I was on Ebay a few days ago, & found an online seller that had something quite unique, or at least something I have never seen before. It's a version of the Bissell Healthy Home 5770, but instead it has "Heavy Duty" written on the dirtcup instead of the Healthy Home writing.

So, has anyone here seen or heard of this vacuum before? Is this perhaps a commercial version of the Healthy Home?

That has been out for about a year and a half now. It is just called a Heavy Duty vacuum because it is big I'm guessing. They sell it at Walmart, and it's no different than the Healthy Home.

I have seen them at Wal-mart in the past.... not sure if mine still has it or not though.

Just went to the Bissell website......

And found out that it is merely the replacement for the original Bissell Healthy Home 5770. One thing I noticed that is a bit tacky, is that they have the nerve to say the filter is certified but not the vacuum itself- leading one to think, especially when the newest Healthy Home is advertised as having "Airetight HEPA filtration", that it is NOT a sealed HEPA vacuum, when all of us collectors know it IS a sealed HEPA vacuum.

Sounds like they are trying to get consumers to needlessly spend more money on a sealed HEPA vacuum by buying the newer model. Oh well, so much for companies having honest marketing these days!
