The foam filter also comes in a Febreze-brand variant, which is advertised to keep odors down in your home, although we don’t currently test for this. Both filters are sold separately. Post-motor (HEPA) filter is not washable. This should be replaced every three to six months. Just like the foam pre-motor filter, you can also get this part as Febreze-scented.

Design

It’s made from mostly hard plastic, except for its metal wand, but it could feel more sturdy. This vacuum has a single-hand stick grip, which some users may prefer, and there’s suction control accessible on its handle. The head of the vacuum has a headlight while the crevice tool has a LED light near the brush so you can illuminate hard-to-reach, possibly dark areas.

Filter

Post-motor (HEPA) filter: This filter can’t be washed. You have access to it once you remove the dirt compartment, and you just need to twist it to take it out. If dust/debris accumulates on it, gently tap the filter against a trash container to remove it.

Pre-motor filters: These filters are found under the top cover of the of the dirt compartment. They can be washed with a light detergent when needed, but they need to dry for 24 hours before reuse.

Brush

There are a few tools that come with the BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Plus. There’s a soft bristle brush that you can also use to clean upholstery. The crevice tool also has an LED light on the end of it so you can better see what you’re cleaning in dark and dusty areas.

Brushroll

The brushroll can be removed but you need a Philips screwdriver to remove the 10 screws that hold in the base cover. After that, you can remove the brushroll belt that holds it in place, and you can pull or cut out debris or hair tangled around the brush.

Dirt compartment

The top cover twists off and it empties from the bottom. You can also remove the cyclone cylinder and wash it with warm water, but remember to let it dry for 24 hours before using it again.

Brushroll belt

Just like the brushroll, you need to take out all the screws first to access this part. The belt may need to be removed if there’s any clogged debris or tangled hair on the brushroll. It just needs to be inspected to see if it’s damaged or needs replacing.

Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Rewind upright vacuum cleaner 27909 Performance review

If you’re looking for an upright vacuum that does a better job on bare floors, take a look at the BISSELL CleanView Swivel Pet. The BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Plus is okay on bare floors. It’s easily able to pick up small debris like rice but it has a bit more of a problem picking up larger debris like cereal as it gets caught in the vacuum’s front cover as well as near the end of the tunnel.

The BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Plus is great on high-pile carpet. It’s able to pick up most pet hair. It struggles a bit more with small and large debris, but at least its performance stays fairly consistent as the dirt compartment fills.

The BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Plus is great on low-pile carpet. It slightly struggles to pick up small debris like baking soda and there’s even some residue left behind within the connector between the wand and hose. However, it’s still able to pick up most small and large debris even as the dirt compartment fills. It can also pick up pet hair without a problem. If you want an upright vacuum that’s even better on low-pile carpet, check out the Shark Rotator Powered Lift-Away Upright.

Excellent Bagless Vaccum with Turbo Plus!!!

BISSELL – Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Bagless Upright Vacuum was very easy to assemble. It came with nicely packaged and various add-on tools Dusting brush, wand, motorized brush and LED lighted crevice tool.

We have tried many of the vacuum brands and there were certain things we didn’t like about it. We bought this vacuum and used it for more than 2 weeks now. It outperforms other vacuums by far. With the other vacuums the brushes were always getting filed with hair from our dog and my wife / daughter’s long hair, and we always had to reach inside the canister to pull out debris. In Pet Hair Eraser, nothing on the brush and the canister empties out perfectly. It makes our carpet look beautiful when we are done. It is easy to maneuver and suck out all debris really well. We can’t say enough good about this vacuum.

I have tried in carpet, hard floors and it works really great. This vacuum comes with bagless technology and no bags to buy or replace. Creative tool and dusting brush are really good add-ons which allow you to clean tight spaces, stairs and flat surfaces. It has 0.2-gallon dust cup and holds lot of dirt, so you can empty it less. It has motorized brush for tough tasks and lifts stubborn pet hair and ground-in dirt from surfaces while powerful suction carries it away.

It has strong suction power from start to finish and Cyclonic technology separates dirt from the air, preventing it from clogging filters and ensuring consistently strong suction power. The 30″ cord enables you to clean a large area before needing to change outlets. The Wand for cleaning above the floor extends to clean ceiling fans and other hard-to-reach places. With a 120V motor, you can achieve reliable suction and helps you keep your home clean.

If you have pets, please don’t look back and buy this vacuum.
