The Bissell DigiPro hasn't been covered by Consumer Reports, but it is included in editorial reviews at About.com and Consumer Guide. Unfortunately, neither source seems to have tested the DigiPro before rating it. User reviews are more helpful; Amazon.com has the best coverage, but Epinions has a few entries as well.
The Bissell DigiPro canister vacuum makes it to the recommended list in two semi-professional reviews, but it gets lukewarm feedback from users. Feature-wise, owners say the DigiPro isn't bad -- it has a retractable cord and on-board attachments -- but it loses points for durability and suction. The lower-priced Hoover WindTunnel Bagless S3765-040 (*est. $250) hits the price/performance sweet spot, according to reviewers, with good test results on both carpet and bare floor.

4. About.com
About.com Stay-at-Home Parents guide Barbara Whiting includes the Bissell DigiPro in her short list of favorite canister vacuums. The Bissell comes in sixth, behind models from Hoover, Eureka, Miele, Sanyo and Dirt Devil. The write-up is only a couple of sentences long, and ratings aren't backed by testing. (Note: ConsumerSearch and About.com are owned by the same parent company but are not affiliated editorially.)
