Bissell 2156A Zing Canister Bagless Vacuum

Me encantó!!!! Cumplió con mis expectativas al 100% . Buscaba una aspiradora que fuera practica, ligera y de gran potencia, para dejar la abrumadora escoba para barrer los pisos de mi casa. Es el segundo día que la uso y no tengo ningún comentario negativo. Es tan potente que no creo que sirva para aspirar alfombras, ya que su potencia es impresionante y no creo que se pudiera desplazar tan fácil en la alfombra. Pero para mis pisos es sencillamente sensacional!!! La volvería a comprar

Since January 2024: going strong and working flawlessly. Amazing. My prior vacuum cleaners all fizzled away after 2 - 3 years. This one is remarkably easy to use and portable. It never seems to tangle on its own cord somehow, and I'm not sure how they pulled that off. The suction is strong and stays strong - it has not lost strength after nearly 3 years. You will need bags to run this vacuum and that is an ongoing cost. However, I have been able to find 3rd party bags at super cheap prices and they work fine - super clean and sanitary unlike my experience with bagless vacuums where I often make a mess or leave dust behind, Overall I'm very happy with this vacuum and hope I can get more years of service out of it. On average I use one bag ever two months on a 2-bedroom condo.

Came very quickly. Great power and suction. No beater bar and the floor bar is mediocre, doesn’t always pick things up. The cord is WAY too short, that’s the main downfall. Great for cleaning dust and ceiling fans, very lightweight, easy to carry and vacuum at the same time if you have to get up high etc. If you buy the horse hair brush with it, it makes a fantastic vacuum for dusting high places, shelves, all the corners and baseboards, etc. Not the best for full floor vacuuming.

I renovated my house 5 years ago and have had bare floors for the first time in my life. It's been a hit and miss game to find a cleaning system that works for them. I had a Dyson vacuum for the carpet but it turns out that it doesn't work very well on bare floors. I was using a shop vacuum from my garage but that thing is so awkward and big to lug around. I decided to get a tank vacuum instead of an upright because I needed something that got into crevices and the wands on the uprights are so inconvenient to take in and out of the handle (the Dyson is good for being annoying in this regard). Since Bissell is a brand that I knew, I got this model because it was a small tank and it has wheels on the bottom so that it just slides around with me. First, the vacuum is easy to put together. You just slide the hose and wand together and place it on the tank. This is a bagged vacuum and Bissell thoughtfully put the first bag in the vacuum for you so you can see how it goes together and can use it right off the bat. I've had bagless tank vacuums and those things were terrible to clean. I have a cat and random litter that she tracked out of the litter box just ruined the bagless tanks and caused a smell that I could never get rid of even when cleaning. Having a bag just eliminates the dust and general mess. What I like about this vacuum is the little features that I didn't know it had. These make the vacuum incredibly convenient for me (which means I'll use it more often): 1) The cord is contained within the vacuum itself and retracts back in when you're done with it. I don't have to straighten the electrical cords anymore! Unless you've had to try to unkink an electrical cord every time you use a vacuum, you have no idea how nice this is. The cord is longer than other cords I've seen on this type of vacuum but you would still need an extension cord if you don't want to plug and unplug every time you go to a new room. 2) A feature which I've never seen on a vacuum before is that you can adjust the suction from very low to very high and anywhere in between using the dial on the front. This allows you to avoid sucking in curtains, fabrics and cat toys into your vacuum when you're trying to clean them (the curtains, not the cat toys). 3) There are two attachments - one is a small upholstery brush to use for curtains, your couch, etc. The other is a crevice tool with a brush on it that is exactly the right width to go in the tracks of your window frames. I've spent a long time trying to find a convenient way to clean those tracks and now I have one. 4) There are only three buttons on this thing - power, button to retract the cord and the suction. The buttons and the dials are very big so if an older person who had arthritis problems or other issues with their hands, this vacuum would work great for them. 5) The wand retracts more than what is shown in the picture. It retracts to a length that is more than comfortable for a person to stand upright and vacuum. 6) There is a large lever on the sweeper end that you can use to switch from bare floor to carpet and back again. However, this vacuum is really better for bare floors (tile, wood, etc.) than it is for carpeting. It would take a while to vacuum a large carpeted room and it seems to take quite a bit of effort to push on the carpet even with the correct switch engaged. You'll want to go back to an upright if you have carpet. 7) Having said that, I do have carpeted stairs going to the basement and this worked GREAT for that. The vacuum is incredibly light and you can just carry it with you when you go up and down stairs. Again, this would work really well for an older person. 8) There are three wheels on the bottom of the vacuum. Two big ones on the end and a small one right in the middle of the vacuum. The smaller wheel enables the vacuum to lay horizontal as you're dragging it around. 9) There is a bag change indicator light on the front that turns orange when you need to change the bag. I haven't had this before and have had some dust-ups (pun intended) when I tried to change a bag that was too full on another vacuum. 10) The vacuum has a pretty small profile so storing it has not been a problem. Things you may want to think about: 1) The vacuum requires two different filters. I haven't had to clean the filters yet because this vacuum is so new. The two filters and their Bissel part numbers are pre-motor filter (203-8426) and post-motor filter (203-8427). According to the manual, the filters are removable, can be washed by hand and then replaced. I assume you would only need to buy new filters if they became damaged or torn in some fashion. 2) This is a bagged vacuum (Bissel part number 213-8425). The vacuum comes with three bags already (one inside and two extra). Amazon sells the bags and the price is more than reasonable. Just put in that part number and you will find plenty of bag options. 2) This is a vacuum for your house only. It would not stand up to cleaning your garage or any outside application. The manual specifically says that trying to vacuum things like large rocks, plaster, concrete or ashes will damage the motor. You could use it to vacuum the inside of your car but if you've got a large amount of the materials listed above in the car, you won't want to use it for that either.

works great,nice and light.
