What Is the Bissell 3061 Featherweight Cordless Stick Vacuum?
You might already be familiar with the corded version of this vacuum. One of our contributors is a fan of the OG Featherweight, which retails for just $34. “Weighing less than 3 pounds, this Bissell gives me no excuse to not tidy every corner and surface of my apartment, from sofa to ceiling fan,” Kendall wrote in her review. “I’ve been known to lift the entire thing up to vacuum ceiling dust bunnies, but it does break down into a handheld vacuum with an extended crevice tool if you’re not as rebellious (or lazy … depending on how you look at it). Regardless, its parts break down, making it easy to store in apartments and homes with limited space. That said, even when it’s fully assembled, the vacuum is slim enough to fit in my tiny coat closet without taking up any more room than my broom.”
This model, the 3061, is slightly different or, dare we say, better. It’s cordless, with a battery that charges in under five hours and provides a run time of 20 minutes. Although this might not be enough time to clean your entire apartment in one go, it’s enough for quick everyday pickups, which is the recommended use for this product. Aside from its cordless design, the Featherweight 3061 has all of the amazing features that made its corded counterpart a standout, including a lightweight design (less than 6 pounds), a crevice tool, and a removable hand vacuum. It also comes with an upholstery brush and features a washable filter and an easy-empty dust bin. Once you’re done using it, the self-standing vacuum can be seamlessly stored in a closet or corner.
What Amazon Reviewers Are Saying
Average Rating: 4.3/5
“We have a bird and two kids in our home. A large bulky vacuum was just too much to take out twice a day. This one is great; we can tuck it into the side of our media console and no one sees it, but it is readily available and light!” — Bowie
“Who would ever think I’d be this excited over a vacuum!?! There is nothing I don’t like about it. The suction is great, it works well on both carpet and wood, the ‘get under the furniture’ button is awesome, the handheld part snaps in and out easily, one of the attachments fits between the stair rails perfectly, and I’m able to vacuum my 2,800-square-foot house…. Now that we have an easier-to-use vacuum that actually works, I’m vacuuming much more often, and I have to dump the canister less often each time. I’m pretty mortified over how much dirt and dog hair the old vacuum was leaving behind. I couldn’t be happier with this new vacuum.” — Jeannie
“I bought this Bissell to replace a several-year-old corded Bissell. My old vacuum was beat up and starting to lose suction. I found this and bought it at a great price of a little over a hundred. I’m very glad I did. It was easy to set up, and it’s easy to operate. The suction power is amazing. It got so much dirt and pet fur out of my carpet that my old Bissell apparently hadn’t. I was astounded. I love that I don’t have to deal with a cord, and I especially love the hand vac. Now I have something to clean out my car with at home. Last but not least: it’s blue, my favorite color.” — Kristal
If you live in a small space — or you need an easy vacuum for everyday cleanups — the Featherweight is perfect for you. Now that it’s on sale for Labor Day, you’ll want to grab it fast. In this case, the ratings don’t lie!
