The Vacuum Cleaner

The Bissell Vacuum Cleaner is known the world over for providing a variety of products that take care of every vacuum cleaning need - with a wide selection of features and pricing that make them accessible to any family budget. The Bissell Company has been in business since 1876, with its first vacuum sweeping product designed by Melville Bissell in response to his wife's request for a better tool with which to keep the carpeted floor of their Grand Rapids, Michigan crockery shop free of sawdust. This was to be the prototype Bissell Vacuum Cleaner that would later evolve into the product line that today services homeowners around the world.

Bissell and the Bissell Vacuum line are household names, well regarded for their powerful Bissell Vacuum Cleaner line and steam-powered carpet cleaners. The Bissell name has become synonymous with deep cleaning of carpets and hard surface floors alike, and the company produces a broad range of products that includes their cleaning tools as well as innovative cleaning formulas that have proven effective in managing some of the worst stains imaginable. Beginning in the 1950s, the Bissell line of cleaning formulas began to dramatically reduce the cleaning time in many homes and commercial locations. With upright units, canister vacuums, and an innovative product line, Bissell Vacuum is considered by many to be the standard bearer for quality cleaning products at an affordable price.

Every Bissell Vacuum is built with the consumer need for lightweight, reliable cleaning in mind. For more than a century, Bissell has pursued every avenue of innovation that they could find to create the Bissell Vacuum Cleaner line that today helps millions of homeowners to keep their houses clean. With innovative features like their cross-action brush for easy dirt removal, and their finely-constructed hoses and attachments for easy access to even the hardest to reach spots in the home, a Bissell Vacuum Cleaner remains one of the most popular tools of choice for many around the globe.

The company takes pride in the ability of every Bissell vacuum to remove pollen and other allergens from the air. More and more consumers are concerned with allergies and other health matters, and time has proven that a Bissell Vacuum Cleaner is a helpful addition to every home's arsenal of tools to prevent sickness. The breath of uses to which the Bissell vacuum can be put may be a reason for one common consumer complaint - many say that it takes too long to read the instruction manual. Another complain that is sometimes lodged against certain Bissell vacuum models is the time involved in assembling the product, and the occasional replacement that is required for the HEPA filter.

Even with those complaints taken into consideration, the Bissell vacuum still receives high marks from most consumers and product reviewers. Bissell Vacuum Cleaners continue to stay on the cutting edge of cleaning technology, with each new model offering improvements over previous models - and often at greater savings. As happy as Ann Bissell was to have Melville assist her in cleaning their shop, one can't help but think that she would be even more pleased to see how far her husband's creation has come in the century since that time.
