[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm going to be blunt - this vacuum looks and feels cheap. There is a HOLE in the top of the handle - unless I was missing a piece in the box, which would also be disappointing, but from the instructions page, it looks like the hole is intentional - and it feels lightweight and flimsy. I have a cat, and have had multiple cats in my household, so a good vacuum is a necessity. I would recommend this only for low traffic areas, and I certainly would not replace my Shark with it. Luckily, this was received for free through BzzAgent; if I had actually paid more than, like, $30 for this, I would have been angry and returned it. As a plus, it IS lightweight, and thus pretty maneuverable. I will still get use out of it, but I will continue depending on my Shark.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for your review, Cymoril. This vacuum is designed to be light weight, compact and easy to maneuver, yet powerful. The hole in the handle is designed for extended reach. Please see page 7 of the User Guide for details. We're always here to help with your vacuum at support.bissell.com.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I rent a one bedroom with den with plank flooring in the entryway, bathroom and kitchen; carpet in the rest of the home. With two cats there is always hair and this vacuum worked great on both types of flooring and worked extremely well in small spaces!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: lightweight, inexpensive, great suction, amazing vacuum lines, handy attachments, easy assembly, compact, large dust cup Cons: feels cheap and might not last years (? TBD), power cord not as long as other vacuums I've tried and are used to, not the best for cleaning stairs, impossible to get underneath furniture, doesn't glide super smoothly This is a great vacuum for the price especially. Makes crisp vacuum lines and fluffs worn carpet right back to life. Love how large the dust cup is and how compact for easy storage. It does have some shortcomings though, it does feel cheap. As to be expected with the price but I don't feel like that's necessarily a bad thing considering how inexpensive it is. It's pretty impossible to get underneath any furniture without actually moving it and the cord isn't super long so unplugging and moving around even if you have a smaller area is something you'll be dealing with. With all that being said I would recommend this vacuum to someone who's on a budget. Great for a young newlywed couple or a college student. Lots of bang for your buck.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ok, I'll be honest life got in the way and I let my apartment get out of hand!! The way this vacuum picked up the dust and dirt from the carpet! I've never seen my carpet so clean! I wish I would've taken a before and after picture! Definitely a must have if you have small kids or pets!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used the BISSELL CleanView Compact Upright Vacuum for two weeks now and it is by far the best lightweight, compact vacuum I've ever used. It's super light and it even makes it easy to vacuum stairs, which is always SO painful! I've tried many different vacuums and stick vacuums that left me with unsatisfying results - but I've finally found one that really works!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use it on my rugs, couch and hard floors. It is very light weight and it has great suction on my rugs and couch. I love the long chord and tools. It picks up all the crumbs and dirt my kids leave behind. The cons of the vacuum are that it doesn't work as well on the hard floors. It picks up stuff on hard floors but it also kinda throws the dust to the sides. But after a few pushes it eventually gets all of it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great. Initially I was scared tool see how small it was and lightweight. But it's actually very powerful and works great.
