BISSELL AeroSlim Lithium Ion Cordless Handheld Vacuum, 29869, Black

I NEVER write a review good or bad and I always research my purchase before following through with it. I felt compelled to share my experience. I read almost ever negative comment and I must say that my experience is the total opposite of what people are saying negatively about this little machine. I have a pickup truck and we live at the beach. My truck always has sand and dirt in it. I purchased the vacuum to help with getting some of the mess off of the rubber mats. The machine has worked above and beyond my expectations every time I use it. It clears the sand, picks up the dirt and dust without a problem. The battery lasts a long time for me. It’s easy to clean. It charges without a problem. I see no issue with the base and the charge going directly to the unit. It is sturdy and on top of it all, my wife likes it for the indoor stuff like picking up dirt after a dog knocks over one of her plants or vacuuming flour off of the kitchen floor. I really like this vacuum and would recommend it for what it is designed to do.

Nice little hand held vacuum. I use each morning to get loose dog hair off treadmill. This has a SMALL reservoir. Look at the measurements. Good vacuum but you definitely need a consider what you intend to use it for.

I love everything about it, just like a normal Bissell but small and compact. I would think battery life would be excellent considering how beefy it is circumference wise, but no. After using for 30 minutes it goes down to the 2nd dot. Not too sure how long it would last normally but I assume an hour and a half given this outcome. Very good but I dont like having to charge often. However if youre okay with that small thing then go for it. Doesnt hold a whole lot of debris but it sure is easy to clean.

This thing is a crumb vacuum. No more, no less. If I were trying to use it for a heavier-duty application, or had different expectations, I might not like it as much. Heres why I gave it five stars: 1. It holds crumbs. Ive had far more expensive, name brand floor vacuums that couldnt keep their contents INSIDE the vacuum. This has a little flapper door that works very well so far. 2. It does a good job with crumbs, dust, and minor dirt. It has plenty of suction for desk and light car vacuuming, and I find it pretty handy to have around. You might pick up a few cheerios, but its not going to suck dirt out of a floor mat like a proper shop vac. Use this to maintain, not to clean up when things get bad. 3. It has a good filter. This has a modern dual layer filtration system with an outer dust screen, and an inner fine paper filter. It captures fine dust quite well. 4. Its easy to clean out. Just pop off the dust bin, pull both filters out, wash the screen, and tap off the paper filter vigorously. Ill need to replace the paper filter at some point like any vacuum, but it comes with an extra, so no big deal. The battery life is fine, but nothing to write home about. If youre using it daily, youll want to keep a micro-USB charger handy every few days. I dont use it super heavily, so Im not best positioned to talk about battery life. It could be sleeker, but this is about as good as it gets for a useful vacuum. If you need something heavy duty for big car messes or serious dirt, you should probably just get a portable shop vac, like a Milwaukee unit. If you want a crumb vacuum for small messes to keep things tidy, this is your vac.

A friend bought for her dog’s shedding hair…said she LOVED IT. I played w/it—-seemed great. Purchased one 4 me & has great suction! It can lift up in the area you place the nozzle on a small rug…all without getting out the tank, stick or upright vacuum. It is like an arm extender into my garden window behind kitchen sink (4’ reach) to suck up dead leaves. Little kitchen spills or a few crumbs w/o getting broom-dustpan or stick vacuum! Haven’t used in car, but it even sucks up my long hair strands (single strands). No doubts will be good….has even sucked up about a 5mm metal bead! I have it right by my tv chair, where I can plug in. Only negative is it doesn’t suck quite as good when cup gets a little fuller. But what vacuum does? And also the charge does pretty well - but considering how well for cost - it is saving me a lot of time and quick surface cleaning as you go. A dropped chip…I picked up a business card with it. I believe it can be safely used on my computer keyboard though I have not tried it yet. Was surprised at volume of lightweight dead orchid flowers sucked up. Cup is 1” deep and 2” across. I use a stippling brush to clean the sides. I guess purchasing 5 for gifts and my own test one says a lot. Also, planning on getting one for my kitchen and studio.

This product was great for my main purpose - vaccum car quickly, without setting up a bulky vaccum. Other options were a bit expensive so decided to try this one after reading reviews and purchased a pre-owned one. Works great for small and quick jobs!

Update 03Nov22 - lowered rating and sending it back. Even after running it down completely and charging it back up again, the battery indicator still only read a 60% charge #fail. I also realized that I spent $40 on this thing when I thought I spent $25 and that was just insulting. Weak suction, AND poor battery??? NOPE. Its going back. Lowering rating to 2 stars. Bissell, this one was a miss. ------------ Entirely underwhelming, but exactly what I needed. It was all-too-soon that I realized that the suction power on this little device, even on a full charge, is far below whatever expectations that I had coing into this purchase based on its aesthetic and the brand it carries (Ive also got a Bissel CleanSlate that I love). If you temper your expectations and consider price-point as well as accessibility/convenience, it DOES suit its purpose just fine. I bought it for the purpose of dusting off my computer desk and other reachable horizontal surfaces in my office, which it manages well. It is also considered that, a stronger motor would also mean more noise, and if used in an office environment, that just wouldnt fly with fellow employees. Is it wall mountable? No. but yes. Technically. It wasnt designed with that storage adaptability in mind; I just drilled a hole into the bottom then fastened it to my wall with a tapered screw. Presto ; ) How long does the battery last? By my estimation, about 22-25 min on full charge with no shutoffs How long to recharge the battery? dont know yet, Ive only charged it fully once and thats when I went to bed. May update later with this info. What dont I like about it? The exhaust vent is directly below the intake port. So, if you dont use the attachments, itll actually blow away whatever youre trying to clean. Also the attachment is REALLY flimsy. If youre not careful, you will literally take the brush portion rrrrrright off (see image). This isnt a deal breaker for me but----something to be aware of (again. think price point). The stand it comes with is more akin to a intake cover than a stand, even though it has a flat surface. The issue here is that the fit is designed to be so snug that youll have to apply actual force to separate the two manually which detracts from the overall ease of use/access functionality that this is intended to serve. This was tedious to me, hence why I mounted it to the wall (and close to an outlet for recharging). No I can just grab and go as needed. Is it a buy? Sure, all things considered (Again-----think PRICE POINT. That and same-day delivery). So as long as it keeps holding a charge and doesnt stop (start) sucking, Im happy with it..

I have only had this for about 3 days, but I have used it daily! Its footprint is so small it can be stored anywhere without taking up a ton of space like a regular Dustbuster type hand vacuum, and I love that it charges by USB. I know this is marketed as a car vac, which I did use it in my car and it was fine (probably not if you had a huge vacuuming job though) but for me it has come in handy with cleaning up crumbs/debris on counters/floors, I have used it on my (non-carpeted) stairs to get rid of dust and hair, as well as on the bathroom floors to clean up hair. I have a small powder room bathroom that is difficult to navigate my stick vacuum in, and this thing was PERFECT! Also made cleaning base boards super easy, just popped the brush tool up and was able to clean them all in minutes. Oh, and the tools are easily stored right on the base so I am not searching for them throughout the house. I love that! My only complaint, if I had to find one, is that I keep fat fingering the power button, so if I am cleaning and change the position of the vacuum I may bump it off, or when I am emptying the canister I may turn it on. But its not a big deal at all, in my opinion. So far, suction works well, power seems to last a while, and its easy to empty. I actually saw 1 of these on a popular home shopping TV channel (not a Bissell brand) and was going to purchase, but the reviews werent so great. So, naturally I took to Amazon and found this, with great reviews - did not disappoint! If anything changes I will update my review, but so far, after 3 days - Great Life Choice!

This was great while it lasted. I used it for small/dry messes in our minivan (we have three young kids). The battery doesnt last very long so I tried to remember to charge it often. The suction is fine for some messes but not for special/deep cleaning. Now after 6-8 months, the attachment no longer stays in place.

Not strong suction but good for cleaning up little messes
