About this product
Quick Summary
The BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser Tool 1604117 combines a broad upholstery-contact surface with a velvet strip that gathers pet hair. On a compatible vacuum, the hose then draws loosened hair through the tool. This accessory is useful for sofas, cushions and other suitable fabric-covered areas that collect fur between regular floor-cleaning sessions.
Unlike a mini turbo brush, this design uses a velvet strip at the cleaning face. Choose it by the replacement part number and the vacuum's full model number. The listing is for one tool; a vacuum and hose are not included.
Compatible Models
BISSELL identifies this accessory for selected upright models, including machines in the 1792, 1793, 2043, 2281 and 2475 families. Listed examples include 1792, 1792P, 1793, 1793C, 2043, 2043C, 2043D, 2043U, 2281, 22814, 2281C, 2281K, 2475 and 2475C. Additional compatible models appear in the manufacturer's parts information.
Read the model number from the machine's identification label before ordering. Keep any letter suffix or extra digits when checking fit. A vacuum's marketing name can span several versions, and a similar-looking connector does not confirm that a part is the correct replacement.

Why the Correct Replacement Matters
The attachment should fit without forcing the connector. If your original tool carries another part number, check whether BISSELL identifies 1604117 as the replacement for your specific machine. Do not modify the neck or add an improvised adapter simply because the tool appears close in size.
Replacing a missing or worn accessory can make the vacuum more useful for furniture cleanup. If the problem is weak suction rather than a damaged attachment, inspect the machine's airflow path and routine maintenance items first. A blocked hose or full dirt container can limit pickup even when the upholstery tool is in good condition.
Using the Velvet Strip
Check the upholstery's care instructions before brushing. Start in a hidden area and use light passes across the surface. Keep the tool flat enough to contact the fabric without pressing hard. Work a manageable section at a time and watch for fabric edges or loose threads that could catch.
The manufacturer's photographs show both manual hair gathering and connected vacuum use. When using the hose, follow the accessory instructions supplied with your vacuum. Keep loose covers steady and avoid pulling the machine by the hose. If the fabric puckers into the tool, stop and reassess the technique and surface suitability.
Do not use this tool for wet extraction or as a grooming brush on an animal. Delicate trim, fringe and fabrics that prohibit brushing need a different cleaning method. The tool is intended for suitable household surfaces.
Care and Replacement Guidance
Turn off and unplug the vacuum before attaching, removing or clearing the tool. Remove collected hair gently from the cleaning face. Avoid scraping the velvet strip with a sharp object, which could damage its surface. Check the airway for visible obstruction before reconnecting.
Follow BISSELL's care guidance for the accessory. Do not soak the tool, apply aggressive solvents or attempt to glue a loose strip back into place without appropriate instructions. Store it where its contact face will stay clean and the connector will not be crushed under heavier items.
If the housing is cracked or the connector no longer seats securely, stop using it and check the replacement options. A damaged connection can make the tool difficult to control and may reduce useful airflow at the cleaning face.
