BISSELL® CrossWave® HydroSteam™  Wet Dry Vac, Multi-Purpose Vacuum, Wash, and Steam, Sanitize Formula Included, 35151

I have the crosswave cordless max, but my husband just purchased this crosswave hydrosteam for me (at my request) for my birthday. The hydrosteam actually CLEANS to my standards! I used my old crosswave to clean the floors in our downstairs family room area. Our dogs also go in and out there, so needless to say, its high traffic! After using the cordless max on the floors, I thought they were clean. However, it wasnt until I went over the floors again (immediately after the cordless max) with the hydrosteam that I realized my floors were not as clean as I thought they were. The amount of dirt that the hydrosteam feature was able to get off the floor was incredible! The only downside is that the machine is a little heavy for stair use. Its a great workout though! Maybe on the upgraded model they can have a detachable stair feature as well! All in all, I love this machine and use it every day!

Got to use this as soon as it arrived. After assembling the different pieces and reading the directions (yes, I am one of those who really does read the directions) I successfully washed my tile floor. My tile flow has a pattern with lots of nooks and crannies. Using the CrossWave slowly over the tile, it actually cleaned up the dirt that was ground into the grooves. No more do I need to get on my knees and handwash the floor or use a broom scrubber to get at that dirt. The steam feature is a bonus and really does a nice job of releasing stuck on dirt (or dropped paint) off of the tile.

This came just in time for potty training messes. I don’t know how we survived without it before.

Pros: steam works great, suction on smooth tile and textured left almost no water in first wipe. Self cleaning on its own dock, cleaned entire base and roller impressively! Cons: it is loud and heavy piece of equipment. Dirty water tank is a third the size of the clean water. Stopping to dump tank, is irritating. Overall, I really like the Bissell! Its a steam mop, light duty vacuum, and a scrubber all in one! Its understandable its heavy.. but way heavier than I expected.

If your floor is dirty because the idea of breaking out the mop is a back breaking job then your not alone. I know myself I personally slack cleaning floors just because it can be a back breaker. I knew I needed a powered wet mop for a long time, and so enters the BISSELL. Out of the box it was a snap to get it going, of course I saw a few YouTube’s and read the instruction from cover to cover cause I’m a instructions nerd. I was ready to test this flag ship. It claims to clean, add steam for that hard to clean spots that you have to mop over like 1000 times until it is clean. So I assembled, read (as noted), and had the whole house at my disposal. I tested on hardwood, ceramic, porcelain, and laminate. I filled the water canister with required water and chemicals (included), and off I went. To be fair the pictures I included was one of 2 times I emptied the waste water. On all the wood I used the floor mode, using 50% trigger squeeze (drops water/chemicals to roller), and it cleanup up nice. I did not need to keep the trigger down all the time as that would release too much water. I did see a few tough spots, so I changed the mode to STEAM, and did a few passes on that mode and it did come clean. On the porcelain, and laminate, I kept the steamer mode on just to see the results. All in all it picked up all the dirt, cleaned the surface, and dried fast and did not leave film. So far all went well, I used the self clean mode, took apart the pieces, cleaned them out and left out to dry. So what is the bad? The water/chemical did go fairly quick and me only using 50% trigger pulls. Dont get me wrong, it went fine, I could see how I will need to buy the cleaning chemicals more often, and that is fine. When its time to clean, just do it right. Next issue is grout. No you do not need to worry about your grout because it will not touch it. Meaning it is a SURFACE cleaner, not a deep cleaner. My grout had dirt pieces in there after I was done because the roller does not get to it. So my suggestion is, vacuum before you wet mop to clean out the grout, and add to your calendar another day to get on your knees to clean that out. Would I recommend, oh yes, having this I will clean the floors more often, as it did a good job.

What i like it did arrive but late a few days and there was only on multi brush the picture shows one in the machine and extra one with the extra filter thts how my other bristol came.

I really wanted to like this. When it worked for the first few seconds of it working, it worked great. I purchased the first one and had an issue with the vacuum disengaging where it would no longer suck up the water from the floor. So I returned it and tried a second one. The exact same thing happened to the second one. I will not be ordering another one and would not recommend this product.

We love our new BISSELL HydroSteam! Such a versatile machine. Great for everything.. especially our hardwood floors throughout the house. The wet vac also made it easy to clean the bathroom tile floors. Just a couple carpets in our place and it did an amazing job cleaning quickly without pretreatment. The steam and wash features make cleaning up pet messes easy. The vacuum had great suction throughout the whole process. It comes with a sample bottle of multi-floor cleaner and two other sample cleaners - one for the vacuum and one for hardwood floors. It is easy to set up and break down. Highly recommended for people with pets or kids or any other humans.

This model is better than the cordless one. Super easy to use and I love that I can get all my floors done in half the time.

I have had three of these types of wet/dry vacs through years, this one is the best by far. The suction, steam and cleaning power is great. I generally stick with Bissell has I have had nothing but good experiences so far with their products. My husband actually uses it daily, as we have all tile in our home and he loves how quickly it dries and good it cleans.
