BISSELL ICONpet Turbo Vacuum Cleaner: Powerful Pet Hair Removal for Carpets & Floors

Karen M: My disappointment in this vacuum is large. I don't need much, and I will do my best to make things that are not perfect work for me. Unfortunately, I waited too long past the return date. I had it for 2-3 months before I gave up and contacted Bissell. The strongest of my dislike is that the suction power is inadequate on any setting but Turbo. This gives me roughly 12-13 minutes of use followed by 4 hours of recharge time. It does not work on carpet (and looking back on the ads, I see that it does not mention carpet; silly me, expecting a vacuum to work on carpet). I have to use the upholstery tool on the carpet. The main floor attachment falls off too easily, which takes two hands and isn't easy to reattach, although I've gotten better with time. If I'd had very low expectations, I would have been happy with this vacuum. I never hate anything! I have accommodated for items that do not always meet my expectations, but this thing just disappoints me.

Update: I took my little Bissell stick vacuum to an authorized Bissell dealer who is expecting the parts to repair it today. He told me that stick vacuums are not meant to be used on carpet. They...

Maureen LaVallie: I like some things about this vacuum. I like that it is portable no cord, it has a light showing you the stuff on the floor, easy to empty and clean. Now the things I am not happy with are the weight of it, its cumbersome, it doesn't pick up all the pet hair off the rug, it has a real mickey mouse way of putting the battery onto the charger (not easy to do if you have the charger mounted).I would not buy it again. I must say tho customer service is great.

Amazon Customer: Bought this a few weeks ago after we had purchased a Hoover cordless at the beginning of the year. And return the piece of crap! This is a little heavier to carry up and down stairs but it’s worth it for the suction. The battery only lasts about 1/2 hr but at least it picks up and doesn’t shoot everything out when I pick it up to move it. And we also love the light on the bottom for darker days. So far we are pretty pleased with it.

MrsMotoMrsMoto: If you have pets or kids or a husband you need this!! I got it on sale on Amazon for 200 and some change and it was totally worth it. I use it around my cat litter box, the hamster cage, and in bathrooms where my hair and my husband's beard clippings dwell. This sucks everything right up! Now listen; this vacuum I wouldn't recommend as a daily whole house vacuum. The battery doesn't last long enough for that, and the suction isn't enough for a deep carpet clean. This bad boy is PERFECT for small quick messes like around cat boxes and bathrooms or in a dryer's lint trap. It is also exceptional at getting up fine beach sand as we bring that in daily. I use it every morning for quick touch up cleans and it's perfect for that. It would be spectacular in a camper/RV as well! All of the attachments store nicely together in a very secure and easy to mount wall piece. I also use it to vacuum my daughters fluffy rug in her room since my Dyson is too powerful for that and tries to eat it. I would recommend this vacuum to anyone wanting quick jobs or pet messes, not so much whole house cleanliness as I said before. I bought it in 2020 approximately one year ago and haven't...

Tadeusz Smol: It look good and work fine for 3-months, however in the past few days it quit on me. I went to authorize dealer and repair shop and was told that electronic components is toasted and there is nothing they could do about. Poor quality stay away from this brand!

Andrea C. Hoerner: I have waited to write this review until after using this vacuum several times. I had the older style Electrolux Ergorapido Stick vac that I was very happy with for years and it finally died. After extensive review-reading I choose the Bissell based on eliminating other brands/models. Always read the one- and two-star reviews; they are most likely to be real.

It took a couple uses for me to get used to having the weight at the top of the vacuum but now I'm hooked.

I have mostly hardwood floors with two or three low-pile area rugs in my 900 sq ft home. I started out using the brush roller, which worked well and had long run time (at least 25-30 minutes). But I have found I prefer the even higher-suction of the floor roller. I think the battery is drained a little bit faster but it really sucks all the cat hair and debris up. I vacuum about every 4 days.

Is it quiet? No. But it has great suction and it does have three speeds, the lowest one being the quietest and using the least amount of battery.

Is it maneuverable? Yes!

Does it keep debris contained when you turn it off? Yes!

Does it reach under things easily? ...

Icarus: This is a well build stick vacuum. Good run time. Easy operation. Definitely picks up the dirt. Easy to change attachments. Easy to clean the filter and empty the canister. Only downside I've heard about it it the canister, you have to be careful with when you take it off and put it on. Can crack if you aren't careful doing it.
