Definitely worth the money

by Bellecent 2007-01-05, 20 people found this review helpful
I love mine! I use another item with rotating brushes for my deep mopping, but we use this little thing for daily clean-ups and have had no problems with things spilling. I've washed the pads and have found them to come out of the wash clean. I really only have two complaints. One, sometimes a little(I'm talking about drops here, definitely not a lot) of the mopping solution leaks out during the vacuum cycle. This is not a problem for me because I plan to mop after I vacuum anyway. The other complaint is that you need to remember to change the pad after vacuuming if you plan to mop. Otherwise, you mop with a dirty pad. Anyway, we love ours and are thrilled to have found it.

An End to Procrastination

I have a large dining/kitchen area with laminate flooring. I have three children, ages 16, 13 and 10- the youngest kids are boys. I have a large blue tick hound and four cats. This floor gets dirty! It requires daily maintenance to look good. Sweeping and mopping requires a lot of stuff to haul out and put away everyday. Needless to say, the floor was NOT getting daily maintenance! I looked at the Swiffer products, but don't like the idea of having to buy their proprietary products every month to use the equipment, not to mention the fact that I would be adding to land fills every time I cleaned my floor.

I have to say that the product I really wanted was the Bissell FlipIt, but until I can afford it, the FlipEaze is great for us. I get enough charge overnight to vacuum the whole floor and I love the fact that it's cordless. Granted, it's not going to pick up big pieces of stuff, but it does a great job getting the dusty stuff that the broom was just pushing up into the air. It's bagless which is also nice. When I'm done vacuuming, I literally can just flip it around and start mopping. It comes with two microfiber pads that can be washed and used again and again. I'm hoping that I can buy them separately because I would like a fresh one everyday. The holding tank is small, secure and can do about three cleanings before needing to be refilled. The FlipEaze comes with a bottle of floor cleaner and you only need a small amount each time you fill the tank so it should last a long time. So far, I've used my FlipEaze twice. The first time there was a considerable amount of streaking, but I am a FlyBaby and I am trying to establish the concept of "done regularly, but imperfectly" rather than "hardly ever done, but done perfectly." [...]. The second day the floor looked A LOT better when I finished and I think day three will be better yet! I love having a tool that is ready to grab and go and once I have more microfiber pads, it truly will be. I highly recommend this product. I would have given it 5 stars if it had come with more pads.

Great for the price

Got it on sale for $20. I have been very happy with it. The vacuum works great and holds a charge long enough for a two bedroom two floor condo with all hard wood floors. I use it in the bathrooms too. You can use any cleaner in it, even vinegar and water. I clean the floors all the time since I got this...its so easy. I'm sure products that use heat or brushes clean better, but the floors look and smell clean to me. Amazing on pet hair. I had the Swiffer wet jet. It didn't vacuum, and broke quickly. With the Swiffer wet jet you have to use their expensive solution (the Bissel can use anything), has batteries for the solution spray, and disposable pads. The Swiffer is very expensive to use over time.

So Far So Good

by Lablover 2007-10-18, 13 people found this review helpful
Just started using the Bissell FlipEase. So far I am very please. We have a big yellow lab that comes in with wet dirty feet after being out in the Pacific NW rain. I am so thrilled to have something to vacuum the kitchen floor and then flip it over and mop up any footprints, etc. I did not purchase this as the heavy duty appliance, this is just for the quick vac after dinner and to get up light spill or gunk on the floor.

2 Months later - still love this product. Several slight negatives though. One, I have trouble getting mine to stand up straight on its own so I have to lean it against the wall or something when not in use.
Second, the sprayer does not always shoot out a lot of fluid. I have used a sewing needle to open up the holes (don't know if they get clogged or what). BUT.... I still like this very well and use it daily to vacuum the kitchen floor and do a quick mop. Well worth the money.

Love it!

This is what I use it on - 800 sq. feet of laminate and a tile entry way. I have 3 cats and 2 small dogs. This is by far the best product I have used to keep my floors looking and smellling clean between weekend scubs. The vacuum is great for picking up pet hair, cat litter and other messes. The mop performs a little weaker than the swifer mop but still its better than nothing. What I love most is that it is ECONOMICAL. No batteries, no bags, and no overpriced disposable mop pads. I found that changing the pad after I vacuum and before I mop gives me better results, so you may want to buy extra pads.

Flip Eaze

I absolutely love the product. It makes my life of sweeping and mopping a breeze. However I will have to do the occasionally scrubbing or sweeping for bigger items, but still a great buy all together!

It's So Handy

by Doris R. Kem 2007-07-10, 8 people found this review helpful
I think the bissell flip eaze is so handy because you don't have to plug it in, it picks up dog and cat hair just great, and with the flip of a handle, you pull the trigger to release the cleaner, and mop away. I don't think this is for your weekly (or bi-weekly in my case) deep cleaning, but it does great on a day-to-day basis. I have two dogs and two cats so we have a lot of animal hair collecting on our hard floors. If you have pets, you're sure to love it. The reason I don't give it 5 stars is because, it will not pick up larger pieces of debris such as plant leaves.

Easy to use.

I got this for an apartment with two guys who hate to clean. I figured if I got a cool gadget that also cleans maybe they will us it. well, my plan worked perfectly! not only do they use it in the kitchen, but the bathroom as well. It does a great job cleaning the floors. They only thing I would suggest is making sure that you completely vacuum the floor first. If your floor is heavily soiled (like theirs was) it may take some elbow grease on the first try. After that keep up is easy.

I love this product. It is so easy to work without having to plug in a cord. It sucks up the dirt effectively and the flip side does an excellent job of mopping. Very glad I bought it.

Love it

This thing is great. It gets all the pet hair from my tile floors. I have a Beagle and she shed a lot!!! This thing keeps me from going insane with pet hair. Very easy to use.
