Bissell1782 Pet Hair Eraser Cordless Hand and Car Vacuum

I'll start by saying I have multiple other vacuums, all sorts and sizes. Now I could certainly use one of mine, but I wanted a new vac specifically for my bedroom. (No other dirt, just to gage what dirt is actually in my room, my bedding, mattress, curtains etc.) I have to say that that I was TRULY AMAZED at what it picked up - especially the really fine stuff that you can't really see. Yes, there was some cat hair and debris, but it really took cleaning my room to a whole new level. So, if you want this for a specific area, you will be pleasantly surprised. It does have excellent suction (I hope that doesn't fade out over time).It's fast, efficient, the size is just right with the power head on. Noise could be just a bit quieter, but I'm not complaining. The ease of use was as simple as can be.Note, the filter totally comes out (you have to twist it out). Small amounts of hair did get into the roller, so I'm not sure how it would do with lots of hair. I only had a little. I cleaned the roller bristles out manually - but it wasn't bad.I would have liked to see other colors but I'm ok with this I guess. I did also purchase insurance for 3 years in case it breaks or suction diminishes. I might have to get a second one just for my car now! Would be excellent for use in a garage, on general messy areas like in front of a couch, or by laundry where lint might build up, or even cleaning out a dryer vent. Has a million uses. All thumbs up! (If I vac up a lot of hair and the roller gets tangled, I'll report back on this.)

The media could not be loaded. Personally, I would have never bought Bissel until I borrowed one from a friend! It takes a lot to impress me, and quite frankly amaze me! I immediately ordered the exact model! :-) The way, even old cat hair that was stuck and matted into my couch, sucked up without effort! If you are a pet owner, this is a must have! The ease of use along with cleaning simplicity, and of course, the sheer function it really does what it’s supposed to do! I am not paid to say this, but maybe I should be because it’s that good. I would be the company spokes person! ENJOY!!

I made the mistake of previously purchasing the insanely expensive Dyson handheld... which promptly died in a few months, was replaced, died again and then fell out of warranty. The reason I went with the Dyson originally was that having a powered rotating brush was important to me as the air rotated brushes are generally useless. I also wanted something light, cordless and easy to use. I wish I'd found this little vac first.For me a little vac like this is for cleaning up quick messes, cleaning my stairs, and vacuuming my furniture. This vac does all that, easily, on a single charge. It's powerful and lasts a long while - I haven't timed it but I think 20 or so minutes with the brush in use. My only complaint is that I wish it had a removable battery. The battery is built in, which means when the battery dies (which it will in a couple years) the vac becomes useless. Luckily, it's cheap enough that I won't mind having to replace it considering it's 1/4 of the price of the next best option.I've seen a few bad reviews concerning the battery going dead immediately on first use. This is just chance... a certain amount of batteries will have issues; this goes for anything you buy with a battery. If it works it will continue to work. If it goes bad immediately, that's just how it goes and you can exchange it. Don't judge things based on that battery criteria... Also keep in mind like any other battery you should not keep it plugged in all the time.

I bought this as a used option on Amazon so I don’t truly know how old it is. It was completely dead when we opened it. After reading the manual it said to charge for 5 hours to obtain a fully charged battery. Once fully charged we started vacuuming underneath the couch cushions, then onto the stairs. The suction was great while it lasted! But halfway up the stairs, it slowly lost power then died. We had about 15 minutes of good use out of it before having to put it back on the charger. Obviously we weren’t expecting to clean the whole house with it, but 5 hours of charge for 15 minutes of use seems ridiculous. Will still continue to use it but keep in mind it’s best for very small and fast jobs.

I’ve had this for 5 months and I love it. I luse the motorized attachment every morning to lightly vacuum my bed because my dog and cat sleep on it every night and shed like crazy! It’s a good size, not heavy, charges in roughly 3 hours, its not loud enough to bother my baby, and the other attachments are handy. This makes keeping up with shedding fast and easy!

I purchased this Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Cordless Hand Vacuum in mid-January 2025. I have one medium-sized dog and two cats. I bought this hand vac for my wood stairs and to catch the occasional furry tumbleweed in between the regular 2x/week vacuuming of the house with my upright Oreck (which I can't recommend highly enough -- still going strong after 25+ years).After two months, I started having issues with this Bissell hand vacuum not maintaining power. It would run maybe 10 seconds and then you would start to hear it slowly lose steam and die. Press the button again, it powered up for a few seconds, then died again. Mind you, I only used this maybe once or twice a week, for no more than 5-10 minutes each time, and would empty it and clean the filter after each use.I contacted customer service, they had me send a video showing the problem, and within a few days a replacement vacuum was in the mail to me. Great!I charged the new vacuum per the instructions and this time AFTER JUST ONE USE (!) I'm having the exact same problem with the replacement. The vacuum won't maintain power.This time I'm done. I'm not even going to attempt to contact customer service. Instead I'll chalk it up to a bad product and check out similar items from other brands. I must admit it's a bummer. I've had positive experiences with Bissell products up until now, but this vacuum is a total dud.

This hand vacuum works great on little and big cleanups.
