BISSELL announces new Lift-Off® Multi Cyclonic Pet vacuum

BISSELL Homecare, Inc. has revealed its new Lift-Off Multi Cyclonic Pet vacuum, bringing together the power of an upright and the versatility of a canister in one convenient tool.

With the patented canister that detaches from its upright body, the Lift-Off cleans where other uprights won't. New Multi-Cyclonic technology in this best selling product pulls out embedded dirt and captures more fine dust, extending suction power and keeping filters cleaner longer.

Perfect for pet owners, the 12 amp Lift-Off Multi Cyclonic Pet features a TurboBrush® Pet tool to easily clean pet hair from stairs and upholstery. The TurboBrush combines a rotating brush with rubber fingers that work like magnets to attract and pick up pet hair and a telescoping wand and stretch hose to extend the reach even further.

Plus, the vacuum's HEPA Media Filter is proven to capture 99.9% of pet dander, dust mites, pollen and ragweed to help create a healthier home environment.

Additional features include a15-inch-wide cleaning path with rotating brush, 30-foot power cord, Easy Empty™ dirt container and on-board tools -- telescoping wand, combo tool and crevice tool.

"BISSELL's Lift-Off series of vacuums are the industry's best selling upright units between $150 and $250, and with the new multi-cyclonic technology, we look forward to maintaining our leading position in this category," said Jim Krzeminski, BISSELL's executive vice-president and chief customer officer. "This major upgrade in cyclonic technology proves BISSELL's dedication to product improvement and innovation, and I look forward to unveiling further unit enhancements throughout the remainder of 2009."

The Lift-Off Multi Cyclonic Pet will be featured in BISSELL's television advertising campaign this fall. The Lift-Off Multi Cyclonic Pet has a suggested retail price of $xxx. To order wholesale, call Doug Van Stee at 1-616-791-0658.
