BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser Slim Cordless Vacuum Cleaner 2921

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far, so good. Just received so have only used a couple of times. It picks up the pet hair very well and it has a better handle than the Shark had. Does not hurt my arthritic hands. Maneuvers easily. Glad I made the purchase!

I LOVE this vacuum. We recently moved into a new house and my bulky 8 year old corded Dyson was difficult to use in the layout of our new place because of furniture and outlet locations, and it found my new Ruggables very challenging. So I decided to take the plunge and give a cordless a try. I had already owned a Bissell dust buster and I loved it, so I went with this Bissell vacuum and I'm so glad I did! It seems to handle my living space just fine on one charge (living room, dining room, kitchen, 2 hallways, 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms). My laundry room off the kitchen is too small to actually have it hang on the wall because of our tankless water heater, so I just lean it against the wall. I had a little trouble with this until I put a rug underneath to stop it from rolling forward since it can't lock standing up (which is just about my only real criticism of it). This vacuum handles my Ruggables just fine, one with the thicker pad and one with the thinner pad. In fact I can use it on the lower power setting on the Ruggables. I also love how quiet this vacuum is. I would often use earplugs with my Dyson because it seemed so loud to me. No problems with this one! I do find it a little cumbersome to use as a dust buster, so I usually stick to my Bissell Pet Hair Eraser instead if I need it. The only other thing I don't like about this vacuum is removing the filter to dump the cannister. It's difficult to pull out, so I end up having to pull harder than I want to and it just pops out and often dust goes all around my trash can when that happens. Still, I love this vacuum. I love how quiet it is and I never knew what I was missing with the headlights! They're awesome!
