Bissell 3-in-1 Stick Vacuum Review

I first saw this at Walmart during their day-after Thanksgiving sale two years ago.  I bought two and left one in our bathroom and one for our kitchen.  I can't tell you how awesome it is to have this handy and small-ish vacuum to just pull out as-needed for easy jobs on hard-wood and linoleum floors.  We have young children in our house and there are always crumbs falling on the floor at lunch, dinner, etc.  A swiffer doesn't pick that stuff up but this does.  My husband cuts our boys' hair and having a second Bissell 3-in-1 stick vacuum in the bathroom upstairs keeps our floors much neater (and has my husband cleaning up more too since it is so convenient and lightweight).  A friend of mine bought one to use at her cottage since it has the tightwoven carpeting.  This would not work on carpet (unless you consider it a dustbuster to get into corners).  Hard wood flooring and linoleum are your best bet.  I would only use this in addition to a regular vacuum. It's intended to be the sidekick to your regular cleaning and for that I give it 4 stars.  You do need to replace the filter once in awhile and just dump it out after using it.  The filters are cheap at Walmart.
