Bissell
Bissell Crosswave Turbo Vacuum Mop All in One Wet and Dry Vac Combo Hard Floor & Area Rug Cleaner, 3888A
Best for
Households with mostly sealed hard surfaces and low-pile area rugs, especially pet owners who want mopping and light debris pickup in one go; skip it if you have wall-to-wall carpet or need to handle large, dry messes like scattered pet food.
What buyers say
The Bissell Crosswave leaves hard floors cleaner than a mop and bucket, cutting down on the chore of vacuuming and washing separately. It is not a true all in one though; clogs with larger debris mean you will likely sweep first and keep a standard vacuum for deep carpet.
Loved by buyers
- •Floors come out genuinely clean, with no sticky film when you switch to the hardwood floor formula.
- •Separate clean and dirty water tanks mean you never push gray water around, a real upgrade from traditional mopping.
- •The self-cleaning cycle simplifies post-use rinse down and helps the roller last longer.
Buyer concerns
- •It clogs easily with pet hair and crumbs unless you sweep first, so it cannot replace your regular vacuum.
- •The included multi-surface brush can leave faint marks on hardwood that only disappear with the optional hardwood brush.
- •Many owners report a thin line of dirty water left along baseboards or on the floor after a pass, requiring a quick manual wipe.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it work on hardwood floors?+
Yes, but we recommend buying the dedicated hardwood floor brush and using Bissell’s hardwood formula. The stock multi-surface brush can leave drag marks that show once the floor dries.
Can I use it on area rugs?+
Yes, it shampoos and vacuums low-pile rugs effectively, pulling up pet odors and drying quickly. It is not designed for thick or high-pile carpet.
How do I keep it from smelling?+
Run the self-clean cycle after each use and wash the roller frequently. Having a spare roller helps because the brush roll can hold odor after about 20 minutes of continuous mopping.
Is it loud?+
Yes, it is as loud as a full-size vacuum, so early morning or late night cleaning may disturb others. You will need to plan around quiet hours.
