+1 (978) 295-7538Bissell BG101 ProShake 12" Commercial Upright Vacuum with Reusable Shakeout Bag
The BG101 ProShake runs an 870-watt motor through a 12-inch cleaning path with a non-stick reusable shakeout bag that eliminates ongoing bag consumable costs. Chrome metal construction, a comfort grip handle, an aluminum roller brush with four bristle strips, and a magnet bar for metal debris capture complete the commercial-grade specification. At 14.5 pounds, it handles guest rooms, offices, and multi-floor cleaning routes without the weight penalty of higher-capacity models.
BG101 ProShake Specs and Commercial Construction
- Motor: 870 watts — commercial suction for embedded dirt in high-traffic carpet
- Cleaning path: 12 inches wide — practical for guest rooms, corridors, and tight office layouts
- Collection: non-stick reusable shakeout bag — empty and reuse, no replacement bag required
- Roller brush: aluminum with four bristle strips, double ball bearings — durable agitation
- Magnet bar: captures staples, clips, and metal debris before motor contact
- Power cord: 50 ft — 100-foot cleaning radius per outlet
- Height adjustment: 6-position — adapts brush contact across carpet pile heights
- Handle: comfort grip — reduces operator hand fatigue in extended shifts
- Motor hood: chrome metal — commercial durability and client-facing appearance
- Motor protection: heat overload shutoff
- Weight: 14.5 lbs
Where the Reusable Shakeout Bag Fits in Commercial Operations
Cleaning contractors working multiple accounts carry their own equipment and do not stock bags per-site. The shakeout bag eliminates the need to carry replacement bags for each machine or account for bag costs in job pricing. Janitorial services with high volume cleaning — where a bag might be emptied after each account — find the reusable format more practical than managing bag inventory. The non-stick coating prevents debris from adhering to bag walls during shakeout. For facilities with fine dust or filtration requirements, the BG101H high-filtration bag provides better particulate containment. For facilities wanting fill-level visibility, the BG101DC bagless cup shows fill level through transparent walls.
BG101 12-Inch Series — Full Lineup Comparison
The BG101 ProShake, BG101H, and BG101DC share the same 870-watt motor, 12-inch cleaning path, aluminum roller brush with four bristle strips, magnet bar, chrome hood, 50-foot cord, and 6-position height adjustment. The ProShake is the lowest consumable cost option with no bags required. The BG101DC adds bagless convenience with visible fill monitoring. The BG101H provides high-filtration bags for air quality requirements at the cost of ongoing bag expense. All three weigh 14.5 lbs and are appropriate for the same facility types — the collection system choice depends on cleaning workflow and filtration requirements.
