I’ve heard the #rightToRepair law is not well defined, so i could be wrong about #Bissell’s non-compliance. I’ve only seen cliff’s notes of the law. Guess I need to do some digging unless someone has a hard and fast answer.

@jerry I think #Bissell is breaking the EU #rightToRepair law. My appliance came with minimal literature. E.g. no instructions written in text, just pics, one of which I don’t understand. These paper manuals reference global.bissell·com, no physical address, thus inherently excluding all offline consumers from service.

I’m partially online. When I visit the site, it blocks me (tor). Even when I circumvent the block, 2 of 3 manuals are dead links.

@joel @jerry I bought a #Bissell recently, under protest. Insurance company covered it; I just had to buy /something/ to clean a mess. It’s a duopoly in my town between Bissell & another. Bissell’s website is Cloudflared, so I scratched them off. Then the maker of the other outright proactively blocks Tor, so I wrote them off & opted for a Bissell.

As a cat parent I have to say that my best investment was a #BissellCrosswave. Between Abbey’s marshmallow paw prints & Pepsi’s stressed out tummy this past week, the only thing keeping my sanity together is the #Crosswave 🥴 #Bissell #NotAnAdJustAnExhaustedCatMom

Out looking for #Bissell products that no one carries. While looking for substitutions, my #PetPeeve showed it's ugly head again.

Never mind the product. Do you ever get annoyed at flip-flopping between Imperial and Metric measure? (like, in 🇨🇦 eh!)

60 ounce; 60 ounce; 946 ml
(That's 32 oz in two products)

I get this in Grocery Produce too, VEG by the Kilo, weight listed in pounds.
