 Smoking! (Literally!) December 25, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have had this product for about a year but don't use it all that often because the vacuum side isn't all that good and for the small floor area that I have, I usually find it quicker to just use a dust mop and then mop. However, I drag it out every so often and tonite, immediately after I plugged it in, the motor made a funny sound and then started smoking - enough to set my smoke detector off. I emptied the detergent area, wrapped up the cord, and put it in the trash bin outside. I don't believe that I will be buy anything like this again.
 Bissell 5200 December 22, 2008
This Bissell product is again one of Bissell's best made floor cleaner. The convenience of going from dry to wet cleaning by a simple flip of the handle. The power of the brushes amazed me when I cleaned a floor that had not been cleaned in months. The floor turned out sparkling white, no joke.
thank you
Not bad but not what I expected December 3, 2008
I purchased this vacuum about 3 years ago thinking it would help me with my wood floors and my tile. While the other reviews are correct in sayin the dry vacuum does tend to blow away light debris such as hair and dust I find that after a few passes it does pick it up.
The wet vacums side does an excellent job of scrubbing and mopping both tile,hardwood, and linoleum. My complaint is when I put it in the upright and postition it dumps some of the dirty water on my already clean floor, not much but enough to piss me off slightly.
The other thing im not a fan of is the clean up. If you do not properly wash out all of the peices it will stink horribly the next time you use it. Especially the filter.
I do like however that the cleaning solution is separate and if you dont use all of it you can keep it in the vacuum for the next time.
Overall I am happy with my purchase, I think I got it on sale at Target about 3 years ago for $75. It is good for the monthly/bi-monthly deep cleanings. I will honestly say that I use my Swiffer vaccuum and wet mop more than I do this, but it is mainly because of the clean up issue.
Overall I do recommend this like I said for the monthly/bi-monthly deep clean not for weekly use.
 wonderful for all floor types December 3, 2008
this is great for in between cleaning! I'm a hands and knees scrubber, but doing that every week is rather rough. this makes it so I only have to clean that way every other week! it's not as good as hand cleaning, but it does a decent job. and the sweeper function is pretty nice too to clean up crumbs and hairs. the only issue i have is that when you clean out the tank all the crumbs are mixed in with the dirty water and sometimes it takes awhile for the fluid to wet the pad. other than that it's a nice, easy to use cleaning item.
 Buy a Mop and a Broom November 25, 2008
I bought this to make my life, helping around the house, easier. This didn't even come close. I have mopped a lot of floors in my life and this product made more work for me. The vacuum, wet and dry, has as much suction as a gold fish! If you want to sweep first and use this contraption to 'mop' the floor, just prepare yourself to then wipe up the muck that it just pushes around. A note to Bissell, Not even close! The good reviews for this thing are most likely employees of Bissell or from people that actually clean the floor before cleaning the floor. Either way, I'm getting my money back and using it to go the way of a regular mop and broom.
