What testers say about the Bissell FlexClean FurForce

For anyone in a small home without pets, the Bissell FlexClean FurForce is better run as a vacuum alone, which is the use the tester suggested for it.

Fur gave the Bissell FlexClean FurForce more trouble than anything else in testing. Just A Dad Approved marked pet hair 4 out of 10, on a list where the typical robot gets 6.5, and traced the trouble to the channel that carries dirt from robot to station. Its opening starts square and turns round further in, so hair wedges in the passage. From then on the bin is no longer emptied, it fills, and the robot keeps driving its rounds without collecting anything and without any warning.

Mopping drew the same 4, with 7.5 the lab's middle mark. The flat pad streaked some floors, and because the station handles dust only, the pad is washed by hand. The tester did see the pad rise dependably whenever the sensor met carpet. A side brush that swings outward to reach along walls is a rarity, fitted to just 5% of the robots that come with a dust-collecting station of this sort.
