Is the Bissell PowerClean FurGuard worth it?
Yes — for pet owners on a budget.
The brush cleans itself so fur doesn't wrap, there's a headlight for dark corners, and the spare battery means long cleans. It's on the heavy side and the bin is small.
Good to know
- The tester got about 77 minutes on mixed settings, short of the claimed 100.
- The weight is noticeable on long cleans.
- Fur doesn't wrap the brush
- Spare battery for long cleans
- Headlight and HEPA filter

How we reached this verdict
WitchDoctor found the self-cleaning brush kept pet hair off the roller, suction was strong for a cordless and the battery ran well over an hour. It's heavy-ish with a small bin, but it's a strong pet pick at its price.
We compared independent expert reviews with the manufacturer's specifications, then checked it's sold at a major retailer where you live. We don't test products ourselves.
