I have a two dogs and two cats, and the amount of pet hair I have is overwhelming to clean. I currently have a Dyson stick vacuum which I love, but it doesn’t cut it for this.

I am looking for a vacuum that can handle a lot of pet hair, a vacuum that a professional cleaner would use for this purpose. I am willing to pay top dollar for a good reliable and effective brand

Budget: no limit

Floor type: carpet and hardwood

Approx. square footage: 2200; half carpet half hardwood

We desperately need a new vacuum. We have three indoor dogs (two Labs and a Shih Tzu) and ALL hardwood floors. Our home is 2,000 square feet. We pride ourselves on having a very clean home — our RoboRock runs every night, and we deep clean (sweep, vacuum, mop, dust — the whole 9 yards) every Friday. Well, long story short, I am HIGHLY disappointed in the Bissell. We sold a rug that had been used in our home for less than 6 months and the buyer said they had two canisters of dirt and pet hair come out of the rug when they got home. I’m embarrassed more than anything! We keep a clean home and vacuum very regularly, so I’m mortified that it was so dirty. We are in the market for a new vacuum that is:

• corded

• can seamlessly go from hard floors to rugs

• picks up dirt and dog hair

• doesn’t tangle dog and human hair

• preferably less than $350, but willing to go higher if we need.

TIA!

I have my first golden and he is amazing. The literal only issue is that my little man sheds so much hair. I brush him once a day but after 24 hours the floors are already covered in his white hair.

Currently I use an older Dyson vacuum and it works okay but it’s pretty big and clunky.

Any other good reliable brands people could recommend?
