I feel terrible. I usually write brilliant reviews even if the product is an order of magnitude higher than normal. I was hesitant to write anything about this Bissell because I thought I might eventually find a use for it where it would be successful. But unfortunately, a few months after trying it, it still sucks, maybe even worse :( I can't use it on any carpet because it clogs IMMEDIATELY. I've tried using it on my window sills because I thought it would be a salvation but no. The suction power is terrible. Seriously it was a complete rip off. I originally bought this because I was looking for something with a "flexible" wand to pick up any dog hair under my bed "Forget it. The thing clogged up right away. My dog is 15 pounds and hardly sheds - so it was so frustrating!"
