Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of BISSELL Sturdy Sweep Sweeper, 2402B
Customer Review: I am amazed at how good this carpet sweeper works
Summary: 5 Stars
For $24 this carpet sweeper is a steal in my opinion. Come on! People spend that much on dinner at a restaurant! I have only had it for a couple of weeks, but I am already convinced that it is fantastic.
You DO have to spend some time cleaning it out pretty often. I was shocked to see that it had picked up a LOT of my own hair, which is rather long and twisted round and round the brush. What amazes me even more is that just before I discovered that it was literally packed with my hairs, it was STILL cleaning and picking up stuff just a few minutes before. How does it do that?! Amazing.
If you have longer hair like me (mine is probably 12-16" long) it is a bit of a hassle removing the hairs from the roller. Best to remove the roller entirely from the bottom of the pan and use scissors to cut a lot of the hairs.
I am very glad that I read a lot of reviews before purchasing this carpet cleaner; thus, I knew the importance of using a hammer to connect the pieces of the handle before screwing onto the bottom portion so that the handle would not fall apart.
If you don't mind cleaning the brush of the sweeper -- and frequently -- I think you will probably like this sweeper as much as I do. I did not want a vacuum cleaner because I have no place to put a vacuum cleaner without it being visible at all times. This little sweeper can handily fit in a pantry or under the bed and is perfect for my needs. I don't bother sweeping the kitchen floor with it (for that I use a small broom). I think it works best on low-pile carpet only.

This is junk! I used to own a real Bissell carpet sweeper.... 1970's... If I had found this at a garage sale I would have thought it was a child's toyCustomer Review: Just what I wanted

Summary: 4 Stars
After reading so many reviews about the handle, I was nervous. But, as clearly instructed on the package, my husband struck the handle and it has been bomb proof. Kids ages 18 months, 5 and 9 have been able to use it (roughly at times) with no problem with the handle.
I have to admit, that I was trying to replace my super-old Orek sweeper that they just don't make any more...I thought. I tried the expensive ($70+ dollar) sweeper with rubber fins instead of a brush and it worked great on my carpet, but not on the hardwood or tile. So, I tried this one.
It works great. I could see where you may want to go with the dual brushes if you have the space, but we don't. Also, this design is EXACTLY like my old Orek. And it is made out of...ta da...metal. The metal makes it heavy enough to pick up without applying pressure.
It does take a little while for the plastic where the handle connects to the body to relax (a couple of weeks of careful use) so that it doesn't scrape wood floors, but I was vigilant for the first few uses and now it is fine.
Keep that brush comb as well (maybe somewhere other than the handle of the sweeper, so it doesn't get knocked off). It really keeps the brush looking and working like new.
I've had this for several months and would recommend it for someone who wants to do quick kid/pet clean up on multiple types of floors.
