Side-by-Side Comparison
| Spec | Bissell CrossWave OmniForce Edge (3930F) | Levoit LVAC-300 |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $329.99 | $229.99 |
| Release Year | 2024 | 2025 |
| Machine Type | Cordless wet-dry hard-floor washer with a separate dry-vacuum mode | Dry cordless stick vacuum, converts to handheld |
| Suction (as published) | Not published by the manufacturer. Bissell quotes '75% more suction than CrossWave X7' and a 25 V battery — a relative claim and an input voltage, neither of which is a suction figure | 90 air watts. Levoit publishes air watts, so it is directly comparable with Dyson's 240 AW rather than a Pa figure |
| Runtime, Eco / Headline (min) | 30 | 60✓ |
| Runtime, Max Power (min) | Not published by the manufacturer | 12 |
| What the Runtime Claim Actually Means | Bissell publishes a single 30-minute figure and states only that it 'varies by mode and usage'. There is no separate figure for Power Vac or Power Mop | Levoit states the attachment for each figure: 60 minutes in Eco with the crevice tool, 40 minutes in Standard with the vacuum head or motorised brush, and 12 minutes in Turbo. The 60-minute headline is the non-powered tool |
| Removable Battery | Not published by the manufacturer — Bissell lists a 25 V rechargeable pack with a 4-hour charge but does not describe it as user-removable | Yes — detachable 3000 mAh pack with three LED cells, charges attached or removed |
| Spare Battery | Not published by the manufacturer | Not published by the manufacturer. Note the LVAC-200 and LVAC-300 packs are not interchangeable |
| Dock / Wall Mount | Charging dock and storage tray included | Wall-mount bracket included and it needs screws, but the vacuum free-stands without it. No dock and no auto-empty |
| Filtration | Bissell publishes no filtration rating for this model and makes no HEPA claim | 5-stage with a HEPA element, Levoit claiming 99.99% of 0.3-micron particles retained. Levoit makes no sealed-whole-machine claim |
| Bin / Tank Capacity | 620 ml clean water tank and 450 ml dirty water tank, plus a separate Easy Empty dirt bin for dry mode | 3.2 cups (about 0.76 L) with a bottom release |
| Weight (lbs) | 10.6 | 6.56✓ |
| Filters, Consumables & Self-Clean | The one-touch self-clean flushes the brush roll with tank water — Bissell does not claim it is heated, and there is no hot-air drying, so the roller is stored damp. Two 8 oz Bissell formulas are in the box and the machine is built around Bissell's own formulas. Replacement brush rolls and filters are stocked by Bissell | Washable metal pre-filters and a washable HEPA element. Levoit publishes neither a replacement schedule nor a filter price |
| Warranty | 24 months | 24 months |
| Colors | Black/Titanium | White/Grey |
Category Scores
Suction Power
The Levoit LVAC-300 leads clearly here, 6.0 against 5.5 — a 0.5-point margin on actual cleaning force at the head, judged on air watts where a maker publishes them and discounted where only Pa or motor watts are quoted. If that is what you are buying for, the Bissell CrossWave OmniForce Edge (3930F) does not close the gap elsewhere.
Sustained Runtime
The Levoit LVAC-300 leads clearly here, 6.0 against 5.0 — a 1.0-point margin on how long the machine really runs on max power with the motorised floor head attached — not the eco-mode, bare-tool figure on the box. If that is what you are buying for, the Bissell CrossWave OmniForce Edge (3930F) does not close the gap elsewhere.
Filtration & Sealing
The Levoit LVAC-300 leads clearly here, 7.0 against 4.0 — a 3.0-point margin on whether the whole machine is sealed or a HEPA element simply sits inside a leaky body, and what the claimed rating is actually measured at. If that is what you are buying for, the Bissell CrossWave OmniForce Edge (3930F) does not close the gap elsewhere.
Handling & Ergonomics
The Levoit LVAC-300 leads clearly here, 8.5 against 7.5 — a 1.0-point margin on weight, balance, whether power is a push-button or a trigger you must hold, and how it stores. If that is what you are buying for, the Bissell CrossWave OmniForce Edge (3930F) does not close the gap elsewhere.
Maintenance & Emptying
The Levoit LVAC-300 leads clearly here, 7.5 against 5.5 — a 2.0-point margin on bin or tank emptying, whether your hand ends up near the dust, self-clean quality and the ongoing cost of filters, bags and detergent. If that is what you are buying for, the Bissell CrossWave OmniForce Edge (3930F) does not close the gap elsewhere.
Battery System
The Levoit LVAC-300 leads clearly here, 7.0 against 4.0 — a 3.0-point margin on removable or sealed, how many packs are included, what a spare costs and whether the pack is shared across a range. If that is what you are buying for, the Bissell CrossWave OmniForce Edge (3930F) does not close the gap elsewhere.
Versatility
The Bissell CrossWave OmniForce Edge (3930F) leads clearly here, 8.0 against 7.0 — a 1.0-point margin on handheld conversion, above-floor tools, carpet capability and wet-mopping ability. If that is what you are buying for, the Levoit LVAC-300 does not close the gap elsewhere.
Value
The Levoit LVAC-300 leads clearly here, 9.0 against 7.5 — a 1.5-point margin on what you actually get for the street price once consumables and missing accessories are counted. If that is what you are buying for, the Bissell CrossWave OmniForce Edge (3930F) does not close the gap elsewhere.

Pros & Cons
Bissell CrossWave OmniForce Edge (3930F)
Pros
- +A genuine dry-vacuum mode with its own dirt bin — most washers make you wet-mop dry crumbs
- +ZeroGap edge cleaning takes the head right up to a baseboard, which the Tineco only manages to about a centimetre
- +Two-tank design keeps dirty water off the floor and both tanks pull straight out on a lever
- +The cheapest way into a cordless wet-dry washer from a major brand
Cons
- −The self-clean flushes with cold tank water and there is no hot-air drying, so the roller sits damp — exactly the smell problem Tineco and Roborock spent money solving
- −30 minutes of runtime with no breakdown by mode, and heavy wet work will not reach it
- −Bissell publishes no suction figure and no filtration rating whatsoever for this machine
- −Built around Bissell's own formulas, and the two 8 oz sample bottles run out within a few tanks
Levoit LVAC-300
Pros
- +Publishes air watts and a three-mode runtime table that names the attachment for each figure — unusually honest at this price
- +Self-standing, so unlike Dyson and Miele you are not obliged to drill a bracket into a wall
- +Detachable battery that charges off the machine, at a price where sealed packs are the norm
- +Around $230 street for 90 AW, a HEPA element and a 2-year warranty
Cons
- −90 air watts is barely a third of the Dyson's 240 — this is a maintenance vacuum, not a deep-carpet one
- −12 minutes in Turbo, and 40 rather than 60 as soon as the powered head goes on
- −A HEPA element in a body Levoit never claims is sealed is not an allergy solution
- −No spare-battery price published, and the LVAC-200 pack will not fit
