Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bissell 3574 CleanView II Upright Bagless Vacuum
Customer Review: Great Gift
Summary: 5 Stars
I gave this as a housewarming gift to my daughter. She responded that it did a superior job in helping prepare her new home for the first visitors: her in-laws. She passed inspection with flying colors. I also own a Bissell vacuum and have been very pleased with its versatility and ease of use. The only drawback that I have experienced is the availability of parts and supplies at local stores. In most cases you have to order such things on-line. The good news is that their web site is excellent and their service is superior.Customer Review: Read the other reviews and see

I have only used this vacuum 5 times. The dirt cup is very small and you have to empty it after each use. I didn't like the fact that you have to clean 3 filters after so many uses. It cleans great. I noticed a lot of dust/dirt getting stuck above the dirt holder. On the 5th use, there was a terrible smell. Most of the other reviews says the motor only lasts about a year, after 5 months it gets much louder and they can smell something burning. So I returned it after the 5th use. Went to an eureka. Customer Review: Easy to use and lightweight

We bought this for my mom, she's 91, and she loves it! She doesn't like change very often, but she loves this vaccum. She can see the dirt that her old vaccum missed, and her carpets are noticeble cleaner. That is not an easy statement to make considering that her house is normally spotless, but she could definitely see the difference between her old vaccum and this one. This was one birthday gift that we never heard one complaint about. Bissell makes a great carpet cleaner, and now I'm convinced that they make a great inexpensive vaccum. I will continue to buy Bissell in the future; not only because they clean well, but also because the price is great too!Customer Review: It's like manually cleaning out the bag from a bag-type vacuum.
Summary: 1 Stars
I thought a bagless vacuum would be the answer I was looking for.
The vacuum itself works wonderfully when fresh out of the box.
However, every 2 months or so, you have to manually clean each of 3 filters and purchase a new HEPA filter (currently around $9) or the vacuum has zero suction.
It's absolutely disgusting--like ripping open a bag from an old bag-type vacuum and manually scooping out all the dirt and dust. Filthy.
Customer Review: Good value

I saw this model at a local thrift store, it looked good and I bought it. The rubber belt had snapped, I bought a new one online from totalvac dot com. They have a good inventory of vacuum supplies. It is now working great and I am happy with it.
It is a little loud, but does a very good job of picking up dirt and stray threads on the carpeting. No problems and I am impressed with it. I would recommend buying a couple of extra belts and perhaps some extra filters. That would make it easy to swap out the foam filters and no need to wait for your filters to completely dry. There is some maintenance involved such as cleaning out your filters but nothing too difficult or time consuming. I would recommend this, or similiar models, as a relatively low-cost vacuum cleaner that does a good job.
