Like an old-fashioned Hoover, you simply push the handle into an upright position and, voila, it stands up on its own. With it, you can keep track of the maintenance and replacement intervals for its brushroll, filter, and detergent levels, not to mention batter life. The suction power was also a big surprise as I feel like it works really well as a vacuum in itself as well as having the extra wash function. This is handy, as it means that you can use it to pick up wet spills, say when you make a mess cooking. Whilst we love having a hard floor in our downstairs area with a cat and two kids there is always some kind of fluff or dust or cat hair gathering in the corners by the end of the day.

Bissell sells its own multi-surface liquid and you get 1-litre in the box; you can use your own floor cleaner, mixed to the right ratio, if you prefer. Inside the system is a float: when the tank is full of water, it the float rises and shuts the cleaner from sucking up any more water. Derek (aka Delbert, Delvis, Delphinium, Delboy etc) specialises in home and outdoor wares, from coffee machines, white appliances and vacs to drones, garden gear and BBQs. The Samsung is a more conventional cordless stick vacuum that you can bundle with a somewhat unique 'Spinning Sweeper' floorhead, which uses rotating mop pads to scrub-away stains.Since this is a new product, there are not yet any reviews for the BISSELL CrossWave Cordless Max online. Manoeuvrability is pretty good, too, with the flexible joint to the floor head making it easy to corner and move around furniture. Everything in this container is washable, so you can keep the CrossWave Cordless in its best operating condition. A lighter, more powerful cleaner than its predecessor, the combination of vacuum and cleaning performance makes the Bissell CrossWave Cordless Max a great all-round tool for keeping hard floors and the occasional rug at the best. Safe to use on tile, sealed wood floors, laminate, linoleum, rubber floor mats, pressed wood floors, area rugs and more.

The BISSELL CrossWave Cordless Max is effectively a cordless version of the BISSELL CrossWave Pet Pro hybrid vacuum mop.

Handy LED lights at the front of the Cordless Max illuminate the area you’re cleaning, so you’re unlikely to miss any dirt. If you’re in the market for an exceedingly competent hard floor cleaner that tackles all types of flooring including sealed wood with consummate aplomb, the Bissell CrossMax Cordless is the machine for you. That’s why we’re excited to introduce you to the BISSELL CrossWave Cordless Max, the machine that vacuums, mops and dries in one go. You'll probably need to make several passes to fully clean most stains, and a hand mop will likely be more efficient in cleaning stubborn stains since you can manually provide a greater degree of surface agitation.

This time it took a few sweeps to really get most of the stain out but there was still a bit of a mark at the end. The unique brush roll scrubs and washes floors for a deeper clean, without releasing dirty water back onto your floor. Bissell says that the edge performance is 60% better here than on the CrossWave Cordless – and it would appear so; there was just a small trace of dirt left to be collected. The roller itself measures nine inches (about 23cm) in width and is made from a soft wooly material with several extended bristles for scrubbing obstreperous substances off the floor. Simple controls, great performance and a neat charging station makes this a great all-in-one tool, but if you’ve got lots of hard floors to clean in one go, the fixed battery may be a limiting factor.

For day-to-day cleaning of rugs the Bissell CrossWave Cordless can do a good job, but for a deeper clean a proper carpet cleaner will do a better job of it. Clean and dirty water is kept in separate tanks, ensuring you are always using fresh water and solution on your floors. Once you’ve finished a clean, you can drop the Bissell CrossWave Cordless onto its charging dock, which also acts as a floor protector.
