Bissell Cleanview Deluxe Corded Handheld Vacuum, 47R51

I bought this little sucker based on the other reviews. I actually started out looking at the one without the additional attachments. This one is the same model, just a different color, and for the small amount of money required for the attachments, it was a no brainer. Heres the background: a) I have light colored carpeting throughout my house, and b) I have a black dog who sheds like crazy. I pick up a lot of black hair from my carpets with my regular vacuum cleaner, but have always hated doing the stairway. Lets face it, none of those stair tools ever manage to get all of the hair off of the steps, which makes my stairs look forever hairy. This is the exception! I love the flexible nozzle - you can bend it to fit the front of the stair and into the crevices, and after a few minutes that stair looks pristine! Lets face it, its not a miracle worker, and it is going to take a minute or two per stair, so that adds up. But thats no more time than those stair tools take, and even then you cant get all of the hair up. I bought the product mainly for my stairs, but it appears to work wonders on furniture as well. The additional tools come in handy for that, too. If you have one area where something dry spilled, this would be a good option to pick it up instead of dragging out the big vacuum. All in all, I could not be more pleased! Thank you Bissell, for letting my stairs look amazing again!

This vacuum was so much fun its ridiculous. PROS: -Very powerful for its size. More suction than even many larger vacuum cleaners. -Extremely easy to use: --Ergonomic and lightweight. On/Off button can be reached by the thumb, one handed. --Rubber tip can safely and efficiently clean cloth and the like. --Plastic hose rotates at BOTH ends, so its rarely awkward. --Attachments are quick and easy to swap. A long one, a wider flat one, and a rubber one. -Cord is a decent length and comes with an attached velcro wrap which is very, very useful. -Emptying is a cinch: --Compartment is clear, so you can tell when its time to empty. --Filter is REUSABLE and easy to clean (as far as reusable filters are concerned, anyways.) --Easy to pop off, dump, pop on again. -The entire thing is accessible, so if anything gets clogged it can be fixed lickety-split. -Remarkably inexpensive. -Yellow-orange is cool. Gives it an industrial edge. CONS: -The cord, wrapped up, is about the same weight as the vacuum. Its a little awkward hanging off the side, but its an understandable sacrifice to save the simple and small design of the rest of the cleaner. -Exhaust blows forwards from both sides, which can kick up dust a little; especially if youre cleaning a dry spill. This isnt much of an issue if you use the hose, though. -Gets kinda warm after a few minutes of use. Doesnt ever seem to get really hot, though. Cools off fast too. -Not exactly easy to store, what with its separate attachments and all. Another sacrifice for its simple design. -Doesnt have a light. Fortunately for me, I had a tiny flashlight with a stretchy strap to attach to my finger or the tip of the nozzle. My genius upgrade. Other cons come from it just being a vacuum cleaner. Such as: -Its noisy. Not deafening, though. -Cleaning the filter gets dust everywhere. Do it outside. *cough, cough* -It gets dirty easy, and visibly. So clean it with a little water and a rag, if its even worth bothering. And its small, so its limited in other obvious ways: -It fills up fast, making it ever the more wonderful how easy it is to empty. -It cant do large areas like carpet or big rugs. -It doesnt come with a long tube or brush attachment. -You cant use it standing up. SYNOPSIS: This vacuum is a JOY. Its easy to use, lightning fast and powerful. YOUR STAIRS WILL BE CLEAN. And your corners will be dustless. I loved running around the house hitting all the dust-bunny hot spots; bang, bang, bang. Done. Clean. No questions asked. I leave all the big stuff to my Filter Queen, but with this Cleanview Ill never cut corners again!

I got this specifically for vacuuming around my cats litter box. It does a great job and the hose is long enough to reach all around it without moving anything. The HEPA filter prevents any litter dust from getting pumped into the air by the vacuum and its small and portable enough I can dedicate it to the task and keep my normal vacuum cleaner.

Works well. Sturdy. But the side blower blows away hair - especially on steps.

I like the size and the suction for dog hair. The carpet attachment is good. I also like the long electric cord. You really need the separate side air deflectors. The other attachments are good. The only negative is when you push on the side deflectors, it makes it impossible to store the unit and attachments in the box and Im afraid of losing some attachments. I now need to buy some type of container to store everything. It would be better if the deflectors were included with the vacuum.

I had low expectations. Its not expensive. The cord is very long. I have a Dyson so getting this I thought was overkill but the extension does reach areas I couldnt get to with the Dyson. Ive had to give myself a haircut because of Covid and this thing cleans up all the hair. Its also more convenient to use in some hard to reach places than my Dyson. Its worth every cent Update- The nozzle that connects attachments to the vacuum has fallen off twice so far. Its a design flaw. I dont see a workaround. So reducing my 5 star review to a 2 star review. I would not have bought it if I knew this would happen. Maybe Ill return it. I dont have the box anymore so it will be a hassle. Update again- Ive been using this for a year and its awesome. Sometimes the nozzle pops off but it takes a second to put it back on. It gets all the hair off the floor. Love this thing

This is a very good vacume . Just what I wanted. My only complaint with it. Is the way it was sent . There was no mailing box with a shipping lable and no way to return it due to a lack of address information or return shipping . So if I had to return it, I wouldnt know where to send it and I would have to pay the postage and a box to return it in. That was a little disappointing to me. The box wasnt even taped shut ! Other wise it is a good product and would recommend it to others. Sincerely Mrs. Mary Villemure

This plug is hand vacuum is so much more powerful than any cordless hand vacuum I have ever owned. It is light weight. The electric cord is very long which is another excellent feature. I will not buy a cordless vacuum again.

I bought this to use indoors and also to clean my car. I wanted a corded vacuum for maximum power and also to be able to use in my house. The car vacuums plug into the car and I wouldnt be able to use inside my house. Ive had rechargable vacuums and found them clunky, had little suction and usually died in about a year. This Bissell is perfect for me. The main portion of the vacuum sits on the seat of the car and I use the hose and attachment to clean my car. Other vacuums make you hold the whole thing in your hand and some are quite heavy and akward to use. This lttle gem has tons of suction and the attachments allow me to get hard to reach knooks and crannies where M&Ms and coins like to hide. Inside the house, its always ready to clean up spilled plants and coffee grounds, no need to wait for the battery to charge up. Long gone are the days of shoving dirt and crumbs in front of the vacuum hoping it sucks up this time. The long cord allows me to clean all my stairs or my car without an extension cord. I didnt have any problem emptying the dirt and reassemblying it. I would buy it again.

Love this little light weight vacuum for the car and RV. Lots of suction for every day cleaning. Nice long cord. My only gripe was there was no brush attachment which I needed for the car. The hose coupling is a non standard size. So I ended up buying a generic three brush set on Amazon which was close in size for attachment to the hose end. A couple of minutes with a heat gun to soften the hose end and I was able to insert the brush into the hose while still maintaining compatibility with the original tools. Problem solved.
