6 Best Bissell Vacuums, Tested & Reviewed

No pet is too fluffy for the Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Plus. Whether you've got a perpetually shedding husky or a short-hair breed, this powerful, feature-packed upright vacuum for pet owners will help keep your floors fur-free.

This corded upright has a tangle-free brush roll and a hair spooling system in the dust cup that makes pet (and human) hair pickup a breeze — and the inevitable cleaning of the vacuum afterward. It comes with three attachments, and two are specifically for tackling more pet hair messes. The sealed filtration system keeps allergens trapped inside the vacuum, which means less sniffling and sneezing. Our experts appreciate that the dust cup can be removed with the push of one button, and Febreze odor technology in the filter prevents pet odors from building in the device. The vacuum also automatically adjusts the height of the brush roll to go from carpets to bare floors and area rugs seamlessly.

It has over 7,200 five-star reviews on Amazon, and when we tested it in our Lab, we found it lived up to the hype. We especially liked how easy the dust cup was to empty and the convenient LED-lit crevice tool that lets you find all that hidden dust.

Well-loved by our experts for its powerful cleaning and budget-friendly price, this cordless stick vacuum was a top performer in our recent test of 21 stick vacuums. While testing it in the Lab, we found that it offers many of the same attributes as some more expensive cordless stick vacs like a long run time, a variety of helpful attachments and variable suction levels. The tangle-free brush roll helps prevent hair from wrapping around it while cleaning, and the full-width suction means you'll have an easier time getting tight corners clean. We also appreciate that it includes a crevice and dusting brush tool so you can remove dirt from even the smallest spaces.

While heavier than some other stick vacuums, it still weighs in at less than 8 pounds so it isn't too difficult to maneuver around your house. Plus, if you need to take a breather or walk away from the vacuum for any reason, it features a unique parking brake that locks the brush roll and keeps it from sliding down the wall or falling to the ground when you step away.

Two is better than one, and this mop and vacuum combo means you don't have to buy (and store) more than one product to keep your floors squeaky clean. This wet-dry vacuum from Bissell is a popular choice because it can vacuum up dry debris, clean up minor liquid spills and mop your hard floors with no extra attachments. Pet owners will appreciate the included tangle-free brush roll, which helps prevent pet hair from getting caught while cleaning, as well as the pet hair strainer to separate pet hair from other debris. We found that controlling how much water is dispensed onto your floors is easy with the touch of one accessible button on the handle of the device. It has three cleaning modes — hard floor, area rug and turbo — plus a self-cleaning cycle that flushes out any debris left in the vacuum’s brush roll.

In our testing, we found this vacuum mop easy to assemble and use and were impressed with its performance in our dry pickup and wet/dry combo pickup tests. LED headlights make it easier to see the dust in its path, and unlike traditional mops, you’re never cleaning with dirty water thanks to its separate water tanks. Just keep in mind that this model is corded and doesn't feature automatic cord rewind.

Sometimes big messes are unavoidable, and when you need a serious machine for larger-than-average areas, this vacuum cleaner will do the trick. With a 40-foot cleaning radius and a 2-liter dust cup, the SmartClean Canister Vacuum is made for big jobs. Not only will it stretch to the farthest corners of each room, but it can cover any surface you need with its automatic floor type recognition.

This bagless canister vacuum has three cleaning modes and can be used across all types of flooring from carpet and hardwood to tile and linoleum. While we haven't tested this model in the Lab just yet, our experts appreciate that it has edge-cleaning bristles to get the dust out of hard-to-reach places like baseboards and along the edges of cupboards. Bissell makes post-cleaning tasks easier too with automatic cord rewind and a dust cup that is emptied with the touch of a button. Large wheels on the canister make the vacuum easy to pull along as you clean too. Our pros do warn, however, that it might be too heavy for some at just under 20 pounds.

This robot vacuum and mop combo puts automated cleaning at your fingertips. Aside from switching out the tanks, you can just sit back and relax while it hustles around your room doing all the work for you. It's a great maintenance cleaner, first vacuuming hard floors and area rugs to remove surface dust, then scrubbing hard floors to get them clean and shiny. In our tests, it cleaned hardwood and tile floors thoroughly by getting into tight corners and picking up pet hair and dry debris we didn’t even know was there.

The tanks need to be switched when going from vacuuming to wet mopping, but they are easy to remove and empty when your robot is done cleaning. The SpinWave’s microfiber mopping pads are machine-washable, and we found the brush roll easy to remove and clean. Plus, the mop pads spin as the robot travels across your floors, making sure that it is scrubbing and not just wiping them. The same SpinWave technology can also be found in the Bissell SpinWave Hard Floor Spin Mop, a top pick in our round-up of the best mops tested by our cleaning experts.

Get in all those hard-to-reach places that probably haven't seen a good clean in longer than you'd like to admit with this handheld vacuum. It's an excellent option for smaller jobs like cars, upholstered furniture and pet beds. The Pet Hair Eraser has a rotating brush attachment to pick up pet hair that seems to get everywhere, a cordless design for extra reach (and convenient storage) and a multi-level filtration system, all for an affordable price. This handheld vacuum’s super lightweight design makes it easy to maneuver around furniture and use on stairs.

We first tested a similar Pet Eraser model from Bissell several years ago and were impressed with its performance in cleaning dirt from bare floors. Its controls are simple to use and emptying the dust cup is easy too. Plus, its small size means you can stash it away in your closet or cupboard without taking up too much space. It's quick, efficient, versatile and budget-friendly. Just keep in mind that similar models have been rated as noisy in Lab tests.
