    A Bissell handheld vacuum has the durability of its full-sized counterpart and the convenience of a smaller unit designed to go easily where you need it. The Bissell models are a little more expensive than others, but tend to deliver on their promise to offer a durable and well-designed vacuum. The payback comes in the design of the handheld models, which tend to be more cutting edge and ergonomic than other handheld vacuums available. The Bissell handheld models offer cordless and corded options. The battery operated models tend to have a short run time. Bissells offer good filtration and decent suction for a vacuum of their size.
