AWESOME! and so. i need to thank you for your demo! THANK YOU BABY ROSE! lol All the best! Keep smiling, stay beautiful and safe!

I have the corded model, so I do not have to worry about charging and losing charge. Best thing I ever bought! So much better than the old fashioned mop and bucket and it uses less water too.

[@nicolebaker3974]

We ordered ours last weekend and it should be here by the end of this coming week. Right now we use the house vacuum and then a steam cleaner on the floors. The problem with the steam cleaner is that it takes about 5 changes of the pads for each room. We found this online, read reviews, watched Bissell's videos as well as KZbin by people like yourself. I'm really looking forward to getting ours. It will get used everyday. We have 5 small dogs who leave paw prints all over the hardwood flooring. 🌹❤

[@RoseBaby]

Yay! Hope you like it.

I just found out about your channel and you give amazing, honest reviews -- thank you so much and keep up the great work! I also noticed you reviewed the BISSELL Spinwave mop about a year ago. What would you say the differences between the Spinwave and Crosswave are, and which one do you prefer using? Your floors look amazing, so I wonder which machine cleans your floors more efficiently. Looking forward to your response because I am definitely thinking of buying the Crosswave soon :)

[@RoseBaby]

Thank you so much for watching and for your comment, I appreciate your feedback. These two machines are great but to be honest I like the spinwave little better than the crosswave I do feel it cleans better and needs very easy maintenance the crosswave needs some extra work after you finish using it plus it uses more water too.

[@vanesamendoza]

I absolutely love how it’s cordless😩😍 anything that’s cordless is my favorite🙈I also love how it’s easy to charge and how it holds the roller👏

HELP! With no change on my part, I turned my cordless max today and it ran for 3 seconds and turned off. I changed the tank and really tightened the doohickey that lets the water out because it was leaking. I got that all fixed up, but still only 3 seconds on. I really NEED this to work. My dog isn''t completely trained, so I use it in the living room every day. It has been wonderful, but it's hurting my heart right now. Any ideas what I should try?

[@jackie4588]

Does the machine actually into the grout and scrub the dirt out? I have tile throughout my entire house and getting the dirt out from the grout has been back breaking. Can I put hot water in the water tank?

[@oasiasoasiaso]

Thank you for this nice video. Do you prefer the Crosswave over the Spinwave?

[@RoseBaby]

@Jürgen Bolke Honestly, now that I have been using it long enough I have to say it really depends if you want to really deep clean your floor the Spinwave is for that, but the Crosswave is good for quick cleaning when you don’t have time to vacuum or you have kids with a lot of accidents. If I really have to choose between the two I Personally prefer the Spinwave.

[@oasiasoasiaso]

@@RoseBaby Thank you very much for your kind response in detail. Your opinion equals exactly mine. It is quieter and i like the easy way of changing the pads. And i have no carpets. I ordered one yesterday and i am looking forward to clean my parquet 🙂

[@tweetiebird]

Sounds good but it seems they want to avoid actually turning it on and letting us hear how loud it is. Although I could tell it seems very sturdy and guess why it commands the big bucks 360.00 on sale right now. Has Litheium battery I believe which is another big plus, cleans along base boards and you can grab and go very portable without an electrical cord. I like the dual containers so you are always moping with clean water where I had to constantly empty my bucket to not wash with dirty water and still have to go over floors with a clean mop in the end.

[@RoseBaby]

I’m sorry if I took too long but you can fast forward it to 8:34 I let you hear how it sounds. Thank you for your patience

[@jacobhunnicutt8474]

So we have three boys so we use our current cordless vacuum almost constantly. The convenience is the biggest advantage for us. Crumbs all over the floor, grab it quick for clean up, put it back. Maybe clean once a month- maybe. So deal breaker question, is that an option with this thing? Can we use as just a vacuum to grab multiple times a day for a quick clean up or do you have to go through this whole water dump and clean process every time you use it?

[@RoseBaby]

Bissell said it’s for wet and dry cleaning , the water comes out only when you press the trigger button but honestly I don’t think it's intended for dry vacuuming only I think it works best with water. Especially if you are planning on vacuuming carpets because the roller is too soft for that.

[@Magicmark243]

What do you prefer for floor mopping. Crosswave or spinwave. Great video.

[@RoseBaby]

The Crosswave it’s definitely very convenient because it vacuums and mopes the floor at the same time but I think the spinwave cleans the floor a little better. My favorite mop is the Bissell Symphony I highly recommend you check that one out first before you make your decision, here is a link for my review video on the Symphony kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGmplHSJaJhqa5I It doesn’t only vacuum but it’s also a steam mop so it deep cleans and sanitizes the floor. It amazes me how clean my floors look.

[@BBYodi]

hello how does this compare to your more resent purchase of the same brand steam and vacuum mop? and also, for both, which one is good or better at picking up hair?

[@RoseBaby]

I like the symphony because personally I’ve been obsessed with steam mopping and sanitizing my floor. I don't know if it picks up pet hairs as I don't have a pet but when I was researching both machines I read people reviews saying the crosswave works well for pet hair and I can see why because it has a special brush and formula for pets and the strainer inside the dirty water tank it catch the hair and debris so that makes it easy to clean. For the symphony people said it does vacuum up pet hair but depends on the type of pet hair (long or short) you might just have to empty the dirt cup more often.

[@SidneyClaudia1]

[@RoseBaby]

[@temitopeadewusi7768]

I just got mine last night and used it today. I love it. I do agree with you that it doesn’t deep clean/sterilise the floor. What steam cleaner who you recommend please?

I have the Crosswave Pet model. It works great but is so heavy to manuevre.

[@Bigstevoreno0655]

You said once the vac is fully charged you can use it for about thirty (30) minutes. What I didn't hear you say was how long the vac would take to fully recharge once you've used it for thirty (30) minutes and totally drained the vac's battery down to zero. Nice house you have by the way. 😎👍🇺🇦

[@RoseBaby]

Thank you, Stevo. The battery takes about 4 hours to fully charge again.

[@Bigstevoreno0655]

So Bissell also makes a "corded" model? I'll have to look for it online because I would never buy a "cordless" model to use for (30) minutes and then have to recharge it for (4) hours before I can use it for (30) minutes again.

[@RoseBaby]

@@Bigstevoreno0655 If you have to mop a large house that would be definitely a problem but yes, they definitely sell the corded version of this crosswave and it’s little bit cheaper too.

[@ChabelaFlips]

Symphony or crosswave? I currently have the regular crosswave but after 3 years I need a replacement and well I’ve been looking at Bissells other vac/mop/steam products and I’m not sure which to purchase. I have kids so I try mopping once a week while I vacuum everyday.. I just keep reading that the vacuum part of the symphony is not the best,,I don’t really want to spend the money if it doesn’t really do a good job. And is it as loud as the crosswave (80db?) is it quicker since it probably doesn’t release as much water and I don’t have to keep passing over it until it’s semi dry..?

[@RoseBaby]

The Symphony does great job vacuuming the floors but not the carpet Bissell said this unit can work on carpets as a refresher and light vacuum but not to provide a deep clean like a carpet shampooer machines. All you will need for carpet use is the carpet glider which can be ordered separately from their website. I didn’t get this attachment so I find it hard to move even on area rugs so I just use it on tiles to vacuum and mop but for area rugs I use my Dyson to vacuum them. Symphony or crosswave? Personally I’ve been obsessed with steam mopping and sanitizing my floor that’s why I will go with the Symphony and yes it’s loud just like the crosswave but the floors dry quicker since like you said you’re not putting as much water on them. I just love it! I have a review video on the Symphony kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGmplHSJaJhqa5I. Maybe this can help you too.

[@ChabelaFlips]

@@RoseBaby do you think I’d be able to use the steamer on parquet floors without damaging it too much? I’m more worried about the steam being too hot for the floors since I’ve been using the crosswave for a little over 2 years and no visual damage has been happening as of yet.

[@zoom7105]

Hey I just got Mine a few days ago, and I have a question. The button you use to flush the Vaccum with the water and cleaning solution do you hold it the whole time your vacuuming. It doesn’t really explain it in the manual.

[@gabriellelanham3932]

I just got one today and I am wondering the same thing. Did you ever get an answer to that question? Lol

[@zoom7105]

Gabrielle Neil no I didn’t get an answer

[@RoseBaby]

I apologize for the late response. No, you don’t have to hold the button. You press the button underneath as you move back and forth across the floor so the liquid is dispensed. After that, you can release that dispensing button and go over the parts of the floor you just cleaned, as this will vacuum up some of the water and allow it to dry faster.

[@nicolel9649]

How long do u have to let it charge before u can carry on? I’m just worried I would only get my main level done and would have to wait hours to finish the 20 mins upstairs.

[@RoseBaby]

Awww, I understand your concern but I think to get a maximum run time, you will need to charge it for 4 hours.

[@tweetiebird]

It's lithium so you can't over charge it. Use it and return it to it's charging bay and leave it.

It’s definitely a loud machine but I didn’t notice any weird noise. When the dirty tank is full, the float inside will activate and the motor pitch will change this sound is normal and after you empty the dirty tank it should go back to normal.

BISSELL Crosswave Cordless Max brush is too soft, and after 3yrs. later battery dead... it was waste of money

[@emirumpf9947]

So far so good with this vacuum. kzbin.infoUgkx8ISPQRRAfpAaX4msGjyodObTBnlj4T5g I was a little concerned to find it seems to be all plastic, but the reviews were good, so I'm hoping for the best. Very easy to assemble Recommened, and only attachments I've used so far work well, and are easy to use. Doing a good job on the new carpet in my bedrooms and stairs. Works well on the hardwood on my main floor too. Reasonable weight and cord length. I already knew from an earlier review that it wouldn't fit under furniture, but I can use my Eufy for that, so no problem - the high traffic areas that need a stronger suction was really what I bought this for. If it continues as it's started, it will be a good buy and well worth the money. I have had two Shark Rocket stick vacs in the past that are super easy to use, but the motors just don't last well, even with scrupulous cleaning of the filters. I'm hoping for better with this Bissell.
