Overview
The Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Rewind is BISSELL’s pet-focused upright, model 27909 in both the US and Canada. It is corded, so there is no battery to fade halfway through a whole-house clean, and it is built around a tangle-free brush roll designed to stop long hair wrapping around the roller.
BISSELL rounds it out with practical touches: headlights on the floor head, an automatic cord rewind on a 27-foot cord, and a set of tools including the Pet TurboEraser for stairs and furniture, an LED crevice tool, a 2-in-1 pet dusting brush and a pet hair corner tool. Its filtration is BISSELL’s SmartSeal Allergen System, which is a sealed system rather than a true HEPA filter. BISSELL also says purchases support the BISSELL Pet Foundation.
The tool kit is where it earns its pet label. The Pet TurboEraser has its own spinning brush for carpeted stairs, pet beds and upholstery, the corner tool reaches into edges where hair collects, and the LED crevice tool lights up gaps under furniture. The 0.75 L bin is on the small side for an upright, so in a heavy-shedding home you will empty it more than once on a full clean. Because it is the same model number in both countries, replacement filters and belts are easy to match on either Amazon store.

Who it suits (and who should skip it)
It suits family homes with plenty of carpet and at least one shedding pet, where a corded upright that does every room in one go is more useful than a light stick vacuum. The turbo tool makes it practical for carpeted stairs and pet beds too.
Skip it if you live in a small apartment with mostly hard floors, or if carrying a 16.5 lb upright up stairs is a problem. Allergy-sensitive households may prefer true HEPA filtration, or pairing it with an air purifier like the Coway Airmega AP-1512HH.
Costs to know about
No bags. Plan on replacing filters and the belt occasionally, as with most uprights. Check the brush roll and belt if pickup drops off, since long hair and debris build up over time.
How it compares
Next to the Dyson V15 Detect, the BISSELL is heavier and tethered to the wall, but it never runs out of battery and costs far less. The Dyson is better for quick daily touch-ups on mixed floors. For pet accidents on carpet that a vacuum cannot fix, see our guide to removing pet stains naturally.

Frequently asked questions
Is the BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Rewind good for carpet?
It is designed with carpet in mind. The tangle-free brush roll handles long pet hair, and corded power means no battery fade. The Pet TurboEraser tool helps on carpeted stairs and upholstery. It is less nimble on hard floors than a stick vacuum.
Does the BISSELL 27909 have a HEPA filter?
No. It uses BISSELL's SmartSeal Allergen System, a sealed system rather than a true HEPA filter. For dander-sensitive households, consider pairing it with a HEPA air purifier, washing pet bedding often and emptying the bin outdoors.
What warranty does the BISSELL 27909 have?
BISSELL Canada lists a 5-year limited warranty on the 27909. The US product page we read did not state the term, so US buyers should check the warranty card in the box or BISSELL's US support site.
How heavy is the BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Rewind?
BISSELL lists it at about 16.5 lb. That is typical for a full-size upright but noticeably heavier than a cordless stick, which matters if you carry it between floors often. The 27-foot cord helps by letting you clean stairs from one outlet.
