Bissell Pet Hair Eraser DualBrush Upright Vacuum with Two Brush Rolls, DualBrush Self-Cleaning Technology, HEPA Sealed Allergen System, Bright FurFinder Headlights, Lift-Off Pod, 42943

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this one! Previously used a powerforce pet deluxe. That one had trouble with certain area rugs in my house. I waited days to test this so that there would be a large build up of cat fur. The headlights are awesome to see the mess, even under the table and one swipe cleans all that pet hair right off the rug! We love it and think its the best vacuum we ever owned. The whole thing comes apart for easy cleaning, it swivels like a dream and it can be dropped so low to the ground that I can get under a lot more furniture than most full size vacuums. I think this little powerhouse will save me a lot of time and with the filter, it should help with allergens!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After opening the box, I was a little bit discouraged by the vacuum. It felt heavy at first, and I was apprehensive about how good it would be. But WOW was I pleasantly surprised by this tool. When I turn the vacuum on, it has some assistance to the push and pull that doesn't make it feel heavy at all. It maneuvers well enough and I'm able to easily get into some of the tight corners around my furniture without too much difficulty. I have a very old robot vacuum that runs daily on my carpet areas to pick up dog fur. I ran the Pet Hair Eraser over the same area shortly after my other vacuum ran, and I was stunned at how much dust and pet fur was still picked up in such a small area. I added some photos to show what shocked me! I didn't know how much dust was living in my carpet until I saw the canister. I have owned a number of various vacuum brands and types over the years, and I didn't realize I was leaving this much dirt behind. The headlights also really surprised me on my hardwood surfaces with just how much dust and pet hair sits around my home. I pride myself on being very clean, and where I thought I was keeping everything very tidy, this vacuum still managed to pick up hard-to-see dirt. Although this vacuum isn't the most convenient for me to pull out of the closet for minor crumbs and messes, it is definitely a valuable tool to have in my home for a weekly deep clean. The downside for me is that I have three floors, and carrying it up and downstairs isn't the easiest since it is large and a bit heavy. I now keep it mainly in my carpeted area and use it there most often. I tried using the lift-off pod and extension hose on the stairs, but it was rather hard to get to all the stairs without maneuvering the large base around. The sticker on the pod did make it easier to figure out how everything worked. I did, however, use the extension on my couch and was really surprised by how much dirt it pulled up there too. I love this feature and enjoy the feeling of my couch being refreshed after vacuuming and feeling much cleaner overall. Overall, this vacuum performed much better than I expected and did a much deeper clean than other vacuums I’ve used in the past.
