We received the vacuum promptly and it was extremely easy to set up. It is light weight and the suction seems very good, after a few brief uses. It is also quite easy to empty the debris after use. We are quite pleased w/ this purchase.

I have pets & hard wood floors/tile throughout the house. So hair gets under furniture which I had to move in order to sweep it up! I have tried a couple of vacuum cleaners designated for hard flooring but one only picked up dust and got clogged easily, the other one...well, it was bag-less so the filters (all of them) got clogged easily and neither of them were able to reach under the furniture. THIS one though, the BISSELL ZING CANISTER VACUUM, BLOWS ME AWAY! With the adjustable wand and different types of attachments, I am able to get under the furniture to vacuum without having to move it! My boyfriend and nephew laughed at me when they saw the size of it and they just knew it wasn't going to cut it! After I vacuumed the entire house, including window sills, ceiling fans, area rugs & the couches, they were floored! LoL at them! It's lightweight design is very helpful for me to carry around since I have a bad back, plus it rolls around too! This little vacuum cleaner deserves 10 stars because we have special needs with having a house full of animals; 2 cats and 2 dogs; & 3 boys every other weekend that eat snacks on the couch and leave lots of crumbs behind (and so do my nephew and boyfriend!)! I vacuum 2-3 times a week now without complaining or needing help with moving some of the furniture and to be honest with you, the air quality in the house seems to be much better now too! I would like to be able to add a 2nd hose to it and am looking for an attachment that actually has brushes that rotate (one of our rugs is a different, thicker texture so I have to break out the other vacuum just for that rug). I'm quite sure that you will love this vacuum as much as I do! 10 STARS!!!!!!!

So I waited a while to review this vacuum because I have had such little luck with vacuums in the past and have to buy a new one about every 2 years. I was attracted to the small size of this one and the prospect of mounting it to the wall. I live in a small apartment and every square inch counts :) I was slightly concerned after reading the reviews, but figured to give it a try anyway.

I have had it for 3 months now and it works as well as it did the first day. I have 3 cats, a small dog and two children, so I vacuum A LOT. The small cup size doesn't bother me at all. Takes only a few seconds to empty it and keep going. The roller on the bottom gets tangled with hair, but it is so much easier to remove than from previous vacuums I had. And best of all, it's easy to use: nothing to pull behind you (like my previous canister vacuum) and not to bulky to push in front of you (like my previous full sized vacuum). I actually enjoy vacuuming now :)
I used it to vacuum my car once also. Takes a little longer than using one of those vacuums at the gas station, but it works really well and I was satisfied with the result.

I can recommend this vacuum and not just for apartment owners. I would definitely use this one in a house as well. Great little vacuum and especially for the price!

UPDATE 03-05-2016:
After owning this little gem for 1 years now, I felt compelled to write another update. Since I've gotten it, I never cleaned the filter, although it says to do that monthly. Well, when my vacuum started losing SOME (yes, only SOME) of its suction, I figured it was time. Having long hair, I do clean the brush on a regular basis, which is extremely easy to do, unlike with other vacuums I've owned before. Anyway, last week I cleaned the whole thing, filters and all, which took me less than 5 minutes, and I just used it for the first time since. It was like having a brand new vacuum! I am highly impressed with this vacuum and continue to recommend it! Seriously, this is the best vacuum I've ever owned!

I received this vacuum yesterday and after trying it out around the first floor of my ~1100 ft2 house, I am VERY happy to have purchased it!  I can't judge its durability since I've only used it once, but it did a great job on my hardwood floors, tile, and low-pile area rugs picking up cat hair, cat litter, dust, and kitchen crumbs.  The vacuum is very lightweight and pivots so nicely that it easily maneuvers into small spaces, under furniture, and around edges and various items, where it continued to do a great job sucking everything up.  Noise was not too loud, either.  This will not replace a regular upright vacuum since there are no attachments for vacuuming things like baseboard trim etc, and it may not be strong enough for carpets to use exclusively on those.  BUT, for more frequent cleaning and quick touchups, it's perfect - gets the job done with no need to drag out the heavy, bulky upright vacuum and lug it up and down stairs!  Previously, I had to bend over and vacuum my hardwood and tile floors by hand with the upright's attachment nozzle to get them clean, but that was a time-consuming and back-breaking task that I can't continue with a baby on the way!  This vacuum will be perfect for avoiding that.  I also tried it on about 5 of my carpeted stairs, which are regular pile carpet, and it seemed to work well there too (although those had been vacuumed more recently anyway so it was hard to tell).  Plus, the pivoting head made it easy to vacuum the carpet on the stair risers - big bonus!  The Flair is light enough for me to easily handle at 8 months pregnant and it can be hung on the back of a door for convenient storage in small spaces.  Emptying the dirt cup and cleaning the filter was easy too, which you're supposed to do after each use since the cup (and vacuum) is small.  Highly recommend this item...

I use this on a variety of floors & love it & all the attachments. I highly recommend it as the best, light-weight vacuum I have ever used. Very powerful, not too noisy, easy to empty. I use the floor attachment on my hardwood floors & it works very, very well. The rugs feel sooo soft after I vacuum with the Rocket!!

For starters, I did read the reviews before I purchased the 5770, and I was not put off by people complaining about the heaviness. I have had several Hoover vacs, plus a $2000 Thermax (piece of junk), and for $200+ this vacuum beats all of them. Yes, it's heavy, but not any heavier than anything else I've owned.

We have had 6-8 cats for the 10 years we've been in our home which came with wall to wall Berber carpeting in a cream color on 2 of the levels. You can only imagine what it looks like now! I used the Bissell today for the first time (after thoroughly reading the instructions), and the amount of gunk it picked up was embarrassing. I did not find the container difficult to empty and I got so carried away I went way past the fill line. We did the plastic bag trick and easily got all the stuff out. I only did part of the upstairs carpet, used the extensions to get cobwebs and ceiling dust and filled the container 3 times. I knew that my old Hoover was doing a crappy job, but this is ridiculous.

I love the 5770, and I can't find anything negative to say about it. My husband was predisposed to dislike it, because he didn't want to spend the money on a new vacuum, so rather than buy the $400 version, I bought the less expensive one, and he agreed it did a better job than any other vac we've had.

I like the fact that you can remove the dirt container and wash it thoroughly, we well as the filter, and it may be wishful thinking as an allergy sufferer but cat lover, that the air is fresher in my bedroom (actually, the cat's room) and I haven't sneezed since I vacuumed.

Tomorrow we give it the acid test - the stairs - but I feel completely confident that the turbo brush (which did detach once or twice-so what?), crevice tool and coil will give them the cleaning they so desperately need!

If in the future I become disenchanted with this vacuum I will update this review, but for now I'm completely satisfied and would recommend it to anyone with allergies and/or pets.

I picked this vacuum model because it was a Consumer Reports #1 or 2 pick a year ago when I got it. Someone was selling a used/refurb one for a great price on Amazon (it retailed over $200, maybe $300 at Sears, IIRC).
I have to say, I love this vacuum - I've had it a year now, and it really sucks! In a good way! ;-) My hubby accuses me of using my vacuums like a bush hog - just run over anything. I won't admit it to him, but he's right. lol. This thing picks up just about anything reasonable, some unreasonable.
I love not having to fool with bags. The canister comes off the front easily and dumps from the bottom into the garbage. If you waited too long to empty it, you might have to disassemble the canister a bit to get all out, but it's not hard. That is one thing I miss from my old vac - it had an indicator light that told you when the canister needed emptying. But they don't make vacuums anymore (LG). This one works great, I just have to watch more carefully. Overall, I think it's been a great buy!

I bought this vacuum for my condo and I absolutely love it!  The (Amazon) consumer rated this as an exceptional product and I can concur!  I highly recommend this vacuum!

What a wonderful vacuum cleaner!!  I used one in Florida at a home I stayed in for a weekend.  The Oreck had the most suction I'd ever seen in a vacuum.  I waited for a sale on Amazon and grabbed this up.  Of course I wanted to use it immediately to see if I'd feel I'd have to return it due to being disappointed. I had just baked and cleaned up prior to this arriving.  Tossed some flour on my hardwood kitchen floor, it all came up with out any blowing around.  So darn light and at to move on the hardwood floors, along with cleaning everything up, I was amazed.  Since the reviews have all been variable on whether it works on shag, I decided I'd check that out too.  I have a long shag rug on hardwood in my den, and put it to work.  I heard a lot of dirt going up the arm of the vacuum.  It is a little hard to push and pull due to the suction, but it seems to suck up the dirt much better than the beater bar Kenmore I've been using.  My experience from using this over a month has been excellent.  I'd have kept it just for the wonderful job it does in the hard wood floors, even if I don't like the job on my shag...but it works great on my shag carpet too.  Yes, it is very loud, but as long as it cleans as well as it does I can live with the noise.  I am extremely pleased with this vacuum!

I'm very pleased with the performance of this vacuum!  It is small, light to carry when needed and has good suction!  I love the telescoping wand and the cord retraction features. The only thing lacking is a good dust brush, but I have one from an old machine, so it's not a big deal.  For the price, you can't beat this little machine.

I ordered this vacuum when my old one quit because of all the great reviews.  I love it!!
I have had it for about 3 weeks and have used it a couple of times per week.  I am continually amazed at how much it picks up every single time.  It is super easy to empty into the trash and snap the canister back into place.  I was sceptical about going to a bagless, but so far I am so impressed I have no plans to ever go back to buying/changing vacuum cleaner bags!  I can't recommend this vacuum enough, but will update this review if/when my opinion changes after more time with it.

I love this vacuum! I always wanted a Dyson vacuum, but my mother-in-law told me she preferred her Shark to her Dyson, so I did some research. I'm really happy I went with this vacuum. It is very lightweight and powerful, has a long cord, has a lot of suction and makes cleaning super easy. I have a god that sheds a lot, and this vacuum takes care of it easily. I like the bag-free design, it is satisfying to see how much you just sucked up. The price was great too. This is the best vacuum I've ever owned, I recommend it to everyone.

I am sold on bagged vacuums and especially this Hoover vacuum.  I had a Dirt Devil with HEPA filter prior, and though it was a beast of a vacuum, I hated having to clear out the canister and clean the filter - was a dusty situation!  This Hoover vacuum adjusts very well to delicate wool rugs and hard wood floors with its autoheight adjust feature and the air smells clean after.  I love this vacuum so far, it was speedily delivered and was easy to assemble.  But, it is too early to give a 5 star rating - if it holds out for the 7+ years my Dirt Devil did, then it just may get the A+ evaluation.

I just purchased the Dyson DC24 vacuum, and I LOVE IT!  It lives up to all its expectations and claims and exceeds some as well!  It is very powerful, don't let its size fool you!  Because it is a compact vacuum, it has a much smaller canister capacity than it's larger counterparts, but what it lacks in capacity it more than makes up for in how easily store-able and carry-able it is!  If you have a large house and also adequate storage for a larger vacuum, you might want to go for the DC-25, but for me it is perfect! (1300 sq foot home with very little storage space for a vacuum)  I have two cats (long and short hair), a dog, a toddler, and a husband, and it has no problems tackling anything any of them can throw at me! (If only it mopped too!)  The only downside I have encountered is that the cord is not very long, and so to reach all the corners of my house I have to change outlets a couple times, but for me that is a small price to pay for a vacuum that does not make me mad!  And did I mention, no filters to replace and no belts to replace (no more burnt rubber smell!), so there is no more out of pocket expense than the cost of the vacuum itself!  That alone to me justifies buying a more expensive (and superior) vacuum.  I love my Dyson! :D

I ordered this vacuum on a whim because we had been wanting a second vacuum (multi level house, multi lazy family members) to keep on another floor. With the price of this Bissell being as low as it was, I figured it wouldn't be my main vacuum. Boy was I wrong! The amount of suction is amazing! We have 2 dogs and 4 cats and hardwood floors. Other vacuums usually blow the hair and dust around but not this guy! It actually sucks up ALL the dirt and hair! The attachment makes vacuuming the couch a breeze! We've only had it a few weeks but it gets used almost daily. I will update if it starts to lose suction, but right now I couldn't be happier!

The power/ suction on this vacuum is great.  The only drawback was seeing just how much dust was in my carpet that I didn't even realize was there!  I also like the easy lift out and carry canister with the long wand/attachments because it's easy on the back to stand and vacuum baseboards.  I bought this as a 2nd vacuum for my basement/ game room, but like it so much I'm keeping it upstairs and moving my Oreck down for basement duty.

This is the best vacuum I've used in a very long time, it really picks up the dirt, quickly & easily and it's so light weight (6.3 pounds).

I'm disabled and I don't enjoy struggling with heavy, clumsy appliances and the Electrolux Ergorapido Ultra Power Lithium Upright Vacuum is not heavy and it maneuvers like a dream.

It has LED headlights so I can see & get that dirt that I might have missed in the past, under the furniture and in those dark corners.

It has a charging stand that totally charged my new Vacuum in less than 4 hours and the Lithium ION Battery supplies a powerful 25.2 volts with a runtime of 60 minutes and there is no cord for me to struggle with, CORDLESS!!!

I thought my place was fairly clean, but the Bag-less cyclonic system picked up so much dust and dirt with it's consistent suction power and in such a fast time.  I cleaned up 5 rooms in about 45 minutes and after my place looked spotless, I emptied the dust container and was shocked just how much dust and dirt had been in my place.

I ordered the Electrolux Ergorapido Ultra Power Lithium Upright Vacuum, because I've known the Electrolux name my whole life, they were an old company when I was a little kid, half a century ago!  I expected Quality and that's what I got, amazing power and it's easy to use.

 I will be using my new vacuum weekly from now on, because cleaning is NOT a chore any longer with this Great Cordless Vacuum.
