which Consumer REports scores this vacuum?
780356
It was the second highest rated in consumer reports. I really like it. Light weight but heavy duty when vacuuming the carpet and bare floors.

I have had both. You can read my reviews; five stars for Bissell and one for Hoover. Not only is the Hoover lower grade plastic, but it also has a computer which malfunctions after a number of uses. Bad design!

I just took ours to a local vacuum store that carried the brand; it was also where I bought it from but that shouldn't matter. Would have to find a shop that sold them however. Better find one though since you will need to take it in any time it gets clogged due to poor design...(can you tell I didn't like ours?...)

Sorry, haven't purchased any yet? Did see that Sears also carries this vacuum

It has good suction. My original comment was unfavorable. The fault was mine. I did not have the bag installed correctly. The sweeper is very much up to Hoover standards!

I'm sorry that i can't offer you a comparison. I like how this bissell cleans, i like all the add-on tools, and the heavy duty sturdiness. It's heavy, practically needs its own garage, and is bulky. We think it's worth the effort. Other reviewers who like it helped me select this model, and we don't regret the purchase especially at the reasonable price. Good luck to you!

Don't buy an Electrolux, their service after the sale is atrocious. As long as you don't have a problem it's an average vacuum. If you have trouble it is well below average.

Must be. Like you, I had one for many many years and it did everything I needed and more. It finally died and went to vacuum heaven. I was going to buy this new version until I saw the reviews. Now I don't know what to do.

I am go glad I can help.Like you, I use the reviews (recent reviews that is) as a testament to a real user. I will admit I don't know why Amazon doesn't filter out the people who use this avenue to epistolize ridiculous comments that are completely useless! LOLI absolutely adore this little vacuum and it is very strong on suction.You will enjoy it.Tammy

No idea, but performance is probably the real issue & this very compact machine produces an amazing amount of suction. We occasionally have to turn it down to keep it from lifting carpets.

I agree with Carol. This is the only vacuum I've used over 30ish years. I've had to replace it once or twice. I run mine year round. The flaps wear out but are cheap and easily replaced, but don't need replacing very often. Will only use this type of vac. Great for the price and far better than the pricey ones.

Yes, it is. It is very well designed and the use of HEPA in the title would suggest that they will be libel of false advertising if it is not the case. Go to the manufacturers web-site: http://www.pro-team.com/vacuums/?style=1&id=106576

Sorry I haven't had the Eureka Boss for over 8 years I use the Smart Choice Vacuum Cleaner (Carpet Pro Commercial), Model: CPU-2, 120V AC 60 Hz, Power: 10 Amps, Made in China.Still happy with this purchase after 5 years of use. I doubt that a 16 Amp rated motor would clean any better, just my thought.

Now I'm confused. Some of you are saying the Bissell 3920 is the best vacuum ever while others are saying it's the worst. I'm not worried about the bulkiness or noise. My main concern is a strong suction effect to lift deep-down dirt and pet hair.

Signature has a more powerful vacuum motor. I think it also has upgraded firmware that allows it map and clean a room more efficiently.

I read somewhere that Electrolux sold this line to Eureka. I do know my daughter cleans homes and she has one t says Electrolux. She told me about it in the fall of 2013. When I ordered it was called Eureka Mighty Mite. I hesitated about buying it because my first sweeper, 50 yrs. ago, was a Eureka and the suction on it was terrible. My daughter and I compared there and they are exactly the same except the name change. It has great suction. Love it for bare floors.

Well, someone is ranting, but the hundreds of happy Dyson reviewers can't be ignored. I've had the dc17 for over a year. 1) I use the low reach floor tool under furniture. 2) What hardwood attachment? When vacuuming on bare floor, turn the brush bar off. Tada. 3) The hose design is much easier to use, no extension rods to connect. 4) It's 20 lbs, average for the class. There is much heavier. 5) Anything will break if continually abused. I haven't had to use the 5 yr warranty yet. 6) I would seriously take your vacuum off your hands except you seem to have trouble with things breaking on you. Maybe you should stick with the cheap stuff. Hoover's got the Tempo for under $100. Well, someone is ranting, but the hundreds of happy Dyson reviewers can't be ignored.
