" ... I like a vacuum that's easy to clean, no bags to go out and buy, it cleans very well it even sucks up those little pieces that are close to the baseboards that so many other vacuums miss, it's lite and easy to move around the apolstry brushes work great on your recliners, loveseats and sofas I would recommend this vacuum to any one who is looking to get a new vacuum that don't cost much and works very well take good care of it and you'll have a great vacuum for a long ,long time. ... "
" ... I also used the carpet powder and this vac did a great job at picking up the powder. ... "
" ... I love the ease of unloading and cleaning, the suction tube could be a little stronger but for vacuuming the floor it works perfectly. ... "
" ... I bought this vacuum after I read various reviews about how great it was on pet hair- they are not lying, sometimes it takes two swipes but still AMAZING on pet hair. ... Extremely easy to use, very visible canister and super easy to empty with just the touch of a botton. ... I even had a flood in my house (DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME PEOPLE LOL) but it even doubled as a wet vac. ... I am horrible at putting things together but this vacuum is very simple to use, clean, and at a great price. ... "
" ... Easily cleans and sucks up dirt. ... "
" ... The 1st time I used it of stairs It let me know my old vacuum wasn't doing Everything it had to be emptied 3 times ... "
" ... Feels like its cleaning deep. ... "
" ... I love that it has settings for carpet height too because I have short thick area rugs as well as shag carpeting and this vacuum cleans them better than they've ever been cleaned. ... "

" ... Not only was testing up my carpet, but on o e use plastic broke and started smelling. ... "
" ... I powered it off right away and took apart the bottom. ... "
" ... Even after taking it apart it still doesn't work right because it also melted a piece of plastic that held the brush in place and now the brush won't stay on. ... "
" ... Thought it was the belt because when opening it the belt snapped. ... I ordered new belts and it snapped that one. ... "
" ... Broke after 5 months. ... "
" ... Then after I received a replacement tank I used it one time and the belt snapped. ... "
" ... The roller broke. ... "

" ... Great with pet hair (I have a husky). ... "
" ... So I was replacing a Dyson which broke due to hair wrapping around the roller brush, but I do not at the moment have a Dyson budget. ... So I settled on this one for the promise that it could deal with hair and its price point. ... "
" ... Does great grabbing human and cat hair. ... "
" ... Also great for pet hair. ... "
" ... Really picks up the pet hair. ... "
" ... Picking up a lot of cat hair ... "
" ... I was embarrassed at how much hair this picked up- in my hallway alone! ... "

" ... Not only did the belt break, but the motor is burnt up. ... "
" ... Every time I vacuum I have to take it apart more than once now to put the belt back on . ... "
" ... Heavy, unwieldy, hoses don't all stay attached, makes god awful noise, and suction is truly terrible. ... "
" ... The part that holds the belt on bends too easily and makes the whole thing useless. ... "
" ... The biggest pain so far is that I can't vacuum for more than one session without the belt slipping off. ... Without this belt holding the under-assembly in place, the vacuum only sucks through the hose. ... Unfortunately, no matter what I do, the stupid thing just keeps slipping off. ... "
" ... Where they screw into is a small bushing held by a thin layer of plastic. ... (specifically where the bushing is held in the plastic). ... "
" ... I had to disassemble the Bissell so it would fit in my trash bin. ... "
" ... Even after taking it apart it still doesn't work right because it also melted a piece of plastic that held the brush in place and now the brush won't stay on. ... "

" ... CONS - power cord is a little short, attachment hose is short and it's loud. ... "
" ... The cord has no real place to store . ... "
" ... The cord is too short. ... "
" ... I was very upset when I put this together and discovered it did NOT have a power rewind cord as stated. ... "
" ... Bissell needs to make a recoiling electrical cord because the plastic hooks under the handle is insufficient to hold the cord. ... "
" ... - I wish the cord was longer, but it's standard, which is normal but seriously, they need to make them longer. ... - The attachments sometimes fall off and the ones on the backside occasionally fall off when the cord isn't being wrapping around and stored. ... "
" ... The cord is much shorter than I need to get around our rooms. ... "
" ... The cord is located at the bottom and you have to constantly bend over to pick it up. ... Also, the cord is very short. ... "

" ... The FIRST TIME I used this hose, the hose PERMANANTLY stretched out!!! ... "
" ... The hose is way to short and hardly flexible. ... "
" ... Problem is: the hose is WAY TOO SHORT. ... It says 6 foot hose and that might be true if you stretch it way out as far as it will go but of course if you do that, the whole vacuum cleaner comes with you or falls over. ... "
" ... What I don't like is the hose is too short, shorter than my old one. ... The extension pipes there not in the right place it gets in the way when using the hose. ... "
