House Cleaning Product Review: Bissell PowerForce Bagless Vacuum

I have the worst luck when it comes to vacuum cleaners. If anyone could blow up, burn up, or just completely wreck a vacuum cleaner it would be me. In the past few years I have purchased several vacuum cleaners and all have met the same fate. I wish I could say it was just one brand or one model of vacuum that I have back luck with but I have tried several. Recently I decided to bite the bullet and buy another one, out of necessity more than anything. My choice this time was the Bissell PowerForce Bagless Vacuum.

Product Specifications:
This vacuum is bagless so there is no need to purchase additional bags in the future. You don’t have to worry about making a mess emptying bags. With flip of a single lever on the front of the vacuum the container holding the dirt can be removed and dumped. This vacuum also has a 12 amp motor which picks up virtually anything on your carpet. With a five height option you can use this vacuum on all piles of carpet and even hard surfaces like tile and hardwood. With onboard tools included you can reach those hard to reach places with the extension wand, crevice tool, and upholstery brush.

Ease of Use:
Using the PowerForce Bagless Vacuum is very easy. It comes packaged in two parts and you will need a screwdriver to tighten the two screws that hold the handle onto the main assembly. This vacuum does not weigh a lot and is easy to carry up and down stairs. The attachments are easy to access from their onboard storage and the suction power is strong enough to remove dog hair from the carpet without any trouble.

Best Features:
One of the best features on this vacuum is the easy clean filter system. Just remove the compartment where the dirt is kept and the bottom unscrews. In the bottom part of this you find the filter system. Simply take the filter system apart and run it under the faucet. As soon as the filters dry you can start vacuuming again

Things I Wish Were Included:
For the most part this vacuum has all the tools I need however it would be nice if the hose extender were a little bit longer. I would also be nice if the corners of the vacuum had guards to keep you from banging into the legs of your furniture.

Price and Availability:
This vacuum can be found in most retailers including Wal-Mart and retails for less than $100. I found mine on sale and paid less than S60 for it.

If you are looking for an inexpensive vacuum with a lot of suction power you should look into this one.
