Powerful with Great Features
on November 5, 2025
Posted by: AprilW
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upon opening this vacuum it was very simple to assemble! The look is sleek and it is medium weight, not too heavy but not too light. The design looks like my other high end vacuum with the easy to empty dust collector and I love the labels on everything so you know what is what button. My favorite feature is the automatic cord rewind feature. I hate having to wind up a cord or constantly hold one, with this feature you can change the length easily as you move rooms. Another awesome feature is the headlights so you can see under the bed and couch. It helped me collect the dust bunnies all the way in the back that I would have missed otherwise. The power button foot petal is nice and easy to stop and start. The vacuum stands up well on its own once clicked into place and it’s easy to tilt back. My other favorite feature is the way it swivels, it’s not a hard straight back and forth, you can pivot it which is easy and nice for your arm too. Being able to switch the hard wood and carpet feature is great, be sure you don’t have the wrong feature on since it can make it seem very hard to vacuum if you have the floors setting on while cleaning the carpet! I did also like the pet attachment, it was perfect for our couch! Overall the vacuum is very powerful, it collected a lot of dust even after my robo vacuum went through! I would give this a 4.5/5, only complaint is just the cord sometimes would get underneath the vacuum so you had to hold it up, wish there was a little clip you could use if preferred!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Solved my mental block on annoying cord issues
on November 6, 2025
Posted by: CbusArtsFan
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this vacuum! We have cleaners who come every other week (and have fancy professional vacuums), but with two kids under 5 and two small dogs, I still occasionally need to sweep. While I don't clean constantly, when I need to clean, I NEED IT TO WORK. Our first floor has a mix of hardwood, marble, carpet, and rugs.
This vacuum does an incredible job for its' price point. I LOVE the automatic cord rewind feature. Usually when I vacuum, winding the cord takes me longer than the actual vacuuming. If I could move the cord rewind button to where the cord actually is, I think it would be more intuitive for my husband. He will likely ask me where the cord rewind button is every time he uses it. He doesn't vacuum often, so this is not a deal breaker for me. The suction power is really high - we have a mid pile carpet in our primary bedroom and I actually had to dial the pile setting to high because of how strong it was! I vacuumed our welcome mat, which our professional cleaners also do, and I was SHOCKED at how much came up. Our other corded vacuum at a similar price point does not suck up ANYTHING off our welcome mat, so this was the biggest surprise for me. This vacuum did a great job grabbing autumn leaves off our marble entry way floor, and sucking up loose fibers from our annoying wool rug in our living room. I had to empty the canister after this because of how great of a job it did. Emptying the canister took approximately 5 seconds, and was super intuitive due to the smart placement of the release button.
The headlights are not a feature I have had on a vacuum before. These were actually very helpful in our dining room under the chairs, where my kids drop crumbs regularly. Our rug is dark so crumbs can be hard to see, but the headlights illuminated all of the disgusting things my kids left behind. 90% of our mess happens in our dining room, and the Turbo Eraser attachment did a stellar job grabbing leftover crumbs off of our chairs, and is probably my second favorite feature after the auto cord winder. The on board attachment holder will help us keep track of this handy little tool. The wand itself is also very intuitive and easy to remove from the vacuum body.
At this price point it would be VERY difficult to find a better vacuum that solves my needs. I LOVE this vacuum!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love the Headlights
on November 6, 2025
Posted by: kristendarcy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There are so many things to love about this vacuum, but my favorite are the HEADLIGHTS!! As a stay-at-home mom of two little boys and two shedding dogs, I was absolutely horrified when I turned the vacuum on and immediately saw alllllll the hair and dirt. I promptly turned off the house lights and was even more horrified at what I saw with those little headlights. I vacuumed like I’ve never vacuumed before! I also enjoyed the retractable cord which made it so easy to put away when I was done without cords wrapped every which way around the vacuum. I was impressed with how much this vacuum sucked up and even followed my robot vacuum around for awhile to see how much extra I could suck up. Easy push buttons to release the dirt into the trash is always a plus for me. I was able to get under furniture a few inches but not all the way and the bottom is quite boxy and didn’t get into as many nooks and crannies as I’d have liked. That being said, it’s a great little machine with two of my favorite features - headlights and retractable cord which made this vacuum so great. Once again, Bissell nails it for pet owners and parents.

Fancy little vacuum
on November 6, 2025
Posted by: Brentoia
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have purchased several vacuums over the years. But I like the CleanView Max Tangle-Free Rewind the most. Here's why: 1. The retractable cord is worth it. The rewind mechanism keeps the cord organized and works well. It's fast, watch out. 2. The vacuum is powerful, has head lights to see in dark areas, and pivots to get around furniture legs. It takes a 1-2 times to get used to the manuverability. 3. It has a long metal detactable wand for getting up high or down low. 4. Good acceessories, overall a nice utilitiarian look, simple bin clean out. 5. Barefloor height setting to clean hard surfaces like tile, LVP or hardwoods.
No compliants, just a solid well rounded vacuum.

Great powerhouse of a vacuum
on November 7, 2025
Posted by: COmama88
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog and toddler are constantly spilling stuff on my floors. The Bissell Cleanview Max Tanglefree Rewind picked up dog food and crumbs so easily. I'm a working mother and dog mom, so I can use all the help I can get. It has great suction, and I love the rewind feature. I absolutely hate winding the cord back up. Sometimes, I will just loop a cord around the handle of the vacuum, which drives my husband nuts! This vacuum lets me put the cord away with a click of a button. The headlights are pretty bright and also come in handy. The Rewind cleaned my hard floors and was pretty easy to push. Overall, I was impressed with the suction - especially on carpet and my rugs. Just make sure to adjust the height for area rugs- it becomes really hard to push with the suction if you don't adjust it enough.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best Quick Mess Vacuum
on November 7, 2025
Posted by: Rachel
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to get the CleanView Max Tangle-Free Rewind vacuum to clean up our new house! We have 2 kids and a dog so messes are never ending. Right out of the box, I was pleasantly surprised that there was only a few pieces to click together before I was ready to start cleaning. I love that the handle pulls out so easy and you can attach tools right to it. It has made cleaning up the couch and under things so quick and easy. I also love that you can just push a button and the cord winds itself up! I never thought that would be such a game changer but I don’t know how I lived without it before. Emptying and cleaning the tank is also quick and easy. Everything comes apart so easy and can be rinsed out. Once everything is dry, I can put it back together again and I am ready to go again. This has been perfect for making sure the suction continues to be great every time I use the vacuum.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not a bad vacuum
on November 9, 2025
Posted by: GigiSas
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always been aggravated when hairs, not necessarily dog hairs per se, get all tangled up in the rollers of a vacuum. I have long hair and my dog has toys that she rips apart that leave long threads, both get tangled up in other vacuums. I did enjoy this vacuum for having a tangle free brush roll. I did notice when I put it together to use for the first time that it had somewhat of a "cheap" feeling to it like it may not last long, but of course it is too soon to tell. The swivel steering made it so easy to maneuver around furniture like tables and chairs, but I kept worrying I would swivel it "out of control" and break it at some point. All the debris my dog and our feet have brought in the house was easy to vacuum, especially on bare floors. It also did a good job on runners in hallways, but it was more difficult to use on shag carpet and did not clean that as well. There are also settings to choose higher pile or lower or no pile for bare floors. The knob is easy to turn. The lights are bright and a huge bonus for showing dirt, I did not even have to turn the lights on in the hallways when I was cleaning! It did a great job of picking up hairs, dirt, sand, and even cereal that had spilled, so that was a plus. I really love having a cord rewind feature because one thing I hate about vacuuming is having to wrap the cord when I am finished. With this Bissell, you just tap on the button and the cord winds up for you automatically, no need to bend over and drag the cord and wrap it! The extensions made it easy to reach some spider webs we have neglected around smoke detectors and in corners, even for me at 5'4". The extension wand was also easy to release and use. I will definitely use it daily for quick cleanups, especially when I need some lighting or the wand. The suction is powerful enough even when using the extension wand and it sits on board the vacuum without falling off during use. I found the vacuum to overall have a good design and maybe not of superior quality, but not a bad vacuum for the price-point. It does get the job done and is easy to dump out and clean for the next mess. It is also not too heavy or back breaking to maneuver.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I was disappointed in the structure, it's very unstable and you have to use both hands and all your might to lock it upright in place. I love Bissell but this one's a miss for me.
Response from BISSELL HomecareBy Janelle McFarlane, BISSELL Consumer Care, March 30, 2026
Sorry to hear this machine felt unstable and didn’t meet your expectations, especially as a BISSELL fan. The upright lock can sometimes feel stiff at first, and our team can share tips to make it easier to secure and use. We’d appreciate the chance to help at support.bissell.com.
