BISSELL Zing Bagless Canister Vacuum, 2156A

I got this primarily to vacuum my dogs. That's right - I have two very large, very shedding dogs. A first gen Labradoodle - 1st gen don't always get the poodle coat. Mine didn't. He sheds. A LOT. I know people say their dogs shed, but seriously, this guy takes it to a whole new level. The other dog is a Rottweiler, who also sheds, but it's a "normal" amount. I have a robot vacuum, but it cannot cope with the volume of dog hair even running daily. The bin is always full. If I'm home when it runs I empty it twice while it's running. This is currently 4 days a week. The other three it gets emptied daily. Neither of our dogs are really afraid of the vacuum (before I had the robot one) so I figured it wouldn't be a stretch to get them acclimated to being vacuumed. So I ordered this and an attachment specifically designed to brush/vac a dog. The attachment was a waste. In the end I use the hose of this vacuum, without an attachment. Both dogs love it. However, the Rottie, she's obsessed. She begins barking excitedly as soon as I turn the vacuum on. I do use this to vacuum surfaces and corners where the robot can't quite manage - shelves, entertainment center, couches, corners, etc. My Rottie can't wait till it's her turn. And even when I'm done with her and move on the the non-Doodle Doodle, she is still trying to get in on the action. Bot dogs mad the "oh that feels SO good" face - seems to me it scratches the itch that they can never reach! Now - how does this little guy perform as an actual vacuum as opposed to a dog grooming implement? Surprisingly well! It has really powerful suction. Works great on all the items I mentioned. I haven't used it with the floor attachment but I can imagine that the folks who complain about it on carpet didn't read the description very well - there is no powered brush attachment and the suction is so powerful that I wouldn't even try to use it on carpet except with the crevice tool around baseboards, corners etc - I have all hard surface floors so this won't ever be something I do. I also can't speak to the length of the extension for the floor tool because I haven't used it - our robot vac does that job. The extensions do look short though so I can't imagine trying to vacuum my whole house with this - but I can see using them to take out cobwebs! As a lightweight, powerful hard floor vacuum, being used for everything BUT the bulk of the floor, I give this high marks. As a dog-grooming device I'm thrilled - the amount of fur and (shudder) dander that I dumped from the bin was a real eye-opener - and that's before I got to tapping out the filter (OMG that was disgusting!). I would not use this on small dogs.... the suction is powerful enough that you could probably lift a dog of 10lbs or less off the floor. But for my large dogs (+/-100lbs each), it's amazing. They love it, it gets the shed and hopefully it'll help cut down on the wear on our robot vac. It's also small enough that it tucks into our already packed hall closet easily. It rolls smoothly on the floor and even when I took it all over it didn't get tangled in it's cord. I also love that the cord retracts into the body of the machine. Between this and the robot vac, I will likely never use our expensive water basin vacuum again! If you're looking for something to get corners, cobwebs; to vacuum furniture and even large dogs, I don't think you can go wrong with this... just be prepared for your dog to become an addict.

Love love LOVE this vacuum cleaner! It is small but mighty! Super lightweight and easy to carry around and the suction is very strong. I have a house of 4 kids 6 and under so it has been put to the test! This thing has sucked up everything thats been thrown at it and has cut my vacuuming time in half compared to my old vacuum. I love the canister that I don’t have to deal with bags and emptying it is very easy. My house is a pretty average size house and I can vacuum the entire thing without having to pause and empty the canister. I do however agree with other peoples reviews that some of the tubes will come apart during vacuuming. I fixed that problem with a little piece of back duck tape and haven’t had any problems since. The only other thing that I did for my own personal preference was get a different head for the vacuum. I paired mine with the Selgo upgraded vacuum floor brush and it’s perfect! I’m sure more expensive models come with an adjustable length for the handle but for the price I would buy this over again any day!

So let me start out by saying I bought this to NOT replace my old vacuum but to enhance my vacuuming wizardness. My old vacuum which is also a Bissell does an amazing job on my floors so just reiterating I did not buy the Zing as a replacement machine. I purchased this Bissell simply due to the fact that it has a six foot hose. I have children who are destructive monsters, and everything from the very bottom corner to the very top corners of my house gets completely destroyed every day. Obviously my full size vacuum cannot reach the heights that I needed it to, so that is where this baby comes in! The Zing is a beautiful lime green color, exactly as it shows in the picture, and it throws quite a hefty punch! Or rather, could suck up a hefty punch! I was pleasantly surprised by the very small size of this machine, its movement capability, and by the way it could suck up an entire spilled snack time. Like I am not kidding... this thing sucked up every single smashed gold fish, without blowing any crumbs anywhere like my normal vacuum would. It's also small enough to fit under my couch, tv stand, and small double decker end table. I also used the corner attachments and cleaned the entire top part of my couch where my other children sleep (aka... my two cats, who have an issue with shedding) and it ripped that stuff up like it was no issue what-so-ever. This stay at home momma is in love. Its love. For real. What we do is really insanity, doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. Well this insane mommas job just got increasingly more easy! I clean my house probably close to three times a day, and each time takes me about thirty minutes to an hour... today I got done in a whopping twenty three minutes! What am I doing with the other 5-35 minutes? I am writing you this awesome review! :) If you're looking for a powerful little machine to get high up jobs done, this is the machine for you! Now you may ask "But Kayla, if you love it so much, then why only a 4 Star review?" Well, I am glad you asked that question! Remember when I mentioned in my very first sentence that I did not buy the Zing as a replacement for my old standard vacuum? Well Thank god I didn't. The Zing in my opinion does not do a well enough job to be a stand a lone vacuum cleaner. Don't get me wrong, it is the perfect supplement vacuum. It does great getting the things way high up, in the corners, and underneath things all while being aesthetically pleasing and lightweight. But that is where the pros basically stay. While testing this machine out today I used the carpet/hardwood floor attachment (the one it shows in the picture) and it honestly does not do that great of a job picking things up. Like I guess if you're picking up dust, or dirt or small things then yeah it would do great... but if you're tackling the mess of goldfish, cheerios, and whatever else kids or adults throw on the floor it doesn't get picked up, instead the attachment sits so close to the ground that you end up just pushing the crap on the floor around instead of it being sucked up. So when using the floor attachment I basically just used it as a broom and put it into a pile and then picked the attachment up and lowered it slowly onto the piles a few times until it was gone. Now the suction on this baby is amazing, it wasn't too big of an issue but it makes me glad that I have my other vacuum to tackle those bigger jobs. That is why I give it a 4 out of 5 stars. All in all I love this machine, and I am very happy with my purchase.

Me encantó!!!! Cumplió con mis expectativas al 100% . Buscaba una aspiradora que fuera practica, ligera y de gran potencia, para dejar la abrumadora escoba para barrer los pisos de mi casa. Es el segundo día que la uso y no tengo ningún comentario negativo. Es tan potente que no creo que sirva para aspirar alfombras, ya que su potencia es impresionante y no creo que se pudiera desplazar tan fácil en la alfombra. Pero para mis pisos es sencillamente sensacional!!! La volvería a comprar

Muy practica y facil de usar, puede limpiar bien los pisos, tengo 2 gatos y un perro

La uso para aspirar piso de porcelanato. Teniendo en cuenta esto: Lo bueno -Tanto el filtro como el depósito son demasiado fáciles de limpiar -Tiene la potencia para el uso que le doy, sustituye en un 90% barrer con escoba -No pesa nada -El cable de electricidad es larguísimo Lo malo: -Se calienta demasiado, al terminar una recámara tengo que apagarla un rato por precaución. En general creo que es una excelente aspiradora para uso doméstico, le daría 5 estrellas si no fuera porque se calienta

Procuto sencillo de usar, excelentes materiales, muy silenciosa y lo mas importante es que tiene un poder de succion extraordinario. La limpieza la hace al 100%

Tenemos 5 meses usando la aspiradora y hasta el momento no a presentado ningún problema, me gusta que es compacta, ligera y aspira muy bien.
