Bissel 3910 better than Dyson and Hoover I purchased this product on Aug 14, 2008. So far I had the vacuum for a month now and have been very please the way it cleans my carpet and hardwood floors. I've had a Hoover vacuum all these years and the very first thing that go out is the roller brush. I bought another Hoover last year and the same thing happened the roller brush on the bottom went out. I've tried the Dyson vacuum at circuit city but seems the sunction is weak. My suggestion would be to always do proper maintenance on whatever vacuum you have and always clean the roller brush on the bottom after each use. It's great, except one very important thing. I thought I did a decent amount of research on buying a vacuum. I decided on this Bissell Model and I bought it. It is exactly what everything says it is. My one mistake, and a huge flaw in this vacuum, is that it is REALLY LOUD. I'm talkin' "floor sander" loud. I thought my neighbors were going to knock on my door and ask me what the H I was doing.
My mistake for not asking but, I just didn't see it in any reviews.
I want to emphasize that Bissell did not misrepresent itself in any way at all. It's just a loud vacuum cleaner and I hope K Mart will let me return it.
***Please add "noise level" or "quiet" to your searches.*** Best vacumm ever! After doing a lot of research and reading many reviews, I decided to buy the Bissell 3910 vacumm cleaner. I'm so glad I did - it's the best vacumm cleaner I have ever used. It picks up so much and is very easy to clean. I would definitely recommend this vacumm cleaner to anybody - it's a great value as well! Great for carpet but not for bare floors. Love this vacuum for carpet only. Do not like it for bare floors. When sweeping our kitchen/dining area which is ceramic tile, I can feel the dirt being thrown back at my legs. I can also see the dog hair blowing out the back of the vacuum base. I have the vacuum set on the "bare floor, low cleaning" position, all filters are clean, the dirt cup is empty and there are no clogs. I think the problem is that the rotating brush does not stop rotating. On my old vacuum, the rotating brush did not spin on the bare floor setting. I've gone back to the old fashion corn broom and dust pan for my kitchen. Great device I had this vacuum for a year and it still operates like new. The dirt is easily removed from the front of the vacuum and the HEPA filter is still good.
