Customer reviews for Bissell CleanView Max Lift-Off Upright Vacuum with HEPA Sealed Allergen System forClunky but effective
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum looks pretty nice and is easily used in different ways by removing the wand from the base or using its attachments. It is quite effective at picking up debris, including pet hair from fabric surfaces and rugs. Using the turbo max attachment was super helpful on my furniture. The little extension wand for narrow spaces was not long enough for me, but I did appreciate the brush head on it to help get pet hair off of things. The ability to change the settings for different floor surfaces, and for whether you use the roller brush in the base, was also very helpful. It was very easy to detach and empty the container into the trash. What makes me disappointed in the vacuum is how clunky it felt to me. It is definitely heavy and was a workout to use it for an extended time. It is pretty easy to turn, but the vacuum tends to go back into the vertical position and I then have to manually adjust it back into an angled position for maneuvering the vacuum. When using the wand detached, the hose was very stiff and didn't want to extend, which then meant that unless I held the vacuum in place it wanted to pull over and follow the wand. It actually did this during my first use and fell over onto my ankle, which was very painful due to the weight. Overall, I just found it a lot heavier and more difficult to maneuver than my old canister vacuum, which was disappointing. However, I do appreciate that it seems very effective, especially with picking up pet hair from fabric surfaces. So, I give a middling rating to this vacuum.
Thanks for your detailed review! We’re glad to hear the CleanView® Max Lift-Off® performed well on pet hair and fabric surfaces, and that you found the attachments and settings helpful. We understand the weight and hose stiffness made it harder to use comfortably—especially during extended cleaning. Your feedback is valuable, and we’ll share it with our team.

Heavy duty vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum is definitely heavy duty (in its feel and its power). We used it on everything from high to low pile area rugs, hardwood floors, and tile. I have 2 dogs who shed a TON, and 2 young kids who leave a trail of crumbs and little bits of paper everywhere they go. This vacuum was able to pick it all up. I like that there are buttons to switch it between hard flooring (brush not spinning) and rugs/carpet, as well as how low or high it is depending on pile height. The only 2 negative things for me are it’s relatively heavy, and because it’s so bulky it couldn’t get very far under our couch/beds. Overall would recommend.
Just okay
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used this on carpet, rugs and hard floors. We have 2 cats and 2 dogs and 3 kids with lots of hair. Pros- This vacuum is very easy to put together. It is very light weight, which is great for moving it from different levels. This is easy to empty. Main cons are that due to it being light weight it just feels cheaply made, feels like it will break very easily. Suction is mediocre, I feel like I need to go over the area 3 times to get all the hair up.
Thanks for sharing your experience – it’s great to hear the vacuum’s lightweight design and easy assembly worked well for your busy household. That said, we’re sorry to hear the suction didn’t meet your expectations, especially with pets and kids in the mix. We know how important strong pickup is in a high-traffic home. If you’re open to it, our team would be happy to walk through a few tips or check if there’s anything affecting performance. You can reach us anytime at support.bissell.com – we’re here to help.
Clean view
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm thrilled to share my amazing experience with this vacuum! Previously, I was using a high-end vacuum that my husband had invested in, but unfortunately, it didn't quite meet my expectations. Thankfully, this new vacuum arrived just in time, and I'm absolutely loving it! The detachable design makes it incredibly easy to clean my ceiling vents, which is a game-changer for my theater ceilings. The vacuum's ability to pick up everything from small dust particles to larger debris is truly impressive. I also appreciate the convenient on/off feature for the brush, which makes transitioning from carpets to hard surfaces a breeze. While it may be slightly heavy to push on carpet, the exceptional cleaning power makes it well worth the extra effort. As a busy parent of four kids, two dogs, and one cat, I'm constantly battling dirt and dust, but this vacuum has been a lifesaver!
Really great and versatile
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am in the process of moving so my home is a literal chaos zone. Between packing, sorting, up and down attics and basements there’s been quite a bit of floor debris to keep up with. In addition I struggle with allergies so the extra dust has not been helpful. I also wanted something to clean door jams and window sills with so to not leave the new owner with a mess. This vacuum covers all those territories and more. I currently have a mixture of hardwood floors and area rugs with minimal carpeting. I love the versatility to set between high pile and low pile/ bare floors for the different jobs as well as the maneuvering around tighter spaces . The cord length is awesome as I can do a large area without having to re plug in different outlets. The feature of the lift off canister was great for vacuuming mattresses as well as window sills. The hose attachments are also fantastic allowing me to get into tight corners and loosen some dirt that my previous vacuum wouldn’t touch . Before using this I vacuumed with my previous vacuum to see if it picked up much that my old one may have missed and was impressed with the results . I would definitely recommend this vacuum to anyone who has a variety of jobs to tackle without having to use multiple devices.
compact but powerful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our house has two dogs and a preschooler with a mix of carpet, rugs, and hardwood. I vacuumed nearly every day with a different upright, corded vacuum and was shocked when I vacuumed for the first time with this vacuum and the bin was nearly full with dirt and hair. It cleans so deeply and powerfully! I am so impressed with the way the bristles clean the carpet and remove all the hairs without damaging the fuzziness of the flooring. It has a simple button to switch between plush carpet and low carpet/bare floor which works great for my multi-surface home. The wand is extremely easy to release and has excellent attachments perfect for furniture and tight corners. The vacuum itself is large enough for tackling the size of my home, but compact enough to store easily in my laundry closet. I can see through the clear bin to know when to empty it (although that is my least favorite feature - the release button is uncomfortably close to the opening of the bin) and the cord was a good length to clean across an entire room without having to move the plug to a different outlet. This vacuum is by far the best dirt and pet-hair removing vacuum I’ve used!
Max Lift Off Vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Max Lift-Off Vacuum has been a game changer in my battle against both cat and dog hair! Not only was it easy to assemble (less than five minutes), and easy to maneuver (my 6-year-old can help vacuum), it has great power! After vacuuming with my old vacuum first, I then used the Max Lift-Off and the canister was full! The attachments also work great on my furniture. The size is also perfect - not to bulky, and easy to store.
Pet and kid home approved
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, I am very happy with the CleanView Max Lift-Off vacuum. We have a full household with young kids, dogs, and cats that are constantly leaving dirt and fur everywhere, so we were definitely able to put this vacuum to the test. The first thing to note is that the power and versatility of this vacuum are fantastic! I had zero issues switching from hard floors, to rugs, to carpet , and even baseboards and trim throughout the house. I felt like my rugs and carpets got thoroughly cleaned, and didn’t notice any debris or pet hair left behind (which is of huge importance when considering a vacuum in a home with kids and pets). The “Lift-Off” feature was a huge perk when it came to vacuuming the stairs and doing “dusting”, or vacuuming hard to reach areas. That being said, I did feel that the vacuum is a tiny bit bulkier and heavier than other vacuums I’ve had. Nothing that wasn’t manageable, but I did feel like I had to use a little extra push when vacuuming carpets. This is the only reason I gave the product 4 instead of 5 stars. Definitely not a deal breaker though. I’d take a slightly heavier/bulkier vacuum that cleans deeper and better than a lighter weight one any day!
Great Vacuum to Tackle Toddler and Pet Messes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very sleek vacuum with a lot of power! Our old stick vacuum was not cutting it for our current needs... Crumby baby, chaotic toddler, and two shedding animals. This takes care of all of our messes without requiring a lot of effort. As a busy mom, I appreciate being able to do cleaning tasks quickly and without a lot of fuss. Using and then emptying this thing is a breeze and it goes pretty effortlessly from carpet to tile to hardwood so I'm not constantly fiddling with attachments and settings. We go to the park and the beach a lot and, thanks to an abundance of oaks in our area, pollen is a major headache. All of these things inevitably drag in lots of small bits that can be hard to get out of the floors but this has handled it all so well. We are big fans! This is a great little vacuum!
Me encanto
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Reseña rápida: CleanView Max Lift-Off Me sorprendió desde el primer momento: tiene un diseño moderno, robusto y fácil de manejar. Su poder de succión es excelente, ideal para eliminar desde polvo fino hasta pelos de mascota sin esfuerzo. La probé en pisos de madera, alfombras y tapetes, y el rendimiento fue parejo en todas las superficies. Lo que más me gustó fue su sistema Lift-Off: poder separar el tanque y usarlo como aspiradora portátil fue un game changer para limpiar rincones, escaleras y el auto. ¡Práctica, potente y versátil!
