The Bissell Zing 1665 is a lightweight bagless canister vacuum for homes and small offices. A canister design puts the motor and dirt tank on the floor behind you rather than in your hands, which keeps the working weight down when you are doing stairs, upholstery and above-floor work. It is a cyclonic bagless machine, so there are no bags to buy and the dirt cup empties directly into the trash.

Keeping a bagless canister working
Bagless machines trade the cost of bags for a little more routine attention. Empty the dirt tank before it reaches the fill line rather than after, since an overfilled cyclone loses separation efficiency and starts loading the filters. Wash or replace the filters on the schedule in your owner's manual and let any washed filter dry completely before it goes back in, because a damp filter will restrict airflow and can grow odor. If suction drops off suddenly, check the hose and the cleaning path for a blockage before assuming a motor problem. Let the cord rewind under control rather than releasing it all at once.
