Bissell 6900 DigiPro Canister Vacuum


Bissell 6900 DigiPro Canister Vacuum
You may think of canister vacuums as clumsy beasts, but the 12-amp Bissell DigiPro canister vacuum is anything but. Built with exacting attention to details and sturdy components, the vacuum is easy to use and versatile enough for the whole house. Plus, it incorporates filtration and digital sensor technology that automatically adjusts suction power for optimal results.

Designed for bare floors and carpet, the DigiPro's floor nozzle has edge-cleaning construction, five different heights, a 13-inch cleaning path, and a wide headlight. You can adjust suction with the variable power controls, using low for delicates, economy for normal cleaning, and high for ground-in dirt. Or, leave it on automatic to make use of Bissell's digital detection system. The 5-row brush roll can be switched off if necessary, and the wand telescopes to accommodate different user heights or hard-to-reach tasks. The washable HEPA filtration is a boon to allergy sufferers--it traps up to 99.9 percent of ragweed, dust mites, and pollen.

The DigiPro is useful for above-floor jobs and stairways, too, with a compact shape that fits onto stairs, and a dusting brush, upholstery tool, and crevice attachment stored onboard. Handy extras include a bag-change indicator, fingertip switches, automatic cord rewind, and oversized toe-tap buttons. Large casters, swivel-glide wheels, and a comfortable carrying handle enhance maneuverability. For storage, the nozzle can be parked in two places on the canister, which stores either upright or horizontal. Bissell includes 12 extra vacuum bags to get you started. --Emily Bedard

Customer Review: Misguided purchase-Didpro 6900

This is the worst vacuum cleaner I have purchased in 30 years! The suction is poor, poor filter. I have enjoyed many Bissell products this one would be better smashed. The company had very few answers or suggestions. This will certainly direct my purchases elsewhere.

    Customer Review: A Terrible Vacuum!

    I purchased this vacuum over a year-and-half ago and have hated it from the start. The first problem is that it has very limited suction strength - it might pick up a penny (as others claim), but often it won't pick up a stray piece of lint (no matter how many times I try)...and it leaves so much HAIR behind that I have to follow up with an adhesive lint brush!!! (And since I have long hair, there are always stray hairs around the house, no matter what I do). Also, this vacuum has such a small cleaning path!!! And the hose detaches from the wand on a regular basis - and to top it all off, I have found using a canister vacuum to be very inconvenient. I'm now shopping for a bagged upright vaccum, hopefully with more cleaning power and a much wider cleaning path.

    Customer Review: amazing small vacuum cleaner

    Compact Plus Canister Vacuum from Bosch.

    This is very powerful small vacuum cleaner recommended to anyone with hard floors.

    It is so silent that person in the next room might not realize you are vacuuming. It has variable suction settings. On the carpet it does OK job, but I have really small carpet area in the house.

    Highly recommended!!!

    Miele Sirius Canister Vacuum


    Miele Sirius Canister Vacuum (Diamond Dealer Edition)

Why not explore the excitement and the difference a Miele S4 vacuum cleaner can make in your home? NOW INCLUDES: SBB300-3 Parquet Floor Tool

    Customer Review: Great machine; note that no basic floor tool included

    The vacuum itself is lightweight, has great power and is amazingly quiet for its performance. Note that "NOW INCLUDES: SBB300-3 Parquet Floor Tool" is misleading since that's the *only* floor tool included. That tool works great on bare floors, but it doesn't work at all for carpets.
    At this writing, if you purchase this machine and have carpets, you'll also have to purchase a floor tool that works with carpets. I ended up buying the optional turbo brush (an extra $120+) which works amazingly well for a non-electronic brush, but it wasn't a cost I had planned on. You could also get the general purpose floor tool for less that works with carpets and bare floors. After the purchase I checked other dealers who sell this model, and they state it only comes with the parquet floor tool. It would be helpful if the Amazon product description made this clear as well.

    Sanyo SC-180 3-in-1 Stick Vac, Canister, and Handheld Vacuum Cleaner


    Sanyo SC-180 3-in-1 Stick Vac, Canister, and Handheld Vacuum Cleaner, Silver
    SANYO SC180/VAC/3-IN-1/6AMP/POWER HEAD

    Customer Review: Great little vac

    I love this vac! It is the second one that i have owned. The first one died after 12 years. And the best price was at Amazon. Downsides would be the bags are small so they have to be changed often.

    But this vac picks up cat hair, dog hair and stray litter pebbles. the attachments work great for the furniture and the fact that it becomes a handheld makes it easy to do the stairs. (so my husband tells me!)

    Customer Review: THIS THING IS THE REAL DEAL.

    Unlike many of the other vacuums on the market which are made of cheap plastic and designed to last only a couple of years, this vacuum is very well engineered and put together. They use much better polymers in their parts and the whole thing is clearly well built. It's more expensive than others but worth every penny. I actually like vacuuming now! It's sooooo quiet compared to others I've heard and the sound it does make is much more pleasing that the high pitched noise usually heard. What an improvement from the $500 Electrolux we used to have. I can actually hear the stereo playing now when I work.
    One of the best features of this vac is the head for hard floors. It has a ball joint on it that allows you to control the head as if it were your own hand at the end of the wand. You've really got to try it to believe it. Before you shell out money for any other vac, you've got to make it to a dealer and give it a try. I walked into the dealer thinking I wanted a Riccar or a Sebo or a Dyson, or maybe one of the better Hoovers, but was totally convinced after just 5 minutes with the Miele.
    I negociated with a local dealer and was able to get the larger carpet head instead of the smaller one that usually comes with this model for the same price ($800). Some people may prefer the smaller head to get into smaller spaces, but I liked the bigger one as it's more substancial and covers more area in one pass.
    Either way, you will ***LOVE*** this machine.
