Bissell 20334 Featherweight Stick Vacuum Lightweight Bagless Vacuum
[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'This little vacuum is small, lightweight but also MIGHTY! I actually purchased it for my son’s 2nd birthday because he’s always trying to vacuum with my larger, heavier Dyson and I don’t want him to break it and he struggles with it because it’s pretty heavy for a 2 year old. Well, I’ve now come to really enjoy this little Bissell. It’s so easy to use! It’s really light weight and so pulling it out to vacuum up things I notice here and there isn’t a big deal and so therefore I actually DO IT! Also, my son, believe it or not, vacuums up a lot while he’s “playing” with it. I simply don’t attach the longer handle while he uses it because it’s the perfect length for him without it. I recommend this vacuum for anyone with small children, anyone looking to take the hassle out of vacuuming up smaller jobs here and there and to those who perhaps have an injury or weakness that prohibits them from using heavier vacuums.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Where has this been my whole life?! It’s like a powerful Dustbuster with a long handle so perfect for little crumbs. I have hardwood floors throughout my house and only carpet in the kids bedrooms with 1 rug in the family room. I rarely brought out the vacuum because it was big and bulky. I would sweep multiple times a day and still felt like the floors were still dirty. I had a\nRoomba at one point but our dog decided it was an intruder and “took care of the problem”.\n\nPros:\n-lightweight (3.4lbs)\n-works on all flooring types\n-easy to empty\n-bagless\n-turns into handheld\n-attachment for crevices like between couch cushions.\n-not as loud as regular vacuum\n-sucks up items as large as Cheerios\n\nCons\n-short cord (15ft)\n-no hook or anything to hang it on a wall for storage\n-small collection chamber but it’s a little vacuum so it’s expected!\n\nAll in all, this is great for a quick run around the house and picks up crumbs, dog hair and snacks left behind by little ones!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'This little sweeper does an excellent job of picking up literally everything, dog hair, dust, little pieces of debris etc. The suction is powerful gets into corners beautifully and the filter is very easy to change and clean. I am especially amazed at the amount of dog hair it picks up.

But it's great! I bought it for work in a preschool classroom. We use it everyday over the carpet and tiled areas. It picks up really well and is so light its easy to move around, push, and swivel. My co worker liked it so much she bought one for her home. Need something light that works - this is it. Oh, and not having the brush has been great. We don't have to spend time every few days cutting all that hair out that would otherwise be wrapped around it. Wasn't sure it would work well without the brush, but it does."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': "PROS:\n-Picks up litter and pet fur\n-Lightweight and compact\n-Great price\n\nCONS:\n-Smaller than I thought it would be\n-Wish cord was a little longer\n\nPlease mark this review as 'helpful' it it assisted you in making a decision!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "It appears that this model 2300 is being phased out. Amazon does not mention this. Amazon calls it a special for Prime members. You cannot get the replacement filter, bissell part number 1611508 or 1611500, from Bissell, Amazon, or in Google search. Bissell and Amazon claim the filter is washable and does not need to be replaced. But the filter is too fragile to be washed more than a couple of times. If the stuff in your dirt cup is mostly very fine carpet fibers or other light- weight dust, it sticks to the dirt cup and filter and flies all over when you try to empty the cup. I would return it except that I found all this out by using it and so it's too late to return."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I was very skeptical about this little vacuum cleaner especially once I removed it from the box and put it together because it looks cheaply made. Based on other reviews, I thought I would give it a try anyway. Wow!..I was very surprised it worked very well! I ended up vacuuming my entire living room, kitchen, 1/2 bath, yes, it does floors as well. It didn't feel like a burdensome chore because I didn't have to Lug around a heavy vacuum cleaner like our other one we have. This was super light and easy to maneuver. I thought I would be selling my heavier and more clunky Bissell vacuum cleaner but I'll keep it because it has the hose that can reach my ceiling and tight corners where this can't. I have to agree with a few others that the cord is a bit shorter but not an issue hooking up to a closer outlet."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I\'ve had this for about 6 months and i loved it while it lasted. I need to replace the filter and THEY DON"T MAKE THEM ANYMORE! Why is this a special for Prime customers if the model is being phased out and filters are unavailable. I bought the filters that "most people buy with this product" and they are too small! I can\'t even sell this at a garage sale. SOOOOOOOO DISAPPOINTED!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I like this stick vacuum a lot. It replaces an old Bissell stick vac I\'ve had for a good 15 years (and still works fine). The detachable hand vac and crevice tool are useful for getting into tight corners, and the vac is easy to take apart for cleaning an reassembling. It handles well and is noticeable lighter and more maneuverable than my old stick vac. It got my vinyl kitchen floor clean in no time.\n\nTwo minor gripes and one major one are the reason I gave this 3 stars instead of 5: (1) While the 15\'\' cord is plenty long enough for my small kitchen, the winding handle is inadequate. Gathering up surplus cord in one hand in order to vacuum with the other is a pain. 2) It would be nice if the crevice tool, which is easy to lose, could be attached somehow. (3) Major gripe: other reviewers are right when they say you can\'t get a replacement filter for the very popular 2033 on Amazon--Amazon, what\'s up with that??--which is the main reason 28% of reviewers give the 3-in-1 Featherweight one-star review. Not only that, but replacement filters are so hard to track down on the Bissell website itself that I was about to give up when I stumbled on the page by accident. The cost in time and effort to accomplish such a simple task is the main reason I felt I had to deduct two stars for an otherwise excellent product. (Amazon doesn\'t allow external URLs, but if you search for "1611508," you\'ll get to the right place on the Bissell website. The replacement filters cost $3.95 plus shipping.)\n\nUPDATE #1 (April, 2020): Ignore gripe #1; I didn\'t see one of the winding handles the first time I used the vac. My bad. I\'m keeping the 3 stars, though. Maybe it will get Bissell to notice that it\'s a huge pain to try to find the right product parts on its website.\n\nUPDATE #2 (August, 2020): After 4 months of use, I\'m changing this from a 3 to a 5-star review. My objection to how hard it is to find replacement filters--not to mention the time consumed by trying to find out how to find them!--still stands. (HEAR THAT, MR. BISSELL??) This is an excellent product and I\'m glad I kept it. As many reviewers have noted, the filters are small, especially for the amount of dust the vac picks up, and I live alone and use it only in my small kitchen. But they\'re easy to clean: just put a dirty filter in warm water to cover, add a bit of liquid detergent or liquid soap, wait a few minutes, and swish it around; it comes out like new. The filters dry fast, but if you have a replacement filter (they seem very durable, but I recommend stocking up anyway), you can change it immediately instead of waiting for it to dry.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I’ve owned this vacuum a little under a year now and it’s got to be one of the best investments of my life. It’s lightweight and powerful, I use it on both carpet and hardwood and it will pick up anything, even liquids lol. It’s really easy to maintain, just unclip, open, empty, and clean the filter. I used to wash the filter down but lately I’ve been just wiping it down with a napkin and it works like the day I’ve bought it. I really can’t think of any cons about this vacuum, maybe that the suction is so powerful, especially after cleaning the filter, It sucks and grips onto carpets too much, might need to use some strength. My dad always uses my vacuum and his 400 dollar Hoover is sitting in the corner collecting dust.'}]
