Review on BISSELL 3079 Cordless Featherweight Vacuum Cleaner by Phillip Hoover

They call me the queen of vacuums. Don't laugh - it's true. I love trying out vacuum cleaners and choosing the best ones for the job I need to do. This one popped up and I was intrigued. Just take a look. BOX The box it comes in is quite small. Everything is folded and well packed. BASE The base snaps into place very easily. It has a brush roller. BASE UNIT The base unit has a really neat feature. He locks the handheld vacuum cleaner. It keeps the brushroll head upright when locked and also has a handle that opens and closes for storage or use underneath. CHARGER The charger is a transformer and is proprietary. I STRONGLY recommend that you write this down immediately upon receipt so it doesn't get confused with all other charging cables. CHARGING It took me 2 hours to charge from empty. It's so easy and simple to use. It swoops across the mid-pile carpet we have, then easily swaps out for floor and floor carpet. The plus or minus setting makes it so I can slow it down if I want. HANDLE FLEXIBILITY This has a great feature: with the flick of a lever you can disable the handle so you can easily pull it under furniture. It's easy to use and snaps in nicely. HAND VACUUM CLEANER Also the handheld vacuum with this one is just awesome. I take pictures and go to work. There isn't room for attachments on the stick broom, but they are small enough to fit in the box where I put other attachments for my handheld vacuum. The attachments worked really well with pet furniture, lifting a stack that others can't handle. I had no problems. TIME I took this vacuum out for about 20 minutes before charging it again. I try not to let it run empty. IS IT EASY TO HANDLE? If you have trouble with heavy vacuum cleaners, this could be the perfect solution for you. It's lightweight but works very well. CONCLUSION I am very satisfied with this vacuum cleaner. It's great for getting up quickly or running across the floor in between general cleaning. It helps to have it on hand before someone walks in. It's easy to use and powerful enough to work well. MY RATING IS FIVE STARS. I really didn't expect it to be THAT great. So far I'm very happy with it. I like that the handle folds down for storage, but the vacuum takes up little floor space in an upright position and doesn't need to be laid down or hung up.
