Bissell CleanView Deluxe Pet Vacuum

Really does pick up everything in one pass. Can't believe what shows up in the dirt cup, even though I recently shampooed the carpet.

Bought this vacuum, oh, years ago. 2012 at least. Been going strong most of that time. First belt replacement this morning, in fact, which I had preemptively bought months ago when I found I could buy them. Went through several cheapie vacuums before settling on something in the middle of the pack, and it makes quite the difference, if you take care of it. The carbon(?) filters are annoying to come by; only available (that I know of) at Bissell's site. Belts are more common, though. This vacuum comes apart easily enough for this kind of maintenance, if you have a screw driver or two, and are fairly handy. Some of the pieces are screwed in, but you don't find this out until you actually need to check the parts. Washable filter is very convenient, HEPA filter at the bottom is easy to replace as well. About to run the vacuum without the top-of-tank black filter; waiting for delivery, but need the vacuum regardless. I've tried washing that black filter, and while it does still fit, the water and any drying tends to crumple it a bit, making it much less effective than simply replacing it. The effort of trying to make it work 'like new' after even a simple rinse and wring-out dry is more than the filter is worth afterwards. Sometimes the 'cyclone' inside gets caught up with larger accumulations of dust, resulting in at least a 50% reduction in power, which is usually corrected by emptying the tank, pulling out any excess dust/dirt, and maybe even thoroughly rinsing the cyclone bit. I've used the 'turbo pet' attachment a few times, and besides the novelty of another brush in the attachment, it's not really that effective, in my limited experience.

I am honestly disgusted at how poor our previous vacuum was working. My son has just started walking and I feel relieved that I know the carpet is actually clean. This vacuum worked so well, the carpet felt like new fluffy carpet. Thank you for an awesome product. I have the bissell little green and am so impressed with that as well!

We have a cat and a dog. This vacuum worked well for about 3-4 weeks and then it lost suction. It blows the air out and runs hot. Don't buy this one. Very very disappointed.

We have a dog and 2 cats and what a big difference. Carpet looks like new. Vacuum is so light weight that it makes it easier to get around as we have 3 levels of carpet to do. Just love it and yes we would buy another as long as we have pets.
