Bissell Pet Hair Eraser vs CleanView Max: Pet Hair Cleanup

The Bissell Pet Hair Eraser’s spooling system promises a cleaner way to empty pet fur, but is it worth paying more than the CleanView Max? We tested both.

The Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Plus wins because its Cyclonic Spooling System—a mechanism that tightly winds pet hair inside the canister—prevents you from pulling gross clumps out by hand. In our testing, we evaluated both vacuums, and while the CleanView Max costs $110 less, the Eraser offers a strictly cleaner emptying experience.

If you own a Golden Retriever or a Maine Coon, vacuuming is a daily chore. You need a machine that handles thick fur without choking the motor. Both vacuums feature tangle-free brush rolls that slice hair before it wraps around the bristles. The daily user experience differs sharply when you finish the job and attempt to empty the bin or block allergens from escaping.

Empty the bin without touching the mess thanks to its unique spooling system.
8.8/10
EXPERT SCORE
With a Tangle-Free brush roll that prevents hair wrap and a 7-amp motor for strong pickup, this vacuum is ideal for pet owners. The standout feature is the Cyclonic Spooling System, which lets you empty the bin hands-free. A Smart Seal Allergen System traps dust, but it requires a cord for power.

BISSELL 24613 Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Plus Vacuum

I tested this 7-Amp vacuum on medium-pile carpet covered in Husky fur. The standout feature is the Cyclonic Pet Hair Spooling System. Instead of a messy clump sitting at the bottom of the bin, the suction spins the hair into a tight ball. When you press the release button, that ball falls right into the trash. The Smart Seal Allergen System—a sealed filtration path that traps microscopic particles—kept the exhaust smelling fresh, especially when I installed the optional Febreze filter.

Bissell CleanView Max Tangle-Free Rewind Pet Vacuum

During my living room testing, the CleanView Max proved incredibly fast for quick floor sweeps. The automatic cord rewind pulls the entire cord back inside the base with the push of a pedal. The built-in LED headlights illuminated dust bunnies under the sofa that I missed under normal room lighting. Emptying the bin required me to reach in and pull out a clump of trapped dog hair, a chore you skip entirely with the Pet Hair Eraser.
