Bissell Powerforce Bagged 3522-1 Upright Vacuum
This is a Bissell Powerforce Bagged model 3522-1 upright vacuum, (which I believe to be from the mid 2000s) that I bought from my local state thrift store after always wanting one. This was a Bissell model that I greatly remember from childhood, as my family members used to have this similar model at their family ranch years ago to replace an old Dirt Devil Featherlite that broke a fan and was an absolute screamer. These older Samsung made Bissell's are quite nostalgic design for me, and these old Bissell's were very popular and were sold everywhere in their day. This is probably the most basic of Bissell that they sold back in the day and was sold for pretty cheap at Walmart back in its time. This came with all of the attachments except for the combo tool, and I recently put a fresh new set of filters as well as an aftermarket HEPA cloth bag, and new belt and now it performs amazing. The one thing I like about this model of Bissell, is it was before the days this lineup of vacuums got cheap and they lost simple things like the headlight, and went down to a 10 amp motor. This features a 12 amp motor with clean air design and. The suction is good, the airflow is good as well, not the best, and the agitation is very good on it as well (I like the sound it makes when it hits the carpet). My complaint about this machine is that is how Bissell got cheap on the build quality, but this is still a very great vacuum, and it's arguably better than their later versions.
