BISSELL - ReadyClean Cordless 10.8V Stick Vacuum

Bissel ready clean cordless 2 in 1 I’ve had it for 3 years I use it everyday for about 10 minutes and I clean it out everytime I use it. I really like that it has a hand vac I use that all the time. I’m really happy with it and am surprised it’s lasted as long as it has. I payed $120 plus tax 3 years ago for it

I recently did a lot of research on stick vacuums because our 16 lb Dyson was too heavy for me to want to use. We have wool carpets, some over 100 years old, and need a vacuum where we can turn off the brush to protect the rugs as much as possible. I spent hours studying these things, and had a spreadsheet of about 40 vacuums, ranging in price from about $100 to $800. I chose the [Bissell ReadyClean 3190](https://www.bissell.com/en-us/product/readyclean-cordless-108v-stick-vacuum-3190A.html). You can turn the brush off and it weighs 7 lbs, so it's easy to manage. It has two other features we like, one is that the removable handheld is easy to use, the other is that it folds down, so we actually hide it behind a chair in our living room. [Bissell ReadyClean 3190](https://www.bissell.com/en-us/product/readyclean-cordless-108v-stick-vacuum-3190A.html). It's available from Target for about $150. So, amazingly, even though I was willing to pay more, this one fit the had what I wanted and it works great. I'm now vacuuming regularly because I can handle the thing, and turn OFF the brush as needed.

I use a Bissell ReadyClean cordless (got it on sale from Target for $115) and a “carpet squeegee” from Amazon (probably $20). Works great on both linoleum and carpet. The problem is the Bissell has a small reserve for what it sucks up, so you have to empty it more often than a canister vacuum.

Nope. Had one of the ball ones over a decade ago and ended up replacing it with a Bissell when we moved and the cord wasn’t long enough. $30 Bissell canister did a better job. I’ve since added a Bissell upright pet and a Bissell cordless stick to replace my broom.
