It works great until the belt breaks and you have to take it apart.  I cannot find anyone who services these.  The screws on the bottom of the vacuum are so tight that I can't get all  of them out or the screws are stripped.  Up until now, I loved it.  But don't let it break down!!

don't buy this belt as it breaks where it gets buckled.  glass breaks, sticks break, hearts break, but belts shouldn't break!

Installed this product on my tractor before the 2018 mowing season in Austin Texas.  We mow aboit once a week...1/2 acre.  The belt just broke after maybe 3 months of use.  The last oem belt had worked since I purchased the tractor and in fact never broke.  It just stretched.  I need a product that lasts longer and is more dependable.

I really liked it for the first month I had it and would have given it 5 stars but like a few others, the belt loop failed.
I noticed it yesterday and took pictures of where the belt loop webbing was sewn down right on the edge of the webbing and the webbing was pulling loose from the stitching.
(See picture)
Today it fell off my belt with the webbing completely frayed from the stitching. (other pictures)
And yesterday I found out that you can only return it within 30 days, mine lasted 40 days.
If you get one where the stitching is right on the end of the webbing belt loop, keep an eye on it.
It is very nice, other than the manufacturing flaw that a few of us have found.

Like it except stitching comes apart very easily when you cut the belt to size - other than that price is great and it works well

I would give it 5 stars, since the functionality is great, BUT ... I bought this one to replace one that died after only about 18 months. So why would I buy the same one that died too soon?  Simple ... spare parts and I have a bunch of belts already.

The loop broke of first time I used the belt. But for the little that the belt costs, it does what's it's supposed to do.

This vacuum did a great job in cleaning the carpet when we bought it.  We have two dogs, so it definitely would get a workout when it was in use.  Unfortunately, the belt on this broke after just a couple year's use and once that happens it's a dead vacuum - no repair belt.  We purchased this back when it was $300, so that was a very expensive vacuum for only lasting a couple of years.  I won't be buying another Bissell.

Worked quite well with very occasional use (maybe 6x/year) for about 3 years, but now the buckles which hold the footrest up have broken.  Plastic buckles break all the time on my other items (like backpacks) and I just replace them, but because of how they're sewn onto the chair this will be impossible.  A simple design change would make these replaceable.

It worked great until it broke.  If you don't hold outside properly it  can easily break.

It's a great idea and worked for a while, but after about four months the magnet broke out of the plastic and would not stay glued back in. So now when we lift the lid to use the toilet, we have to lift the little potty seat too.

My son loves it but the belt doesn't last too long before the screws that hold the buckle in place wear out and it falls apart.

Pros: Cheap way to get anything with a 1/4-20 thread (standard tripod thread) out of your hands and onto your belt. Frees your hands to do other things while you work and even a heavy camera setup when on a belt feels very light.

Cons: It worked until it broke. The mechanism that keeps the ball head in the holster relies on a piece of plastic that broke after a few uses. Now if I put the camera into the holster, the piece that's supposed to move in and lock it in place doesn't move in to lock. You can move the piece in yourself, but a slight nudge on the slider means you can drop your whole setup onto the ground.

Yes, it's cheap, but it's now broken and useless. I'll be looking toward other products with better build quality.

First, I want to say I was impressed by the convenience and efficiency of the sweeper. It does have a tendency to become externally dusty itself as it works, since I suppose the brushroller builds up a static charge. However, the problem I have with it is that I used it actually less than ONE HOUR before it encountered something it couldn't immediately 'whip' into its dustcup, and then the drive belt stripped and then snapped. Try to find a replacement belt, folks. Go ahead -- just try!

So, be careful, but aside from that, a pretty nice little convenience.

belt is great but the buckle don't hold up.  Replaced buckles with different model and works much better.
