The Bissell Surface Sense Pet Lift-off vacuum is amazing! Bissell kindly sent this vacuum through the BzzAgent sampling program so that I could honestly review it. I've owned several brands of vacuums (Dyson/Shark) but this Bissell has many unique features. The suction is really strong, picks up a bunch of additional hair and dirt throughout the house. It's fairly quiet, well built, easy to put together & clean, and the cord is long. The LED lights are super bright and helpful as well. I have hardwood floors and area rugs, and I don't have to make any adjustments while cleaning. It's no problem switching from carpet to hard surfaces - it does it automatically! The perfect vacuum for all types of floors. I would most definitely purchase this product and highly recommend to family, friends, and pet owners.
