Bissell BigGreen 13.5" Pro Cup Bagless Upright Vacuum - BGU1937T for Powerful, Multi-Surface Cleaning

Amazon Customer: It is very light weight and that is really good because I use this at church and it’s so much easier carrying it up and down stairs. It cleans well. It would be good if there was a place to mount the holder that holds the cord where it connects.
You have to make sure you are not vacuuming against the nap. It’s hard to maneuver against the nap and if you raise the height it doesn’t pick up well so make sure you are running with the nap. If doing this it’s great.

Vaanth: I have the consumer/residential version of this cleaner that I have used for over a decade. It still works okay, but is getting worn. I've replaced the brush roller once and the drive belt a couple of times. I wanted a fresh replacement. Bissell no longer makes my old model, but this commercial version fit the bill. It's designed similarly with an easy to use, and clean bagless container and filter system. I can use my spare belts on this one. It doesn't have as many attachments as the consumer version, but some are still usable on this one, so I transferred some over. I have mixed thoughts on the power cord. The cord is a heavy duty commercial style cord that is longer than the consumer version. It is also removable. But it is bulkier and not as flexible as the slimmer ribbed style cord of the consumer unit. The cleaner works a little better and is quieter than my old unit. Although rated as a commercial unit, it seems lighter than my old one. It has proven itself so far and I hope it lasts for more than two decades. My old one is still in service in my second house. Recommended if you want a basic, good performing vacuum cleaner.

PhillyTransplant: I'm a small business owner and I vacuum nightly. I have Bissell stick vacuums at home that I love for small messes and expected to be just as happy with their commercial product. It has a lot of appealing features: it's designed so you can easily replace the cord, and the onboard tools are useful, and it actually is lightweight for a commercial vacuum.

I've been using it for less than a month, and it started out meh and has gotten significantly worse. It's just not powerful enough for commercial use. I've previously used an Oreck and a Hoover and this is significantly less effective than either of them at getting commercial carpeting clean. I find myself using the crevice tool to pick up dirt in the middle of the carpet that the roller brush should get. It has a washable filter, and of course that may be limiting the suction, but I really shouldn't have to wash it this soon: I didn't have this much reduction in performance this quickly with any of my previous machines.

It also blows a really strong stream of air out in front of its path, which blows cards and stickers off of spin racks every time I go past them.

R. SnyderR. Snyder: I purchased this model because it is exactly the same as my home version one. I originally bought the home version for real estate cleaning and it was $40 at Walmart. I had other vacuum cleaners for my house but ended up using this one when they died and I have used it for at least 10 years I can't even remember now exactly how long. It always has had terrific suction. My old one still works but some plastic broke off underneath. It could even be fixed maybe because it is still working otherwise. My problem with the newer vacuums that have the removable push button dumping canister is that eventually they blow dust around (at least what I've experienced) because they don't have anything to lock the suction part in place like these do. The canister may lock but not the part where the dirt flows into the canister from the vacuum. Once that fails or is loose, dust flies around sometimes more than it gets sucked up. I believe it means something that the old home model is just like the Bissell commercial model today. I agree with the other reviewer about the electric cord pigtail. It is odd but I can live with it.
