Korean Bissells

[director12]

Can anyone list some Bissell products from Korea? Because the one Korean Bissell I know is the Digipro.

They aren't really Bissell,

They are made by Samsung Electronics
You are looking at the Digipro and the Lift-Off series of uprights. Pretty good quality in my opinion and here they were priced (the Lift Off Uprights) for around $500-$700 and sold pretty well. Because Bissell has a more limited range in Australia they are a little more selective of the product, and therefore have a pretty good reputation.

Healthy Home Upright $599
Lift-Off Steam Mop $349
Lift-Off Deep Cleaner $899
ReadyClean $349
Little Green $199
And they sell well at these prices

Samsung and Bissell?

 

[sebo_fan]

Yes, very much so. Some Samsung uprights are rebadged Bissell models in the UK too.

How interesting. Are they better quality than Chinese models? My Powerforce is made in China.

 

[sebo_fan]

Im not too sure but I've used old  Powerforce machines and I think in some cases they're better made than some Dyson models. But that's my opinion. Only aspect I don't like about the Powerforce is the noise and the silly grab handle on the hose; either it's me or others who are grabbing too roughly as the handle usually breaks off early.
