Two tanks keep clean and dirty water separate to ensure you are always cleaning your floors with a fresh mix of water and formula. You can absolutely use the bissell crosswave as just a vacuum. It works well to clean messes on hard or soft surfaces by vacuuming and mopping, but it can be used as just a vacuum. The irobot vacuum cleaner Max isn’t designed for use on high-pile carpet.
The crosswave is much more expensive with many more features but essentially does the same thing as the pet pro model. To use this feature all you have to do is make sure there is enough solution in the tank. If not, fill up the tank with warm water to the self-cleaning line. To make sure this vacuum functions the right way every time, cleaning it out is essential every time you use it.
If you run it within an enclosed room, people nearby aren’t likely to be disturbed. This will run for about 40 seconds and shut off when it’s done. The dirty water tank icon will flash to remind you to empty the tank.
They’re also pretty similar in terms of dimensions and overall weight. That said, the corded Pet Pro can run indefinitely but at the cost of a limited range. Its brushroll motor is stronger than its cordless alternative, so you can use this vacuum to clean carpeted floors. However, the Cordless Max can be used to easily clean faraway rooms with minimal difficulty. It also features a self-cleaning function that slightly reduces hands-on maintenance requirements.
With the touch of a button, you can seamlessly switch from cleaning hard floors to vacuuming and refreshing your area rugs, all with one machine. A powerful 36V Li-Ion battery ensures you get constant performance throughout the entire cleaning process while enjoying cordless freedom. The shark cordless Max is a passable option for cleaning staircases. It feels lightweight in your hand, while its cordless design ensures you won’t trip over a power cord.
Its mopping function is also quite effective in dealing with dried-on dirt and debris. The BISSELL CrossWave Cordless Max and Hoover ONEPWR Evolve Pet share an upright configuration, but they’re for different uses. The BISSELL is a hybrid vacuum/mop and can deal with stains and liquid spills with minimal difficulty. It performs better on bare floors than the Hoover, and its fluffy brushroll is better suited to drawing debris up from cracks and crevices. The Hoover is a more conventional cordless upright that you can easily use on carpeted surfaces.
Like the corded model, swapping between the ‘Hard Floor’ and ‘Area Rug’ modes doesn’t impact suction performance, as these settings don’t alter brushroll height or motor output.

Ideal for regular, routine cleaning as well as those unexpected messes that happen in an active family home. 25 minutes of run time enables you to simultaneously vacuum, wash and dry multiple rooms and floor types in the average sized house. The BISSELL CrossWave Cordless Max performs superbly on bare floors.
The BISSELL CrossWave Cordless Max feels decently well-built. It’s similar to the BISSELL CrossWave Pet Pro in terms of overall build quality, with a body made mainly from hard plastic and an aluminum wand. The floorhead release hinge unlocks with very little effort, making it hard to roll the vacuum around when it’s positioned completely upright.
You’ll likely find it easier to move the vacuum from place to place by using the grab handle, which has a rubberized surface to give you a more secure grip. Most of its controls are within easy reach, with its surface mode switch on top of the handle and a detergent trigger just underneath it. The Bissell crosswave pro max has many more high end features with its cordless design. The pet pro is not cordless but it does have a larger roller at 12in covering a bit more of a large area at a time. Over 25 minutes of runtime to vacuum and wash your hard floors and freshen your area rugs. The BISSELL CrossWave Cordless Max does an okay job of handling debris in cracks.
It leaves the surface slightly damp but has no trouble clearing the water as a whole. While it has a less powerful motor than the corded BISSELL CrossWave Pet Pro, that’s somewhat balanced out by its fluffier brushroll, which does a better job absorbing liquids. It’s considerably quieter than the BISSELL CrossWave Pet Pro, presumably thanks to its smaller, less powerful suction motor.
