It stands 46 inches tall and weighs over 19 pounds, which puts it into more bigger, heavier side of vacuums.

The BISSELL swivel rewind pet vacuum is easy to maintain and the recurring costs aren’t actually that high. Everything from the brush-roll to dirt compartment seems to work fine. You can easily detach the brush-roll by removing screws adhering it.

The dirt compartment is also easily removable and can be cleaned when necessary. As for the recurring costs, there are a few minor ones. First is with pre-motor filters as they are needed to be replaced overtime (around 6 months) in order to work consistently. Another is with vacuum belts, they might also need to get replaced but that depends on usability and if it is damaged or not – this is a pretty rare thing to have to repair.
