Title: Excellent Performer& Value
Product review: This is another really good machine from Bissel.Powerful (all 12amp vacuums are strong) with a useful hose and attachments. I especially like the cyclonic cup system and the way you can remove the cup and all the chambers for cleaning (I do it in the tub and use the shower nozzle). That's a must with this machine ... keep it clean or it won't work well. I think this is the frustration some people have with these bagless vacuums.Filters should be cleaned each time it's used ... and it takes a few minutes plus drying time.The turbo brush works well ... but you can't work it too hard or you will get the `melting' that others here complain about. You need to have a light touch to keep the roller spinning at high speed and if you are using this thing for more than 20 minutes at a time, you need to give it a rest.All of these consumer vacuums are plastic (even the ones costing $400+) so be reasonable when using it. If it's melting, the user is pushing it too hard.
