Bissell24613 Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Plus Lightweight Vacuum, Tangle-Free Brush Roll, Powerful Pet Hair Pick-up, SmartSeal Allergen System, Specialized Pet Tools, Easy Empty Dirt Tank

Highly recommended.We have a high end vacuum cleaner that is fantastic but it was damaged in an accident so I have been holding off repairing it (I can repair to myself) until I have some time to sit down with it.So I had this idea to buy a stick vacuum, which would cost a very small amount compared to buying a full sized unit.That was OK, the problem with the very low cost units are that they take longer to clean the floor because they are not powerful, and they take effort to clean.Worse still, long human hair, from the ladies in my household, would get tangled in the brush roller and I would have to cut it out carefully every time I clean the floor, taking as long to clean the brush as it did to actually clean the floor.Then I ran it over a hook that is used to hang Christmas Tree ornaments and brush unit was damaged. I performed a repair as best as I could (this low cots units are not meant to be repaired) and it was out of warranty, so it was now working but would stall easily once it pick up a few strands of hair because I did not have replacement parts so it was hobbling along.I got tired of the hobbled stick vacuum and wanted to replace it but now knowing that stick vacuums are not as powerful nor robust as the hyper expensive full powered vacuum cleaners I did some research to find something that was more powerful, could handle long hair, was more powerful and robust as well.That is how I got to this Bissell unit.This unit is far more powerful even though its listed as a stick vacuumIt deals with long hair (and presumably pet fur as well) extremely well, so far its not wrapped itself around the brush, it all got captured in the dust containerIt pulls up a huge amount of dust from the carpet (we had a recent, unexpected, massive dust storm) which the previous stick vacuum left behind, which was rather astounding and easily visible in the front mounted large capacity clear dust container.It also is super easy to dump the contents, you really do just push the button and the trap door on the bottom flips open allowing all the dust and hair to drop straight into the dust bin, so easily.If you turn the powered brush on (which you would always do for carpets) the brush is powerful enough to pull the unit forward so its easy to get it to move and and it steers very rapidly so you can get around furniture legs easily as well.This unit is impressive, is a very good deal for its price, its far ore powerful than expected and picks up more dust and hair than our previous (top rated) stick vacuum so its worth trying this unit for your home.

If you have pets this is the vacuum for you.I have owned so many shark vacuums that quit working in about 6 months . The suction is never strong enough and the brush gets jammed with hair wrapping around it. Not so with this Bissell vacuum, suction is amazing and no hair wrapping around the brush.Only complaint its a little heavy to push but works so well that I don’t care.So good for the price, buy it!

I’m a long time Shark Navigator owner but after the flexible tubing started to break down I searched for top-rated vacuums that could handle pet hair. This Bissell vac was top-rated for attacking pet hair and the included tools seemed great. Well, I had no idea! I put this thing together late at night and ended up vacuuming for a couple hours because I became obsessed with the crevice tool and the pet hair tool. I had no idea there was this much hair in the cat trees and in and around my living room! I vacuum all the time with the Shark! BUT the Shark could never get all the hair off the cat tree and I would have to use a cat brush to pull out the hair. The Bissell attacked that hair fiercely! My house is always clean but now it’s REALLY clean and devoid of cat hair from my Norwegian Forest Cat and my Ragdoll. I have already recommended this to several friends and will continue to recommend it! Just watch out that the tools can scratch certain surfaces!Just edited my review because the attachment "Pet Hair Eraser" stopped working after using it just 3x. I called customer service for Bissell and got an agent who insisted they NEVER warranty the attachments and tried to sell me a new part for 32.99. I got a different agent and he walked me through how to take apart the little pit hair eraser and it worked again for all of one minute and then stopped again. I took it apart again and it worked for 30 seconds. So I called back and got a different agent who didn't understand what I was talking about but FINALLY agreed to send me a replacement attachment part after FIRST insisting that I should mail back the entire vacuum. Um. No. I wouldn't even know how to fit it back into the box it arrived in - and that's IF I still have the box.

The media could not be loaded. I never write reviews, ever. Just don’t typically care to. But I have two fluffy cats and a small dog, I’ve been using a shark vacuum previously and just got this one to try because my old vacuum I’ve had about 7 years and it’s hitting its life limit.I was skeptical if vacuums geared towards pet owners were just a marketing gimmick or if there’s any kind of actual difference, but wow. This one is absolutely insane. I did just the living room, which frankly did not look super dirty at a glance. Yet look how much it pulled up. This is just from the living room/entryway, again with a relatively clean at a glance looking floor. Hard to believe there is that much pet hair trapped in there. Definitely worth it if you have animals!
