Product Description

Bissell 1161 Hard Floor Expert Deluxe Canister Vacuum

View larger

With the Bissell Hard Floor Expert Deluxe canister vacuum, you have a specialized, lightweight tool designed to clean delicate surfaces, high and low, with powerful suction. Digital fingertip controls let you reduce suction power for area rugs and other delicate surfaces. Rubber wheels and felt treads won’t scratch or mark floors, and the brush has extra soft bristles so you can clean with peace of mind. The Easy Empty dirt tank, automatic cord rewind, and a full complement of tools make cleaning your hard floors fast and easy. Finally, a vacuum that’s made for your hard floors and your life.

Why should I invest in a canister vacuum?

Canister vacuums are generally lighter and more maneuverable than uprights. They are great for vacuuming under low tables and furniture. The compact design makes them easy to store and to carry on stairs. Many canister vacuums have tools and attachments that clean almost any surface.

What makes it safe for hard floors?

It has nonmarking wheels made of rubber and felt. The brush has softer bristles that are not as tough on hard floors as a typical vacuum brush.

Customers find the vacuum cleaner easy to assemble. They mention that the telescoping wand is intuitively designed, and the power control is easy to use. They also appreciate the small size and lightweight design, making it easy to handle. Customers also like that the vacuum can be used on wooden stairs.

Customers are mixed about the value of the vacuum cleaner. Some mention that it does a great job for such a cheap price, while others say that it is very disappointing and not worth the money. Some say that the filters are expensive and not easy to find.

"...The value is good for the money. This vacuum had good reviews in most places I researched that's why I bought it." Read more

510 customers mention349 positive161 negative

Customers are mixed about the suction of the vacuum cleaner. Some mention that it has high-powered suction, the telescoping wand helps them get to cobwebs, and the adjustable suction settings. In general, the vacuum seems very good, and it's very quiet. The floor attachment with a brush works really well, and with the light weight and strong vacuum, this has replaced my shop. However, others say that it loses all performance and the filter is sticky to the touch.

"...As an aside, with the light weight and strong vacuum, this has replaced my shop vac as my go-to tool for cleaning my car...." Read more

312 customers mention203 positive109 negative

Customers are mixed about the quality of the vacuum cleaner. Some mention that it does an excellent job on hard surface flooring, much better than the typical vacuum cleaner, while others say that the hard surface tool is a terrible design and would never hold up to regular use. The plastic is more flimsy and the rug attachment is worthless.

"...Everything about this vacuum is well-conceived and perfectly executed.First and foremost, IT WORKS...." Read more

"...It is designed for hard floors, and it does a perfect job on hard floors. We have 100% hardwoods and some area rugs and it is perfect for that...." Read more

"...with this product, but after using it a few times it is very disappointing and not worth the money...." Read more

"...This is strong enough to get them up. It also gets any dirt against the wall. It seems good at grabbing whatever gets near it." Read more

311 customers mention100 positive211 negative

Customers are mixed about the length of the vacuum cleaner. Some mention that they appreciate the compact size, the wheels, and the handles, while others say that it is very short. The cord winds up ok, but some say that they need to plug it in a lot because the cord is not long enough to let them vacuum large areas. The canister is small and has to be emptied frequently, but they are ok with that. The vac has a somewhat small trap and the filter and rollers need regular cleaning.

"...My first impression is that the cord is very short. I had to unplug it several times and move the plug to reach other areas...." Read more

"...But, for a hard floor vacuum it is better than I expected. Small, light, great suction, easy to clean dust bin...it fits all the marks...." Read more

"...the second major complaint is this is a bagless vacuum and the bagless area is small...." Read more

"...I used this vacuum exclusively on wood floors.The cord is very short, and I would often have to switch plugs in the same room to get the..." Read more

Great vacuum, for rather cleaner house
5 Stars
Great vacuum, for rather cleaner house
Great cute little vacuum with every detail built to quality, including the hose and accessories. I'm really happy with it. However, the dirt container is small and not super easy to clean (you need to wash and dry the sponge filter once in a while) so if you have furry animals or a lot of other dirt, go for something larger. Cable could be longer too... On a positive side, filter is really great and it holds a really fine dust.
