Pet Hair? PowerClean Wins!
on March 3, 2025
Posted by: StevenCPat
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The PowerClean Fur Finder Vacuum Cleaner has transformed my cleaning routine, and I'm genuinely impressed with this stick vac. As a pet owner with two shedding dogs, I was excited to test it, and it delivered. It's lightweight yet sturdy and handled hardwood, carpet, and tile with ease, sucking up pet hair, dirt, and crumbs without scattering debris. The FurFinder tool is a standout—on my couch, it removed embedded fur my old vacuum couldn't touch, leaving it looking fresh and cutting my cleaning time.
The FurFinder Headlights were a nice touch, illuminating hidden hair and dust under furniture, making it easier to target messes. It's a breeze to use—light enough to carry upstairs, with a self-standing design that's super convenient and a tangle-free brush roll that stays clear of hair. My only complaint is the dust canister could be larger; I emptied it often during heavy shedding.
Overall, this is a powerful, pet-friendly vac that's elevated my home. I'm so thankful to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing it to test and review!

Powerful Vacuum, Poor Battery Life
on March 3, 2025
Posted by: Kayla B.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this stick vacuum. I'm a SAHM with lots of kiddos and a dog running around the house, so my typical day includes vacuuming up rugs, carpet, tile and hardwood floors from various messes including dog/human hair, food crumbs, outdoor dirt, etc. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to try out this stick vacuum. Aesthetically, it's a pleasing, fairly neutral navy and dark grey, with sleek and modern lines. We keep our vacuum tucked away in a closet, but it's not an eye sore if you need to leave it out. It performed very well on all of the surfaces in our home. When using one of the attachment heads or the FurFinder tool, it seemed to have more suction compared to using the regular vacuum as a whole. I found that I had to keep the vacuum in the same area for awhile and make multiple passes in order to vacuum up everything. I do wish that it had a lower profile, because I struggled to get it to fit under some of our cabinets, and that is where the majority of our foods crumbs gather up in our kitchen. The edge to edge could also be better, as it didn't suck up everything when running the vacuum along a wall. The headlights are very bright and helpful in illuminating messes and debris, not only at night but also during the day. It illuminates with both the regular base and the FurFinder tool attachment. I love the free standing design; my old stick vacuum is always toppling over when resting on something and this was super convenient to not worry about. The tangle free brush roll was also a hit and very easy to clean. The biggest downside is the battery life. I get barely 15-20 min on a full charge; I found myself having to rush to get our kitchen cleaned before having it die on me once I get to our living room. I'm able to vacuum our entire kitchen, living room, sunroom, bedroom, and two bathrooms with our old stick vacuum, so this makes it tricky when cleaning multiple spaces.

Great for homes with pets
on March 3, 2025
Posted by: Jane
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this stick vacuum to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. The Bissell PowerClean FurFinder Stick Vacuum is a versatile and user-friendly cleaning device designed specifically for homes with pets. It combines power, convenience, and a variety of features aimed at removing pet hair and debris from both floors and furniture. It has a sleek and modern design, which makes it lightweight and easy to maneuver around my home. The build quality is solid for its price point, with a combination of plastic and durable materials that can withstand regular use. The compact design allows for easy storage, even in smaller spaces like closets, and the vacuum easily converts from a stick to a handheld model with a detachable handle. This flexibility and included attachments make it useful for cleaning various surfaces, including floors, upholstery, and car interiors. I especially love that the wand is built in when you remove the handle. One of the standout features of the PowerClean FurFinder is its strong suction power, which is designed specifically for pet owners. Equipped with a 2-in-1 brush roll, it is effective at picking up both large debris and smaller particles, such as pet hair, dirt, and dust. As the name suggests, the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder Stick Vacuum excels at removing pet hair. The specially designed brush roll helps lift pet hair from both floors and furniture. The vacuum comes with an additional Pet TurboEraser Tool, which is particularly effective at removing pet hair from upholstery, stairs, and other hard-to-reach places. I had no trouble removing dog hair from my couches and car! This has become a staple in my home cleaning routine and I would absolutely recommend this to anyone, especially those with pets and kids!

Good vacuum for everyday clean ups!
on March 3, 2025
Posted by: Alyssatibs22
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have 3 kids and a dog, so the features of the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder were right up my alley! My dog is a few years old and although he doesn't shed intensely, we do find his hair (and ours!) throughout the home. The best feature of this vacuum is that fact that is has HEADLIGHTS! Yes, headlights! I have purchased so many expensive, name-brand vacuums before and none like this. It is a game-changed! I overall really liked this stick vacuum because it was super-lightweight and portable that even my kids were able to use it! The suction wasn't wonderful, but I found it super handy for everyday cleanups.
PROS: -HEADLIGHTS! The lights on the vacuum illuminated dust and dander that I thought I previously had collected. It helped see in places that I blindly vacuum as well. I LOVED the lights and can not say enough how this was the best feature. -Lightweight and portable -Great swivel and easy to maneuver. -Several different attachments that don't take up too much storage space. The vacuum head itself has a head to it that is stand-alone and doesn't require any attachments. This was super helpful in cleaning tight, spaces and was awesome for car seat cleanups! -Worked great on all different materials- hardwood, carpets, carseats and upholstery -Easy to empty and holds a lot of debris
CONS: -Battery life is poor. If you intend on cleaning your whole house (or even a few rooms) plan on taking several charge breaks. -Although there are 3 different levels of suction, suction is less than I expected.

Life changing for daily touchups
on March 3, 2025
Posted by: libbyr
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder Stick Vacuum for a few weeks now, and I can confidently say it has made my life so much easier! We have two Australian Shepherds that shed constantly, so vacuuming is a daily necessity. Before this, I was using a heavy corded vacuum, which meant lugging it from room to room, dealing with cords, and struggling to clean both our wood floors and carpeted areas efficiently.
This stick vacuum has been a game-changer. It's incredibly lightweight and easy to grab for quick cleanups. While it doesn't have quite the same deep-cleaning power as my corded vacuum, it's so convenient that I can do daily touch-ups—which keeps pet hair under control—and just use my corded vacuum for a deep clean once a week.
The attachments are fantastic—each one has a real purpose, unlike other vacuums where attachments just take up storage space. I especially love how easy it is to clean furniture with this vacuum; it's light enough to lift, and the attachments help get into cracks and pull hair from cushions.
I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, but I wish I had found this vacuum sooner! It has saved me so much time and effort while keeping my home cleaner on a daily basis. If you have pets (or just hate dealing with heavy vacuums and cords), this is 100% worth it!

Sturdy but a bit heavy
on March 3, 2025
Posted by: Nadia
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Overall thoughts: this is a good vacuum stick. I like that it feels sturdy and that it is very easy to clean. But I'm not the biggest fan of how heavy it is, which impacts the maneuvrability. I also noticed that it is not always cleaning up all the debris, especially of rug. Fow vacuuming rugs, I suggest you use the lowest suction setting (super easy to change), otherwise the rug can tangle the brush and stop the vacuum. I also wish it had a better battery life, as it only lasts me for 2.5 small-medium rooms. Despite all this, I am still giving it 4 stars because this vacuum feels like a quality made one, and I'm sure it will last for a very long time based on the quality of materials.

FurFinding Machine!
on March 3, 2025
Posted by: Kelsey A.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ironically, I purchased a generic stick vacuum a few months ago and was satisfied with it until I was provided the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder by the Stellar Product Testing Panel to review. I must say, this is one powerful little machine. It's attractive, sturdy, versatile and has unexpected suction power. The most trafficked areas of our house are about 50/50 hard surfaced flooring and carpet/rugs. We also have a cat and a dog that both shed, and two toddlers. And when I say this thing has a powerful suction, I mean it, nothing was left behind on our hard surfaces. Not even a speck of dust, and I can truly attest to that because the headlights did an amazing job of illuminating every speck of dust and pice of pet hair so I knew I was truly getting it all. I tested the effectiveness of the Bissell versus our corded vacuum on our low profile rug to see what was left behind after vacuuming the rug with the Bissell. I was not disappointed! The Bissell did a great job of grabbing the pet hair, while our corded vacuum picked more dust than anything else. This thing is truly a pet hair machine. I was shocked how well the Bissell performed! Our dog has short wiry hair that can be difficult to lift from upholstery and other surfaces. I used the FurFinder tool on her dog bed and the Bissell had no issues lifting the hair (see before and after photos)! While the vacuum does a great job of standing on its own (something my generic stick vacuum does not do), if you choose to mount the vacuum, the mounting equipment is sturdy and easy to use and instal. There are 3 suction powers and at the medium suction the battery of the vacuum is sufficient for me to vacuum our entire main floor, including our rug. I would certainly recommend the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder vacuum, especially to people with pets or kids who need something, powerful, sturdy, and convenient.

A solid cordless vacuum made for pet parents in mind!
on March 3, 2025
Posted by: Midwest FurMom
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this stick vacuum from the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and as a pet owner with two dogs and a cat, I was eager to put it to the test. My dogs have short, spiky hair that embeds itself into everything, so I need a vacuum that can handle serious pet hair pickup. Overall, I think this is a solid vacuum option. It absolutely excelled on hardwood floors and tile, where the suction power and brush roll worked seamlessly to pick up pet hair and debris. On carpet, however, the performance was average. While it did a decent job, I found that the suction left a little to be desired, and a carpet-specific attachment would have been a great addition.
One of my favorite aspects of this vacuum was the variety of interchangeable brushes, particularly the upholstery and stair brush. The FurFinder tool worked impressively well at pulling up embedded pet hair from furniture, making a noticeable difference in my cleaning routine. It tackled stubborn pet fur with ease, which is a must-have feature for me. I was also genuinely surprised at how much I was missing before using this vacuum, thanks to the FurFinder headlights. This feature illuminated hidden hair and debris, making my cleaning more thorough. I do wish there was an option to turn the light on and off to conserve battery when it wasn't needed, but overall, it's a game-changer.
The self-standing design was a huge improvement from my current cordless vacuum—no more leaning it awkwardly against walls! The tangle-free brush roll was another highlight, especially on hardwood and tile. However, I did find the battery component to be a bit heavy, and the collection bin was on the smaller side, requiring me to empty it once or twice during a cleaning session. This vacuum is great for daily maintenance and quick sweeps, especially on hard surfaces and upholstery. While it could perform better on carpets, the thoughtful design and pet-hair-specific features make it a great tool for pet owners.
