Customer reviews for Bissell PowerClean FurFinder Deluxe with Extra Battery forMember photos
Didnt know what I was missing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had stick vacuums in the past, but always got frustrated with the debris left behind. I like to walk around my hard floors barefoot and can’t stand the feeling of dirt sticking to my feet. The PowerClean FurFinder is a game changer. The powerful headlight illuminates every speck of dust on the floor and helps me thoroughly clean. I was actually embarrassed to finally see just how dirty my floors were in between cleanings. The vacuum starts to pull pet hair and dust towards itself before you even run it over, which is super efficient. The FurFinder attachment was great for my couches and especially helpful for my stairs where my long-haired cat likes to hang out. I have never had a vacuum that was small enough and powerful enough for the plush carpet and narrow area. The vacuum is easy and fun to use, it maneuvers well and is easy to empty. The self standing design is convenient, especially if you don’t plan to mount it for charging. The only cons are that I have to switch hands a couple times while vacuuming large areas as it is a bit heavy. It also stalled on my thin area rug unless I was careful to keep the rug flat and prevent wrinkles from getting sucked into the vacuum. Overall, I would highly recommend this vacuum to anyone with pets, kids, both or neither!
New favorite appliance
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is quite possibly my new favorite appliance! As a Mom of 2 kiddos, 3 and under and a dog owner, I need something quick and easy but super efficient and this FurFinder fits the bill! It’s super lightweight and easy to use and push on my thick pile carpet, as well as my hardwood floors but I’m always impressed at the quality and how much it picks up. It even gets the short imbedded dog hairs in our carpet. I love the headlight and how bright it is, helping you to illuminate all the hair, dust and debris you want to remove. The self-standing design also gives it a small footprint and we love that we can tuck it into a corner or our hall closet making it super accessible for even small clean ups. We are also pleasantly surprised how long the charge lasts. We have a large 3100 square foot home and we can do a thorough vacuuming of our entire downstairs on the highest power level. I truly don’t have anything negative to say about this vacuum. We have multiple other vacuums and this is the one we’ve been reaching for time and time again.
Cute handy little vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This little vacuum is so nice to have around in a pinch! We also own another popular brand of stick vacuum that is much more expensive, and I feel like these are pretty comparable. I did like the hair finder, but didn’t find the brush roller to be any more or less effective on furniture than other stick vacs.
A Game Changer for Pet Hair and Everyday Messes!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and I was honestly blown away by how well this stick vacuum performed throughout my house. With a toddler and a dog that roams freely, I have been looking for something that actually works, and this delivered. It picked up everything from everyday dust to the sneaky pet hair that somehow finds its way into every corner. I tested the FurFinder tool in my son's room on his Nugget couch and carpet thinking it wouldn't be that bad…I was shocked at how much dog hair it pulled out. It definitely made a difference in my cleaning routine, especially for upholstery. The FurFinder Headlights were also a game changer. I had no idea how much hidden hair and debris was hanging out on my carpets, tile, and wood floors until I saw it all light up. It made such a difference, and I love knowing my floors are actually clean now! As for usability, this vacuum is super easy to maneuver, and the self-standing design is a huge plus. No more propping it awkwardly against furniture or laying it on the floor when I need to pause. The tangle-free brush roll is also a nice touch. I no longer have to fight with wrapped-up hair on the brush! My only small complaint is that I wish there were a button or lever to recline it instead of having to hold the bottom down with my foot and pull back on the handle. Not a dealbreaker at all, just a minor thing. Overall, this vacuum has been a solid addition to my cleaning routine, and I'd absolutely recommend it to anyone dealing with pet hair or just life messes in general.
Effective and Convenient
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great stick vacuum for this price point. My favorite features: Self-standing - super helpful for portability and for charging - really stable as well Headlights - this is extremely useful for both cleaning and finding missing toys and objects under furniture! Built in crevice tool - I love being able to pull this out and make it a hand vac without having to add this attachment Brush roll - I feel like it disengaged less than other brands I’ve used The three speeds are helpful for me as I have low pile washable rugs, high pile carpet, and hardwood. I do wish the highest speed had a little more suction on hardwoods. The fur tool wasn’t 100% effective on my big doggos short hair in our fabric couch, but it definitely made a dent - and I don’t know that any measure of vacuum would be able to clean it entirely. Overall is a great item for cleaning in a household with three kids and three dogs!
A must have for pets
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Do you have pets? How about multiple pets? And also have hardwood floors in your home? THEN YOU NEED THIS PRODUCT! As soon as it arrived, I tore open the package to see how it worked. I have 2 big German Shepherd dogs, and a very fluffy cat. Combined with mostly hardwood floors throughout my home, we have hair EVERYWHERE. I was in love from the moment I turned it on. It's not a big vacuum, but it has great power and suction. It performed excellently! My home, while not huge, is about 2500 square feet. And I can vacuum the downstairs in about 15 minutes. I also have baseboard heating around every single wall, so it's always a struggle to to get underneath them to get all the pet hair collected. Just the stick part fits perfectly to get all the hair. (See photo) I also really appreciate the removable battery with the option to perhaps purchase extras for future use. The wall mount was a fantastic addition, as well. (Although I haven't mounted it yet...I plan to! But right now it's sits nicely against the wall.) The FurFinder tool is awesome! And I very much appreciate the light feature. My living room is dark, so it very helpful to see the hair all over my couch. (Which was also a little embarrassing to see all that pet hair!) My couch has never looked to clean and tidy. And it's so quick and easy. I also tried the FurFinder on the one area rug I have in my formal living room. (One dog LOVES sitting in there) Same thing! It picked up the hair off the area rug with ease, making it look almost professionally cleaned. The vacuum itself was very easy to use right out of the box. As someone who enjoys simplicity, this was perfect. The different tools detach and attach smoothly. The only, very small, dislike I have is the dust cup is a tad small. (But anything bigger wouldn't work with this vacuum) But all that really means is I have to empty the cup more often, so not a deal breaker. Overall, this product is everything I didn't realize I needed. Again, having so many pets and hardwood floors, there are "pet hair tumble weeds" everywhere. But this vacuum is efficient and simple and is a must-have for anyone with pets in their home.
Effective vacuum for heavy shedding
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had the opportunity to test the PowerClean FurFinder just as my long-haired, heavily-shedding dog (a German Shepherd/hound mix!) began shedding his winter coat. If you live with a pet that leaves embedded fur on every surface they brush against, this vacuum may save your sanity. It was able to lift embedded dog hair from upholstery (couch, pillows) with minimal effort. Other advantages: assembly was quick and intuitive. I find the vacuum to be lightweight and easily maneuverable on both rugs and hardwood flooring. The headlight is very effective at highlighting all of the hair, dust, and toddler-related crumbs, which helps me achieve a better clean. Battery life is reasonable for my 1,600 sq ft house. While a longer run time would be ideal, the trade-off for the vacuum’s low weight and convenience is understandable, and I just charge it after each use. Overall I think this is a great find!
Bissel
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After taking out all the pieces, I found the assembly was east. After fully charging the vacuum,I tried it out on tile floor, area rugs with different thickness, and furniture with dog hair on it. My favorite feature is the light. When vacuuming my floor, it made it really easy to see the dog hair that so easily blends in. The attachment to vacuum furniture was also nice. Where it lacks is its suction capability on rugs. After going through a few passes I would find a streak of dog hair/dust on the carpet and would have to go over it again a couple time to make sure it was vacuumed up. That's why I took 1 star off. Otherwise the maneuverability was good, the light was great and battery life was ok. Great on floor, not so great on carpet.
Fun to Use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love using this vacuum on my hard floors and low pile rugs! It's fun to use, the headlights show all the dust and hair on the ground--it's very satisfying to go through and see it all removed. Cleaning under the bed is easy. I can get under my sons play kitchen. I don't have to move all the chairs in our dining room because this thing swivels well. I do wish the battery life was a bit longer but as it is, it has enough power for me to vacuum our entire first floor and still have some charge left. The battery can be taken out easily and charged. I do not have a pet but I shed like crazy and have long hair. The brush roll stays clean and this vacuum handles it like a champ! We do have family over who have dogs and the hand held vacuum (which also has headlights!) cleans our microfiber couch to perfection after they visit. Aside from the hand held vacuum and the upright mode you can also step on the lever on the base to pop the main brush off, this allows me to clean crevices and lift it up to get cobwebs in corners. This thing is so light (which is why I'm excusing the battery life), it glides along with ease. I genuinely enjoy cleaning with this vacuum. I do have a more powerful corded vacuum but it's so clunky that I'm not using it for anything other than higher pile carpets. The headlights make this one so satisfying to use and I love not being tethered to an outlet. I do not feel like it is lacking power. It rolls smoothly on my hardwood floors and I'm not worried about it damaging them. The roller brush doesn't get clogged up with hair. It's much quieter than my other vacuum. I think the blue color is pretty. I could go on! I'd recommend this vacuum to anyone who is looking for something convenient and easy to use. Want to make cleaning fun? Try it!
Great features but needs more power
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: the lights are amazing! Especially because I often vacuum at night and we have two cats, so lots of fur. It’s very satisfying to see the hair disappear. However, it’s not that efficient (see cons). The handheld with the upholstery attachment is great for our couches, which are microfiber. The long attachment for the handheld is great for getting under the couches. Cons: since I can see the hair, I can very clearly see that I need to do several passes to get it all. It doesn’t matter if I use the lower or higher power options, I still have the same issue. For a very low pile area rug, I found it kind of just pushes the hair around. This speaks to how well the brushless head works to dig up hair, but it’s just not powerful enough to suck it up. Lastly, if you don’t mount this to the wall, it is very wobbly on its own. I am torn, because I love having a cordless option for a quick run that I can do more often, but it just doesn’t have the power needed to get the area rugs clean. I have two other corded Bissel vacuums, which do have enough power for rugs, but no lights and very heavy. I have yet to find the perfect vacuum!
