The first cordless vacuum I am keeping
on August 21, 2025
Posted by: singlemamawithdog
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had cordless vacuums in the past and ended up returning every single one of them because they were either too weak, constantly jammed, or impossible to clean. This one feels completely different. It’s sturdy, durable, and easy to use, I actually have a feeling it’s going to last a long time. Even my 7-year-old daughter has made it part of our post-dinner routine: she wipes the table, then grabs the vacuum to clean up the crumbs around it. She can even detach the handheld portion to reach tricky spots. If a kid can use it with ease, so can you!
The suction power is impressive, and I love that there are three levels. The highest setting is extremely powerful for big messes on hardwood and tile, while the lower settings are perfect for my collection of southwestern rugs. Unlike other vacuums I’ve tried, it doesn’t get tangled or “eat” the rug, it glides over smoothly while still pulling up dirt and debris. I was honestly shocked by how much pet hair it picked up, even though we’re tidy and have a cleaner come every two weeks.
The headlights are a feature I didn’t know I needed until now. They reveal so much hidden dirt and make cleaning under counters or in dim corners a breeze. The self-standing design also turned out to be a game changer, it no longer topples over or needs to be propped against the wall when I pause. It’s convenient and clever.
What I like most about this vacuum is that my whole family can actually use it. It’s lightweight, compact, and powerful, making it practical for our smaller space without sacrificing performance. It’s multipurpose, easy to maneuver, and genuinely enjoyable to use. I would 100% recommend it to friends and family.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Convenient and Well Made

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unboxing
Unboxing was quick and easy. The top flaps of the carton had instructions for how to easily get the contents out of the package and small illustrations for what's included in the box so I know what I'm getting. This was the first indication that everything about this product is well thought out and developed with ease of use in mind.

Instructions
As a Tech Writer, I tend to scrutinize written instructions and look for things I can "steal" to add to my bag of writing tricks. The manual included is one of the best I've seen. Why? There is a great balance between the written words and the included illustrations. The illustrations are clear and well executed, and while the illustrations do most of the heavy lifting, any included text is concise and perfectly supplements the information presented via the graphics.

Setup
Setup took me about 10 minutes and may have been shorter if I had spent less time evaluating the manual. Each part of the vacuum was clearly packed, labeled, and easy to get out of the packing materials. This was another instance where I felt the creators of this product kept the overall user experience top of mind. Each accessory clicks into the main vacuum unit with a satisfying CLICK and feels secure and robust like it will last for years of use. Removing and replacing the accessories is also done quickly and easily.
I appreciated the inclusion of a wall rack that keeps all the accessories included together AND allows the unit to charge. I took a shortcut and used industrial Velcro to mount the wall rack because I didn't want to drill holes in the wall. This will probably last a while because most of the weight of the vacuum unit is supported by the floor attachment. (picture included for ref).

User Experience
I was pleasantly surprised with this unit for several reasons:
First, the power of the vacuum was way above what I expected. I ran it over the doorway mats from the back yard (covered with leaves and grass) and the garage (mega dust), and this thing picked it ALL up. It was extremely satisfying seeing moderately large leaves getting picked up without losing any suction, while also getting all the grit and fine dust that gets under the mats without having to stop and empty the dust reservoir or recharge.
Secondly, I thought the top-heavy weight of this vacuum would give me some hand/wrist strain after using it for a while and that didn't happen. It's ergonomically designed to be comfortable while in use.
Next, I cannot emphasize enough how well thought out this thing is. When I did empty the dust bin, I was actually delighted to see the little tuck-away handle inside that allowed me to easily grab and twist the filter out of the way and then dump out the dust. Putting it back was just as easy. The battery life seems like its not long enough when you read it lasts for about 40 minutes, but truthfully that's plenty, especially when it seems the intent of this product is to quickly clean small messes and/or keep an area maintained rather than for heavy duty deep cleaning.
Lastly, maneuvering around the house is easy. I could move from hard floors to carpeted areas, and I didn't have to fight with this at all. It is incredibly smooth and surprisingly light to hold and move around, even though the vacuum unit is substantial and weighty.

Verdict
I love this vacuum. I feel like this is what you get when a product is well thought-out from a user's experience. It was so easy to get started using it after setting up, and the inclusion of a wall rack that holds all the parts is really convenient. It also looks great stored there while it charges.
This vacuum feels sturdy and well-made while also being light and easy to use. I love the fact that I can just grab it and quickly clean up and move on to other tasks because it just works, easily picking up large and small dirt and dust with ease. This is a GREAT product.

Impressive Cordless Vacuum Cleaner
on August 21, 2025
Posted by: Snoweagle
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Before using this cordless vacuum cleaning, I had only ever used corded vacuums. When I started using this, I was very impressed. I have a dog and a toddler so messes and hair are a daily occurrence. It has been nice and convenient to be able to quickly clean messes without having to tangle with a cord. It has been very helpful with doing quick cleans around my house. The battery lasted through a quick clean of my entire ground floor of my small house. The suction is pretty good. It cleans most of my rugs well, however one of my carpets it isn't great with I think because of the texture of the carpet needs more bristle to scrub it. Another carpet I have it cleans it better than my corded vacuum. The carpet is a lightweight washable rug and my other vacuum has too strong of a suction for it, but this cordless one has a great low suction setting which works great. The attachments are very helpful to clean furniture and under furniture, as well as stairs and windows. Another benefit is that it isn't very heavy, making it easier to take it up and down the stairs. My toddler loves that he can use it to help Mommy clean. I plan to continue using this vacuum in combination with my corded vacuum occasionally. This cordless vacuum has helped me to clean the daily messes that may not have gotten cleaned every day before making my home feel more clean without a lot of extra work.

Great way to clean
on August 21, 2025
Posted by: APen
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The power clean FurGuard was very easy to set up and get going. It worked great on my hardwood floors and loved having the light as that really helped when cleaning to see spots I missed on my floors. When transitioning from the hardwood floor to an area rug I did need to make sure I change the power setting for picking up dog hair and crumbs that were on the rug. Cleaned up all my pet hair very well, though the filter did fill up very quickly so had to empty it multiple times when vacuuming throughout my downstairs. Again really liked the headlights it made the hard to see areas easier to make sure everything was picked up.

Bissell PowerClean Furguard 280 W
on August 21, 2025
Posted by: HanH17
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum is incredible! The suction power is unmatched. It worked flawlessly on picking up pet hair and did not wrap human hair around the roller! Truly amazing! It outperforms my plug in vacuum even though it’s cordless! I love the cordless design for the ease of use and moving room to room. The headlights are an absolute game changer. I never realized how dirty my floors really were without headlights. I LOVE that there are headlights on the handheld attachment part as well. I like the idea of the stand alone design, however, it’s a little top heavy and it seems like I have to get it just so so for it to not topple over. I also think the emptying features for the collection cup could be streamlined to create a little easier release and dumping method. Those things don’t change the function and use and I absolutely would recommend this vacuum to anyone, those are just minor things I would change if I could! This vacuum has helped keep my floors cleaner and is so easy to use! You won’t regret getting this one!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Powerful and Easy to Use
on August 21, 2025
Posted by: April
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a powerful and easy-to-use stick vacuum! The vacuum has strong suction and works well to remove dog hair from our rugs and fabric furniture. It’s surprising to see how much it can pull out of a surface that I thought was generally clean! The headlight feature really helps to see where there is extra dust or dog hair under furniture. I especially love that the vacuum can stand upright on its own. I’ve had expensive stick vacuums in the past that don’t have this feature and felt like they were always falling over from being precariously leaned against counters and furniture. The only downside is that the vacuum is a little heavy. Overall, this is a great vacuum, and I would recommend it to a friend looking for a vacuum in this price point!

My new go to
on August 21, 2025
Posted by: Kforcarrie
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For context, I’m using this primarily on our main floor in a split level home. It’s just over 500 sq feet of tile with an 8x10 area rug. I have a dog that sheds (short hair) and two small children who are messier than Cookie Monster.
My first test for this vacuum was on the rug immediately after I’d vacuumed w my Dyson to see what it would pick up that the Dyson left behind. It picked up quite a bit of dirt and hair! Right off the bat I had 3 features that I really loved:
#1 Favorite feature: the on/off button. I have developed blisters from our old vacuum’s trigger switch. My finger loves it.
#2 favorite feature: the LIGHTS!! I truly did not expect for this to be so impactful but it really helps on our floors because the tile pattern is so busy, it’s easy to miss dirt, crumbs, hair, etc. the lights really show you what’s there.
#3 favorite feature: it stands upright. No more trying to figure out where to set the thing when I inevitably get interrupted!!
#2 favorite feature: the LIGHTS!! I truly did not expect for this to be so impactful but it really helps on our floors because the tile pattern is so busy, it’s easy to miss dirt, crumbs, hair, etc. the lights really show you what’s there.
#3 favorite feature: it stands upright. No more trying to figure out where to set the thing when I inevitably get interrupted!!
The upholstery attachment worked great!! Our couches both have woven fabrics and are notoriously difficult to get dog hair out of. This small but mighty vac picked up hair that didn’t budge for my stick vacuum OR my upright vacuum’s hose attachment. Bravo.
It feels heavier than the Dyson, but it maneuvers so well, it doesn’t affect my being able to use it as long as I need to.
The two areas I could see improvement in:
#1: Battery life. If I use the lower setting (which is fine for the actual tile area), it seems to last decently long, but when using higher power, it lasts only long enough to do the whole room so could be a limiting factor if you have a lot of floor space to clean.
#2: the can/receptacle is small. Again, is fine for the relatively small area I’m using it in, but would be annoying to have to empty it multiple times in a larger home.

super happy we found a great vacuum
on August 21, 2025
Posted by: elizabeth
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super glad we found a vacuum that really works! With two dogs and plenty of other reasons for messes, this vacuum has been great to have around. Dog hair covered carpets/couches/floors and under the kitchen table have never been cleaner. The light helps see how dirty things are and how clean they can be after a quick pass over! The self-standing feature is great, keeps the vacuum right where we use it. As you can see in the pictures, it is very capable of cleaning up dirt and hair - not being attached to a wall makes it so easy to keep up with everyday messes. I love how easily it disconnects from the base, goodbye spider webs and dirt in hard to reach places! Highly recommend to anyone with pets or kids or life happening!
I would recommend this to a friend!
