Bissell Cleanview Deluxe Corded Handheld Vacuum, 47R51

I really want to like this vacuum more because it works so well on getting pet hair out of the carpet (I have a rabbit). This is the 3rd vacuum Ive bought to try to help clean up her pen and the wide mouth without any tubes helps with the stray bits of hay too. But the vent on the sides blow up the dust/debris before you can get to it. Its pretty frustrating! Luckily I read reviews knew to put some paper around the vents to re-direct the air (but it felt like it was getting kind of hot). I thought the reviews might be exaggerating, but its strong enough to blow stuff around on carpet and it was especially bad on our hardwood floors. Someone suggested using the tube attachments to get around this, but I want to use the rubber for the hair and I found that hay kept getting stuck in the tube when I tried on a different vacuum--maybe a problem particular to me. Update: I taped cereal boxes around the vents to make them point up and that helps it not blow away fur/dust not make it get hot. I wish it had been designed better at the start!

5.006/18/2018 SO FAR SO GOOD: EXCELLENT HAND VAC FOR PET FUR PICKUP Best Uses Pet Hair on furniture and other pet sleeping areas Our cat and two dogs are allowed on a few pieces of furniture. We have looked long and far for a dustbuster hand vac which actually will pick up pet hair and lint without damaging the surface of the furniture and which has the suction to pick up all the hair. When our latest iteration of a hand vac died, we did some research and discovered Bissell. After reading the reviews we could find, we settled on the Deluxe Corded Hand Vac - 47R51. We were concerned that one review said the filter became clogged and had to be replaced often. Even so, we decided to order the 47R51 and we are so glad we did. It picks up pet hair far more easily and more quickly than any hand vac we have ever owned. We do not understand the criticism because we are able to empty the pet hair quickly and easily. We have only been using the 47R51 for three weeks, so our experience is limited. However, I would buy another one today is we were to break the one we currently have. We are not sure how or why it works so well, but it does.

Product arrived this morning. We needed something for doing our carpeted stairs as oposed to lugging the upright beater Hoover over them. We thought this might be the ticket? It was and is! Just a great little easy to handle and powerful vaccum. Found it works best on the carpeted steps using the hose and the flat suction nozzle. We have a little dog. It picked his shed fur also, Very pleased!

I use this for my car. The rubber attachment is really good at picking up pet hair and the hose is small enough to get between the tight spots. Suction power is better than I expected.

I bought this little sucker based on the other reviews. I actually started out looking at the one without the additional attachments. This one is the same model, just a different color, and for the small amount of money required for the attachments, it was a no brainer. Heres the background: a) I have light colored carpeting throughout my house, and b) I have a black dog who sheds like crazy. I pick up a lot of black hair from my carpets with my regular vacuum cleaner, but have always hated doing the stairway. Lets face it, none of those stair tools ever manage to get all of the hair off of the steps, which makes my stairs look forever hairy. This is the exception! I love the flexible nozzle - you can bend it to fit the front of the stair and into the crevices, and after a few minutes that stair looks pristine! Lets face it, its not a miracle worker, and it is going to take a minute or two per stair, so that adds up. But thats no more time than those stair tools take, and even then you cant get all of the hair up. I bought the product mainly for my stairs, but it appears to work wonders on furniture as well. The additional tools come in handy for that, too. If you have one area where something dry spilled, this would be a good option to pick it up instead of dragging out the big vacuum. All in all, I could not be more pleased! Thank you Bissell, for letting my stairs look amazing again!

Im a full time RVer so space is a premium. Reg. vac is too bulky and battery powered hand-held vac lacks power. This is small, lightweight A/C powered vac is perfect. Plenty of suction to easily hold this 2 board. The Bissel attachments included are great for fabrics, rugs, carpets, crevices. Not included are extension wands, floor nozzle and soft brush duster. So, I decided to buy a generic package of these. The generic floor nozzle with extension wands work great as a floor vac esp. hard surfaces, and the generic duster works for shelving, ceiling corners and tight areas. The only negative is I wish Bissel included these attachments with their vac.

This little vacuum has power! It is by far the best Ive ever used for getting pet hair off the couch. We have 2 dogs and 1 cat and they all get on the furniture. It sucks up all the hair. I love the long cord also. It works really well.

The vacuum has great suction power, its light weight and long power-cord makes it convenient to use. Its filters ridged structure is effective in catching dirt but quite tedious to clean. I wish that its accessories includes a round vacuum brush (such as showed in the photo), but unfortunately Bissel does not make one. To make the matter worse the vacuums hose attachment opening uses a non-standard 1-5/16 thus preventing use of plug-n-play aftermarket accessories & adapters. My only viable solution is to find a slightly larger diameter brush 1-3/8 and sanded down 1/16 with a Dremel rotating sander.

Love this little light weight vacuum for the car and RV. Lots of suction for every day cleaning. Nice long cord. My only gripe was there was no brush attachment which I needed for the car. The hose coupling is a non standard size. So I ended up buying a generic three brush set on Amazon which was close in size for attachment to the hose end. A couple of minutes with a heat gun to soften the hose end and I was able to insert the brush into the hose while still maintaining compatibility with the original tools. Problem solved.

Nice power and the perfect size
