> 3 dayI like the way this vacuum cleans up pet hair easily and thoroughly. It is lightweight, very easy to maneuver and a great cleaner. It will clean a large area rug in our living room that the Dyson could not handle. I like that you can see the canister and that it can be easily emptied. I do not like that you have to take the bottom assembly apart to replace the belt....that part is cumbersome and requires a lot of strength and is, in my opinion, a design flaw in an otherwise very good vacuum.

> 3 dayI had a BISSELL 2254 CleanView Swivel Rewind Pet Upright Bagless Vacuum and guess I got spoiled. I bought this and its ok, but doesnt even compare. I got sucked into the detachable wand. It s neat, but the hose is short which limits your reach. Other than the detachable wand, there really isnt much to say about this item. Its just meh. It will do for now and then Ill spend $20 more and buy another 2254

> 3 dayIve been using mine for a few months. I love the swivel maneuvering, suction, and the way the whole handle detaches to have a long reach to suction the cracks and crevices high/low. The canister is if adequate size and easy to empty. I wish it had lights for better visibility. The attached tool is clever to serve as fine suction and a brush in one, but the brush size is too small for efficient use. The lower cord is a decent length and gets around without having to continually move it. The height levels for carpet are good. I dislike that the main floor vacuum continues as you use the handle for detailed suctioning. If you arent careful, it will eat your carpet while you vacuum the couch (or whatever). You have to hold it tipped slightly to prevent this, all the while using the machines machine. Sound level is good. Its on the heavier side for going up and down stairs.

> 3 dayI have multiple pets and figure that if I get a few years out of a vacuum cleaner and it starts getting inefficient Ill just junk it and buy a new one. This one was replacing another very similar Bissell model that served its time and went into retirement. This one is easy to handle, love the swivel feature and cleans very well. Easy to empty and clean out the chamber and filters. I would love to love it but there seems to be a flaw in the design. After several uses the brush stopped spinning and I could smell rubber burning. I assumed that something had jammed the brush and the drive belt was slipping and that was creating the burning smell. Upon opening the bottom to see what was stopping the brush from spinning I found that the entire channel that housed the rubber belt was solid packed with pet hair. Pulled it all out and freed everything up and the vacuum was operational again but I anticipate having to constantly check that housing to see if its clogged up with pet hair. My previous Bissell, which is designed almost exactly the same as this current on never had this problem. It would seem to me that, since this is being sold as a pet vacuum, it getting clogged up with pet hair to this extreme extent would be kind of impossible. Will contact the manufacturer with the problem to see what they have to say. Disappointed to say the least.
