Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Remanufactured Bissell 3750R Lift-Off Bagless Vacuum, Red
Customer Review: Great if it would work...
Summary: 1 Stars
I was really hesitant on purchasing a refurbished vacuum cause I always believed that your gonna get what you pay for. Well, took the chance and I'm back to my old thought process now. Got the vacuum last night (WOW, that was quick 4 days), and excitingly put it together this morning (finally, after 2 weeks clean carpets again), plugged it in and hmmmm, great motor sound, might clean better if the brush moved though. Called the Bissel Rep. and after 30 min (25 of taking personal information and 5 of troubleshooting)I got a big fat send it back it's "defective". Well, ya live and learn (or re-learn) eh.Customer Review: Bissell Lift Off is an AWESOME buy !

I cannot even begin to tell you how happy I am to have this Bissell. The Lift Off is incredible in performance and ease of use. Bissell has been outstanding in their customer service. I promptly registered it (along with my Self Propelled ProHeat, online via their awesome website. They have taken great care in refurbishing these Vacuums. There are many different accessories available for purchase on the unit, each of which are very affordable and shipped promptly. I was so happy with this purchase that I am considering buying another as a Christmas Gift. Customer Review: Good deal for the money...
Summary: 3 Stars
I just received mine last night. The product looks perfect - no obvious marks or defects. My previous vac. a Kenmore Progressive upright that is about 7 years old. It still works, but I've know it has been losing power for awhile now. I decided to do "the challenge" and vac. with the old one, and then with the new Bissell.
Well, I cleaned only my small living room, and had to empty the Bissell dirt container 4 times. On the fifth time I got smart and started dumping it all in a big Ziploc bag to show everybody else (sort of the car-crash theory). It seems to work VERY well on my cat's long hair, but also, it picked up dust specks so fine, it looked like gray powered sugar. I did my whole house and the more I used it, the more it pulled up. This is especially wonderful (but a gross) discovery of how poorly my old vac. was working as I have young children in my house and need to vac. every day. Also: I've shampooed these carpets 2X in the past 3 months. I really thought I was getting the floors clean until I used this machine.
Do I think it is the "world's best"? No. It has some flaws: It is VERY tippy. The handle doesn't "click" upright back into place, so once when I thought it had locked into place, it came crashing down at me. That's scarey with small kids around. It is fairly loud, but if that means more powerful suction, I don't mind. The onboard tools included are just basic. The manual says you can order more, but I think it should have at least included a bare floor brush. I'm going to see if my old ones will fit before I order more from Bissell.
But if you are looking for just an easy-to-use, powerful vac. to do routine cleaning, I think you'll be happy. For less than $100, it was a steal (I don't mind buying re-manuf. items since the warranty still applies). But I wouldn't have spent the $250 or so that my local Sears store wanted.
Suggestions on how this product could have been improved: Less tippy, less noisy, include an on-board dirt indicator, better hand tools. And, oh,yeah, keep it at this price. Sorry if I mention money too much, but I'm on a SUPER tight budget, and I'm thrilled I could just afford ANY new vac. The fact that I could and it WORKS as well as it does - well, that's incredible to me!

The performance of this vacuum is great! Getting the refurbed one has been no problem at all. It looks and performs just as great as the one my mom purchased brand new. What more can you ask for.
