Loving My Clean Floors Thanks to the Bissell Multi-Surface Expert Vacuum

When my husband and I first lived together, we rented a basement apartment. The majority of the floor space was carpeted and a vacuum became a necessity. My inlaws had recently purchased a Bissell vacuum and swore by it, so we did the same thing. I still remember the first test that we did with it by cleaning the floors with the little mini vacuum that we had and then seeing all of the dirt and dust being lifted out of the carpet right before our own eyes. It was the very first bagless vacuum that I had ever owned or even used and I loved it. That vacuum has now seen better days. It has been used to clean up many messes and I have been testing out the Bissell Multi-Surface Expert Vacuum to see if it will replace our older vacuum.

I haven’t used a canister vacuum before, and I have to say that it definitely does have its advantages, like it isn’t as heavy during use. This vacuum has what I would call extreme suction power. Check out the dry rice spill that it cleaned up with ease:

I found the vacuum extremely easy to put together, especially considering that is typically a job that I save for my hubby. I also enjoy the easy of use of this particular vacuum including the adjustable height on the wand and the easy push cord retractor and power button. The swivel feature on the head allows for easy cleaning around all of the MANY obstacles that exist in my house.

While this particular vacuum is meant for Multi-Surfaces, do note that it doesn’t not have a beater bar. Having said that, however, the suction power is exceptional! We had a liquid spill on our couch this week and after I had what I thought was successfully patted out all of the liquid, poured baking soda on it and set it in the sun to dry for 2 hours, this vacuum sucked up more liquid that had settled deeper into the foam of the cushion. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I noticed that it had sucked liquid to the surface AND had vacuumed up the baking soda with ease. Do note that this vacuum is not meant for wet spills!

  10. Kirsten G. says:

    Is it really loud or quiet. Two of my 4 munchkins are terrified of the vacuum!

    • I have never heard of a quiet vacuum, but that being said, it is definitely one of the less noisy ones that I have used and I have used and tested quite a few! My son used to be terrified of the vacuum! I would have him go to a different floor and put headphones on while I used it. He thought the vacuum was going to suck him up, poor guy. The noise also really bothered him as he is EXTREMELY sensitive to noise.

    I do like the sound of this Bissell vacuum. I didn’t grow up with canister vacuums but I have used them most of my life and find them so much easier to handle than an upright one.
