Bissell Crosswave HF2 Hard Floor Cleaner Demonstration & Review

In this video I assemble and demonstrate the Bissell Crosswave HF2 mains powered hard floor washer.
Details below from Bissell’s website:
The BISSELL® CrossWave® HF2 wet and dry vacuum saves time by combining two cleaning steps in one, vacuuming and washing your hard floors in one go. Simply turn on and clean!
Designed for busy families, this all-in-one cleaner with unlimited corded power is ideal for cleaning daily messes on all your hard floors.
Enjoy easier cleaning with self-propelled steering, one auto cleaning mode and automatic fluid delivery for the right amount onto floors every time. The CrossWave® HF2 wet and dry vacuum tackles both wet and dry messes across multiple sealed hard floor surfaces in your home, including wood, tile, linoleum, and laminate.
Unlike the traditional mop and bucket, our Two-Tank Technology keeps the clean and dirty water separate, therefore you will always clean your hard floors with fresh, clean water. When you’re done cleaning, the CrossWave® HF2 self-cleans with a push of a button, cleaning the brush roll and the inside of the machine ready for the next use.
Two separate tanks for clean & dirty water: Two-Tank Technology. Always cleans with fresh solution.
Lightweight & Easy to manoeuvre: Easy to carry and self-propelled steering.
Automatic self-cleaning: Self Cleans with a push of a button.

I don’t know why manufacturers don’t supply those extra few inches of cable so that the plug hangs over the top cord hook.

[@WJCTechyman]

It may depend on which direction you wrap it and how tight the cable is when you wrap it. With my cords I tend to do a looser wrap to preserve the integrity.

[@Ron-Ayres]

£/$/€ probably. If you add up the difference over a million units it would be significant, I imagine.

[@huskyvacs]

6:33 I love how dogs are. They just see a silly man talking in a strange language to a machine that makes a scary noise and have no idea whats going on and just want to be petted.

[@Lintahlo]

Feel like headlights are even more essential for these floor cleaners. They would help a lot

[@Boodieman72]

I bought the original Crosswave because of your review and it's an amazing tool for cleaning my kitchen floor.

[@The-Elfin-Knight]

Me too! I do love it but so noisy!

[@012wtfez8]

Ready for takeoff

[@012wtfez8]

are all boxes sealed with plastic wrapping? Mine wasnt and was faulty, seem used

[@yuenrainbow]

If you encounter long hair while cleaning the floor, will it get stuck in the roller?

[@ibaisaic]

I have never encountered long hair so I can’t answer that, but I’ve never had anything wrap itself around the rollers of all the floor washers I have used.

[@JayJay0805]

In the sink??? 💀

[@ibaisaic]

I have no problem in pouring stuff down the sink as I don’t eat out of it, or do any washing up in it either.

[@WJCTechyman]

Neat machine, not too fond of the idea of replacing the roller every six months but what can you do? The UK plug, with its benefits the one draw back is the hefty size as it can probably equate to the large 240 V or 120/240 V dryer or stove plugs we have here in Canada and the US. For my hard floors I use my Rainbow with the wet hard floor attachment. Not too often do I use it but it works relatively well. Part of the reason is the setup and storage of the various components but I like it for a true clean.

[@huskyvacs]

I never bought one of these because I was always concerned about if the mop roller would start stinking and smelling funky. I also have textured linoleum so I am not sure if it would work so good on my floor.

[@Jack-t5y]

The crosswave works very well, but I can’t say from experience that the crosswave does smell sometimes. I like to suck up something that smells good to get rid of the smell, and just clean it every couple uses

[@huskyvacs]

@@Jack-t5y Ah OK. Maybe for the self clean rinse, put some enzymatic shampoo or fragrance cleaner in the container to rinse the roller with.

[@martynj-c4965]

Thanks for replying lol

[@user-Roberto00]

Nelle televendite in Italia la persona che fa la dimostrazione mette il filtro epa sotto il rubinetto lo lava tutto poi lo reinstalla e fa partire subito la macchina,ma davvero si può fare una cosa del genere?e il motore?

[@012wtfez8]

Thanks for vid. I have superior solution but they say in the booklet using other solution is harmful?

[@ibaisaic]

You can use whatever solution you like, but if it causes any damage to your machine, Bissell won’t honour the warranty.

[@patriciomonti773]

[@Ron-Ayres]

I see Rug Doctor has just released a new hard floor/carpet combi cleaner - the *_FlexClean_* All-In-One Floor Cleaner.
I wonder how that might compare to this... 🤔

[@ibaisaic]

Not new at all if it’s the same one in this video. th-cam.com/video/OBurB1kkXNI/w-d-xo.html

[@Ron-Ayres]

@@ibaisaic Aha, RugDoctor are still describing it on their website as their "latest hard floor cleaner" so I assumed it was relatively new!
"Latest" clearly doing a lot of heavy lifting here...

[@ioankaraivanov4971]

Which one would you choose between this model and the shark or tineco?

[@ibaisaic]

The Bissell.

[@ioankaraivanov4971]

@@ibaisaicThanks for answering. If it is not too much to ask, can you elaborate why?

[@ibaisaic]

@@ioankaraivanov4971 Because I prefer a mains powered machine that won’t run out of charge during cleaning.

[@johnslife4993]

You still have the Shark IONFLEX?

[@ibaisaic]

I bought it for my Mum who still uses it.
