A good range of accessories come with and more available to purchase. The SEBO video on You tube explains how to take care of the Vacuum, easy to follow. My previous SEBO cleaner was still working after 30 years. I chose to retire it for a younger model. Sebo have replacement parts readily available for their cleaners

cord needs an 5mt extension added to reach everywhere in my house if I don't want to stop and move the plug. Yes it stops now and then when roller detects something blocking (easy fix). But have a look at the attached photos of the dog hair left by my small dog being patted by a friend.

so you need to have strong wrists and hands to keep it moving in the direction you want. I would not recommend this vacuum for middle aged people for this reason alone.

half the time & makes a crazy highpitched whirring noise on carpet mode. The picture of the woman reaching out to vacuum at a distance is misleading - the product falls over very easily when trying to vacuum with an attachment for dusting etc. The main head is big and cumbersome so won’t go under minor things. The attachments fall off the main body all the time. The cord is like 1.5m less than previous vacuums so need an extension cord at all times. The brush piece inner plastic scratches surfaces. Vacuuming under furniture such as a bed is super annoying as the attachments are only small pieces- so save your old large vacuum head attachment or get a universal one. This is gonna take some major getting used to

for , however time consuming when using due liquid capacities. I purchased from Thomo's Betta Electrical in Rockhampton and they would not match The Good Guys pricing of $80.00 less. Unfortunately The Good Guys had sold out of there stock.
A few months ago I purchased a Bissell Revolution Hydrosteam, Model no 3670F this product works like a dream and is correctly designed, engineered and tested to be practical and a asset to making house cleaning easy, hence the massive DISAPOINTMENT. BISSELL HAS DEFINITELY DROPPED THERE "LEADING EDGE" on this model of the crosswave HF2.

told it would cost $218. This includes freight to and from Melbourne plus repairs if possible. They say if it can't be repaied a full refund is given. Very Fair. My issue is Tineco want me to pay via direct deposit or PayPal but will not issue me with an invoice. Is it unreasonable to require one?

I have a fetish for decent vacuum cleaners. 20 year old Dyson wanted long service leave so I brought a brand new LG, which lasted 4 months. 4bd room… Read more
house, 1/2 carpet and lino. And 3 dogs 1 cat. I went to Betta electrical and purchased the Shark PowerDetect Powered Lift Away. Fantastic, on paper it couldn't be any better. I think it lost suction just lifting it out of the box into the real world. I don't know if there's something wrong with it, but I have to clean the filters around every two weeks. NOT 6 monthly like advised. It lasted maybe 6 months before the turbo head developed a horrendous pig squeal. It developed a dry bearing in the soft roller and that's when I found out that Shark don't have replacement parts like Dyson's or Miele do. At the time it cost me just over 600 ish dollars and it is the most expensive inanimate object I've ever brought. The "better than sliced bread" sensors that detect surface change and walls etc. if you sneeze hard enough or the head hits a wall, sensors light up, drops suction and it turns into a professional ar$eH0le. I clean the soft roller every 2 weeks and nothing stops it from jamming up, I have to stop CONSTANTLY, drop and pull it out, all the dander and lint type stuff stop the roller from turning. All the bigger stuff, like grains of rice successfully jam further up! The carpet, hard floor ,rug etc buttons on the handle... If you breathe on it too hard it changes what ever preference you had it on.So it sounds like an asthmatic bulldog with hayfever when it's fluctuating motor speed. It is just an expensive poxy carpet gremlin that would be OK for a single person in a tiny house maybe, with a car foot mat for carpet. It's never been abused or neglected in anyway and I have only used it in the way that's recommended. Great for families, carpet with pets. It is a white hot smoking heaping pile of abandoned dreams and aspirations. Don't do it to yourself. The resentment you feel when a vacuum having a childish footstomp when it doesn't want to work, really starts to wind you up and ruins your day. This favour to man kind is meant to do all these different things and I have first hand knowledge that it does NOT 1 THING well. It just blows at everything . ( I nearly said it sucked, but I don't want to give anyone false hope)

function is brilliant too. I can vacuum and mop the kitchen floor in a couple of minutes and it dries so quickly, about 5 minutes. I bought 2 extra rollers and filters as they can take more than 24 hours to dry out properly, so I constantly have a new clean, dry roller and filter in the machine. The only huge down fall to this product is that you must use bissell cleaning products in it only or it voids your warranty. This was not made clear on the website, you kind of have to search the small print for this. But all in all, I love this floor cleaner. It does a great job and it’s a huge time saver. I recommend it.

be last longer but not malfunction after 2years. This vacuum mop is also too wet which leaving water marks on the floor. Specially when it tries to mop the corners, too much water coming out. You would not pick up this issue until you buy another vacuum mop brand to be able to compare. Steaming function is good idea but when you have wood floors then this function is useless. Overall not recommended to buy for such a price.

wow. We did our friends carpet after her little dogs kept having accidents on it, she was amazed as well to see results, the carpet came up nicer then when she moved in. The Bissell solutions smell clean and fresh after cleaning for days, weeks. Easy to use, pretty straightforward how to fill and empty. After reading a particular review saying ‘renters dream’ is what sold us to purchase it. We highly recommended this machine to anyone with carpets. We will never need to pay anyone from here on in to clean our carpets. Money well spent on this machine we have nic named our ‘Bissell Beast’. LOVE it.

I'm very disappointed as reviews I had read seemed positive. Very short cable - I have attached a 10m extension lead so I don't have to change sockets for every room in the house. Cleans carpets well, for the areas it can reach. Wooden floors also ok but the head is so large it can't access small spaces eg round toilet or bathroom fixtures.

need vacuum cleaners.
I have a vacuum cleaner for every occasion it appears.
I have been waiting for this one to go on sale as I spoke to a sales person before I bought a Robo rock and I really loved the features. The only thing I didn’t like was the Call but I thought hey I’m gonna give it a go went on sale and it cleans really well. I give it that it’s a little bit fiddly with the components.
I had buyers regret. I don’t get this very often as I mentioned. I do have a toddler and I do clean when my little one is down for a nap and this vacuum cleaner. It is impossible. It is ridiculously loud when I say loud. I mean really loud.
I rang up to troubleshoot and they said I could send it back but sending it back. It’s gonna be a third of the cost of the purchase. I had. It checked out for sound wise decibels and it was right on what they advertise but it is so loud you have to make sure that the fluid is kept up topped up as much as you can to keep the sound down but it’s still so loud would I buy it again absolutely not.
I did contact the store and they would not send it back for me because I thought the change of mind made me they were included and sending it back but I’ve just talking to Australian Post. You’re looking about $80-$90 because of the weight of the vacuum cleaner.. so they’re 60 day guarantee you’re better off just taking a loss and selling it on marketplace. I think that’s what they hope you’re gonna do. It’s not that it doesn’t do a good job it’s just it’s deafening loud and I live with a very loud child and a person that uses power tools a lot so for me to say something as loud it’s loud.
I am looking for a new vacuum cleaner as I really use that one. I would rather use my stick vacuum and my steam mop separately cause the noise factor that’s how loud it is.

floor very well. It just did minor surface clean at best. The machine was cleaned after every use and stored in laundry next to vacuum on charge. Device has now failed with an internal fan error. $700 piece of junk. Bissell have said to post it from NSW to VIC to their repair centre to be assessed but the cost of shipping a bulky item and the cost of the assessment outweigh the cost of the device. Very Poor!!!

intuitive to use - fill up the clean tank with warm water and Bissell solution, unlock the upright stand with the foot pedal, spray the solution back and forth and repeat again to extract the solution from the carpet. The slower you go, the better the results. The amount of dirt that can be collected in the dirty tank is unbelievable - even after a thorough powerhead vacuum. It does good job with new stains and also old stains if you use Bissell Oxyboost additive and pre-treatment. The water extraction is efficient and carpets dry in 2-3 hours. Cleaning the head is easy enough as the extraction nozzle clips off and roller brush comes out with one screw for a rinse. It works well on flat rugs and low pile rugs, but no experience with shaggy rugs. It will also work on chairs if they're flat.
Only downsides are the slight leaks during use (keep it on a towel when standing upright), the clumsy emptying of the dirty water tank and small capacity of the clean tank which means you have to rinse and refill frequently, even for a small room. However this is only designed for small jobs and I can easily see a bigger tank as adding unneeded weight. That's why Bissell made the ProHeat x2 and Big Green for larger areas.

well. The amount of dust that you will see in the canister after vacuuming will astound you. Has great suction and also lots of attachments you can use with the hose. The power cord could be longer though as you do need an extension cord to get to multiple spaces or vacuum a big room. The cord comes out the bottom which is also a pet peeve as it’s easy to run over. This is why it loses one star unfortuantely! Would be great as a car vacuum also!! UPDATE - the vaccum gets Blocked up all the time - not as good as I thought - had to replace it

video on YouTube is highly persuasive! I checked out various reviews as well, but did not get a clear mandate. Giving it the benefit of the doubt, and acknowledging the generally accepted superior reputation of German products, I bought a SEBO Dart 2, preferring it over the Australian Tennant. Wrong decision! The machine is OK for domestic cleaning, but certainly not for commercial work. There were several problems:
(a) its cord was far shorter than regular backpacks, necessitating an extension cord;
(b) it could not suck anything more than about half a centimetre cube - its opening was simply not big enough;
(c) It sucked in from the right hand end but not from the left;
(d) the suction power was poor (I kept the machine very clean, emptying the bag before every job and following all instructions);
(d) its much touted orange and green lights that were to indicate right height of the machine vis-a-vis the carpet/floor was unhelpful;
(e) Withing a month both orange and green lights remained on simultaneously anyway, so they were useless;
(f) the machine died just after 1 year was over, i.e., immediately after the guarantee period ran out.
I can go on, but you get the drift!
Bottom line - stay away from this machine. The humble back-pack is superior, and at half the price too!
