For anyone else shopping for one of these for non-wood hardfloors (like ceramic), you might want to reconsider the Bissell Crosswave. If you look at the 1 or 2 star reviews, apparently it leaves a lot of water on the floor that takes long to dry and leaves streaks. This probably isn't such a big issue on wood floors as it probably absorbs part of the water and is harder to leave water streaks on.
It's basically packing the same motor and features of the more expensive Tineco iFloor S3 (minus silly "smart" features like app control and a screen) that goes for $400 USD. And compared to the Crosswave:
it has a more powerful motor and higher suction power, cleaning deepered & hard stuck-on spills easier than on the crosswave
it leaves far less water on floors (due to the higher suction)
tineco's cleaning solution requires only a capful per clean water tank compared to the large amount required by Bissell's cleaning solution. Making it more affordable and easier to run.
it has a higher profile and better roller design that can pick up larger messes more cleanly without requiring manually cleaning the bottom of the machine by hand
due to the raised design and more powerful motor, it has a self-cleaning cycle that works better than the crosswave's
I found this out by looking extensively through all the Amazon reviews and questions on both model referring to their competitors, and watching all of VacuumWars reviews of all Bissell Crossswave (Basic, Pro, Max) and Tineco Models as well as his comparisons. Also notable, this the only Wet/Dry vacuum cleaner recommended by VacuumWars after reviewing all other models, you can watch his video below to understand why: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lE1_7o1mkl8
It's a little bit more expensive, sure, but it seems like the more convenient of all models. I finally pulled the trigger after hours of wet/dry vacuum comparisons online and I couldn't be happier.
I have this and have somewhat mixed feelings about it. It definitely works and works well. For those complaining about it leaving too much water they aren't using it right. It will leak out more water once the bin is full but as long as you empty it it will suck up most of the water leaving a mostly dry floor. So it works well and my floors feel nice and clean. It doesn't get rid of really stuck on gummy spots as well as a steam cleaner. The downside is it's not nearly as convenient as I thought it would be. I thought it would be useful for quick cleanups. But it takes just about as much prep and more importantly clean up then a mop and bucket. You have to disassemble the machine and make sure all the pieces air out otherwise I see it getting moldy really quick. It's also really really loud. So while it works and works really well there are definitely downsides in convenience that I didn't expect.
I think it was a price mistake with Amazon. Even the "higher" models were showing $112. I hope they don't cancel my order but I doubt they will. Not Amazon's style.

Thanks for this, I ordered it from Costco a few days ago for $230 (I'll pay the $5 for Costco convenience and warranty extension) can't wait to use before and after the holiday.

I have the max, a cordless version of this. As the user said above, this isn't a convenient and quick vacuum. It takes a lot of prep work after the fact to get it ready for the next use. I also had one stop working for no reason shortly after I got it.
Bissell support is the best though. The app took no time for them to send a whole new unit. I've also emailed the CEO about this machine, mostly as a joke, and he responded back personally and forwarded my suggestions to the dev team.

Last I checked, the Crosswave leaves more water on the floor compared to the Tineco even if you "use it right". This was confirmed by several of the comparisons between Crosswave and Tineco models on the VacuumWars channel which I highly recommend anyone a watch, the guy is incredibly in-depth and objective in all his reviews. https://www.youtube.com/channel/U...Lwi9yKCtew
Fully agree with your conclusion this isn't for "quick messy cleanups". VacuumWars reached that conclusion as well that these devices are mainly massive lifesavers for folks that have primarily hardfloors and will use these for routine cleaning. In which case the self-cleaning cycle is more than enough, reducing maintenance to a minimum.
If you are planning to use this just to replace standard routine vacuum + mopping, then yeah, it's massively convenient and a huge time saver.
Tineco seems to market heavily on slickdeals but the product is a cheap chinese copy of legitimate others. Disappointing for such high prices. Beware of the shills on here

Who's gonna tell him? 😂 Dude, my Bissell Pet Eraser Pro Hand Vac I literally just bought a month ago is made in china[imgur.com]. Maybe don't speak of things you don't know?
Also, FYI, the reason you see Tineco recommended everywhere (Slickdeals, Amazon, YouTube channels) is because at least at the moment, they are objectively making better, higher quality models than Bissell. And newsflash, not everyone gives a damn the country of origin of their products as long as it's high quality and has great value for the buck.
If anything, the only one looking like shilling for someone is you for Bissell, given you have provided zero hard evidence behind your claim that "Tineco are cheap chinese copy of legitimate others".
Edit: I can totally agree with non-US based companies sometimes having worse customer support. However, nothing about any of Tineco's thousands of reviews points out to poor customer support, if anything, they seem to be following Anker's strategy of entering a new market with strong customer support. If anything, it frustrates me a little that the loudest people against non-US brands usually have 90% of their products made in China, often even in the same factories and quality standards (sometimes even sharing parts). So unless you're defending a brand that exclusively manufactures in the US, it just strikes me a hypocritical advice.

Maybe I got a good copy but this leaves the floors quite dry when used properly. Like if you're not careful it can leave a bit of a puddle when you're done and put it back. And like I said when the bin is full, but that's not usually a big deal as you just suck it back up when you dump the waste water. My sealed tile floors usually dry within 5 minutes. I've seen the vacuum wars channel and agree with most of his stuff. But he oftentimes selectively leaves certain tests out of certain products which is strange to me. And he receives products from companies for review. At least he used to.
Another thing to watch out for that might not be unique to this Bissell is where to dump the waste water. I have a lawn I just go out and dump it but if you're like my house the dump water is full of hair and other stuff you might not want to clog a drain with and you can't dump it in the trash like a vacuum. Just something to consider.

Lol who's talking about country of origin? Tineco is a Chinese company copying designs from other non-chinese companies. I don't mind but im saying the quality is not there and therefore no value over established brands. Enjoy your Tineco but dont be disappointed if youre stuck holding the bag

If I may, I'd recommend the Tineco iFloor 3 on Amazon right now for $225 USD:
