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

Excellent

I use it on a low pile carpet, and it suctioned up all the dirt. Because it is small, the tank needs to be cleaned after each use.

Quite the loud vacuum, but for $60 I assume this might be the best you can get. Looks like a flimsy toy, but its very powerful. All in all, its decent enough and im keeping it.

This one is great! Has great suction, small, maneuverable, light weight. Good value for the money. My only observation is that the collection tank fills up quickly. However, for day to day touch-up cleaning, this one is very good.

Very fast straightforward assembly out of the box. Unexpectedly but delightfully lightweight vacuum. Very loud of course, for a vacuum but seems to have strong suction power. Picked up a lot of pet hair real good for me. Of course, long term performance will in large part depend on how well you maintain it. I got this for my Dad and I doubt he would know what to do but with me, I clean them after each use and will clean the filters regularly and inspect the hose for clogs regularly, so that would surely affect performance. I did not like the way the dust canister simply rests against the intake opening, it didnt really snap into it, or fit into it. Didnt seem to affect performance or leak dust, I just didnt like it and suspect it could be problematic if the canister ever doesnt fit snugly in the future. Some have complained about hose length, the best way to use the hose is to detach the handle as that is the extension for length, but you have to be aware of where the vacuum is sitting, I dont think the brush roll stops when upright, or can be stopped when running. An issue Ive had with every vacuum Ive handled thus far, the cord wrap never seems to be fully accommodating for the length of cord you have to wrap around it. Its not very long but neither are the ends you wrap the cord over, deep enough so you have lots of cord wrapping around pegs that arent deep enough to make the cord fit without wanting to overhang or slip off. Cons aside, for the price point I am happy with this. I wanted lightweight, strong suction and long cord. Easy to empty and maintain.

Just tried it out, small compact but I need that with my back issues. The suction power is better then my large vacuum. In fact becareful how close you get to stuff, It got my string of lights and it sucked part of it up and cut it off string. Thankfully they still light up.

I have to say…. I’m impressed with this little v sweeper! And the power it puts out is super surprising!

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.

You get what you pay for lol, but its not bad for a small area. Works reasonably well. I had a studio apartment, and it did just fine on hardwood or on rugs/carpet.

I just moved into an apartment with brand new carpet. I have two cats and a 6 year old. Weve been here for only 10 days. Ive been vacuuming every other day...only my small bedroom and the small livingroom. This little vacuum always picks up a LOT!!! It is the perfect size for my small two bedroom apartment. The only thing I dont know is how long this little guy is going to stay so powerful...but setup was as simple as could be and its power is truly impressive, especially for its size. Highly recommend this vacuum. So glad I bought it. The price was fantastic considering how well it works.
