Bissell Flip It

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2006
Review: This machine is an overall disappointment, although a great ideal for those of us who have arthritis and have trouble getting on our knees to scrub the floor. The dry vacuum just isn't effective. Tiny pieces of material and dust are not even sucked...

LOVE IT!

Date of Review:  Sep 16, 2006
The Bottom Line: For a person with all hard floors, this is wonderful.
Review: All of the floors in my house are tile, so I figured I buy this and give it a shot.

To start out with, this was VERY easy to put together. Took 5 minutes, probably less. The only 'tricky' part was the the hole for the handle screw was...

piece of crap

Date of Review:  Apr 17, 2005
Review: this machine is worthless. it is terribly difficult to push in the wet mode and the dry mode doesn't even pick up debris as well as a standard vacuum cleaner.

additionally, there are many small parts that get covered and or clogged with...

Ugh!

Date of Review:  Jun 13, 2005
Review: This machine seems like a good idea. Too bad it's so difficult to use. It does an okay job, but the pad separates if moved laterally. Fortunately, Home Depot took it back.

I really want to love this machine....but I don't.

Date of Review:  Apr 15, 2009
The Bottom Line: It's not horrible but I think there has to be something better out there - my recommendation is to avoid this one and keep looking.
Review: I've had the Bissell Flip-It for several years. There is just two of us and 3 cats - so lots of cat hair. I keep using it and hoping I'm just doing something wrong but I just can't seem to get it to work effectively.

First of all, as other...

Finally... My Hardwood Floors Are Spotless! I HIGHLY Recommend This Product To Anyone!

Date of Review:  Jul 15, 2005
The Bottom Line: Bottom line is, the Bissell Flip-It really works! It's worth 10 times the retail price.
Review: To start, I see a lot of people aren't happy with the fact that after mopping with it, it does leave a bit of water underneath. And I understand that. But... the PAYOFF of beautiful, amazingly clean floors is worth it. So put a piece of paper towel...

In two words "It Sucks!"

Date of Review:  Mar 4, 2008
The Bottom Line: Just stick with the mop and bucket.
Review: I just got it home and was really excited about the possibilities this product could bring. I have an 11 month old little girl and she is constantly on the move. It's more important now than ever that my floors are spotless, and I was hoping that...

Please Do NOT Buy!

Date of Review:  Feb 21, 2006
Review: This thing is useless. The vacuum doesnt work too well. The brushes slip out of place while scrubbing. If you flip from wet back to dry, the tank drips solution all over. The wet suction is almost non-existent so it pushes dirty water around. Just...

Good wet, not so good dry

Date of Review:  Mar 27, 2006
The Bottom Line: It's a great mop for any conditions, and a so-so vacuum. If you have pets or a lot of dust, you'll be using another dry vac method.
Review: I rent a 1200 sq foot house with linoleum tile through the whole thing. I also have a big dog and live in a dry dusty climate. I bought the Flip-It to facilitate mopping both upstairs and downstairs. I'm not impressed with the dry vacuum feature. If...
