Great Vacuum for the Price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lots of pros and a few cons for this vacuum, but overall great value for the price! Pros first: HUGE canister - the photo shows the dirt from the entire first floor of my home (with 2 pets, after it hadn't been vacuumed in a week!), and I didn't even have to dump it mid-cleaning like I do with my other vacuums. I also loved the pet eraser tool - I have a short-haired dog whose hair gets absolutely embedded in our twill-like couch, and it's almost impossible to clean. The tool didn't get 100% of the hair, but it did better than anything else we've tried! I also like the swivel feature, and the extension wand is super long and effective even if it's not as flexible as I'd like. Cons: it feels a bit cheap and plastic-y, but that does make it very lightweight for its size. The size is a bit larger than I'd like for the base of the machine (to fit easily in closets). Overall, very effective and easy to use! I received this item to test through the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum has exceeded our expectations! I was given this upright vacuum to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. We have a toddler and a baby and a dog that sheds quite a bit. When I say, I thought our rugs were clean(ish) and had recently vacuumed before using this - I was blown away and a bit disgusted haha. I could not believe how much hair and dust our previous vacuum was just rolling right over. This one seems to actually brush the dirt and dander out of our rugs without damaging them. The clean view canister is very satisfying to see how much you're actually accomplishing and the vacuum feels surprisingly light because of how easy it is to maneuver. The tools are great for pet hair on the couch and carpeted stairs as well. The only thing I wish it had would be a retractable cord.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Decent vacuum

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this vacuum for free as a Stellar Panel review item. This vacuum came packaged nicely and was easy to assemble. I really didn't need directions. It looks ok; it's a little cheap feeling with so much bulky plastic. I am impressed with the sucking ability for any floor type (I have hardwood, tile, and carpet). Like this thing SUCKS and feels adhered to the ground. I was pretty disgusted with what it got up and I had just used my regular vacuum the day before. I have 2 cats, a dog, and 2 messy toddlers. This was great for open flooring areas but the head is pretty bulky and not great for going under couch/ bookshelf, around tables, etc. I like the different options for flooring but I do not like the placement of the adjustment knob on the head. It was kind of annoying to keep bending down to change the suction type. I wish it was on the handle. I used the extension wand for under my bed (hardwood) and it did do a good job. I wish it had a little light at the end but I made do with my phone. I liked the brush option for this because it got all the car hair "tumbleweeds." Overall this is a good quality vacuum but there are a few design changes that would make it 5/5.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Packs a punch in a lightweight vacuum, especially with pets

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a big fan of Bissell, so I was more than happy to try out the CleanView Swivel Pet vacuum. I have two cats and two dogs, so being able to clean up hair easily is a priority. While the design hasn't changed much for clear canister vacuums over the years, it's still a nice looking machine. It was a nice color scheme and it was lighter than I expected. The lightness did make the vacuum seem a little cheap-feeling, but the performance while using it quickly changed that opinion. The brush roll and swivel made it relatively easy to get around the room and was similar to how my cordless vacuum maneuvers. It also seemed to go deeper under things than I expected. The extension wand was nice and made it easy to clean blinds or ceiling corners. It would have been nice if it was also suited for places like the top of fan blades or any high shelves, but it's nice to have that extra reach when you need it. I think there could have been more tools provided with the vacuum. Those that came with it worked well enough, but it's nice to have different more options for different scenarios. I think the smaller wand with the brush head was my favorite tool. I could see it being the one I would get the most use out of. Overall, it's a great vacuum that's easy to zoom around the house to clean up pet hair and more. I would definitely recommend it! And thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this upright vacuum to try out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this in exchange for a review from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. While I have other Bissell products, I don't have a Bissell vacuum. I had one many years ago and didn't love it, so admittedly my expectations weren't very high. I have a toddler, a dog, and four cats, so we vacuum a lot. We need something that does a great job and can stand up to heavy use. When I took this out of the box, the first thing I noticed was that it was very light. That can be a pro or a con depending on your needs. For me, it's a con because I've found that if the vacuum doesn't have the weight to really press down on the rug, it's not going to get everything out of it. However, this one surprised me. There was definitely more dirt in the canister than there is in my other vacuum. We do have very low pile rugs and hard floors, and I don't think I could recommend it for a high pile rugs. Then there is the issue of heavy use. Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last the way we use it. It's light because it's made of light plastic parts, and that tends to not lend itself to longevity. I've only had it for a week so I can't say for sure, but that's the feeling I get. If you don't have a lot of kids or pets and you don't have high pile rugs, I think this would be a great vacuum for you. If you do have those things but this is the price point you need, I think you'll be happy in the short term. I can't speak for the long term.

Great versatile vacuum--especially for families with pets!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a sucker for the latest and greatest cleaning products so I have used a lot of vacuums and this is a great vacuum that's lightweight, but still works great! I usually use a cordless vacuum but the battery dies so quickly so this was nice that I didn't have to worry about that, and the cord didn't bother me. It's moves really well, much better than my stick vacuum! The swivel function makes it easy to move around furniture. The brush tool was really interesting-it's hard plastic so it's much stronger than others I've used with a bristle brush and really works well for couches and furniture, especially on pet hair! It was easy to attach the extra tools too. The only con is the cord, since I'm used to using a cordless vacuum, but it actually didn't bother me and I appreciate that it has more power and lasts longer than my cordless vacuum. Definitely recommend-especially for families with pets! I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

A Good upright vacuum

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] [I received this upright vacuum from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.] This is a solid upright vacuum. It's not too heavy (I can pick it up with one hand, not for too long though) and easy to maneuver. It's very easy to assemble-took me less than 5 minutes. It can be used on both hard floor and carpet and the head doesn't need to be switched, which is nice. It has 5 different levels of suction. Although I didn't feel the suction power was particularly stronger than any other vacuums. The cord is long, so I didn't have to constantly unplug and plug unless I was going to the next room. It comes with a pet head for cleaning pet hair of fabric, which is nice, although I was not sure if it's better than other fabric cleaning heads that are not specifically for "pet hair cleaning". We have a cat and a big German shepherd who sheds like crazy and the vacuum worked fine for us, with mostly hard floor and just a few area rugs. A few things I didn't like about the vacuum: 1. It's not a small size, I'd need to find storage for it and it feels like a "task" to just pull it out to use. Also, although it's not heavy, I did feel like I had a light work out after pushing it all around the house. 2. It's not very easy to put it back to the upright position, I needed to pay extra attention to make sure the bottom "clicks". I've never had this problem with other vacuums before, not sure if it's only the unit I received. Small thing but annoying. 3. The cord is long which is nice but it sometimes gets in the way of cleaning. But this is true for all upright vacuums. 4. I don't like how you have to put your hand in the dust bin to remove the filter. After 1 or 2 use, the dust bin will get very dirty and I don't feel like to sticking my hand in there!!! Overall, it's a solid vacuum, I'd consider buying it, especially when I have pets at home

Pet vacuum vs. Golden retriever and Longhaired Cat :)
on July 26, 2024

Verified Purchase:No
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think this is a reliable, budget friendly vacuum for everyday use with AWESOME attachment tools and features for cleaning up pet hair. First impressions: lightweight which is great for daily vacuuming upstairs & downstairs; detail attachment tools are so helpful; the spin brush roll is large and wide and I haven't seen dog hair get caught in the brush yet! Love that I can easily carry it around since i have to vacuum daily with golden retriever and longhaired cat. I was surprised at how lightweight the vacuum is because it does have a larger body and power head. I'm obsessed with how far the extension wand can reach and the pet hair attachment tool is so powerful! My favorite tool is the 2 in 1 detail tool with the soft/thin brush at the end. I cleaned all of the nooks and crannies of my bookshelf which was so satisfying. There are a few things I wish were different: the power button and release button to lean the vacuum back is positioned at the bottom; when emptying the vacuum, sometimes I have to pull some of dog hair that gets wrapped around the cyclonic piece; I wish the main handle could go lower to reach even further under the couch; I would prefer the body and power head of the vacuum to be thinner. Given that the price point is so reasonable, I give it 4 stars because it has awesome pet attachment tools, it has a 3 year warranty, and the brushes seem to keep up with my fur babies hair! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this upright vacuum!
