BISSELL CleanView Compact Upright Vacuum, Fits In Dorm Rooms & Apartments, Lightweight with Powerful Suction and Removable Extension Wand, 3508, Red,black

Really my only gripe is the stiff power cord and maybe the narrow mouth. Otherwise, it works fine and was a great deal(especially after shopping all the local big box stores for a similar product). Love the easy emptying dust bin. Seems to work as good as my Hoover that was 3 times the price!

Great for summer camp!

It vacuums even better than the description

Ill do my best to provide what would be relevant for others. I bought this vacuum cleaner after needing an upgrade after 17 years (my old vacuum still works but just a stick vacuum w/ no attachments). I replaced this after 5 days with a better unit. 1. The best thing I can say about this vacuum cleaner is that the suction is quite powerful, at least when new, but I wasnt willing to take a chance because even though Im not a product engineer, my career is in product development and Ive developed products with motors. The motor in this vacuum is simply too loud. NOT too loud in terms of me being annoyed. Too loud in terms of you can simply tell its a cheap quality motor and working harder than it should. Maybe theres a reason why some reviews say their unit stopped working after only 1-2 months. 2. BUT, speaking of its powerful suction, its inappropriate in how it operates. I vacuumed my living room area rug and OK, I assumed it cleaned it well since a lot of dirt was collected. But most of it was fuzz. I vacuumed over my rug again and the same amount of fuzz. This thing was RIPPING my rug up, literally. Another sign of a cheap/bad motor. Far too aggressive and unregulated. 3. The two attachments (crevice and brush tool) themselves are fine but the hose is without exaggeration the worst Ive experienced. The hose is incredibly short and a thin diameter. Theres no way to use this hose, even when you add the wand attachment to it (which is actually the handle that you remove) for this vacuum to NOT tip over. I started simply holding it in the air with one hand. Thats the only way. 4. This product is far too light and incredibly flimsy. The plastic wheels literally wobble, and theres nothing for me to further tighten. Poorly made. And while it seems many of these vacuums (from various brands) are the same overall design, the handle (which converts to a wand) has an incredibly flimsy connection to the body of the vacuum. Its simply a sad state. 5. I love consumer products and as said, Im in product development, but I find this product to actually be INSULTING. Yes, insulting. Im still single and dont need the most heavy duty vacuum, but I dont think this is even for college students/dorm rooms. I really dont. The reason I find this insulting is that it genuinely feels one level higher than a small childs pretend vacuum cleaner. Its a TOY vacuum with a REAL motor. This is insulting even for vacuuming a 15 year old teenagers room who still lives at home. Should never have made it to market. Im surprised Bissel would put this out there at retail. One thing I saved for last since its more of a personal issue. I like dogs but the fascination with dogs in this country is really unhealthy at this point. *Ive NEVER seen a box for a product like this that doesnt even have a picture of the product. All 4 sides have pictures of dogs with so many statements that Bissel donates some proceeds of each unit to dogs. This is going too far and unhealthy, and exploitation of a trend. This isnt even a vacuum cleaner for pets (not like it would make it OK but at least it would be a bit more understandable. I was going to upgrade to the next level Bissel which may be a good vacuum but because of the thing with pets, I went with a Eureka. The Eureka came without silly proclamations of pet donations. It had proclamations as it should - as a vacuum. And a much better product.

I ordered the compact version for upstairs so I could leave it. Not that carrying it up and down would be a problem. It is very light, but doesnt lack power. I can carry it with 2 fingers so its very easy to move. Dont let its size fool you....it can pull so much out of your carpet down to the finest dust and pet hair. I read reviews with people complaining about how small it is....it plainly states compact in the description so yes, its a little on the small side. But thats exactly what I wanted. My only con is the handle feels a bit flimsy and the tube that you connect for the tools is a bit on the short side. I didnt plan to use the tools much so not an issue for me. Its not very wide (hence the description of compact) so cleaning a larger area might take a bit longer. But the cleaning power of this unit makes up for its small design. In truth, it pulled up more dirt than my 9 year old dyson so Im very happy. Hopefully it lasts a while, but it doesnt cost a lot so if I get a few years out of it with gentle use Ill be happy.

I cannot honestly answer this because I sent it to my son as a gift. He did say he likes it if that helps

Use for my area rug and hardwood floors. Great pick up

Very pleased with my purchase. I needed a vacuum for a few area rugs and this does the job well. Good suction, not too noisy. The container for lint is easy to use, although one part does require some interaction w/lint as opposed to just holding upside down over garbage...its not a deal breaker at all. I just put on rubber gloves. Think you, too, will be happy with the purchase

As someone who was looking for a vacuum cleaner for their apartment, I tried the BISSELL CleanView Compact Upright Vacuum and found it to be a decent option. On the positive side, the vacuum is lightweight and easy to maneuver, making it simple to clean even tight spaces and corners. It also has a relatively powerful suction, allowing it to pick up dirt, dust, and debris from both carpets and hard floors. However, I did find that the vacuum had some drawbacks. For one, the dustbin is relatively small and needs to be emptied frequently, which can be a hassle. Additionally, I found that the vacuum can be quite loud when in use, which might be a problem for some people. Overall, I think that the BISSELL CleanView Compact Upright Vacuum is a decent option for those in need of a vacuum cleaner for their apartment. While it has some limitations, it is relatively affordable and effective at picking up dirt and debris. That being said, if you have a larger space to clean or are looking for a more powerful or quiet option, you might want to consider other models.

I am very impressed at the suction power of this little upright vacuum. If you have Rabbits I highly recommend this. So far it is during GREAT.
