile rugs, and one shag rug) before needing a recharge. Because it’s so good at picking up hair and debris, the canister probably needs to be emptied at least 1-2x during that full job. Ultimately, this vacuum has made cleaning up kid mess and dog hair several times a week super convenient, effective, and fast! Effectively this has replaced two other in-house vacuums and a garage vacuum we use to clean out our cars!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay I am a vacuum lover. I have purchased my fair share of vacuums over the years and this one is really impressive! I have hard floors and area rugs, 4 kids, 2cats, 2 dogs, and there is nothing that this vacuum could not tackle! I love this thing. My only complaint is that if something is too large, the bottom of the vacuum is unable to grab it, but you can easily disconnect the base so that the larger part of the tube gets anything that’s bigger. This thing held its charge really well and I was able to vacuum my entire house without the battery dying! My son spilled a whole box of cornmeal, and it was such an easy feat for the vacuum to clean, I was so impressed! After every meal, I’ve used this vacuum and my house has never been cleaner. The headlights are amazing and they light everything up so you can really see Everything you’re sucking up, ESPECIALLY PET HAIR ! I also love the attachments that it comes with. I love that you can attach the charging base to the wall and the mini vacuum head is incredible! It cleaned my couch so well and really got all of the pet hair off of it. I also love the way that this thing cleans my area rugs. It really does pick up all of the pet hair! I even used this thing in my car and it was so nice to have something compact that could get the job done. Overall, I give this a 10 out of 10.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall this is an impressive vacuum. It's versatile, lightweight, and extremely convenient. Also worth noting is that this vacuum is surprisingly quiet! Despite this lack of volume, it still packs quite a punch for a battery-powered vacuum! Unfortunately, the battery life itself is about the only aspect that has been disappointing so far. A fully-charged battery dropped down to one flashing bar of battery after 10-15 minutes while using the FurFinder attachment on full power.
The FurFinder tool was fantastic for our couch and even an area rug that is particularly stubborn about holding onto cat hair. Having a cordless vacuum that can easily and thoroughly clean frequent pet-sheddings from a couch is a game-changer! It's much more convenient than pulling out a traditional vacuum (that also didn't work as well!).
The FurFinder Headlights both helped to illuminate hidden hair & debris, and encouraged me to do a more thorough vacuuming! While this vacuum does a solid job of cleaning up most spots with a first-pass, this can really emphasize what needs a second go.
This is an extremely convenient and easy vacuum to use. Being able to trust the vacuum to not fall over when you need to take a short break, is fantastic. The tangle-free brush roll helps minimize maintenance of the vacuum as well.
I LOVE that it comes with a wall mount, and that the mount can charge the vacuum without having to remove the battery. It's a great way to guarantee you start every vacuum session with a full battery!
