Bissell DigiPro Bagged 6900 Review
An inexpensive canister vacuum on the market for a while whose filtration system and ability to clean hard-surfaced floors disappoints users; it is heavily marketed and often found on display in national chain stores, such as Best Buy, Walmart, and Target
The Bissell DigiPro Bagged 6900 gets a lot of complaints in Bissell DigiPro reviews at Amazon, where users say the HEPA filter is ineffective, the vacuum gets clogged, the beater brush has a short life span, and the hose disconnects from the canister easily. In Bissell DigiPro reviews on Epinions, users have similar gripes. One echos the complaint that the hose comes off easily and another agrees the HEPA filter doesn't work properly. One user says in a Bissell DigiPro review that replacement parts are hard to come by and the manufacturer isn't all that helpful when the machine breaks -- even when the warranty is still good.
The Bissell DigiPro 6900 uses bags and weighs 21 pounds, quite a bit more than the other canister vacuums we researched. In Bissell DigiPro reviews at Walmart, users wish the bags were bigger and easier to find. There is no mention of power cord and hose length, but the Bissell DigiPro 6900 does come with a dusting brush, upholstery tool, and crevice tool, plus a one-year warranty.
Bissell DigiPro reviews from users make us very skeptical about this vacuum. The complaints range from leaking exhaust to easily broken parts. Given users' experiences with this canister vacuum, we would advise you to try a different model.
