Wow, what an improvement
I've had a Hoover model from yesteryear which is still running strong, but it's seen better days. When this model went on sale, I thought I'd give it a try. I don't need a ton of bells and whistles. I just need a solid machine to clean my floors. It wasn't until this arrived and I cleaned a couple of rooms that I realized what a HUGE improvement in technology this was. From picking up excess water to the effective use of the water it does dispense. When I emptied out the dirty water tank, it was saturated with the dirt it picked up off the floor and I vacuum daily! I had just cleaned the floors the prior day with my old unit. Wow. One of the things I most appreciated is the self cleaning mode of the brush. Huge win! You can replace them like mop heads as well. Perfect! There is literally nothing I don't like about the Crosswave.I do want to mention a couple things regarding some complaints I've read about this unit. Yes, you have to clean it after every use. How is that unreasonable? That's just plain lazy if it's upsetting to anyone. You empty the dirty tank. You rinse off all the hair, grime and dirt left clinging to parts and if the filter is doing its job, it's going to get dirty and you'll want to replace it eventually. This machine has a self-cleaning button that literally cleans the brush head for you after your cleaning session is complete. How amazing and convenient! You can't just walk away from it like a robotic, self emptying robot. I've tried those and they are not even close to being effective. The technology has a very long way to go to meet the cleaning quality of this Bissell. It's also not meant for carpets, so please don't have unrealistic expectations. Don't expect it to perform like a carpet cleaner or a dedicated vacuum cleaner. It's meant to do one thing and it does it really well. It cleans hard floors squeaky clean.I have a robotic vacuum that runs on a daily schedule. It gets rid of the majority of dog hair, dust and dirt that gets trailed in from going in and out of the house. By adding this once a week to the routine, my floors are clean enough to eat off of. If you're not keeping your floors fairly clean throughout the week, don't expect this unit to become an industrial cleaner. That's not what it's meant for. I especially love how easy it is to maneuver as well as how little water it uses for being as effective as it is. I've just recently edited this review since my purchase several weeks ago and I'm still sticking to the 5 stars. It's my new favorite appliance in the house.

Great product
The vacuum has a really good quality, good price. Very easy to use and removes the dirt really well. Not too noisy, good suction and durable.

Easy to use and works so well.
I have mostly hard floors throughout my house, tile and hardwoods. This device works great for cleaning and is so easy to use and easy to push. In retrospect, I probably should have bought one that plugs in as the battery will go dead before I finish but that is not a huge deal (4000 sq feet to clean). I actually take to base with me and plug it in to charge while I clean other things. The Bissell itself is very easy to use, the instructions are very clear and the tanks are easy to fill and empty. Also love the self cleaning feature when you are finished and the fact that you can take the roller brush out to dry. (I hate the sour smell that comes when things don't dry well.) Overall, It is wonderful and I love it! would definitely buy again

Where has this been all my life?
This review is for the cheapest corded model. I snagged it on Prime day and have zero regrets. Although I've only had it a week, I feel that it's enough use to review it. The only question left is the longevity, and I'll update that at a later time.This vac mop has been around for years, and has thousands of reviews, so there's really no point in reviewing it, but there are things I'd like to highlight.I bought this because I mistakenly thought I could use it as a vacuum and mop. Not vacuum bare floors while mopping, but actually dry vacuum carpet. Not so lol. It's meant to suck up water while mopping. That said, I'm here to inform everyone that you can indeed use this as a daily vacuum and a daily mop with a little adaptation.Bissell says to dismantle and clean it after every use. This is true. Failure to do so will result in the unit getting smelly. But if doing it this way, you can't whip it out whenever you need to clean up a mess. Even using it once daily will result in downtime of a couple days if the filter is cleaned.How to get around this annoyance? You need to buy extra brushes and filters. Bissell doesn't mention this. Buy lots and lots of filters. That way when one gets damp or needs cleaning, you can quickly swap it for a dry one. This is necessary because water can easily get past the filter and into the motor, especially if there's any cleaner in the water tank.Which brings me to my next point. Do not put anything except water and/or Bissell brand cleaner in the tank. If you must use another cleaner, dilute it to a weak strength and spray it directly on the floor. Suds will bubble up into the motor if you're not careful.As for how it functions, it's amazing. It pulls up more dirt than my O'Cedar spin mop. It's less tedious than the spin mop too. Dry vacuuming will pick up dust and pet hair off the surface of an area rug or low pile carpet. It will also refresh it when using the mop function. It doesn't replace a traditional mop or vacuum, but it's perfect for what it's advertised to do - daily vacuuming and mopping. It's great for maintenance between deep cleaning.As for maintaining it, pour water in the tray with a little squirt of diluted Lysol or similar. The brush will come out mostly clean and dry. Remove the filter from the waste cup cover and rinse the cup and lid. If the filters and brushes are dirty or smelly, toss them in a washer with some rags or old clothes (to cushion them during the spin cycle) then air dry. They don't need to be scrubbed or soaked in anything. That's doing too much lol.Like I said, I'll update this later to include longevity, but so far this method works for me. It still smells brand new, and I'd like it to stay that way for a long time. I highly recommend this to anyone who's sick of spin mops and Swiffer.
