The BISSELL Vac & Steam is a multi-functional 2-in-1 vacuum and steam mop that vacuums and steams at the same time, or separately. The electronic one touch fingertip controls in the handle make it easy to switch from vacuum to steam or use both together with a push of a button. Save time by vacuuming debris and steaming hard floors, at the same time, killing 99.9% of germs and bacteria all around the home using just water. Dry-tank technology keeps debris in the dust bin completely dry and away from the steam at all times. The DropIT dirt tank allows you to empty the dirt tank with a push of a button. This makes the cleaning of the machine AFTER cleaning simple and easy. Two vacuum filters - foam and pleated are both washable and trap fine dust and debris to provide clean exhaust air back in to the room.
