Tools and Hardware Reviews of BISSELL 2680 Perfect Sweep Dual Brush SweeperCustomer Review: DEFECTIVE HANDLE DESIGN RUINS PRODUCT Summary: 1 Stars
The handle for the Bissel Sweeper is made of 3 parts that you push together and come apart everytime you pick the sweeper up. Even a cheap $13 sweeper at Target has a screw-together handle. But neither Bissel, nor Amazon, apparently tried this product out before they made it and sold it. It's practically a crime to advertise you can save space by hanging this sweeper up -- since each time you pick it up the large metal head separates from the handle and crashes right on the floor (leaving dents in wood) or on your foot (and making you curse at it). Should be a ZERO star product.
Customer Review: Disappointed Summary: 3 Stars
I had one of these sweepers 20 years ago and loved it, so I got this one recently. It works great, but every time I lift it up, the handle slips out and the sweeper goes crashing to the floor. Extremely irritating. I'm trying to get my husband to drill a hole through the handle and bolt it together. Of course, then I won't be able to take it apart. Also, there is no easy cleaning of the brushes. Hair gets wrapped around the brushes and the ends of the brushes and is very difficult to get out. It would be nice if you could remove the brushes for easier cleaning.
Customer Review: Perfect vacuum substitute for me Summary: 5 Stars
I live in a single bedroom apartment with linoleum floors and floors with short carpeting and this is absolutely perfect. It's quiet, doesn't take up a lot of space, energy efficient, and works really well! Being able to go forward and backward is great, especially when you need to go over a spot more than once.
Also, I've not had any problems with the handle and it doesn't feel as if it's going to fall apart either. Like others have said, follow the instructions (banging against a hard surface floor when putting it together) and there will be no issues.
Customer Review: Handy Little gadget Summary: 5 Stars
I really love this sweeper. have used on bare floors and it works great. I may never use a broom and dustpan again. Picked up cat hair and dry food very well. Dust was no problem either. Used on low pile carpet worked very well, but only to spruce up between vacuuming. It is great for quick clean up. Have had no problem so far with handle. Followed directions and was good to go. Well so far so good, for $30 bucks I feel I got a great deal.
4/15/08 Still works great. Very good product, I use it a few times each week. Bare floors and carpet works well.
Customer Review: Sweeper does an excellent job when handle stays on! Summary: 4 Stars
I recently purchased this sweeper to use when my husband is at work, since he works from home. I am really surprised at how much dirt it gets up! Everytime I use it, it amazes me how much pet hair, human hair, and other miscellaneous stuff it picks up. However, I, like other reviewers, am very disappointed at the poor design of the handle. It comes apart constantly. I am considering the teflon tape option that was recommended by another reviewer, because the handle falling apart gets annoying. Otherwise, this is a great product with which I am very happy!
