Others say...
"Nice machine, just not extraordinary..." Ok! So, I got this little green monster a couple a months ago based on the great reviews it got! As soon as it came to my door (not a day too soon, as my house had not been vacuumed for some 4 months! yuck!) I put this bad baby to work! And boy! It sucked so much dust out of my carpet I could not believe it! I mean, it just kept on going, and going! I tought the dust would never end! And that is just the half of it. I have hardwood floors in the majority of my house and boy, was I in for a pleasent surprise! After going over the whole area with my new machine, the floors actually felt squiky clean! I had, or thought I had a good vacuum cleaner for my hardwood floors before, but the Bissell exceeded my expectations by far!! It could not do a better job on hard surfaces! I was extatic! Now, the extasy started to fade away a bit the next day, when, of course, I was at it again, sice my three year old forgets to remove his shoes when coming from the back yard sometimes....All the excuse I needed to try the green monster again! Well...not so happy anymore, because it kinda started to make a funny noise, like the whirring other reviewers talk about on this very site, and I have no idea why! There is nothing stuck in the hose, or anywhere, I cleaned the bin before the dirt even reached the "full" mark...so, that is a bit of a mistery. But I said oh well, maybe that is just the way it sounds after it gets some dust in its pipes. BUt, to my not so pleasant surpeise, the suction action was not the same anymore either. Now, it still sucks a heck of a lot better than anything I ever tried, but when cleaning hardwood floors, I sometimes have to go over a little crumb twice before it picks it up, whereas the first time I used it, it sucked everything but the floor itself! So, that being said, those two are some of the things that are starting to eat away at my love affair with my Bissell Total Floors Velocity.... Other things would be: 1. the weight!! This thing is a far cry from the 8 punder I used to have! It is sooo heavy, you really need to switch arms every few minutes! Maybe I'm just out of shape? 2. It does tip over on your head, or whatever body part is closest to it while trying to use the hose extension. So beware! 3. The cleaning of the cleaning machine mechanism and such: not as "dirt free" as one would think. Yes, you do not touch the dust itself, there is no bag, and such, but you DO have to shake the thing against something to get the dust to loosen up from the receptacle, an you DO get dust flying around all over the place! So, either put the whole thing in a plastic bag (which then means you have to wahs the container, becuse dust will stick to the outside of it) or, definitely empty it outdoors! No such thing as not getting ANY dust on your hands or in your lungs! Other than that, I can't think of anything that I do not like about it. For the price, it is definitely worth it! "Very Happy" Very happy with this vacuum. Easy to put together. Use it on hardwood, tile, Oriental rugs and wall to wall. Cleans all well. Love the self propelled. Not too heavy. Love the long cord. Like the attachments. Does everything I was looking for in a vacuum. Leaves the air smelling clean after vacumming while other vacuums left my house smelling like dust or other odors. "The worst vaccum I've ever owned!" All the years I have owned vacuums--this is the worst! I thought Bissell was supposed to make good products--WRONG! It's only a year and a half old and ready to be replaced---it's too broken to be fixed. I vacuum probably once a week. So here are the problems with it---canister is way too small which causes dust to back up and clog another filter area which is difficult to clean. The hose attachment is always coming loose so you are sucking up nothing. Plastic pieces have broken off---the hose holder at the bottom, the attachment holder. It doesn't have very good suction and that is the basic problem with it--why else would you buy a vacuum? Never Bissell--never again. "Powerful, big and noisy" This is a heavy, wide machine with a visible dirt container which is dusty to empty. I like the long power cord, but the brackets make it hard to wind up. The attachments are well-designed and easy to use. There are controls so you can raise and lower, and even turn off, the beater brushes. The best thing about the Bissell 3990 is its ability to clean deeply and completely, and that's what I bought it for. "till now working good" Reasonable good, pretty comfortable. Since I have it only for few weeks, do not know about the reliability.

What our customer's say! "I am impresseds", I very rarely rate anything 5 stars, but this machine comes close. I vacuumed the house for the third time since receiving the machine. Had I been using the former vacuum and it worked as efficiently as this one, I would have had to change bags at least 4 times. I had to empty the large canister twice. It is still collecting the carpet freshner powder that the other machine has been missing for the past several years. On bare floors, I'm accustomed to seeing small particles being blown away from the vacuum but it doesn't happen with this one. We have 4 carpeted rooms and the rest is tile. This vacuum works very well on both surfaces. "Does it's job", I haven't had this long enough to know how it will last in the long run, but am happy as a new user. It turned out to be easier to push than I thought it would be and it does pick up well. I still prefer a cannister but had to opt for an upright because of balance problems. This appears to me to be a good product and it is a reasonably priced one as well. Only complaint so far, it needs a certain amount of hand strength to assemble. "love it love it love it", this vacuum picked up so much dirt i was shocked. its incredible. ive had it for just a week so i cant attest to its longevity. if it only lasts for a couple of years, its worth the money. i love the long cord and the bagless feature. my daughter-in-law just bought a vac with a bag (which is so yesterday). we took pictures of the dirt we collected and emailed it to her and now she's upset. I highly recommend this machine. "good value", after two attempts with a Dyson we eventually gave up and returned them, we then bought this cheaper vacuum while we researched a little better. After a month using this vacuum we are not bothering to research. It does a fantastic job, cleans deep pile carpets well, reduces the 'sneeze' factor in the house. Its heavy to use, but an average person would have no problems with this. "Just okay", I purchased this vacuum hoping for a powerful unit that would be great on dog hair. My 2 year old simular model bissel broke down way too early{ belt would fall off every use- even new belts} but picked up TONS of dust and pet hair. This new vacuum seems to just pick up a lot of fine dirt. I don't know why I don't see much hair picked up. It is very good on my tile floor with no scatter when the brushes are deactivated. Overall was twice the price of my old Bissel and not worth it. 
Read this reviews before You buy... "great vacuum", I bought this vacuum after reading all the other reviews. I am not disappointed! This thing picks up so much dirt and dust and hair! I have two cats and this vacuum is just amazing. My 21 year old daughter wanted to try it and ended up vacuuming the whole house just to see how much it would pick up. Now she keeps borrowing it. The dust cup is easy to remove and I do clean the first filter every time--but only because of the cats. I couldn't be happier. "Terrible Customer Service", Well, this was a great vacuum while it worked. It definitely lived up to all the promises of the other reviews. In just 3 months, and maybe 15 uses max, we had to replace the belt 4 times. Then the motor just burned out. After speaking with several discourteous Bissell representatives who told me I needed to drive 1.5 hours to get my vacuum fixed, I got a return label and sent the vacuum back to Bissell. I was promised a new vacuum in 2 weeks after my return. 3 weeks have passed, and I just now received my "new" vacuum. Unfortunately, its not new nor is it a Total Floors. In addition to the wrong model, they sent a hose that didn't fit the vacuum. So once again, I have a broken vacuum, not to mention a vacuum I didn't order. All-in-all, the vacuum works well when it works. However, Bissell's customer service is terrible and they didn't even provide the right vacuum. I don't recommend Bissell for their customer service. "I love this vac!", This is such a great vaccuum. I never imagined I could get such a great product at such an affordable price. As soon as I got it, I assembled it, which was very easy, and immediately vaccuumed my living room floor (which I had just vaccuumed the day before with my 'old' vaccuum). I picked up more dirt than I thought we had! Then I took it for the real test: the kitchen linoleum. Usually, when I vaccuum a hard floor, I end up with little pieces of trash thrown all over my feet, and the floor is never really clean. This time was different! I got NOTHING thrown back at my feet, and when I was done, I walked barefoot across the floor. It felt like I had just swept! I can't believe I'm saying this, but I will probably never sweep again, this vaccuum does such a great job. I am thrilled with it. "great cleaner", I am very happy with the vacuum. It works great on all types of floors and gets very close to the edges and walls. The attachments are great for the car, stairs and couch. It is on the heavy side and a little heavy to push but I am very happy with it. "This vacuum sucks...and not the right way", I purchased this vacuum based on the positive reviews on Amazon. I have two dogs, including one sheperd mix (long hair & lots of it). At first the vacuum performed great. I replaced a dirt devil that needed retirement, and this was a great improvement. Within a few months the suction was reduced. I checked the filters and always empty the canister when it is half full. I also checked the underneath of the vacuum including removing the bottom plate, and removed all the hoses, cleaned them, and returned them to the unit. Later I found that above the canister there is a plastic piece that can be removed. Upon removal this piece was found to be clogged with hair and dirt, and seemed be the problem. Now, just a few vacuum jobs later the suction is still not great, and the (useless) suction indicator is not in the green. This indicator has a red section that's supposed to tell you it's clogged, a green section that's supposed to tell you all clear. My vacuum stays in the gray section. What use is this? The hair clumps on the floor instead of being sucked into the vacuum. I am constantly cleaning the lower filter and checking the plastic piece above the canister. This is messy work, and what good is a bagless vacuum that you have to get your hands and arms full of dust to clean every other time you use it? Another gripe is the vacuum arm that wraps around the unit. Every time I use the vacuum this arm comes loose from the lower section that connects the suction to the bottom of the vacuum. I usually notice it when the hair on the ground clumps or the canister comes up empty. The vacuum is noisier than when we first received the unit. Another reviewer stated he had a belt meltdown within a week. I know exactly what happened because the same thing happened with my vacuum. Fortunately I had my wits about me enough that day to notice the vacuum head not spinning and a slightly different noise. The mechanism that keeps the vacuum head from spinning is just a lever that pushes the belt past the motor drive. The motor drive still spins like crazy, the belt's just not attached. However, if the belt slips off this lever onto the motor drive directly, the belt spins on the motor drive and the stationary lever simultaneously. Looking at the operation of this, it's easy to see how a belt would melt down within minutes. The $60 dirt devil is noisy, and has a bag, but it was a lot less hassle. Personally, after this bagless experience I'm ready to go back to having a vacuum with a bag. I haven't found the right vacuum yet, but this is the wrong one. |
