Bissell Cleanview Deluxe Corded Handheld Vacuum, 47R51

Ok for stairs as it’s lightweight and the adapter gives you the option to do both the stair and the riser without having to flip the device making it easier on your wrists. However there is a MAJOR design flaw with the exhaust system. If you try to use it for anything like a dust mess from drilling holes to hang something, the exhaust blows the dust around before it can pick up the mess. It made a simple cleanup a much bigger mess.

It actually works, has a long cord to get upstairs. Cleans the corners and is lightweight.

Product arrived this morning. We needed something for doing our carpeted stairs as oposed to lugging the upright beater Hoover over them. We thought this might be the ticket? It was and is! Just a great little easy to handle and powerful vaccum. Found it works best on the carpeted steps using the hose and the flat suction nozzle. We have a little dog. It picked his shed fur also, Very pleased!

Having the right tool for the job makes all difference! I just received this vacuum today. I bought it for the specific purpose of vacuuming my stairs, which has always been a frustrating task for me. I have tried various vacuum cleaners. The large ones are cumbersome on the stairs and often the attachments are not powerful enough to get everything up, especially in the crevices. The handheld ones I have tried have not had adequate suction to really get up all the debris. This little vacuum, however, did a fabulous job. I used the regular surface head first, and then the crevice tool for the crevices. It was easy to switch back and forth between the two as I worked. When I dug my fingers into the crevice at the stairs I did NOT pull out a bunch of debris because the vacuum got it all. Then I went back over with the pet hair brush and it really fluffed up the carpet so it looked refreshed. It was not a necessary step for cleanliness as the first two attachments took care of getting all the hair and debris, but it really made it look nicer. Took me fifteen minutes to do a whole flight of stairs this way. The longer cord is most definitely a plus for this task also. I am so glad I purchased this vacuum. I feel like keeping my two flights of stairs clean, with two kids and two cats in the house, is going to be much easier for me from now on. It is a fantastic tool at an extremely affordable price! Highly recommend to anyone who has carpeted stairs!

I have a long haired cat that kitty litter gets stuck in the fur on her feet and she tracks it out all over the carpet. This works GREAT for vacuuming that litter up. Not so great for hair, but I have another one for that .....I do like this and bought another one

This is a really good buy for a small hand held vacuum. I dont know if you are like me and read the negative reviews or more critical ones first on Amazon before you buy a product. I read the negative ones first and took them in consideration before buying this vacuum but it wasnt enough to justify not getting it. Some just seemed a little too nitpicking to me. I have a toddler and a wife with lots of hair. So the day can be quite challenging in keeping up with souvenirs left behind by either of them. One of the complaints I saw when I was doing my homework was the vacuum made hair swirl or crumbs scatter across a floor when youre try vacuuming it. OK. This is a half truth. It will do that because the side vent are exhausting a lot of air because the vacuum is pretty powerful. You can still vacuum hair without that happening after you learn how to use the vacuum correctly. I dont have a problem and its something with practice and getting the feel of the vacuum is what its all about. The suction is amazing. It gets every crumb my son can manufacture with his little hands. Some days its like an old fashion western showdown between two gunslingers facing off in the middle of town. I actually dont mind when he stares at me and deliberately crumbles a Ritz cracker or Chex cereal in my face. I now have a vacuum that can cover quite a bit and hold a lot in the canister. I use the wide mouth attachment mostly and it works really good for getting under tight areas. Im not sure how long it goes for it to automatically shut off and cool down like most hand vacuums do because I use it primarily for messes around the kitchen, bathroom, and couches wherever the baby is snacking. I really love this vacuum and it is truly a good buy. ddd

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.

Goodness, I purchased this for one reason and one reason alone; to hope beyond hope that I might be able to have a sofa that doesnt look like yeti. The rubberized end and suction makes it very easy to quickly and easily remove the inches of cat from my sofa each week. I can see where some reviewers were having problems with the vents, they do get quite warm. Additionally the tank is just a little small for my taste, and can get stringy items easily caught in it. But where-in I need it to remove cat hair from the sofa, it is a solid five stars.

I needed to replace my handheld vacuum. I was open to buying either a cordless one or one with a cord. I didnt have a strong preference, either way. I luv that it has a long cord (18 foot) & a HEPA filter. The suction is ok & its easy to empty.

Cleans amazingly well for a small vac. Needed something for the pet hair in our cars. This does the trick and quickly!
