Go for it if you...
You have a small apartment with primarily hard floors, no carpet, no pets, and no household members with allergies or respiratory sensitivities — and you want the lightest, cheapest option for quick daily maintenance passes.
You're buying this as a second vacuum to supplement a primary HEPA unit — the Bissell handles quick daily passes while the main vacuum handles deep cleaning sessions.
Portability is your single highest priority: at 4.2lbs, the Bissell is 2.5lbs lighter than the lightest Dyson option in this category, which matters for dorm rooms, studio apartments, or RVs.
Battery safety and longevity matter to you — the Miele's TÜV-certified, user-replaceable battery means a degraded battery gets a $849 swap instead of a $849+ vacuum replacement.
You want the only vacuum in the category that tells you what the filter is made of: Miele discloses 'non-toxic synthetic fiber,' avoiding fiberglass filter media that all other brands leave undisclosed.
Your cleaning is primarily on hard floors and low-pile carpet where 145Pa suction is fully adequate and the filtration and battery safety advantages justify the choice.
The main thing to know
The Bissell CleanView Slim is not a vacuum for families with allergies, asthma, or pets. Its non-HEPA filter exhausts 35% of fine particles back into the room. It serves one specific use case well: quick, light maintenance cleaning in a small hard-floor space where extreme portability (4.2lbs) and low price ($192) are the primary buying criteria.
The Miele Triflex HX2 earns its place at the top of this category on two specific safety advantages: a TÜV-certified user-replaceable battery — unique in the category — and Miele's disclosure of non-toxic synthetic filter material, which no competitor publishes. The honest trade: lower suction (145Pa vs Dyson's 185–262Pa), shorter single-battery runtime (35 min), and a smaller dustbin (0.45L). For families buying on a 5-year horizon who value battery replaceability, material transparency, and the strongest independent battery certification available, this is the category's top safety pick.
Skip this if you...
Your household has allergies or asthma — the non-HEPA filter captures only 65% of fine particles, and the remaining 35% exhaust back into the room during use.
You have carpet in your home — 32Pa suction is inadequate for extracting embedded debris from carpet fibers; all HEPA options in this category deliver 4–8x more suction.
You need more than 22 minutes of continuous cleaning time — this vacuum cannot cover a standard-size home in a single charge.
You have thick-pile carpet and need high suction power — 145Pa is the lowest measured suction among sealed-HEPA vacuums in this set, and the Dyson V15 Detect (230Pa) is a better choice for carpet-heavy homes.
You need 50–60 minutes of continuous runtime without pausing to swap batteries — the Shark Stratos (60 min) and Samsung Bespoke Jet (60 min) deliver this without the battery purchase add-on.
You need a large dustbin for pet hair — the 0.45L capacity is the smallest in the category and will require more frequent emptying than the Dyson options (0.77L).
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?
