BISSELL is thorough. In fact, we have redefined the concept of clean with our family of innovative products. We’ve spent years developing powerful, user-friendly tools with one goal in mind. . . to help improve the ways you take care of your home. From big ugly stains to microscopic irritants... because when BISSELL says clean... WE MEAN CLEAN! In the mid-1800s, Anna and Melville Bissell owned a small crockery shop in Grand Rapids, Michigan. While cleaning up after the day’s work, Anna often became frustrated with the sawdust that was embedded in the carpet. The tiny, stubborn particles clung to the carpet, and trying to sweep them up was becoming a time-consuming nuisance.
Anna presented the problem to Melville, her mechanically inclined husband. Melville designed and constructed a carpet sweeper machine that he hoped would solve the problem once and for all.
His ingenious design was a success, and word of Melville Bissell’s carpet sweeper spread quickly. People soon began asking where they could purchase a sweeper for themselves. The BISSELL Carpet Sweeper was patented in 1876, and in 1883 the first BISSELL manufacturing plant was built in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Following Melville Bissell’s untimely death in 1889, Anna Bissell stepped in and confidently took control of the company, becoming America’s first female corporate CEO. Under Anna’s aggressive and innovative management, BISSELL soon began to look in new directions in product development and to expand their business to include all the continents of the world.
