| mommykd's Full Review: Bissell 3600 Barbie Bagless Upright Vacuum |
My 5 year old daughter received the Bissell 3600 Barbie Bagless Upright Vacuum for Christmas last year. I am sure it was the result of one of those last minute late night outings and Mrs. Claus was in the spirit and feeling a little generous. After all - this was to be her first Christmas without her Daddy and the little princess needed a little pampering. As it turns out, Mommy got pampered too, because for the past 4 months, the princess has vacuumed her own bedroom.
This vacuum cleaner is not just a toy - it is a real, working vacuum that picks up! It is a very lightweight and compact vacuum - pink with the Barbie logo and Barbie flower stickers. This vacuum easily stores behind the door, or nestles neatly sitting on the floor between the toy shelves in my daughter's room. The design enables it to blend into the decor of her room without looking as if she has a vacuum cleaner among her toys!
Granted, Barbie Bissell has no super suction power, and will not vacuum your entire house. It does not have a large bag or filter for large jobs. It does however, run on a rechargeable battery, and turns on simply by pulling back on the upright handle. The handle is height adjustable also. The small, removable filter can be pulled out, dumped, cleaned and replaced with relative ease. Best of all, it enables my 5 year old daughter to feel as if she is a big girl and helping me out around the house by cleaning her own room all by herself!.
Other great uses I have discovered include quick sweeps of the stairs and foyer entry, cleaning up the cat litter the cat tracks through the bathroom, and also cleaning up potting soil spills when the 2 year old turns over a plant!
