Best Vacuum For Travel Trailer (2023 Update)

We added the Dirt Devil before our most recent trip and it worked great. Great suction power and ability to reach all areas in the camper. Pretty simple install, we did have to run a couple of power boxes under the dinette seat. Other than that it was a pretty straight forward install. My wife loves it.S.

Hello, I received my Dirt Devil RV Central Vacuum today. Upon un-packing and checking contents it appears that I only received approximately 5' of the remote installation hose. The item description on your web-site says: "Installation kit includes – flex connector kit, 9' remote hose, brown inlet valve, mounting plate, inlet valve wire & mounting hardware." I tried stretching the hose but it doesn't come close to 9' in length. Is the description wrong on your web-site or is the "kit" I received short 4+ feet of hose? Everything else in the order was correct and included. I would appreciate this error being corrected. Your web-site does show an optional 9' installation hose that is available. Thank you DanDaniel K

I bought this to clean up kitty litter my cat tracks everywhere. I had been using a Dirt Devil (similar small vacuum) but as not pleased with its performance. So far, I prefer this one. But be real – this is a "toy" vacuum, meant only for light sweep ups. This one was easy to put together, its light weight, and works fine with small messes.anniedancer50

This little guy is super awesome and makes clean up super fast and easy, just what I was looking for as with having osteoarthritis I can't always sweep my wood floors, this even vacuums small rugs in the bathroom that are thick and shaggy. I am super happy. Only issue is the head rolls around while using I guess to get every direction but it's easy to maneuver.ramgar17

Not a carpet vac but it does clean bare floors and scatter rugs. Doesn't suck the rugs up like a really powerful vac does. No brush roll but nothing for long hair to get tangled in, either. More powerful than a cordless vac and the cord is long enough.margaretw465

This little wonder is basically a hand held vac with a handle. But don't let the small size fool you. Performs better than my canister vac. Plus it is light weight and easy to maneuver, Plus it is easy to empty. Perfect for vacuuming under beds or other tight places. And to top it off, the price is very affordable.ubfinebirds

So glad I purchased this great light weight floor vac. Its so easy and very powerful on picking up little things on the floor, dust, crumbs..etc. Very glad that I invested into it.myra-essence

The kids and I love it. Super light weight. It has a decently long cord. I love how you can use the little gray piece AND the handle To reach up high in ceiling corners or fans. Its also super easy to empty. Worth the money for sure. This is obviously for light weight vacuuming nothing too crazy. But its got great suction!stince_2848

Moved from Sweden to US a few months ago and was annoyed with the traditional vacuum cleaner we had here, having having to maneuver a heavy and loud motor and not being able to reach underneath furniture. Was driving me crazy and it felt like it was blowing out more dust than it picked up. The Tritan vacuum is very efficient and I was actually surprised by the high quality and power of the motor considering this is not a very expensive machine. It really does the job and with the included attachments it works for any cleaning need. The only downside to it is that I would have liked the electric cord to be a bit longer for better range, but it works well anyway. Many years ago there was a Swedish brand of Vacuum cleaners called "Elektrolux" and they had a slogan "Nothing sucks like an Elektrolux". I would change that now to "Nothing sucks like a Prolux". 🙂Anthony76

I really wanted to love this vacuum, but will have to return it, in spite of the suction being awesome. The suction is as good or better than my Shark vacuums. I needed a good HEPA canister vacuum that would work well on my hard surface floors, window shades/blinds and walls/ceilings. I was disappointed to find that even though there is a HEPA filter, the bags are not HEPA bags. I haven't determined, yet,if the vacuum is sealed well enough, to avoid dispersing dust back into the room. Additionally, the bristles on the hard floor brush are so stiff and scratchy, I am reluctant to use it on my hardwood floors. Unfortunately, none of my better attachments, from my previous vacuums, fit the Tritan. I need to be able to vacuum my walls and ceilings, but the floor brush is not suitable for that either. I would like to be able to comfortably (and safely) vacuum the tops of door frames and window shades and blinds, without using the extension tube. But , the stiff hose does not stretch and is too short to directly attach the dust brush and reach overhead, to the top of my door frames. Back to the drawing board for me, as the Tritan Canister is just not suitable for my needs.C.B.

I am 69 years old, so believe me when I tell you I have had many vacuum cleaners in my life, from a Kirby to a Miele to the less expensive uprights that just don't last. When I moved and left behind my latest upright as a gift to the buyer of my house, I had to find a new vacuum. One that would last. One that could suck up dog hair from my Australian Shepherd. One that was maneuverable and could also clean my truck's interior. When I saw the ad for the Prolux Triton I was taken by how absolutely cute it is. I love its retro looks, like a 50's space ship with chrome and a sleek shape. I love the design of the retractable cord, its maneuverability and the very very powerful motor. I now have a restored vintage house (circa 1900) which requires a strong machine to eliminate dust. I am very pleased with my Prolux Triton!!Vicki

I received this vacuum for Christmas, and have been using it daily for about three months now. I really wanted to love this vacuum, but I don't. The main issue I have is with the self-cleaning brushroll: Sure it doesn't tangle, but that would require it to actually pick up fur in the first place. This vacuum adamantly refuses to pick up any fur that isn't just sitting loose on the surface of the rug…which is deeply unhelpful. The roll just wipes fur along, without doing anything to agitate the carpet. I have used the entire battery life of this vacuum on my single living room area rug, just to still need to use my rubber broom. For a vacuum that costs >$300, this is extremely disappointing, and considering the vacuum is called the "pet pro," I truly don't understand why this vacuum simply cannot handle fur in any regard. My second problem with this vacuum is that it leaks dust from every single joint and seam the entire time I'm using it. Who wants to be covered in dust from vacuuming? Not I. Additionally, the wand itself clogs constantly in a way that's very difficult to clean out. In fact, most of this vacuum is difficult to clean, outside of changing the filters. I have two cats and a lab mix who sheds like it's his mission on earth, and frankly, this vacuum just does not cut it.LindseyJoy

I've never made a purchase that I've been more disappointed in. The vacuum worked fine the first couple of times now every time is vacuum my house I have to unclog the machine from the many many many potential clog spots. I never once had this problem with our previous dyson vacuum. I have a golden retriever, so yes, having to maybe unload the vacuum is to be expected however for a product that supposedly specializes in pets, it does a TERRIBLE job. I've had to take apart the base of the bottom when that gets clogged, the shaft of the vacuum comes apart and now hair seems to get clogged making the base of the vacuum essentially worthless. I am so so so bummed and wish I would have returned this while I had the chance. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT IF YOU WANT A PRODUCT THAT ACTUALLY PICKS UP DOG HAIR.Megan

I absolutely love that it is cordless. I loved the black friday price… i think it was $159 or $179 something like that . WAY under the price for a dyson. I absolutely love it. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat all whom shed ALOT. I use this vacuum daily, several times a day and have not had any issue with the battery. Keep in mind i mentioned having a little zoo of animals, so the first month i had to take the machine apart to be able to remove clogged hair on the long stick. The instructions dont really tell you how to clean it. There is more than just emptying the basket. To avoid it getting clogged, i now try to blow out all the hair in the tubes Atleast once a week. Only negative i would mention is I wish it was a bit stronger and wish it gave an option on height. For example if there is a leaf on the floor it will not suck it in becase the vacuum in not high off the ground to pick it up. I believe the dyson is a tad stronger but its not worth paying $400, when i can just use this one for under $200. I do not regret purchasing this at all. My house feels cleaner and its super easy to use.If you find it on special buy it!Kelly

I have always wanted to own a cordless vacuum and now this Black and Decker Power Series Extreme cordless stick vacuum is making my life so easy. I like the fact that it’s lightweight and easy to handle. I can easily carry it around my house with least effort. Being cordless I no more have to struggle with wires. The dustbin is removable and can easily be emptied. The handle can be detached from the brush of you just need to use the stick to clean the corners or crevices. The anti tangle brush bar is something I am happy about. The vacuum is powerful and sucks dust and dirt very well. Great for both hardwood floors and also carpet. The LED light is the best feature especially when the places are poorly lit the LED light helps in cleaning up the spots and makes my house more clean. The battery holds good for about one hour. And I own several black and decker lawn tools so I mix and match my batteries and that’s really a plus point. Definitely is much less noisy compared to other vacuums. The accessories given with this vacuum are very good and love the fact that I can hang it in my tools closet after using it. This cordless stick vacuum is great for cleaning stairs. It’s easy to twist and turn the agitator to empty the dust and dirt. I can easily charge the batteries too. All the functions are exceptional and I am so impressed with this!Kiomina

I've had a lot of bad luck with cordless vacuums in my life. They generally lack enough power to accomplish anything you'd want them to. The POWERSERIES Extreme Cordless Stick Vacuum, however, has not left me feeling disappointed! I have a mixture of hard floor, low pile carpet, and medium pile carpet throughout my house. The high pile carpet does not benefit much from this cordless vacuum, but for spot cleaning the short pile carpet, this thing can do the trick if I put it on "MAX" speed (although it's a bit loud at that level). But where this thing really shines for me is on hard floor. Even on the lowest speed, it hasn't had any problems picking debris up off my hard flooring. The biggest highlight was when I discovered that it fits beneath my couch!! The couch only has a 3-inch clearance, so it becomes a black hole that gathers all kinds of junk: leaves, dust, dog hair, dropped food, etc… To clean under there, I've always had to lift up the couch and move it out of the way. But this cordless vacuum allows me to clean underneath it completely, without moving the couch at all!! Talk about a win! It also has some handy features, which I'll list off below. Pros: -Easy to empty dustbin -Lowest speed isn't too loud -Works great on hard flooring -Convenient charger allows you to hang the vacuum on the wall -Very low profile -Convenient battery indicator light -Floor lights make it easier to see debris -Anti-tangle brush head -Brush head can be turned off for delicate floors Cons: -Not great on carpet -"MAX" speed is loud -Feels top heavy if you store it on the floor instead of mountedShondra

Most cordless vacuum come with the rap that there not as powerful and the battery life is subpar. I did not experience that with this Black and Decker powerseries extreme cordless stick vacuum. Black and Decker's Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner Comes fully loaded with several features that a traditional vacuum cleaner would carry but more convenient and light. Set up for the stick vacuum is quick and easy. First you're going to want to charge your 20V battery (average batteries for stick vacuums are 18v.) Keep it on the charging station, while not in use, so your vacuum is ready whenever you need it. The stick vacuum conveniently comes with a dock station, for charging, that you can hang anywhere in your home. Once that is done, Simply click the battery into the adapter. The vacuum has three different power settings, so you can get the most out of your time vacuuming. On a full battery you can get up to 55 minutes of run time. This powerseries cordless stick vacuum came with 3 attachments, For multiple uses. The first attachment is the stick part. This is great for reaching high or low areas. Also, the other attachments fit unto this one. The next attachment, is a extender to the stick vacuum, and has optional bristle brush. Last is the vacuum head, for floors. This attachment can be use by attaching to the handheld device, for stairs, or the stick for the rest of your floors. The head is easily maneuverable, for going in different directions. You can use it with or with the spin brushes on, with a push of a button on the handheld device. Located above the battery life indicator. This is great when switching from carpet to hardwood floors. The spin brushes are designed to bring dirt inward, (like the letter V) which is way more effective, and doesn't blow debris outward. The spin brush was also, suprisly easy to clean. My absolute favorite thing about this vacuum I have saved for last. We are a houses that carried other Black and Decker products, and this 20V battery is interchangeable with other black and Decker power tools! So this way you always have a backup on hand. I found this stick vacuum by Black and Decker to be very well thought out.The vacuum is so lightweight you can click it straight, and it will stand alone. This Black and Decker cordless stick vacuum is meant for efficiency, convenience, and versatility, and it does just that.Nekramer30

I love this little compact car vacuum ! It's meant only for my car..PERIOD! And the suction of this is great as long as I keep the car in IDLE as I clean my interior. I read lots of reviews about this vac before pulling the trigger and the little nuggets I picked up from them went along way in making it mine. The BlackMichael

My little buddy. This is a good little vacuum. It picks up a good bit but it definitely doesn’t have the same suction capabilities as a car wash vacuum. Nice to have to clean up small messes in car. Easy to clean and use.CrysCrys

I really like my Bissell rug cleaner but this CleanView Pet Slim Corded Vacuum, not so much. Don't like the way it doesn't stand up on it's own. The button to release the dirt cup is in an awkward spot. Don't like the dust cup because if you handle it the wrong way, the dirt falls out of a hole (which is where the dirt enters in the first place). The "head" is floppy. It doesn't stay up (like a Shark) where you have to push down on it. There is really no place to grab and carry it comfortably, especially for a short person (which I am). I am on the lookout for a new stick vacuum. I should have sent this one back but it's too late now.Nancy

We have dogs and cats with bare floors so hair is a big issue in our home. I purchased this vac as a replacement for cordless vacs that I am constantly having to buy. They quickly lose their suction and battery power so this time i went with a corded vac. I own a kirby, I love it for my deep down cleaning but is so cumbersome for my daily (yes daily) vac of my home. The cord is long enough that i only need to use 2 outlets to vac 4 bdrms 2 baths kitchen and 2 living areas. Plenty long enough! Love the cord length! Suction is great. The edge pulls debri (I mean dirt, dust and lottsa hair) from the edges of my baseboards and from under furniture edges. This vac has 2 settings 1-suction only, 2-suction with brush roll. I first assumed being that I have bare floors, that i can vac w/ just the suction. However when it was powered on I had lifted the vac head then switched to brush roll while it was in mid air, POOF, all sorts of hair went flying everywhere. Apparently static caused hair to stick to the "undercarriage" of the vac head. I now vac my bare floors w/ brush roll going. The vac head sits quite close to the floor so when I vac my exterior door mats and rugs some get sucked/sealed to vac head making it difficult to vac. Perhaps maybe wheel adjustment to keep this from happening. I now just broom those that i cant vac. Pitty. The tube does not extend or get shorter. Its kind of a hassle when im trying to vac in tighter spaces. Another thing that I love about this vac is the it lays completely flat completely parallel to the floor w/o the vac head lifting up like most vacs do. So the reach under furniture like beds, desks and tables goes as far as up to the dirt canister. Another issue, when i must remove the vac head to use tube only, the hook to where the cord gets wrapped around gets in the way of me wanting to reach tight places. Why cant cords get wrapped at the top portion of vac not all the way down its shaft. Canister is larger, big plus!sylvia

We ordered this particular model on Amazon via The Bissell Store (still as of 2022) after seeing the owner's commitment to helping local animal shelters. Only after contacting customer service did we find out this is actually a discontinued model with many problems.
The roller bar itself started burning after 11 uses or 3 months so we returned it to Bissell. The replacement lasted only a month before it too started to smoke & leave marks on the roller bar.
We only use this on our hardwood floors, and three large wool area rugs yet this is the worst vacuum we've ever owned.
Now returning for a second time. We have been told, that "the latest" version or Model 28311 does not have the same problems.
This has been such a disappointment, especially when you're purchasing via the Bissell store directly and there is no mention that you are purchasing an older, discontinued model.
Many other reviews state the same problems as well as the wheels squeak when you move the vacuum.Robert Thoreson jr.

We really wanted to like it. It's attractive, low profile, lightweight and super convenient. It has all the tools you'd ever want. But after 3 weeks of light use it's sucking power has dropped dramatically, and it's performance is lacklustre. As an example, it's started having trouble picking up crumbs without them all falling out of the unit into the floor again once you turn it off. We love the concept of a stick vaccum and would reccomend to anyone. Just not this particular one. We're going to return it and find a more powerful unit.Ryan

Love this vacuum! It’s lightweight manoeuvres super easy and has great suction. The battery runs on the lowest setting for 30mins! But I do recommend buying another battery which makes it even better if you use the vacuum on the other settings. I use it on hardwood and low pile rugs and it picks up all the different sizes of kitty litter from around the tray. It does seem a little flimsy in some areas where it feels like it could snap almost. But overall best vacuum by far!LilB

We have a small home with birds and a dog. Most floors are laminate with two carpeted areas and one area rug. The price point and reviews online were positive. This stick vac does the job well and is easy to put together, easy to empty and takes very little space. The battery lasts long enough for daily cleaning. We’ve only had the vac for a couple of weeks but are very pleased with it. A video on YouTube helped answer any questions. So far nothing negative to share.Og

This is the only vacuum that picks up my dog’s hair on the first pass. We have a Dalmatian with all the short white hairs. Vac is quiet. Half as loud as my prior upright Oreck. Vac is also appropriately sized and rolls well enough; wheels could be a little smoother. I appreciate that I can store it flat or tipped standing up in my closet. Customer service was excellent and responded quickly- videos are helpful and when I still had questions they helped immediately via email. Nice that this vacuum seems sturdy and has some metal parts. Agree w others that it is hard to detach the power carpet head in order to put the bare floor attachment on. It is a very snug detach. Sometimes I just turn the power head off and vacuum all surfaces that way. The different suction levels are appreciated for all the little kitchen rugs and works well for different pile heights of my larger 8’x10’ rugs. I vacuum very frequently due to the dog hair and this has solved my area rug and bare floor needs. Appreciate the extra hidden tools that were included under the ‘hatch. I ordered extra bags separately; I couldn’t tell in advertising info if vac came with any/or how many. Vac arrived in lge box, well packed and protected, with instruction sheet and video links. 😊 Vac came with one bag installed already plus an extra. And HEPA filter already installed of course. Nice touch Prolux.😊 Well done Terra Vac!Roxie

I’ve done a lot of research and shopping looking for a vacuum that could keep up with my 3300 square-foot house and my never ending shedding fur babies. I’ve had at least four, across 3 well known brands, none of which stood up to the test. I came across this particular vacuum ( Prolux TerraVac ) and said OK I’ll try this. WOW, not only was I able to vacuum in half the time, it also picked up all of the pet hair under the coffee table and dining room table. I am so pleased and amazed with the features that this vacuum comes with. The versatility of this vacuum is amazing. The suction power is awesome – I love the fact that I’m able to move from carpet to hardwood without bending down and changing the settings. I simply just press the button on the sweeper with my foot and that’s it. The attachment for pet hair (OMG) Is like no other. I was able to do two flights of stairs in under five minutes. Normally it would take me 10 to 20 minutes. I will also mention how quiet it is. Compared to the other vacuums that are out there this vacuum is quiet. I am happy to say I am very pleased with his vacuum. If you tried many vacuums to no avail give this one a try you won’t regret it.Henry78

This is my second Prolux vacuum and a disappointment. First, to sing its praises, it has great suction and attacks any and all dust bunnies and dog hair, which is what you want in a quality vacuum. BUT, the attachments are extremely difficult to trade out. It's a struggle changing them. Even my husband, who has a lot more arm muscle, has difficultly. The hose, admittedly on the shorter side, is very "stiff" making maneuvering the vacuum a struggle. Vacuuming has never been a favorite pastime so whatever can make it easier is welcome. I now find myself doing a double groan when it's time to use it. I've actually thought of exploring a hose replacement but maybe it comes down to finding another vacuum (only purchased this past fall!)L.U.

I would rather lick my floors clean than spend my hard earned money on such a useless piece of equipment again. I have previously had a Bosch and Phillips stick vac and both were great but struggled to sustain enough battery to do my whole house. I purchased the Ryobi one as I loved the changeable battery idea. It sucks hair & dog hair fine… but if you want to see anything else get cleaned up… buy a different unit. It takes great delight in picking up everything larger than 2ml and spitting it directly behind you leaving a wake of rubbish confetti. I just love looking up my hallway and seeing what looks like the ants version of a festival clean up. This is the single most useless piece of equipment I own.Jazmin

I've purchased this vacuum once and am having replaced under warranty for a third time for the same reason. The brush motor head keeps burning out, rendering it useless. Overall: The vacuum has subpar suction if the brush is in place but not spinning. Removing the brush allows for much better suction on hard surfaces (which is great when the motor is dead) The dustbin is always clogged which means reduced suction and more frequent emptying. The unit is generally heavy to lug around. The attachments are loose fitting and fall out if you look at them wrong. Runtime varies between 20-40 minutes (with brush vs without) The warranty replacement is fantastic. I can't in good conscience recommend this product to anyone.Rollie

So firstly I ordered this Ryobi stick online and the Bunnings service was exceptional. I thought I'd try a Ryobi because I have quite a few other Ryobi products and batteries. Well WOW – this thing absolutely sh….ts on my other well known cyclonic stick vacuum that cost me over $1000 and now needs a new main body after its done barely any work in the 3 years I've had it. The Ryobi has strong suction, literally picks up everything, it is comfortable to to hold, really easy to manoeuvre as it has a better slightly smaller sized head. I used a 2.5amp battery because it was lighter and I still vacuumed for ages. I wouldn't say its overly noisy, that motor is working hard to lift floor debris. As this product develops, the method for emptying of the dirt barrel could be addressed but this unit is magic and Ive recommended this to all my friends – big thumb up.Heidi

Works great! I own the other style handheld Dewalt vacuum and purchased this one for use in my camper van due to the attachments. The bristled brushes cleans molding without scratching it. The extension makes vacuuming the floor easy on your back. The pointed attachment is great for doing under the seats and hard to reach places.Grant P

This vacuum has good suction and decent capacity. It seems best suited as a small projects vacuum to be kept near your pantry, garage, or around your cars. The tube is sized to fit common small diameter shop vacuum hoses and accessories, so it's nice to not be tied to one proprietary set of fittings. According to the documentation, the filter needs to be knocked clean and can't be blown out with an air hose. It sucked up fine wood dust without redistributing it in the air, but emptying the filter was a little of a pain. It's compatible with all the DeWalt batteries I have, from 1.5 to 6 AH. The motor noise is loud, a little louder than my previous cheapo dust buster, but only slightly. Overall I'm quite happy with this vacuum and hope the long term durability justified the price tag.LTools

I've waited years for DeWalt to make this exact product. I have all the batteries I need and don't need to pay $399 for a Dyson that I have only two 1.5ah batteries on hand to deal with. This vacuum is perfect for around the house, cleaning hard surfaces with the floor attachment, and detailing cars. I will warn anyone that expects a bit too much of a compact vacuum, this will not clean your carpets. It will however clean your 3 year old's spilled cocoa puffs off the carpet without pulling out the Kirby or Shop Vac. 100% would recommend for shop, jobsite, and home. My wife loves it!tinathetranymantaylor

The Craftsman V20 cordless handheld vacuum packs a punch for a handheld vac it’s pretty powerful and this sucker is heavy thanks to the V20 4.0 AH lithium battery (although the battery does not come with the box it’s sold separately) Compared to other handheld vac‘s this is definitely more powerful and works much better and of course convenience great for the car workshop stairsteps things of that nature you don’t want to lug around a vacuum or a shop vac. It had a great suction with a crevice tool although it didn’t come with any other attachments it really doesn’t need them. I was surprised it wasn’t obnoxiously loud and the canister was a decent size to hold in between emptying. It didn’t just pick up small debris like dust and hair I was able to pick up little pieces of paper potato chips etc things a little bit larger than the average handheld use.Two stage filtration filter cordless and of course it’s a Craftsmens so you can’t go wrong with this vac!Oakleyblue

I absolutely this product. I use this little vacuum almost daily since I received it. It's very convenient and powerful. It is so lightweight and convenient, easy to carry and it can literally clean up just about anything. Great suction, strong, and very powerful. Has a large canister that can hold so much and it's super easy to empty. The life of the battery lasts a long time, and it's very easy to charge. Compact vacuum that can be stored in the trunk of your car or the closet at home. I am so impressed and happy with this new addition.Petaly

This Cordless Handheld Vacuum may look small but do not underestimate it because you will be very wrong. The battery is superb after charging. It lasts for hours and is very reliable. Easy to just pop in the base to recharge when needed for your next project. The vacuum is easy to empty when it gets full and to clean it out if it is messy. I find it an all around good, lightweight handheld vacuum for small to medium home projects and especially if you have small children. It will get tons of use just keeping it in your house for clean ups, so much easier than pulling out your vacuum cleaner. I love it and find so many uses for it inside and out.ajlurie

I have been using this garage vac for a few weeks and found it has been really convenient. It comes with a great set of attachments and we love the long hose and cord. It is great for cleaning out cars. We mounted it towards the front of our garage so we could easily get to cars in the driveway with the hose, but is also nice that it comes off the mount quickly so we can take it inside. We like it for cleaning the stairs. This unit has a lot more suction than any in-house vacuum we have ever used, but doesn't replace my 6 gallon shop vacuum simply because that can pick up more and heavier debris. I do wish the canister was a little bigger, but it is still nice to have there on the wall for smaller jobs.JMS97

I bought this vacuum after we moved into our house and finally had a space for both of our cars. I found this vacuum very easy to use for cleaning up the garage and the inside of cars without having to carry around a shop vac. Inside the box comes with great instructions on how to assemble with FAQ and tips to prevent damage. You can tell this company really cares about their products and the people that buy them.NikoSV21

Bought this for a general purpose garage vacuum. Like the lightweight vacuum and wall mount keeps it off the floor. Long hose and power cord allows it to go anywhere within my 2.5 car garage. Suction is good and filters ensure you are capturing dirt and not just circulating dirty air. Nice productMike S

It's the most easy to use shop vac I've ever had . If I need to vac something up right away and get back to what I was doing before , I don't have to mess with plugging it in or adding extension cords . Going to use it for cleaning chip pan on metal lathe and T-slots on my milling table . I may have to dedicate a filter cartridge for oily metal chips due to cutting oil . I use it on my drill press for metal chips and wood chips . Makes clean up done in seconds . Have had this Vac for 2 weeks and have used it almost every day in my small shop . I would like to add an extension to the hose for a longer reach . This way you can carry the vac in one hand and vac at floor level without bending over . The hose has a decent stretch to it , it just need a little longer wand .Thinking about machining some PVC pipe to fit end of hose . If this works then thats not an issue . This will also be my vac for my camper and my boat .Led Zephyr

I purchased this unit to compliment my large Rigid wet/vac so I wouldn't have to lug that beast around for small jobs around the house and garage. Uses my existing Hercules batteries and chargers and has plenty of power. I use it with a wand extension kit I had to get into small areas my house vac doesn't reach easily, especially under and behind furniture, crevices, baseboards, crown molding (I have 10' ceilings), around toilets, and for wet spills on my wood flooring. It's lightweight and easy to handle and store. A bonus I didn't really purchase it for was the blower function. More powerful than I expected, so it does well for small areas around my garage doors and porches. I have battery and gas blower for the larger areas and yard, so it comes in handy for spot jobs.BobbG

I purchased this for my boat as I can’t use a power cord out in the middle of the lake. Suction is adequate and really cleaned up my 20 ft. Bow rider with ease. I use it in my camp to clean hard to get at areas you can’t maneuver a bigger vac. Works great in the car as well. Wish it had a crevice tool and dust brush. Purchased the 5 amp battery pack and it really works well. I had a hard time telling the difference in performance when using either plug in cord or the battery. Makes the dust buster look like a joke. Excellent qualityDan

This vacuum works really well. It’s easy to maneuver and does a great job getting all the dirt. Taking the floor head off and using the pole to get into the edges is a dream compared to using a regular upright vacuum (I always seemed to go too far with the hose and knock over the vacuum). The canister is on the small side, but I only have carpet in 1 room and some area rugs so it’s not an issue for me. Never seemed to work that great on the hardwood floors. It spits everything it picks up out the back or falls back on the floor when I lift the vacuum up. The other thing that is bothersome for me is my hands cramp after so long from the extra weight of the canister/motor at the handle.jessica.s

This vacuum has so many features from carpeting, upholstery to hardwood! When I opened the box I was a little overwhelmed seeing all of the pieces but after looking through them it was explanatory what each piece was for. The filter looks like its just packaging and I thought it did not contain one in the box. But it is two pieces one is made of foam. Its easy to clean out the filter box where everything that's sucked up is contained. Just a simple click over the trash to release it. Its a great vacuum, so light and moves so quickly across the floors with a powerful suction. Comes with a dust mop attachment to use on hard wood floors. When using the dust mop piece it makes my hardwood floors sparkle. On rugs it lifts dirt that I thought I had gotten up with my regular vacuum its amazing. I thought it would be cumbersome to use because the motor is held mostly in your hand but its not a problem at all. It has interchangeable parts that can reach my venting fans in my bathroom very easily. Its very flexible and glides right under beds which are usually tough spots to reach. Makes vacuuming stairs a piece of cake! And everything is easily detachable and compactly self stored within itself.jojorenee

I purchased my Shark Rocket Corded Bagless Stick Vacuum for Carpet and Hard Floor Cleaning with Swivel Steering last month. I did not plan on buying this brand at first. My intent was a canister type vacuum that was not over 12 pounds. I noticed the Shark Rocket design immediately and the words "lightweight " caught my attention. I can't lift large heavy or bulky items any longer. I picked the Shark Rocket up and it felt great! I noticed it was designed to be user friendly. I can easily vacuum the entire floor without emptying the holder. There are several features that are wonderful including push button releases that allow you to change to attachments. For a lighter vacuum, the Shark has tremendous power. I love the ability to clean corners and baseboards at the push of a button. It is easy to empty and clean out, again, at the touch of a button. Above all, the Shark offers a 5 year warranty that comes standard. I highly recommend this vacuum!cameron .d

I bought this hand vacuum for my very independent 88 year old mother so she could 'tidy up her house'. She's had other brands of hand vacs before & was very disappointed in them. She absolutely loves her Bissell CleanView! It is light enough for her to work with and the curved handle makes it easy for her to hold. She has no difficulty changing the attachments or emptying the canister. She calls it 'her little super sucker'! I too was very impressed with its suction & ease of use . I went online to order one for myself but they are out of stock! I hope they will be back in stock soon because I definitely want one!Suzanne

Having a house full of messy boys and a shedding cat can be hard especially when you have hard wood floors that are always sticky and dusty . And carpet that always needs to be vacuumed. I recently received the Bissel Power Clean wet and dry vacuum. Let to me tell its the best cleaner out ! Its lightvweight easy to use . It has a long cord and all the attachments are perfect for the hard to reach places. My floors look brabd new and and carpet looks like it was just installed. It has a powerful suction aswell. I absolutely love this power cleaner and recommend it to anyone.Mama bear of 3

I used to have a Bissell Healthy Home 5770, and this is a huge step down. The one improvement it has is that the power button is not near the handle, so I don't keep accidentally turning it off. For perspective on the following, my house is 1200 sq ft of wood floor with one 5×8 area rug. The negatives are: – Single side suction – It is so lightweight that it doesn't stick to the floor when I'm driving it along the rug. – The dust bin is too small, and not easy to empty. The debris can get stuck in crevices, requiring complete dis-assembly of the bin to empty. I had to handle very dusty parts to remove all of the contents. – The power cord is too short. – The hose is WAY too short. Specs say 6 feet, but it is about 3 when not stretched. Any amount of stretching topples the lightweight vacuum. – The extender attachment is also extremely short. Even with the crevice tool attached I have to bend all the way over to reach baseboards, and I am only 5'1". – The way the hose plugs into the vacuum housing is not very secure, and the port seems flimsy like it will break if I plug it in too firmly. – Bare floor setting is not low enough. – Beater continues to rotate even when I am using the hose & attachments – Overall seems flimsy The positives: – Cool color – Power switch not on the handle – Has a turbo brush, great for upholstery Overall, this might be good for a small apartment with all wood or tile flooring (except the bare floor setting is too high).Susan

When I first got this vacuum I was head over heels for it. Now, almost two years later, I'm wondering if it's finally time to find a replacement. It's definitely a great vacuum for homes with a lot of carpet (such is the case with my townhome), but I couldn't tell you how many times this thing has fallen over and hit me while I was using the hose/TurboBrush! My previous Bissell (lasted 19 years) had a hook at the bottom for the hose so the whole thing would stay upright, but this newer model lacks that much needed safety feature. Suction power is great, but you can definitely notice a drop once your bin starts getting full — Especially if you haven't cleaned it out completely by taking it apart and getting all the fine dust that gets stuck near the top / cyclonic area. Also make sure you clean the foam filter! I vacuum almost every day and wash mine every week. Both filters get replaced every 2-3 months. Not impressed with the TurboBrush, since it basically doesn't spin if you put any pressure on it. I also have to keep taking it apart to fix the paddle wheel, which sticks after a while because fine hair gets wrapped around the small metal rods that hold it up. Avoid if you have mostly bare floors. The base brush doesn't stop spinning, so debris comes flying back at you. I just use a broom to sweep things to the edges and suck it up with the hose.April
