BISSELL MultiClean Allergen-Reducing Lift-Off Pet Vacuum for a Cleaner Home

smart shopper: I have 7 fur babies and my house gets lots of crud on the floors. My old Dyson completely broke and it was time for something better. After reading reviews and function I want, I decided on this vacuum. It does not disappoint. I tested it on a rug that the pile has been smooshed down after a long time of using a roller chair on it. It's nearly as low as my hard floor. The vacuum was really grabbing the carpet fibers. It fluffed a little in some areas. The suction is strong. I pulled more out of the rug than expected. Removing the wand is easy and it's light weight. I like that the attachments stay on the vacuum and are easy to retrieve and install. I LOVE the headlights. I was able to see more crud than I thought I had with the overhead lights on. It's easy to push and control. Easy to remove the bin. Easy to assemble. LOVE the rewind function. Dealing with the cord was a reason why I didn't want to deal with the vacuum before. I think I'll be vacuuming more.

bwalker: Important notes: I have not had this vacuum for long at all and have only used it a handful of times, so I cannot speak to its lasting power or it’s quality over time. I do not have any stairs, so I cannot attest to its stair cleaning ability. I am also a vacuum newbie, and don’t have a ton of vacuum experience to compare this to. However, I do have a deep love for vacuuming and will try as be as unbiased and honest as possible

My review is five stars, when taking into account the price and promises of this vacuum. I’m sure there are vacuums that work a thousand times better than this, but for the price you are getting a quality vacuum. I wouldn’t say this vacuum is worth $500, but it is worth the <$200 I payed for it.

Pros:
- vacuum is easy to assemble and easy to take apart, with clearly labeled latches for all the features that can be detached and turned on/off
- i find the whole thing very customizable and modular, but still easy to understand
- the attachments are well designed, with the brush attaching to the tube attachment, and they store nicely on the main body
- i wasn’t totally sold on the lift off feature, but i think it’s...

carrie: This review is based on the 1/2 hour usage test. You might find that odd but here's why. After a lot of research that included reviews, professional testing articles and Youtube videos I bought a SHARK Navigator. More expensive than the Bissell but widely reviewed & liked. It lasted less than 1/2 hour. I have both hardwood & carpet. The carpets are new, mostly wool low pile and throw off a good deal of fluff. I wouldn't buy them again but that's another story. I need a vacuum for them and for the rest of it. I took the SHARK out of the box and started in on the new rug. The brush immediately froze. Completely stuck on the rug fluff. I tried to trouble shoot but nope. I put it back in the box & it was returned within 24 hours. I started the quest for a decent vacuum all over. I have used an ORECK upright for 25 years. It was a work horse but needed service periodically and used bags which were a mess. After more research I bought the BISSELL. It was a bit less expensive than the ShARK but what sold me was a Youtube video. Not the kind of video with a talking head person lightly pushing a vacuum back and forth thru a clean house and talking about suction. Yes that is...

Chilionastick: First off, this vacuum is probably one of the best vacuums I’ve owned in the sense that it does a great job picking up. We have 2 German Shepherds and when they shed, they SHED and this vacuum makes very short work of all the fur that’s left behind.

The reason I do NOT recommend it: The unfortunate part and the reason I’m returning it is after only a week and a half of using it I’ve had to untangle it twice, the first time was with the pet tool and the second was with the main beater bar assembly which was so bad that it stopped, began smelling and when I disassembled it to remove the tangle I found that part of the beater bar assembly had melted.

The vacuum itself is great, does a great job but there is a design flaw and hopefully Bissell can get this rectified because it definitely has potential of being fantastic!

Customer: Quite impressive. I have 3 different vacuums ( one for each floor) which were quite expensive. This is my preference and works the best. I didn’t think the light would matter and by golly. It hits the places I missed by my previous vacuum and I thought I was being thorough.

Daniel Lacroix: I'm not someone who usually likes to write about anything and therfore writing a review is not my top list of priorities
However I felt I had to take a few minutes to share my experience with the Bissell 2998 Vacuum

I absolutely love this vacuum. I'm a long time loyal fan and customer of Bissell
This new vacuum that I recently purchased with Amazon is amazing. First a huge thank you to Amazon for making the purchase affordable for customers with their payment plan

This vacuum has above all superior suction power. It is not as noisy as my previous vacuums. It maneuvers quite well. Numerous options for the maneuvering.
It's pretty much a lightweight vacuum.
What I want to point out is that there's LED Lights built in the vacuum at the front
I have a degenerative eye condition and I have to say this feature is very important for me and I am very happy with Bissell for having this feature
I am totally satisfied with my purchase

Leah: Amazing suction power. Have been using dyson big ball for the last 3 years, and this vacuum literally changed the shade of my carpet. As inconvenient as any stand up vacuum on the stairs but worth it for the suction.
