The BEST pet hair vacuum for your money!

by Swellguy , Jun. 26, 2008

Comments:
This is a very easy to use vacuum. It is quiet and even though it is pretty heavy, when in use, it feels very balanced and very easy to push around. There is no doubt in my mind that this is the best vacuum for pet hair and general debris. I would recommend it to anyone with a pet!

QuickTake:

Pros: Always leaves the carpet and tile free of debris and especially pet hair!

Cons: It picks up so much dirt and hair that you have to dump the container frequently (not very difficult)

Recommended: No
