Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this vacuum after owning a Dyson Animal for 5 years. The Dyson died right after the warranty expired. I did not get the extended protection from Best Buy when I got it, UGH i regret THAT. So I will compare this Bissel with the Dyson Animal:
LOVE
- Great suction
- Light weight
- Levered head (the body of the machine can go low in levels to reach under the sofas and stuff, very nifty)

HATE
- The hose is tiny and doesn't extend much so you have to hold the vacuum next to you or it will fall on you. The Dyson hose was superior in all respects.
- You cannot turn off the motorized head.
- Fur and junk gets stuck in the top cyclone part of the canister, so opening the bottom is not enough. You have to put your hand inside and unscrew it to get everything out. Granted it is easy to get it out and get it in but who wants your hand in all that junk?
- The location of the extended wand (tiny one too) is where you put the cord, so when vacuuming you need to hold it in your hand or it will fall. I use it so I am stuck carrying it.

COMPARISONS
- The suction is great compared to my Dyson. I have 1 Golden, 1 cat, 1 rabbit and the Bissell actually picks up fur very well. Also, the Dyson sometimes had problems with the hay (straw for the rabbit) but the Bissell has suctioned the hay no problems even with its not-too-perfect hose.
- I love the lightweight, compared to the Dyson this is a feather. It is easy to go up and down the stairs.
- The cord on the Dyson was a lot longer, the Bissell gets the job done but you may need to unplug a couple of times depending on the size of your home. Not a deal breaker.
- I am unsure as to how long this vacuum will last, but for the price and considering my Dyson only lasted 5 years I could have bought a new Bissell every year and have money to spare.

If I had the choice, I would buy it again (unlike the Dyson, never buying one again!!!) - so yes I would recommend it.
My Best Buy number: 0557027444
I would recommend this to a friend!
