Zing Lightweight, Bagged Canister Vacuum, Purple, 2154A

Since January 2024: going strong and working flawlessly. Amazing. My prior vacuum cleaners all fizzled away after 2 - 3 years. This one is remarkably easy to use and portable. It never seems to tangle on its own cord somehow, and I'm not sure how they pulled that off. The suction is strong and stays strong - it has not lost strength after nearly 3 years. You will need bags to run this vacuum and that is an ongoing cost. However, I have been able to find 3rd party bags at super cheap prices and they work fine - super clean and sanitary unlike my experience with bagless vacuums where I often make a mess or leave dust behind, Overall I'm very happy with this vacuum and hope I can get more years of service out of it. On average I use one bag ever two months on a 2-bedroom condo.

I’ve been very happy with this vacuum. It’s lightweight, easy to carry, and has strong suction for its size. It does a great job picking up dust, pet hair, and small debris on both hard floors and low-pile rugs. I also like that it’s simple to empty the dust container and doesn’t take up much storage space. The cord is long enough for cleaning several areas without constantly changing outlets. If you’re looking for an affordable vacuum for everyday cleaning, this is a great choice. It offers excellent performance and has made keeping my home clean much easier.

So let me start out by saying I bought this to NOT replace my old vacuum but to enhance my vacuuming wizardness. My old vacuum which is also a Bissell does an amazing job on my floors so just reiterating I did not buy the Zing as a replacement machine. I purchased this Bissell simply due to the fact that it has a six foot hose. I have children who are destructive monsters, and everything from the very bottom corner to the very top corners of my house gets completely destroyed every day. Obviously my full size vacuum cannot reach the heights that I needed it to, so that is where this baby comes in! The Zing is a beautiful lime green color, exactly as it shows in the picture, and it throws quite a hefty punch! Or rather, could suck up a hefty punch! I was pleasantly surprised by the very small size of this machine, its movement capability, and by the way it could suck up an entire spilled snack time. Like I am not kidding... this thing sucked up every single smashed gold fish, without blowing any crumbs anywhere like my normal vacuum would. It's also small enough to fit under my couch, tv stand, and small double decker end table. I also used the corner attachments and cleaned the entire top part of my couch where my other children sleep (aka... my two cats, who have an issue with shedding) and it ripped that stuff up like it was no issue what-so-ever. This stay at home momma is in love. Its love. For real. What we do is really insanity, doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. Well this insane mommas job just got increasingly more easy! I clean my house probably close to three times a day, and each time takes me about thirty minutes to an hour... today I got done in a whopping twenty three minutes! What am I doing with the other 5-35 minutes? I am writing you this awesome review! :) If you're looking for a powerful little machine to get high up jobs done, this is the machine for you! Now you may ask "But Kayla, if you love it so much, then why only a 4 Star review?" Well, I am glad you asked that question! Remember when I mentioned in my very first sentence that I did not buy the Zing as a replacement for my old standard vacuum? Well Thank god I didn't. The Zing in my opinion does not do a well enough job to be a stand a lone vacuum cleaner. Don't get me wrong, it is the perfect supplement vacuum. It does great getting the things way high up, in the corners, and underneath things all while being aesthetically pleasing and lightweight. But that is where the pros basically stay. While testing this machine out today I used the carpet/hardwood floor attachment (the one it shows in the picture) and it honestly does not do that great of a job picking things up. Like I guess if you're picking up dust, or dirt or small things then yeah it would do great... but if you're tackling the mess of goldfish, cheerios, and whatever else kids or adults throw on the floor it doesn't get picked up, instead the attachment sits so close to the ground that you end up just pushing the crap on the floor around instead of it being sucked up. So when using the floor attachment I basically just used it as a broom and put it into a pile and then picked the attachment up and lowered it slowly onto the piles a few times until it was gone. Now the suction on this baby is amazing, it wasn't too big of an issue but it makes me glad that I have my other vacuum to tackle those bigger jobs. That is why I give it a 4 out of 5 stars. All in all I love this machine, and I am very happy with my purchase.

I like it, but I had to make it work for me. The beater brush is supposed to be retractable, but it doesn't retract high enough for it to not reach the floor and I did not want the brush to touch my area rug. So, I had to put tape over the beater brush (see my photo), and now it glides across my area rug without damaging the fibers. When I first tried it without the tape over it, I flipped over the floor attachment and saw the fibers stuck in the brush. The other attachments like the small brush, and the concentrator nozzle work great. I use them for corners, molding, etc. For my hardwood floor is, my process is to sweep all the dirt up against various walls throughout the space and then go to each wall and use the concentrator nozzle to suck it up. The suction power is good, and the shorter distance from the floor to the main unit, the better. So, for example, for more suction, attach the floor attachment directly to the hose that is connected to the main unit, instead of with that extra hose in the middle. I like that it's so portable, very lightweight and easy to pick up and move from area to area. I also like the retractable cord. You have to make sure that it's laid out flat on the floor and in front of the hole it retracts into in order for it to work properly. But it does work whether the vacuum cleaner is plugged in or not. If you have the cord all bunched up around vacuum cleaner it won't work. And you have to hold the button down until it's finished retracting. At first, I decided to return it because I wanted to use it as my main vacuum cleaner unit for my carpet and hardwood floors and everything. But it does not work for carpet at all. The hole underneath the floor attachment (see my photo) is just too small. If it was the full length of the attachment, then it might work. But it's just too small and you can't know where the hole has already been on the carpet because you can't see under there. So you will end up missing a lot of spots. I would imagine it would be the same for hardwood floors, that you would miss a lot of spots. But you can just use my method of sweeping all of the dirt up against the wall and then using the concentrater nozzle to suck it up. I ultimately decided to keep it because I figured that it would be good to use for my sewing room when there is a lot of thread all over the carpet, to just walk around and use the concentrator nozzle to suck it up. So, I went ahead and purchased my favorite bagged vacuum cleaner for my carpet. That way, I won't destroy the beater brush in that one with a thread in my sewing room. I've since also discovered the tape method to use it on my area rug, so I'm happy with it overall. It comes with one bag, but they are cheap enough to reorder here on Amazon, and I've already used it probably five times or so and I'm still on the first bag. While assembling it, I thought I was missing one of the pieces, but it turned out that it looks different in the manual than does the actual attachment. Dorry, I can't remember which piece it was. But if you think you're missing a piece, just consider that you're not and find the piece that matches closely. Now that I'm thinking about it, it might have been the concentrator nozzle.

Love this vacuum. The power it has is better than my big vacuum, it is easy to carry, and pulling it behind me is smooth. I bought this to get under furniture and it works like a dream.

This is my 3rd one. I had a cleaning bussiness and this thing..I call it the beast works GREAT on corners and along the baseboards. I never used it as my main vacuum but it was and is the main one with hard to reach spots, dog or cat hair, baseboards etc anything you would use an attachment with. The suction in POWERFUL. I will be getting one for my daughter-in-law for Christmas because she is constantly vacuuming up dog hair on the steps and I KNOW this is the machine for it and it's light enough to carry up n down the steps. I can't say enough about it.

Like the title says: this vacuum sucks. Which: you want your vacuum to do, right? Yes, BUT: there are other features, and NONE of them are good - except maybe the retractable cord. However, given the general poor build quality of this machine, I don't trust that feature to last. I read the other reviews. Based on those reviews, I had almost decided to look for a different vacuum instead, when I saw that there was a "used-like new" (meaning: unused, but no longer in the original box) option for $35 less than the "new" price, and I thought, wow, what an incredible deal! I know the reviews aren't great, but there's no way it could be THAT bad. And if it really is that bad, I can still return it, right? I have learned my lesson. Every single complaint I saw in the bad reviews has proved true, AND I can't return it, because they want to charge me half of what I paid for the thing for return shipping. So I guess I'm going to keep it and figure out how to make it work for me, like several of the other reviewers did. Suction: the suction is so strong that it was pulling apart my area rugs. Yes, there is an "adjustment" valve, but it was still doing this even with the valve all the way open. Adjustment valve switch: this feature is of such poor quality that it's constantly falling shut on its own, AND it's located in an awkward place, so if you're holding it naturally, your hand either completely covers the vent, or pushes the switch shut. Extension rods: these are extremely cheap/flimsy feeling and kept detaching from each other and from the handle. I vacuumed ONE room and it fell apart 10+ times! Floor head: as another review mentioned, the "carpet/hard floor" switch does not really move the components of the floor head very much. So, when you use it on hard floors, it doesn't retract enough, and the plastic scrapes/scratches the floor, and when you use it on carpet, the combination of the overly strong suction & the brush makes it nearly impossible to move, and when I did move it, it either made the extension rods fall apart, or it started ripping fibers out of the carpet. It was particularly bad on my area rugs. I will probably end up taping over the brush like the other reviewer did. Dusting brush: for some reason the bristles of the dusting brush are offset, so that when the overly strong suction pulls the dusting brush hard against whatever you're dusting, it scrapes against hard plastic. This is fine for soft surfaces like upholstery, but not so great for things like blinds or air filter dust covers. Emptying the canister: awful. I put the canister all the way inside my trash can before opening it, and it somehow still got dirt all over the place, AND the filter fell out into the trash, AND I still had to stick my hand into the canister to fish out clumps of cat hair that wouldn't come out on their own. Combined, these issues meant I was basically bent double the entire time I was vacuuming, between trying to keep the attachments attached, trying to keep the suction vent open, and trying to keep my area rugs from being pulled off the floor. This is NOT what I wanted, especially given that the reason I wanted a small, lightweight canister vacuum in the first place was because I have hand pain/grip strength issues! Well, it is small and lightweight, and it's strong enough to pick up "tofu" cat litter pellets, which many vacuums are not. But it hurts me more to use than any other vacuum I've used in my life. I guess I'll just have to hope that what the one review said about the extension rods "settling" eventually and staying together better after a while is true, and that taping over the brush on the floor head will make enough of a difference that I won't have to keep reaching down to yank it up off the carpet. And maybe I'll put a rubber band or something on the valve switch to keep it from closing itself. But I have a feeling that I'm going to continue to regret having bought this machine no matter what.

I bought this vacuum in July 2022 and it just died on me. There is no noticeable damage to the cord and I tested each outlet I plugged it into just to make sure I wasn't missing anything. Not sure what happened but this thing was a beast and did the job for almost four years. I do wish it had a stronger suction on carpet but I got what I paid for. I will not be repurchasing (upgrading to a robot vacuum so I can spend less time vacuuming) but I'm grateful for what it did in the time I had it. Other things worth noting: - I have a dog that sheds a little bit. This helped. - The vacuum is quite loud and scared the dog off each time I used it. - I'm short (5'1") and still found myself hunching over to vacuum even using it at it's full height.

Me encantó!!!! Cumplió con mis expectativas al 100% . Buscaba una aspiradora que fuera practica, ligera y de gran potencia, para dejar la abrumadora escoba para barrer los pisos de mi casa. Es el segundo día que la uso y no tengo ningún comentario negativo. Es tan potente que no creo que sirva para aspirar alfombras, ya que su potencia es impresionante y no creo que se pudiera desplazar tan fácil en la alfombra. Pero para mis pisos es sencillamente sensacional!!! La volvería a comprar

Came very quickly. Great power and suction. No beater bar and the floor bar is mediocre, doesn’t always pick things up. The cord is WAY too short, that’s the main downfall. Great for cleaning dust and ceiling fans, very lightweight, easy to carry and vacuum at the same time if you have to get up high etc. If you buy the horse hair brush with it, it makes a fantastic vacuum for dusting high places, shelves, all the corners and baseboards, etc. Not the best for full floor vacuuming.

works great,nice and light.

It is a good vacuum that sucks ok however not that great for a tall person due to Extension Wand cannot be extended extra

Procuto sencillo de usar, excelentes materiales, muy silenciosa y lo mas importante es que tiene un poder de succion extraordinario. La limpieza la hace al 100%
