Customer reviews for Bissell PowerClean FurFinder Corded Stick Vacuum with FurFinder Headlights forPowerful and Convenient with a Few Trade Offs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Bissell PowerClean FurFinder Corded vacuum does a great job handling everyday messes like pet hair, crumbs, and larger debris thanks to its strong suction power. I was especially impressed with the self-standing design—it’s very convenient once you realize it can stand on its own. The built-in headlights and swivel head help spot hidden dirt, though I wish the lights were more white than yellow, as they can look a bit off on hard floors. What I love most is the power and long cord. I thought the cord would be annoying, but it actually made cleaning easier since I didn’t have to keep unplugging it. Compared to my previous cordless vacuum, this one feels much more reliable. A couple downsides: the handle can feel a bit heavy, especially in handheld mode, and the dust bin is on the smaller side. However, emptying it mid-clean is still easier than stopping to recharge a battery. Overall, it’s a strong, dependable vacuum with a few minor drawbacks.
Small and Mighty
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The corded Bissell PowerClean FurFinder has really impressed me! It is super lightweight and easy to maneuver. The front light provides an amazing view of what needs to get cleaned up. The vacuum transitions easily from hardwood to carpet without a hitch. It also does a great job cleaning grooved entrance rugs (see picture), and the cord is so long!! I can easily vacuum my entire downstairs from one central plug! I have 3 children (5, 3, 1 years old) so the amount of crumbs on our floor is impressive - this vacuum cleans our crumbs in the first swipe. We also have a dog, and it is springtime in Pennsylvania, which means a lot of dirt from outside, coming inside. I am turning to this vacuum over my others because of how effective it is. One thing that I love is how powerful the suction is on the front of the vacuum head. When it is pushed up against a wall or cabinet, it really gets it clean! One thing I have found to not be super intuitive is getting the dirt cup back into place. It’s easy to take out and take apart to dump but every time I try to get it back in, it takes me a few tries before I figure it out. I’m more than willing to patiently figure this out though since it does such a good job. I am really impressed with how light weight but mighty this vacuum is!
A Decent Vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Bissell PowerClean FurFinder Corded vacuum is a good vacuum, but not a great one. The Bissell PowerClean FurFinder Corded vacuum performs well when it comes to pet fur, long hair, crumbs, leaves and such tracked in from outside. But I wouldn’t say that its power or performance was anything outstanding. The vacuum does have many nice features, such as lights to illuminate the floor to see any debris, the ability to stand on its own, the lightweight design, and a long cord. The lights are so helpful to ensure a spot isn’t missed! And the long cord and ability for the vacuum to be free standing is so helpful as you move from room to room or move furniture. My favorite feature of this vacuum was the face it was lightweight, making it easy to handle like a cordless vacuum, but not having to worry about battery power running out or impacting performance. Overall, it’s a good vacuum. It does the job well and is a good value for the price.
Thank you for your thoughtful review, Erin! We’re glad to hear the PowerClean® FurFinder™ is handling pet hair and everyday messes well, and that features like the headlights, long cord, and self‑standing design are making cleanup easier. We appreciate your honest perspective on performance and value—it’s feedback like this that helps us continue improving our machines for busy households.
Impressive pet hair pick up
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This lightweight vacuum was very easy to maneuver, even with the cord. The cord was long enough that I only had to unplug it two or three times to clean most of my downstairs. The built-in lights were a huge help in spotting all the little bits of dirt and debris on the floor. I have two dogs and four kids, so my house gets messy quickly - pet hair, crumbs, paper scraps, dirt from outside, everything. My youngest is 6 months old, so it’s especially important that the floors are clean enough for her to be rolling around on. I was honestly shocked at how effective this vacuum was at picking up pet hair! The photo of the canister was taken right after our cleaners had already cleaned the floors, which says a lot. It is a little on the louder side, but not overly so. Overall, it’s compact, easy to store, and does a great job tackling everyday messes and especially pet hair.
Extra Powerful and Extra Light Vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow. As a current Bissell PowerClean owner (of a cord-free version) I was skeptical that the corded option would provide a significant enough difference to be worth the investment (and hassle) of a cord. I was wrong!!! The suction is noticeably stronger and honestly the cord is so long, I think to clean my entire house I have to plug / re-plug maybe 2-3 times total? But so worth it. I can tell that this option is for when I really want a deep and powerful clean, not just a light clean-up before guests like the cord-free options! I attached a photo but I am a highly sensitive, allergen-ridden mama to a young (and messy) toddler so I clean constantly. I vacuum at least once or twice a week. Using the vacuum today on his play rug, I could not BELIEVE how much dust, hair and dirt was already accumulated again from last week. What a relief to have that all sucked up! Overall I am super happy with this vacuum and can assure you, the cord is NOT an issue but a power-boosting PLUS!
Everyday Vacuum for Kid Messes and Pet Hair
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With three kids and a dog, I found the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder helpful to keep up with pet hair and kid crumbs. It is heavier on top than expected. My arm was tired when doing a full pass through the house. That said, it maneuvers really smoothly and was especially helpful getting under the table and around all those highchair legs where crumbs seem to gather nonstop. I was surprised how much I like the lights! I didn’t think this feature would matter to me much, but they really do make a difference. It is really helpful seeing all the crumbs and pet hair I might otherwise miss. Particularly when the kids run the vacuum themselves. Suction has been decent for everyday needs. It handles hard floors and most rugs well, although I did have an issue with one of my looser rugs causing it to shut down. Not a deal breaker, but something to be aware of. The parts are all easy to swap out and the extra tools are nice for smaller messes. The cord is extra long and reached all around the house. The vacuum stands on its own despite being top heavy. Emptying and cleaning the canister is straightforward, though it took me a minute to figure out how to get everything put back together the first time. Overall, it’s not perfect, but it’s easy to use, and does a good job keeping up with everyday messes.
Excellent for Everyday Cleaning
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having used several kinds of stick and traditional vacuums on my wood kitchen flooring, I found them to be not as effective as I had hoped. The traditional ones had power, but often were too large to get between chair legs and other obstacles easily. The stick vacuums I've tried have all been cordless, which was handy at times, but a pain when they'd have consistently low batteries or would die mid-job. However, this hybrid (stick vacuum, but with a cord) has allowed enough power to be delivered while still keeping my vacuum cleaner light and easy to use. As you can see from my pictures, it handled the everyday crumbs (like toast crumbs) with ease on the hard surfaces, and can even tackle larger items (like whole almonds and cough drops wrappers) on my carpet. (The lighter dots in my picture were yogurt drops from that morning that will require a mop to clean.) The self-standing design is helpful during the cleaning process, but the vacuum doesn't have enough weight versus its height to make it practical to leave standing, especially since I have young children running around. I do store it in a closet. Thankfully, it doesn't take up much space, so allowing it to lean up against a corner isn't a problem. Though the cord is generously long, allowing me to vacuum several rooms without switching outlets, it all can be wrapped up easily on the cord storage hooks, which is very much appreciated. The lights can be very helpful when vacuuming in a low light situation, or in the evening when I don't feel like turning on the overhead lights, though on some surfaces, the light can cause a bit of a glare. It is useful for vacuuming underneath furniture, and the head of the vacuum is short enough that it can reach farther under my couches than my traditional vacuum. This vacuum truly delivers the best of both worlds: power that doesn't require a recharge and a lightweight design that allows for moving it easily throughout the house.
LOVE this stick vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always wanted a versatile stick vacuum but have been underwhelmed by the cordless rechargeable ones in the past because they never seem to be as powerful and the battery never lasts. That is why I was amped this one was corded! If you want a wake up call about how much your other vacuums are missing, grab this Bissell PowerClean FurFinder Corded corded stick vacuum that is modular and versatile to use all over your house! The headlight let me know what I was missing, and the power to pick up from hard or carpeted floors was incredible. With pets and two young kids, I've used this vacuum every single day since opening the box. Not only is it a great stick vacuum but it has a ton of attachment types and turns into a handheld vacuum that does just as an incredible job on couches, blinds, curtains, and other daily used surfaces! As it is a self-standing lightweight design, I've got it in a space where I can conveniently grab it plug it in and away I go. For the price it is a no-brainer! I have a number of Bissell products and they've never disappointed.
Convenient and easy to use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a mom of two young kids, one of whom tends to leave a trail of crumbs whenever she eats. I have found the Bissell PowerClean FurFinder Corded incredibly convenient for a quick clean up after a snack or meal. With the ability to remove the extension my kids are able to use the vacuum by themselves, and they think that it is fun having a vacuum their size. I was impressed with how well it picked up the popcorn mess off my carpet and how handy the lighted head is for when I vacuum under my dining table. My 5 year old was even able to vacuum the stairs on his own. I have really long hair so I have to clean the roller brush on vacuums almost every time I use one. The way the power head is designed on this PowerClean FurFinder it's a breeze to clean the hair off and clean. I was also impressed with the length of the cord, with the lightweight design I expected it to be much shorter but I was able to get to multiple rooms without having to unplug it, which is a must when you have crumb trails throughout the house. I still need my larger vacuum for the deeper cleaning but this is a time saver for all of the little messes throughout the day.
A Game Changer For Busy Homes With Pets
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ll be honest, when I first received this vacuum, I was a little bummed because I had just vacuumed my house. But I decided to try it anyway, and I was honestly shocked at how much dirt and pet hair it still picked up. The built-in headlights literally called out everything I missed, and it was kind of crazy (and satisfying) to watch it all disappear. The headlights are probably one of my favorite features. They make you want to keep vacuuming because you can actually see every little bit of dirt, especially in spots you’d normally overlook. And the self-standing design…wow. I have limited space, so being able to just stand it anywhere without leaning it against something or installing a holder is a huge plus. I used to have a cordless stick vacuum, and the most frustrating part was the battery dying before I could finish cleaning. With this one being corded, I can clean my whole house without stopping and still enjoy all the benefits of a stick vacuum. It’s lightweight, easy to maneuver, quick to use, and super easy to store. I also love the color and overall design. The dirt container looked small at first, but it actually holds a lot, even with dog hair, cat hair, and kids making messes all day. The suction is great, and it handles everything really well. Overall, I genuinely love everything about this vacuum and would definitely recommend it, especially for busy households with pets and kids.
