Win the pet hair battle!,
I am a veterinary technician at a small animal clinic. When our central vac system malfunctioned our office manager picked up this machine to use until repairs could be made. I was completely amazed by this light-weight, easy to maneuver vac. Hair, toenail clippings, dirt all gone! We’ve tried other stick vacs at the clinic and they usually just push the hair and nails around the floor, or they clog up in seconds. This vac is so impressive that I ran out and bought one for my 6 cat, 3 dog, 1 baby house.
This vac has a ridiculously large amount of suction for it’s size. The suction power, together with the odd looking but highly effective v-shape front edge, pulls the hair and dirt into the vac rather than pushing it around. It’s hard to overstate the “Wow!” factor involved as it cleans right up to the baseboards, under the cupboard edges, pulls hair from corners and around chair legs. (I’d been using the edging tool on my large upright vac to do the same things–heavy, took more time, and didn’t clean as well!) All that in a light-weight vac that can be picked up one handed without a thought. I’ve been zipping this around at home on our vinyl and laminate floors while carrying my infant daughter in her baby sling. Emptying the vac is simple and doesn’t make a mess. Yet another great feature is the absence of bristles. Everyone who deals with pet hair quickly learns that bristles are just spots for the hair to collect and drag around the house rather than going into the vac. Someone at Bissell was doing their homework.
The only downside to this vac is the noise. It is loud. Very loud. But, given the suction power all that noise produces, I’m more than willing to overlook it!
The Bissell design team deserves a huge round of applause from pet owners!

Great Deal for the Price,
The first thing to know is that this vacuum is a little different than the BISSELL PowerEdge Hard Floor Vacuum. The names are similar and they look alike. However, unlike the BISSELL PowerEdge Hard Floor Vacuum, The BISSELL Bronze PowerEdge Pet Vacuum does not have bristles that could scratch the floor. Instead it has a straight plastic strip that squeegeess all particles and hair into the vacuum suction of the unit. I tried many products and until this prduct, the Swiffer Sweeper was the best. I prefer this product now. Because it plugs in, it can go forever. It picks up anything and everything; and it is easy to empty. It is a great tool for hard floors, especially at about $50.

Best vacuum for pets if you have bare floors and area rugs!,
We have 4 cats, 2 dogs, and 2 rabbits. Needless to say, there is TONS of hair, dirt, dust, and cat litter. We have hardwood floors and area rugs. This vacuum sucked up every piece of cat litter without spitting at my feet. It gets everything along the baseboards without having to sweep stuff away from them. It sucked up ALL the hair without blowing it around. My chihuahua is always chewing her toys apart into little pieces and it sucked all the pieces up with no problem. It made my area rugs look like new. This vacuum is a MUST have for anyone with bare floors and pets and it was only $50. The only cons are: the cord isn’t as long as a regular carpet vacuum, you have to get used to how it maneuvers, and it fills up quick (however, I had TONS of pet hair to collect for the first time use. Just started using it today). Someone had commented that it was loud, but I didn’t think it was any louder than a regular vacuum. I actually think it was a little quieter. Overall, I am very satisfied with this vacuum and wish I had gotten it a long time ago.
