Susan and Janice here… We’re thrilled to announce we’re embarking on a new campaign to spread the word about the new BISSELL PowerGlide Lift-Off vacuum. Yes, it’s a sponsored project but as always, you can trust our opinions are our own.
We’re looking forward to having some fun with this campaign because it’s all about celebrating real women with real messes. We’re certainly real women with real messes… and we suspect many of you can relate.
Over the next few months, we’ll be getting deeper into cleaning and to start we tested out a new BISSELL PowerGlide Lift-Off vacuum. Well, we actually fought over it first… watch the video below to see which twin won the fight!
Okay, did you watch the video? Did you see which twin won the vacuum?
Well, we both love how the BISSELL PowerGlide Vacuum with Lift-Off can help you quickly clean your entire house moving between carpet, hardwood and tile.
Our favorite part of the vacuum is the lift off pod which lets you easily clean stairs without hurting your back. It’s super easy – 1 click and a lift – to remove the pod. (And it’s just as easy to put it back and continue vacuuming the rest of the house.)

7 Reasons You’ll Love the PowerGlide Lift-Off
Here are seven reasons why you’ll love this vacuum as much as we do…
- Awesome Suction Power. You don’t want to spend your time vacuuming if half the dirt is being left behind.
- Lightweight. As we get older, our backs get weaker. We don’t want to lug a heavy vacuum up and down the stairs and try to balance it on the steps as we try to get the crumbs in the crevices.
- One vacuum, many floor types. We’ve got carpet, hardwood and tile. We want to whip around our houses with one vacuum cleaning all our floors.
- Maneuverable. Crumbs get everywhere. Vacuums must follow.
- Bagless beauty. We don’t want to buy and change vacuum bags… We like retro style, but not in our vacuums.
- Simple to use. We’re not into studying instruction manuals.
- Affordable. Yeah, we have better things to spend money on… household appliances aren’t a feature item in our budgets. This vacuum isn’t going to mess with our vacation savings.
Yes, we love the BISSELL PowerGlide Vacuum with Lift-Off Technology and we think you’ll find it is the only vacuum you need to clean your entire house.

Man, I really could use a new vacuum like this one!
good suction, quick and easy, is what I need because I can’t push a heavy vacuum.
this vaccum sounds way better then mine i have thanks for this review greatly appreciated thanks
We need a new vacuum with good suction. This vacuum may be our next purchase.
love the review makes me want one
I like that it can clean stairs. That is the most frustrating part of vacuuming for me. This sounds and looks like a great vacuum.
I would love to have this ! I need something that is light weight and I can carry and move easily!
I love that it is light weight. I love the one that I have now but would like to find something that is less of a hassle to use.
I love the lightweight, easy to move around and the suction power. This looks like a handy vacuum for many kinds of messiness.
I actually have this vacuum and we are OBSESSED with it! highly recommended!
great review i was just looking at this vacumm the other day i am in need of a new one and this just may be the one thanks
I love the way the BISSELL PowerGlide Vacuum smoothly goes around furniture
and also the way it disconnects to clean the stairs is a plus.All in all this vacuum
sounds fabulous.
I’m super jealous of this vacuum. A friend of mine just got one and it IS amazing. They have a huge Husky and she was showing me how easy this picked up all the pet hair. We have an older Bissell that is in okay shape, but I’m definitely going to start trying to con my fiance into getting me one of these for Christmas!
The name alone makes me happy. Glide. Hmmmm.
I like that it is bagless. I remember the days of having to track down bags just so I can vacuum. Ridiculous!
Nice and compact and perfect for the closet

I like your review of this floor cleaner.
What a great and insightful review.
I like that it cleans all floor types. It would make cleaning our house easier.
I like that it is light and portable, and I know Bissell makes a good vaccuum!
I love that its lightweight and affordable!! I will put this on my Christmas wish list!!!
I love that you can use this on multiple types of flooring. I have had mine for too long and have been looking for a new one, and this looks perfect!!
I’m actually in the market for a new vacuum, we love our current Bissell and will continue to use it upstairs, but it’s the low-end model and just can’t keep up with the kids (it keeps getting clogged with little bits of paper from all their art projects). Thanks for sharing this information, especially since I’m pretty brand loyal and wanted to stick with them!
I think what you’re doing to empower Moms and women is great, and that vacuum looks pretty nice! Might just have to try it out myself
I would love to try this one. We are always looking for a vacuum that can do everything and this one looks great.
The worst part of vacuuming for me has always been the stairs. How exhausting! This Lift Off Technology sounds like it would make my life so much easier.
I’d love to try one of these. I’m in desperate need of a new vacuum. lol
This looks wonderful! I am in need of a new vacuum also! I will have to check this one out! Thank you!
I’ve been in the market for a new vacuum lately and I like what I’ve read about the Bissell PowerGlide. I really like the lift off pod idea for cleaning stairs and being bagless is great!
i love that you dont have to worry with vaccum bags
Has all the features I look for in a vac. Especially being lightweight.
OMG I need a vacuum so very bad!! I love the looks of this one and may look into it. Thank you.
I desperately need a new vacuum and this one sounds like it would fit the bill. I love the fact that it’s bagless. There’s nothing worse than running out of bags when you’re vacuuming or the store quits stocking your style of bag. Ugh!
I really like that this vacuum is bagless. I do not like changing vacuum bags.
I love how lightweight and efficient it is!
I would love a vacuum that makes cleaning the stairs easier. I will put this on my wish list.
this would be a nice gift for me
I love how light weight this vacuum is. It would be perfect for my mother.
Commenting for giveaway!
I am a SpotBot user from way back.
Love me some Bissell.
We need a new vaccuum…will have to add this to my list to consider.
I am in need of a vacuum actually. Love this! Thank you for the review.
For the tablet
Very impressive! I really like the lift off feature, as vacuuming the stairs is one of my least favorite tasks.
Bissell is a name I trust.
I love the lift-off feature. If I were to design a vacuum, it would definitely be designed in that way. It would be great to be able to clean other things while doing my regular vacuuming. thank you.
I like that it has the different types of floors feature. I get “dust bunnies” in the kitchen due to the dogs, so I’d love to just go from the carpet to the vinyl flooring. Thanks for the review!
I hate vacuuming the stairs. I usually just end up sweeping it because I find it easier
Ohhh, This would be great at doing the stairs! Mine is so heavy its hard to do!
The stairs are usually the hardest part for me and require 2 people to do, I usually have to make my 12 year old hold the main part of the vacuum on each stairs while I use the hose to clean the stairs. This vacuum you review looks like it would take a lot of that hassle away!
Loving all the different floor types! We recently moved and this has been a challenge…finding ONE thing that will clean EVERYTHING. We need to try this!!
Glad to see this review as we are in the market for a new vac. This one might end up in our closet soon!
Wow, I need that vacuum, using a shop vac, yep only thing that I can afford at this time, thank goodness I don’t have carpets but still a pain vacuuming hard wood floors with a shop vac.
I would love to win one of these
I like multi-surface vacs to cut down on the chores.
Oh very nice! Looks like it’d be a great vaccum to help with pet hair!
Looks like a good machine.
We could really use a new vacuum..They don’t seem to last long in our house. It never fails hair or an unsuspecting toy gets caught in it..This Vacuum looks great, I will have to look into this 🙂

I love how lightweight it is!! Mine is so heavy and hard to move.
Looks like a great vacuum. Ours just died and with 2 furry shelties in the house I need a good vacuum.
We have a house full of hardwood floors and area rugs and this would work great for us.
I also love how easy and quick it makes cleaning the stairs.

Love the bissell! Live in a tri-level and would love a lightweight vacuum to carry up all the stairs!
This sounds wonderful. I would totally get this if I hadn’t just repaired my old vacuum.
Looks great – want.
sounds super amazing something that I would find very useful in this busy house
This is such a nice Bissell. I would love to get a new light weight vacuum. I love the lift off feature.
I love how it seems to be very light. I also love the cute Mickey shirt and red tutu skirt
I’m not sure exactly how effective it is. I firmly follow the ideology of believing it when I see it. The review appears legitimate, but I’d still would want to test it out for myself.
Just came across your site. Love it!!
Thanks for all the momspiration!
That review is GREAT!! You gals really put a lot of work into that! Makes me want one!
That would be so handy for cleaning little messes around the house without having to lug the whole thing around.
I am in desperate need of a new vacuum, this would be great for me
One thing I can’t deal with is bags so I like this and I trust the Bissell name since I do have a Bissell carpet cleaner and it works great even after 6 years and 3 dogs, 5 kids and a messy husband.
I love that graphic! So cute and creative. Thanks for sharing about this vacuum.
I am shopping for anew vacuum for low pile carpet and wood floors and i appreciate your honesta znd straight-forward review
good review,,im in need of a new vaccum for upstairs an one for downstairs,,Ive been checking out reviews to find the right one,,thanks this has been inlightening
Lightweight and maneuverable are music to my ears! It certainly makes dragging out the vacuum for a quick touch up a lot easier (and likely to happen!)
Love that it is relatively small. Makes it easier to tuck in the closet. And it looks like it did a great job!
I love that this is so lightweight. For me that’s one of the most important features of a vacuum
that would be great for us as we have carpet,tile and hardwood..not to mention lots of pets and the hair can get ridiculous
This would be easier than my current method of vacuuming everything!
This looks like an awesome vacuum. It has everything you need and it’s affordable.
I have a Bissel now! has done me good. Need the one mentioned in your post.. it would be a good upgrade!
I love that this is bagless! I don’t like changing the bag in mine!
Oh my, do we need this vacuum. Thanks for the info!
Great review, I am actually looking for a new vacuum cleaner so this was very helpful! Thank you.
lol…Janice won the Bissell Power glide vaccum. Can’t blame her a bad back and a dog :). I too have a dog and this would be great .
I like how this vacuum can be used on a variety of floor types.
have always wanted to try bissell. Great reviews from everyone it seems like. Never have heard anything bad!
Loved the review…would love to have this items after being reviewed
I need one of these. I would love the lift off pod. I have two cats and it seems like I am always vacuuming the stairs. This is so cool.
I love the handle on the hose. Seems much more ergonomic or at least easier to hold than just holding the hose itself.
I hate dragging the heavy vaccuum up the stairs – this makes it look like it would be easier.
This sounds great. Going from carpet to other floor types would be cool to have.
Looks like a great product, I could really use anew vacuum.
It would be great not having to change bags…my vacuum is old (it was my mother’s) and it is also extremely heavy.
My vacuum is on it’s last leg. This the Bissell sound like just what I need to clean this place. I love that it lifts off so you can get to places that you can’t if it didn’t.
This would be awesome for my place because I have tons of tile but, carpet in the bedrooms!
I like how it is bagless I detest changing bags! It looks very versitile and something that will be used!
Thanks for the review. I do need a new vaccumm soon. so this was helpful for me 🙂
No need to change bags! That is awesome! Love that feature!
This is the vacuum cleaner I need! I love that it has all these great features, especially the ability to clean multiple floor types and it won’t cost a fortune like other vacuums!
i love that it’s supposed to be easy to clean stairs. that’s one thing that always was an issue with old vacuums
I love Bissell, they have amazing affordable products! Thanks for the review.
I would love this for my stairs looks light weight and easy to move
Love your review and I am anxious to try this, love the lift off part! I also love that it is simple to use.
That looks very useful – especially for our furniture where our black cats leave fur.
This would be great in my house. I wonder if it would work well on upholstery as well.
I am wondering if this one is durable enough to withstand a busy household.
I like the light weight feature. That would be great for carrying it up and down stairs.
I WANT ONE! These vacuums are awesome.
My sweeper is 25 years old and I would love to have an updated one that is more maneuverable
I like that it’s light weight and bagless. Glad you two had fun with it.
I would love to own a BISSELL PowerGlide Vacuum. Bissell is has great vacuums.
This would be an amazing sweeper to have!
Omg im jelly!!! I wish i had this vaccum i like the fact that it works and different floor types with no issues!!
I would love to have this Bissell!
I love that it’s lightweight, i’m so sick of dragging my heavy vacuum around!
I love this lightweight feature, this would be great for my stairs.
I’ve been drooling over new vacuums for months now. I’ve had the same one for 12 years and it’s on it last leg.
This Bissell looks sturdy & powerful!
I do not miss having carpeted stairs. With a bad back as well I was always in pain after doing the stairs. Sounds like an amazing vacuum.
I like that this is lightweight and bagless, it looks like it’d tackle stairs well
I would love a new vacuum like this!
I like that this vacuum is lightweight and bagless. This is the second great review I have seen for this product.
I like that this is for ALL floor types. I have tile, hardwood and carpet! This would be such a timesaver.
im in need of a new one,,an will be checking out a lot of different ones thanks for the updates on this one
I can see the liftoff being useful in vacuuming out the car!
This vac looks great – I have a good vacuum, but it’s SO heavy; I hate lugging it up the stairs!
I hate doing the stairs! I usually just sweep them so the lift off would be great. I like how powerful and lightweight it is too.
This would definitely be great for me, I love the fact that it’s bagless and the portability is awesome. Thanks.
This sounds like a superb vacuum cleaner. I’ve always trusted the Bissell brand.
I’ve always used Oreck vacuums, but I’ve heard good things about Bissell’s too.
This is amazing for children and pets. Have been looking for one that’s lightweight , easy to use and can get under tight surfaces. Its a plus that you can use on different floor surfaces.
I love this lightweight feature, our old vacuum is so heavy! Add this into my list for future purchase.
I like it that you don’t have to change vacuum bags. That’s the one thing I don’t like about vacuuming.
Perfect, thanks so much for this review!
bagless is a must, and it is light…perfect vacuum.
I like that this Bissell is light-weight. Mine is so terribly heavy and it makes it hard to lug around!
I love that you can use it on many different floor types.We will be shopping for a new vac soon and this is on our list to check out!
Fun times, if that would only carry over to the whole chore aspect, I would have 10.. I am not a super clean freak, well I take that back..I love a clean house, I just hate doing it.
This really motivates me to get and teach the 13 yo to become a superfan and have so much fun doing chores, LOL (she will probably not see it the same way)
We are in desperate need of a new vacuum, and I would love one that’s easy to use. Thanks for the fun review!
I so relate; I like to spend as little time cleaning as possible too. LOL Loving that lift-off feature. That is amazing and so handy.
Love the portability and the lift-off for stairs. Cleaning is a chore, but with tools like Bissell, it makes it a bit less painful.
That looks fabulous. Seriously. Vacuuming stairs is my nemesis, but that Bissell makes it look easy.
This looks and sounds like a great vacuum. I would get a lot of use out of it
This looks like the exact vacuum I need! While I don’t have stairs, I do have a rug on my hardwood floors, so I need it to go from one to the other without any issues!
Thank you for the thorough and wonderful video review!
I love the look of the new Bissell PowerGlide – it looks like it would be perfect for use in any busy home!
This looks awesome — and I need a new vacuum. We mostly have hardwood floors and tile but we do have two flights of stairs! I’ll have to look into this.
Love the idea of the lift-off part for the stairs!!! We just switched from an upright vacuum to a canister because I thought that would be easier for stairs, but it still isn’t great. Seems hard to find a vacuum that does everything perfectly but this one sounds like it might… 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
We just put new hardwood flooring in our kitchen and we’re having brand new carpet installed in our living room TOMORROW! My husband and I were just discussing last night that we really need to get a new vacuum that will be more versatile and easy to handle.
Loving your review, you have my gears turning!
