GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., May 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- It's time to throw out the broom, dustpan, mop and bucket and streamline the cleaning routine with the new BISSELL CrossWave Pet Pro. Not only does CrossWave Pet Pro vacuum and wash floors at the same time, it also seamlessly switches between cleaning sealed hard floors and area rugs. This latest innovation from BISSELL is designed specifically for homes with pets and includes features that make staying on top of pet messes no chore at all.

Pet hair, one of the most challenging pet messes to manage, is no match for the tangle-free brush roll that can handle hair up to eight inches long. For other messes like cat litter or food and water dish spills, CrossWave Pet Pro sucks the debris right up while the cleaning solution simultaneously and gently washes the floor. And because CrossWave Pet Pro has a two-tank system, the cleaning solution and dirty water never mix for a fresh, clean pass everytime—a feature the classic mop and bucket doesn't offer.

"Pets are part of the family. We know, because they're part of our families, too," said Carolyn Pearson, Product Manager at BISSELL. "We also know that pets make messes that can add time to your daily routine and sometimes require multiple tools to clean up after—CrossWave Pet Pro eliminates that. It is just one of many BISSELL pet cleaning products we've introduced so you can love your pet without worrying about the mess."

Key features of CrossWave Pet Pro include:

Multi-Surface Pet Brush Roll minimizes pesky hair wrap, tackling hair up to eight inches long.
Smart Touch Controls make switching between cleaning hard floors and area rugs seamless.
Two-tank system separates fresh water/formula mix from dirty water and a strainer in the dirty tank traps pet hair for easy emptying.
Multi-Surface Pet with Febreze^® Freshness Formula is Earth-friendly and safe for pets and kids, containing no heavy metals, phosphates or dyes. This concentrated formula has the power to remove tracked-in dirt, mud and more.

As part of its commitment to pets, for each CrossWave Pet Pro purchased, and then activated on www.bissell.com, BISSELL will donate $10 to BISSELL Pet Foundation to help find every pet a forever home. Founded by Cathy Bissell, BISSELL Pet Foundation provides much-needed financial assistance to animal welfare organizations to give homeless pets the second chance they deserve by finding every pet a loving home.
