Review 1 for Bissell Lift-Off Multi-Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum, 89Q9

Great Vacuum

The Bissell Lift-Off Vacuum, 89Q9 met all of my expectations. Does great on Dog hair. Easy to empty and the lift-off feature is great. The only complant that I would have is that you must hold up the cord with your left hand while vacuuming and the cord is on the wrong side of the unit(right) which would be much easier to control if the cord was on the left side.

I vacuumed my new carpet and was surprised to see all the dust and dirt it picked up. Easy to put together and not bad looking. I would recommend this vacuum to a friend. Vacuum was shipped via Fedex. Ive only had this for a week, lets hope it last for a while.

Haven't had the vacuum very long, but have used it 3-4 times and love it so far. One suggestion on this machine as well as my two previous Bissell vacuums. Cord holder on handle is not snug enough to keep the cord locked in. It frequently pulls out and drops to the floor, where I step on it and almost fall! I try to be very careful and hold the cord, but forget sometimes and oops, I step on it, causing the machine to stop suddenly, I try not to lose my balance and do the falling dance to recover! Other then that i have been very happy with previous machines and deal with the cord issue. Hope this one continues to work so well. Love the canister lift off for stairs, window blinds, and all those jobs where you use the attachments. much easier then hauling around the upright!

Works great for pet hair

Works very well and love the detachable canister for doing the stairs. Also, without the canister it is much lighter to take upstairs. My only complaint was that I paid extra for shipping by a certain date and it did not come on the day I paid for it to come. I could have saved $13 and just waited over the weekend and gotten it with free shipping.

Review 6 for Bissell Lift-Off Multi-Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum, 89Q9

Great vacuum for frize carpets.

The large wheels and variable hight adjustment make this vacuum a great choice for frize carpets. The low profile works well to get under tables and desks. This is a very powerful vacuum and easy to guide around. It picks up very fine dust out of the carpet along with the bigger stuff. The pet turbo eraser tool is kind of weak but I did not buy it for that so that's not really a big negative for me. The pre motor filter could do a better job of filtering fine dirt before it goes through the motor. Marked down one on durability because of that, but we will see in the long run how it holds up. Very impressed so far.

This machine is a piece of junk, The manual states that when vaccuming hardwood floors, to turn the brush off, but there is no suction when you turn the brush off. I called Bissell and the cust. service person said, Yes Mam there is no suction when the brush is turned off, but you can purchased a floor attachment to do the floors, Hello why would I want to buy a seperate attachment when the box and manual says that this machine can be used on hardwoods. I taking this back now. Don't be fooled like I was.

So far the vacuum is pretty quiet and does a great job. The lift off feature and the pet brush are great. I use the pet brush on the stairs and it does a decent job. It's a little heavy, but rolls very well.

This is my second purchase of the Bissel lift off. I gave my older one to my mother to use because she likes it so much to use in the basement. The vacuum is a little on the heavy side but it is worth the purchase because of the canister lift off. I use that part to do the stairs and for cleaning out the cars. I highly recommend and have had no problems with mine as long as you clean it every so often

Love this machine. It picks up everything and is awesome with pet hair. I have two dogs that shed constantly and a long-haired cat so I have to vacuum every day. Up until now, I have not found a vacuum that could match my old Kirby. This one one does (and it's much lighter too). I also love it that you can lift off the canister for stairs and such. My only suggestion would be to offer a longer hose.

I bought one of these lift-off vaccums a few years ago and loved it. Then a HYLA salesman came by with a demo and my family thought it would be better, so when we bought the HYLA, the salesman took 'my lift off' :( As it turns about after a few months of carrying water and unclogging hoses, I bought this new Lift Off and and once again am in love with my new vaccum...it does great with dog hair and anything I need to clean up. Will never let another vaccum salesman in the house. For the money, this vaccum is the BEST

Review 15 for Bissell Lift-Off Multi-Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum, 89Q9

Excellent Value, Flexible Performance

The is our second Bissell "lift off" vacuum. The first unit lasted more than 6 years, and the only failure was a simple-to-replace power switch. The switch is readily available from site like the RepairClinic for about $5.00.
We compared this Bissell "lift off" to top brands, like Dyson, and found the Bissell suction performance to be within 90% of the Dyson product. So, for a mere 10% extra suction...the Bissell offers huge advantages over the Dyson. For example, the "lift off" featire allow you to remove the main vacuum and suction hose, and attach of suction-powered mini beater brush and clean your cargeted steps like never before.
Bissell invested a lot of time and money in designing this "lift off" feature. The feature makes the vacuum so much more portable you will enjoy cleaning steps, curtains, and other hard to reach places. When finished, the lift off vacuum simple drops back into place on the main unit...without any difficulty...due to the solid guide pin and cradle design. Never a mis alignment...never a pinched cord or hose.
The "utility" of any product is a function of its versatility, ease of use, and performance under varying circumstances. Bissell got this one right.
Buy this vacuum without hesitation. Cleaning the machine is simple, easy to do, and quick...which saves time. The only maintenance is replacing two filters...to ensure high-performance filtering of the vacuum's exhaust air to trap dust mites and other microscopic particles with an industry leading HEPA filter. The charcoal layer of the HEPA filter actually traps oders and freshens the air as you vacuum.
In short...great vacuum...great value...BUY IT with confidence that you will NOT be disappointed.

My Favorite Vacuum

04/07/2010

5 out of 5
We have owned this vacuum for about 4 years now. It is the first vacuum that has lasted me over a year. We have 5 pets-2 dogs and 3 cats, plus 2 kids. My vacuums have to work and they have to last. I love this bissell. I have never had to replace the belt and the motor has never even waivered. I had a bit of trouble with the hand held vacuum device, but I called Bissell and they sent me out a new one.
I also own the Bissel 2x cleaning machine, which I love and the Pet Hair Eraser, that I don't particularly like.
The Lift off has convenient attachments and the filters are easily cleaned and emptied. I don't really find them messy, but if you are not familiar with bagless, I can see where you might think they are. This is by far the nicest bagless I have owned. We have owned Dirt Devil, Hoover, Eureka and some Shark kind. Even the Pet Hair Eraser isn't as good as this one.
The suction on the Lift off is excellent and REALLY picks up the dog hair. The other thing I like about it is that when the unit is in the upright position, the rotator bar automatically stops. I had a Hoover that ate through my new carpet because the rotator bar kept going. You can also turn the rotator bar off and on and it works well on hard floors.
The foam filters can be washed and air dried. I purchased a second set so that I can rotate them without waiting for the filters to dry. I even washed the hepa filter, though you are not suppose to.
Having used many kinds of vacuums, I HIGHLY recommend the Lift Off.

I have to say I read a lot of reviews before buying this vacuum. I finally settled on this one and knew the issues I would have before buying. The filters on this vacuum do have to be kept clean in order to avoid some of the problems that other people are experiencing. It will lost suction and make a high pitched noise if you don't keep the filters clean. I clean mine after every use and have had the vacuum for 4 years. I was online today looking to see what the price was as I was going to buy another one my husbands office. I think this is an amazing vacuum but you have to be willing to keep the filters clean, which really you should be doing with any vacuum! Just know that this vacuum is worth the money if you are willing to take care of it.

I thought Bissell was a good name brand and registered for this when my husband and I got married. We had another vacuum so we kept this one in the box till we bought our first home. The first 2 weeks it was nice... and then it started losing suction. It also started making a humming noise. I took it apart and cleaned everything on it. It was so dusty in it... not just the parts that are going to get dusty but all of it. The dirty bin is a big mess to dump and clean. I feel like I have to clean the vacuum more than my carpets. Also it only spreads everything around if you try to use it on hard floors. The attachments are a joke because you get the extender on and then an attachment and all you do is knock the dirt and dust to the floor there is no suction at all. Then the motor broke less than a year after we took it out of the box. Not worth the box it was packaged in! We are not going to wast our money on anything bissell makes any more.
