The only Bissell I have is 82h1. It's really beat up and it needs a new Handle Release, hose, lower hose, belt, brushroll, and height adjust plate. Maybe even an entirely new base assembly altogether? I do agree that the newer Bissells are shitty with poor build quality.

I have a 1995 Lift Off 11 amp model. It's kind of plasticky and clunky but pretty good quality. I just finished cleaning it up recently. I like how it has two motors.
Some of the newer Bissells I still like. I think the bagged models are quite good, especially the Powerforce for the price. Some of the bagless, especially the basic ones with the foam filters were a mess to clean out although not bad to use. | ||

Currently I don't have any bissell in my collection and I usually have bad luck with them mostly they're bagless cleanviews and bagless powerforces but they're bagged powerforces and PowerGlides are alright for the price at the time and you can upgrade them with hepa bags which is great. There are bissells that I do want to get like the Prolite which is like a singer twin fan and a oreck had a baby and came out with this and also the original bissell plus/bagged lift offs because they're very quirky machines be it not the best since they suffered problems with the power head but they're pretty nice.

Sweepmaster
No Bissells here but when I was a little kid, we had a Bissell Sweepmaster similar to the one in the link below. It made the rounds in the family over the years, but sadly never to me. My parents passed it to my grandmother and then my sister ended up with it. The last time I saw it was at her vacation home in western N.C. and that's been a few years ago.

I had a Bissell like the OP's; bought it new in 2014. It was the purple rewind model. The winder pretty much gave up at the end of the year. I cleaned it out and regularly replaced filters. It still blew clouds of dust. It went in the trash a few years later.
Older Bissells? I have 2 different Singer soft shells, can post a pic in a bit. Both work real nice, got one from a collector on eBay. I have some newer ones too, such as the powergroom helix, but they aren't really worth mentioning. I know a guy who has a Pureair for sale, but it is missing I believe the fan case and maybe other stuff. | ||

Fun fact: you can still by the Pro Lite, now under the Powr Flite label.
