Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Clean a home or business cordlessly with this 3-1/2-pound sweeper from Bissell, the company that invented the device. With a 9-1/2-inch cleaning path and a six-brush system, the sweeper snags lint, crumbs, pet hair, and debris from bare floors and carpet. It features two roller brushes and four corner-mounted edge cleaners that are ready to go instantly and adjust automatically to floor type. Bissell designs the brush rollers to turn in opposite directions, so the unit picks up whether it's going forward or backward. Emptying the sweeper's front and back collection pans is simple--just flip them open on their sturdy hinges and dump--while a clip-on brush comb helps maintain the rollers. The unit's steel handle can stay upright or release to horizontal, and it features a hanging hole for storing the tool flat against the wall. Comfortable to use and efficient, the sweeper's also extra quiet, making it great for early-morning or late-night use or cleaning while a baby's asleep. --Emily Bedard

1.0 out of 5 stars Bissell has gone downhill with this model!, January 29, 2003
By 
"ellidotcom" (Bridgewater, New Jersey United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bissell 26706 Sweeper (Kitchen)
I had an older version of the Bissell sweeper 20 years ago, and it was fantastic, but I left it behind in a recent move. I decided to replace it with this similar model, for quick pick ups between vacuuming. Though this sweeper looks the same as the old one, it does not even come close in quality or performance.
Most annoying is the handle. The sections of pipe refuse to stay together. The sections just keep coming apart while the sweeper is being used. (I'm not positive, but I THINK in my older Bissell Sweeper the handle pipes were threaded. I know that the handle never presented a problem.)
This newer sweeper also does not hold the debris inside very well. As soon as you stop sweeping, before you can even get over a trash can to empty what you just swept up, debris falls out from the brush area. The older design seemed to throw the debris into the end collection trays, where it remained for emptying.

The quality is NOT what I had come to expect from my past experience with a Bissell Sweeper. One addition since the old model, this sweeper includes a little plastic brush cleaning tool, that neatly stores on the handle. Would be a nice feature, IF the handle would stay on the sweeper!
The current scenario: sweep floor, handle falls apart, little brush cleaning tool pops off the fallen section of the handle, search for the little plastic tool, put it back on the pipe, reassemble the sections of pipe, sweep some more, empty the sweeper, sweep up the debris that the sweeper dropped, trying carefully to keep the handle together, put the sweeper away, trying not to drop more debris onto the floor, and get out the vacuum!

3.0 out of 5 stars Good and Bad points, November 17, 2002
This review is from: Bissell 26706 Sweeper (Kitchen)
I've had this sweeper for a few years now and have found this to be a usefull product for quick pick up after meals in the dining room(with a messy pre-schooler and toddler) and as a good quick brush up between vacuumings. While this doesn't replace a vacuum cleaner by any means, it does a decent job for it's purpose. The pockets in which mess is deposited are easy to flip to dump in the trash. This pickes up rice, cheerios, bits of paper, some dirt, cracker crumbs, ect prety well. Don't expect it to get anything *in* the carpet fibers.

However, it has not stood up well with use. The two roller brushes which pick up stuff fall out often now since the plastic sides of the sweeper have become warped. The rollers are held in by a simple tab in hole design, and this is rather flimsy. Because of this, I haven't been able to use it much since it developed this problem.

It still has it's use as a fun cleaning toy for my kids though. While I vacuum my 3yo son likes to use the sweeper to imitate me vacuuming. It's light enough that he can push it around with ease and practice saying "'scuse me peese" lol :-). So, for the investment which isn't too much, I got a usefull sweeper which held up for about a year, which could be graduated to a toy after it wore out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Super Sweeper!, April 2, 2002
By 
Dan Mitchell (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bissell 26706 Sweeper (Kitchen)
This works great as an alternative to hauling out the vacuum. No long cords to get tangled. It does a great job picking up crumbs and pet hair. Easy to assemble, clean, and empty. Not to mention it's quiet and doesn't scare my dog.
