My wife and I live alone in a fully carpeted apartment with 5 cats. For years we have relied on a 40+ year old Electrolux tank vacuum, and it has performed marvelously. This weekend it finally failed...the piece of plastic on the main tube which forms the handle cracked in two. I shopped around the web for a good portion of a Saturday, and found this Bissel. It comes highly recommended from other reviewers, and I am writing this to say, believe what you read! This pulled enough hair off a 6x12 area rug in one pass to fill the container! Best part, I had just vacuumed yesterday! The suction powered brushing head works extremely well on the couch, yet its gentle enough that I can put it against my bare skin(wont damage the fabric over time) My carpets look noticeably cleaner. For an extra $20 I put the best buy "4 year plan" on it, so all in all I think it's a great buy for the money. I'm still going to keep my Electrolux and just rig it, as this Bissel does not have a crevice tool, which is essential if you want to clean a car...but overall, this is a great machine!
What's great about it: Really does pull up pet hair, tools work well
What's not so great: Suction seems slightly weak, but it does the job..no crevice tool
