Bissell is one of those brands that is well known in the vacuum cleaner industry, particularly the residential segment. They have a wide lineup of affordable vacuums that are effective at cleaning but not necessarily on the cutting edge of technology. That just hasn’t been their niche per se but they are starting to invest more in developing new cordless models that can compete with the likes of Dyson, Tineco, and Shark. Their ICONPet is a big step forward in terms of cord-free technology as it comes with powerful batteries that can clean your entire household. But does it compare favorably to the other top cordless brands sold today?
For starters, the ICONPet as you might have guessed from the name is geared towards homes with one or more pets. Animals in your home present a variety of challenges when it comes to cleaning the floors and surfaces, especially carpets. They shed hair and dander which are known allergens, triggering a reaction in those with allergies or asthma if not thoroughly removed on a regular basis. You need a vacuum with enough power to pull embedded dust from carpet fibers as well as one with the right tools for other surfaces. Bissell designed this cleaner with those things in mind.

Dyson has long been known as one of the best vacuum companies in the home cleaning industry. Innovative, powerful, and affordable are just a few words that are used to describe their vacuums. Tineco on the other hand is not as well known at the current time but that is quickly changing. They have a growing lineup of cordless models that compare quite well to anything currently out there including those from Dyson. The Pure One S12 is packed with technology and power, making it a direct competitor to the ultra powerful V11 stick. How does it stack up in a variety of important categories?
The Miele Swing H1 QuickStep is a lightweight upright stick vacuum with stylish design and surprising performance. Similar to their other larger vacuums it is built to produce strong suction via a high flow of air without the excessive noise that other brands put out. And also like their popular canister lineup the Swing H1 works just as well on hard floors like tile, laminate, and hardwood as it does on carpeting. A variety of configurations and attachments means you will have the right setup for any surface. While you won’t want to use it exclusively for large carpeted homes it is an ideal choice for smaller apartments, kitchen spaces, offices, and even campers since it is so portable.
