Crosswave Pet Pro All in One Wet Dry Vacuum Cleaner and Mop for Hard Floors and Area Rugs, Purple, 2306A

Just used my new Bissell Crosswave machine for the first time and while cleaning my floors I kept thinking I should write a review. Then I went to empty the catch container and it was definite, I must write a review! First, this is my third machine in 13 years. I have a 3000 sq ft home with white marble tile in every room except the bedrooms where I have wood flooring. I live in SC a mile from the ocean and my husband runs on the beach every day and golf 4-5 times a week and refuses to go barefoot or wear slippers or some form of indoor only shoes. Needless to say I have sand, sand and more sand. Add to that the fact there is always something falling from the trees, and despite having an exterminator there are endless little critters of all sorts along baseboards. Until 2 years ago I had a sheltie with long hair so my Bissell machines have always had their work cut out for them and I couldn't live without one! The reason for this review? Well, with each new machine I've had, I've always found something new that made me like the newer machine best and this machine was no different. Between my long hair, and years of having a dog, I use to have to reach into the catch container with a paper towel and drag out all the hair and such. Bissell has added a screen with a handle that you lift out and all the solid stuff comes right up leaving only dirty water to be flushed down the toilet. No more digging into gunk! Just tap the screen onto a paper towel and clean up is easier than ever! I've read reviews stating this machine leaves puddles of water on the floor. My response to that is, either the machine was defective out of the box or the person doesn't know how to use it. You don't keep your finger on the trigger to release cleaning fluid constantly, but squeeze the trigger to keep the roller mop wet or for ground in dirt or spills. Add cleaning solution, then allow the machine to suck it up. Floors will be nearly dry immediately and surely dry within minutes which is also helpful with a husband that always seems to walk through the area I've just cleaned to get to another location within the house. And finally, having white marble tile floors I can tell you I see EVERYTHING!!!! While this machine cannot "mop" right up to the edge, it certainly sucks right up to the edge! Again, lots of little no seeums fly into the house, or baby spiders or "palmetto" bugs. This machine misses nothing! Its inability to "wet mop" right up to the edge is a result of the roller mop being set within the machine, so yes, periodically you need to go along with a damp cloth to wipe along the edge baseboards or cabinets, but certainly not every time you clean. Unless they found a way to have the roller mop exposed on the sides or front, which would make suctioning the water impossible, there's no way you can mop right along the baseboards. So for anyone who complains about that, well there's an opportunity for them to become the next millionaire once they come up with a design to do the impossible. So that's it! Had to right this review because these machines have kept my floors clean enough for my grandchildren to crawl around on for years and I can't imagine living without my Bissell Crosswaves!

I absolutely love the Bissell CrossWave Turbo. It’s perfect for my apartment and works great in smaller areas. It cleans really well and is easy to use. I also bought one for my mom for Christmas, and while she likes it, it’s just not as ideal for larger spaces since she has a lot of floor to cover. Overall, it’s an excellent cleaner and I would definitely recommend it, especially for apartments or smaller homes.

First I tried using the regular bissell crosswave after using it at a clients home. I decided the scrub machine was worth paying about $100.00 more than the hoover, which I and my clients have gotten so frustrated with the hoover since their machines seem to go bad quite quickly for many years. I was reluctant to buy the bissell with so many bad experiences with the hoover. But I liked the idea of not mopping peoples homes with dirty water or mine for that matter. The concept of the machine was a great idea, if only a company could make a machine worth buying. And I gotta say Bissell has pulled it off. Both Bissell machines work very well, but if you have pets it is highly recommended that you spend the extra money to buy the pet pro crosswave. I have put it to the test in one of clients homes who have 2 long haired cats and a long haired big dog. It does handle the hair much better around the rolling scrub brush. Though I do recommend as well to vacuum with another vacuum first before washing the floors with the scrub machines. The pet pro roller is made much better than the regular machine. Pets do have oil in their skin and their drool sticks to the floor almost like glue so a better rolling brush is needed. I did notice that my regular bissell does pivot around while cleaning is a bit better, but not a significant enough to make a big difference. Though it would be nice if they adjusted that pet pro to do it as well as the regular one, if we are going to pay almost $40.00 more for it. Also pet pro has another part in the dirty water container to catch the hair and larger pieces of stuff that comes through while cleaning that you can just pull out before dumping into your wash sink. If you find it to be more of a hassle you can just leave it out it doesn't effect the performance of the machine. The one thing both machines don't have that I think they should is an extra roller with more bristles in it then what they have because I think it would clean tile floors that are a bit rougher with more indentions much better as to why I only gave pet pro 4 stars. But I still believe it's by far better than mopping. Sweeping and vacuuming doesn't get the tiny grains of sand and if we miss it while vacuuming the scrub machines get the rest of it. If your floors are very dirty I would suggest mopping them very well first then use your bissell and if you like really clean floors and want them Shine beautifully go behind with the Sharp Genis floor steamer. The steamer will also take care of the steaks if you get them while scrubbing or you could just go behind with a flat mop or regular dry mop before the area completely drys. Pet pro machine really needs to have the bissell cleaning solution suggested for pets it works much better. I have owned the regular bissell for a year and it still works as good as it did the first time I used it, so I feel the machines could last for many years just as long as we properly take care of them. Also another thing I liked about the pet pro over the regular bissell is that it is much easier to remove the cover that protects the roller so we can clean the machine after each use. I actually broke one of the plastic pieces on the regular bissell because it was so hard to pull off. Not only will you notice how much cleaner your floors are, but you will feel it on your feet. There is nothing like have super clean floors!!!! I don't have pets of my own and if I didn't have homes I cleaned without pets I would spend the extra and buy the Pet Pro crosswave!!!! Love the beautiful Purple color too!!! Thanks Bissell for designing a wonderful floor machines!!

Works great, my floors are squeaky clean. I use it on LVP floors with water and a few drops of dish detergent. It does not leak, just make sure the cap on the clean water tank is attached correctly. It’s lighter than a regular vacuum and easy to maneuver. It works well on lighter dust particles, and the suction is strong enough to pick up ordinary dirt while leaving the floors only slightly damp. I don’t think it’s strong enough to deep-clean carpet, but I’m comparing it to my Dyson Animal 2. The “zero-gap” feature is great, though I added a thin felt strip to avoid accidentally scratching baseboards or furniture. As for odor, it has the typical factory smell when first taken out of the box, but nothing unusual or long-lasting. I got it on sale, but it’s worth every penny especially considering the time it saves compared to using a regular mop.

Los productos bissell son muy recomendables. Lamentablemente la caja venia rota y el jabón qué viene de muestra estaba vacío.

Tengo 7 perros. Este aparato me facilitó la limpieza diaria a profundidad en mis pisos de mármol y laminados sin maltratarlos. Es aspiradora con trapeador integrado ñ. Sirve también para limpiar tapetes y alfrombras chucos- medianos. No substituye una aspiradora doméstica estándar. Esa es para trabajo pesado y para aspirar muebles, cortinas, etc por sus aditamentos y potencia. Tampoco substituye al trapeador. Esos los dejo para areas como Baños y escaleras y áreas pequeñas donde no cabe la cabeza. Además de que los trapeadores son para recoger líquidos derramados o cualquier accidente de secreciones donde no voy a usar la máquina por obvia razón y cuestión de técnica de aseo de utilizar trapeadores o jergas distintas par cada tipo de superficie y de suciedad. Otra ventaja es que es muy liviana aún con los tanques de agua limpia y agua sucia medió llenos. Asi que subirla y bajarla es fácil. También fue muy útil el líquido de pisos que incluye. No hizo espuma y quitó el olor de perro y cualquier otro de la casa. No tiene fragancia específica. Solo queda oliendo a limpio de una forma muy discreta. Huele neutro es la descripción correcta. El segundo uso fue solo con agua y tanque lleno para ver la diferencia entre con y sin solución de pisos. La diferencia fue que sin solución no los desengrasa/desodoriza y las manchas tardan un poco más en quitarse además de que no limpia/desengrasa/desodoriza el tanque de agua sucia, el rodillo y la cabeza. Para la planta baja que son aproximadamente 120 mts cuadrados uso 3/4 de tanque y lave rodillo y cabeza tres veces. El tanque de agua sucia aunque no estaba lleno a tope lo vacié y limpié en cada ocasión. Con agua los pisos quedan igual de brilllosos como si estuvieran encerados pero rechinan de limpio. No es exageración. Lo mejor fue mínimo gasto de agua y casi diría que cero esfuerzo por que empujar la máquina y limpiarla no te cansa para nada. Ya aprendi que solo disparas solución para humedecer el rodillo. No es un spayer. Al apretar el gatillo se humedece el rodillo. De manera que el secreto está en saber humedecer lo lo suficiente para que talle el piso por lo que el disparo de solución es intermitente. Por eso dura tanto el tanque. Es muy eficiente y rendidor si lo sabes utilizar. ¿Y substituye a una escoba? No. La escoba y su compañero el recogedor son el comité de revision antes de usar esta máquina. Quitan todos los detritus grandes que no son aptos para que esta. máquina los aspire. En conclusión: esta máquina es súper eficiente para limpieza diaria rápida y efectiva de pisos duros. La desventaja es que no se le puede usar con liquidos lava pisos que hagan espuma o sean corrosivos (cloro). Queda pendiente valorar la durabilidad general y especialmente de los rodillos.

Excelente producto, fácil de limpiar solo es vaciar el contenedor ya que realiza auto limpieza de rodillo, sirve para piso de cerámica y alfombra, tiene cable largo, es útil para quien tiene mucho pelo de mascotas, es fácil de usar, tiene llantas para su movilización pero si deseas cargarla si es un poco pesada si eres adulto mayor. En general es muy buena, fácil de usar , potente, regulas la humedad con un gatillo hacia adelante y el jalador al eeslizarlo hacia atrás recoge el agua , el tanque es de 2 litros y me alcanza para la cocina , sala y comedor si esta muy sucio. Cuando esta mas limpio alcanza para dos habitaciones más.

Tengo un par de meses con ella, me parece muy práctica sin embargo no creo que valga la pena el precio, es muy pesada y los componentes sin difíciles de limpiar. Definitivamente ahorra tiempo, lo cual es bueno, pero no funciona para limpiezas tan profundas, yo aun trapeo posterior a usarla.

limpia excelente, recoge todo, es fácil de limpiar, se usa en todo tipo de superficies, consume minimo de agua, un tanque es suficiente para limpiar un área de 120mt2 . El único detalle es que los liquidos limpiadores son caros, yo los pago con gusto porque me ahorra mucho tiempo y esfuerzo. Tiene cable de luz y eso es más facil porque no tienes el problema de que se descargue la bateria. Definitivamente es mi mejor gadget de limpieza.
