Having indoor pets means having a powerful vacuum cleaner. You just can't get by with weak suction when you're removing enough fur to knit a small jumper every week.
Bissell's latest stick vacuums promise to tackle pet hair thanks to its DualBrush technology, which helps loosen hair from carpets and floors with one brush before the second hugs the floor, ensuring nothing gets missed.
The PowerClean DualBrush is BISSELL's most advanced stick vacuum yet, sitting at the top of the PowerClean range.
Rather than relying on a single roller, one brush loosens and lifts embedded dirt while the second hugs the floor to capture whatever's left behind. It's a smart approach to debris that gets ground into carpet fibres or stuck along skirting boards.
The AutoAdapt technology adjusts suction automatically depending on what surface you're cleaning and boosts power when it detects more debris. BISSELL claims up to 75% more suction compared to previous models with the 280 W motor, which is a meaningful bump for anyone dealing with pet hair across multiple floor types.
The vacuum comes with a FurFinder Upholstery Tool for couch-dwelling pets. It's designed to remove up to 95% of embedded pet hair and does it twice as fast as the previous tool.
The built-in FurFinder Headlights (warm and cool LEDs) reveal hidden fur and fine debris that would otherwise go unnoticed, claiming to surface up to six times more mess than cleaning without them.
On the practical side, the DualBrush converts from stick to handheld or high-reach mode for stairs, shelves, and upholstery. A HEPA Sealed Allergen System captures 99.97% of dust and dander, which matters if anyone in the household has allergies. Two removable batteries deliver up to 100 minutes of runtime before you need to recharge.
