Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bissell 3990 Total Floors Velocity Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner
Customer Review: So far...LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!
Summary: 5 Stars
Great item! I keep cleaning it because of the other reviews I read, but I haven't had any problems with it at all! I have two black labs and this machine does a great job with the hair. I used to have a canister vac and while vacuuming it smelled gross becuase of all of the dog hair, but that is now eliminated because you can empty the bowl as often as you like! No smelliness! Yeah!!Customer Review: Wow! I can't believe the cleaning power!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have looked and looked for a decently priced powerful vacuum. I have a cat and needed to be sure it would do the job. This is one of the few vacuums that is reviewed to clean up pet hair well. I just used it for the first time today! The rug in my living room looks brand new, not a strand of pet hair left. It is also gentle on my wood floors. Completely amazed by this product. I LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Customer Review: Wonderful Vacuum
Summary: 4 Stars
I love this vacuum...it is my favorite out of all the ones that I have owned. I found the price to be very reasonable and the shipping to be very fast. It was not hard to put together and the attachments are great.
My only complaint is that it came broken. I read this in another review also. The part that was broken were the hinges to the filter. I figured that I will just glue them rather than have the whole hassel of sending it back and waiting for another one to arrive.
Other than that, I don't have a complaint about the vacuum itself. I love the long cord on it. My old ones I would have to unplug two or three times in the course of vacuuming but this one seems to be super long. If you need a great vacuum this is it!
Customer Review: all plastic
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this product because of the good reviews it got, but I must have received one that failed the quality inspection and got shipped out anyway. It was not what I expected. First, it was shipped only in the box it was packed in for display in the store, with no shipping box. Consequently, the box arrived with a big hole in the side. It comes packed tightly in its box with no protective padding, even though it is plastic. When I opened the box, I found the plastic cover over the rotator brush was broken. It was made of this cheap hard clear plastic like one of those cheap kids' toys and as I recall, there was no rubber bumper furniture guard on it anywhere at all. It was just this big piece of cheap plastic. Also, the hand turbo brush was this little dinky plastic thing that was maybe only two inches wide. I returned the vac immediately.
The Total Floors Velocity model is not sold in any store in my city, so I truly do not know if mine was a defective model or if it was designed that way. Not only do the different models in the Velocity series differ in function and accessories, but also they have very different designs in many ways, from the amount of rubber on the furniture guard to the shape of the handle. From looking at the Velocity and Pet Hair Eraser (the other two models in the series) vacs in the stores, I would say the other vacs in the Velocity series seem to be much better made.
Customer Review: Works fine, controls are kinda lame, get this if you have wood floors
Summary: 3 Stars
Had mine a couple months now. It really does suck stuff up pretty well and I haven't had any complaints about emptying it. If you have tile and hardwood, this is the Bissell to get. The others in t 39XX range are not as well designed for the variety floors.
So my complaints:
I wish the on/off switch were on the handle.
The hose gets in the way of winding the powercord
It feels top-heavy compared to my old kenmore
I wish the edges stuck out to the sides a little more so i could clean under the kickboard of my cabinets without using the hose
but it's ok... really. I'd buy another for how cheap they are.
