BISSELL - CleanView Multi Cyclonic Bagless Canister Vacuum

I bought a Bissel (canister, bagless) like half a decade ago, still works so well. I think it's called cleanview? And it was advertised as good for pet hair

Mine was not that cheap. I believe I paid $130 Cad for it about 6 years ago.

I would go for a bigger heavy vacuum like a Bissell power force helix with that budget. Usually heavy vacuums are my go to since they are powerful and you have kids. The one I bought was in 2013 however and at that time it was so good. Not sure of the new Bissells since I havent bought them. However i had a cleanview cord rewind a couple months ago and peformed well. Again it's a vacuum that is found at walmart so it's cheap but works very well for its price. However there might be better options I'm not aware of.

If at any moment money is a concern you can get a good Bissell vacuum at walmart for like 150 bucks. Something like a powerforce helix, cleanview, or anything in that style. I remember I bought one in 2013 and it was amazing for the buck. However not sure how is a powerforce helix now a days. I had a cleanview a couple months ago and it worked quite awesome but ate a ziptie and lost suction. However, great vacuum still should last you around five years. If your apartment is in Miami I'd choose dyson animal since they are in fact powerful. However they are at the 400-650 dollar price range. I have a Dyson DC24 used (old) which I recently got and its awesome. Dosen't pick much as a heavier vacuum but the ball technology is awesome and its fun to use so I can imagine how the new ones would be. I'd stay away from cordless vacuums. They are weird and when you use one it feels weird and it feels like its gonna die for some reason and are not as powerful. The heavier the better I feel tho.

We got the same brand, on sale for $70, at Sam's Club..about a month ago. It sucked the dog hair right out of everything - rugs, stairs, thick and light carpet. Wish we got one years ago...just been using a Hoover that did half the suction.

Bissell Cleanview is amazing for the price
