Which pet hair vacuum do you use?

[anna_66]

We have a Dyson Animal and I think it's awesome and is the best over all vacuum we've ever owned (I have very furry dogs!)

I don't use it much now that we have pergo flooring, I usually just sweep but it does have a bare floor setting that works well too.

I think you'll find quite a few people will endorse the Dyson here at PT. It's pricey, but well worth it!

I love my Dyson.

I have the Bissell Pet Hair and I love it. I paid $119 for it at Walmart. I would love to have a Dyson but I cant justify the cost. To many other things we need that are way more important.

I loved my Oreck but it was an upright with no attachments. I had to get out the small cannister vacuum that came with it so it was double work. I still use it on occasion for quick fixes. But I SWEAR by my Electrolux. It's worth every penny and I was able to take it out on time. The only problem is that the bag is small, but then, again, I have lots of dog hair to contend with.

I have the Bissell pet and so far I love it. I can't believe how much it picks up every time we use it. We had a Hoover that worked real well but I couldn't keep Impeller blades from getting damaged since whatever you picked up went through the blades before going to the filter. With the Bissell everything goes through the filter first.

I have the Hoover Mach3 and it's always done a good job of getting up the dog hair

When we were researching the Dyson I came here to PT and read others thoughts on it. That's another reason we went with it.

And I always use the barefloor setting. I don't sweep anymore. This vacuum is so powerful when you vacuum on hardwood it pulls hair and dirt from under things and you can actually see the stuff being sucked into it. And I love the hose attachment part too. It's so easy and everything is right there on the vacuum. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!

I paid full price for my Dyson Animal and I have no regrets. I LOVE IT.

Man... All this vacuum talk makes me want a Dyson Animal.. I can't believe how many of you all have them and are all so happy with it. Maybe when our's starts to bite the dust... we'll look into one. Now all I have to do is cross my fingers and do some effective persuading.

I originally went with the Oreck because it was so lightweight. I had a Hoover Wind Tunnel before that, and not only didn't it do a good job, but it weighed a ton, and I couldn't handle it after my back surgery. I never had a Kenmore that lasted more than a couple of years, and normally Kenmore products are great. I even talked my "cheapy" brother in to an Oreck - after he said they weren't worth the money.

We have a yellow bissell that comes with the pet paw for furniture. Honda sheds year around horribly and I think it works great!!! Cheap bissells suck but when you put a decent amount of money in, they work good!

I have no carpet, all hardwoods and linoleum.

With 11 cats, I gave up trying, and bought a 6 gal wet vac, Lowe's had them on sale for $24.99 a while back. I use the floor brush from my prior vac, as the work horse brush has no bristles on it and would mar the hardwood.

Oh the suction! It is getting EVERYTHING up, thank goodness. True, I have to fish the catnip mice out of the grub when I empty it, but that is minor. I am very pleased.

It is not as noisy as the old wet/dry vac we had, pleasant surprise!

Dyson Animal here, LOVE it! I really cant afford a $500 vacuum but sucked it up and forked it over, and I never looked back, its awsome!
