Bissell Digi-Pro 6900 . . .
Original Message   Apr 27, 2009 8:19 am
Hi,

Does anyone have current info on the Bissell Digi-Pro canister (Model 6900)? It's been around for a few years now and is still on the shelves so I must assume there's something to it. Reviews I've read are generally favorable save for issues regarding design and availability of bags and belts.

Hi Carmine,

Thanks for the specs you posted. I "think" it was reviewed by CR maybe a year or two back and as I recall they didn't rave about it. Matter of fact, that was the thing that got me wondering if it could be all that bad and still showing up at the stores. However, per Dusty's input and keeping the budget-minded in mind, sounds like a keeper.

I've always thought it to be a rather attractive machine.  I like those stats... self-propelled, huh?  I've never seen a self-propelled canister... which part is self-propelled?  The power nozzle or the canister base?

Neither.  It's the cord retraction on the rewind that's self-propelled.

Thanks Venson.  I must have missed the CR review.
