Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bissell 2680 Perfect Sweep Dual Brush SweeperCustomer Review: poor quality plastic parts Summary: 1 StarsThe plastic hinge on the dust tray cracked off the first time that
I used the product and now the sweeper is not functional.
Customer Review: Better than a broom Summary: 3 StarsThe handle really does fall apart. I give it a good push down before I pick it up and it usually holds together long enough to get it out of the closet, but the handle design is just bad.
It will pick stuff up fine IF you push down fairly hard while you're using it and if you have enough room to give a few full strokes back and forth over the area. In a very tight space I haven't had much luck.
Think of it as a very fancy broom with a built-in dustpan and you'll be thrilled with it. I like the fact that it doesn't throw dust back in my face the way the hand-held vacuum did. But don't think of it as a replacement for a real vacuum cleaner - it's just not that.
Customer Review: Old school sweeper Summary: 4 StarsBreak this out when company announces they are five minutes away. This will knock off the obvious stuff but is more of an interim solution between vacuuming. I have not had the handle issues that other reviewers have had, but a co-worker of mine did. She loves the sweeper and her husband riveted the handle pieces together. This product is great for quick, superficial surface sweeps. It deserves a place in anyone's housekeeping arsenal. 4 stars because the handle issue seems well documented though not a problem of mine.
Customer Review: The Handle Needs Improvement Summary: 3 StarsThe handle comes apart way, way too easily. I'm going to remedy that next time I use it.
It seems to pick up little crumbs and hair just fine. Some of the bigger crumbs jump around for awhile before I can get the sweeper to pick them up, but it's no biggie. This thing isn't meant to be a vaccuum.
Customer Review: It's a brush sweeper, not a vacuum cleaner Summary: 4 StarsThe Bissell Perfect Sweep is not a vacuum cleaner. I use it daily it to SWEEP our linoleum floor. It performs well but it's not "Perfect". The sweeper is useless on our berber carpet -- for this I use the vacuum cleaner. Also the Bissell can't clean all the way in the corners of the room. Despite these limitations, I'm happy with the sweeper.
The box has explicit directions on how to assemble the handle. I followed the instructions and the handle has yet to come apart. I even lift the Bissell Perfect Sweep by the handle without it coming apart. Guess it's easier to blame Bissell than read the instructions.
This is our second brush sweeper. Our daughter took the first one to her apartment. :-)
