What is the Best Vacuum for Picking up Pet Hair?

We love our pets, but we don’t love the messes they create. Pets add a lot to a home but they add a lot of cleanup from chewed up, ripped up, unstuffed animals to tracked in mud, dirt, and bodily fluids to little accidents. Then, of course, there is all that fluffy fur we love to stroke until it comes out in clumps and rolls across the floor like furry tumbleweeds. So, what’s a dog mommy to do? Pick up one of these best pet hair removal vacuums in 2018 and keep petting that pooch or pussycat. If you have pets, it is best to vacuum daily if at all possible, especially in high-furred areas.

The Top Four

1. Shark Rotator TruePet Powered Lift-Away NV752

Not only does the TruePet attack and conquer pet hair, it also does an outstanding job on everyday dirt due, in part, to its three-part design featuring an upright blueprint with a brush roller pod that lifts off for hand-held use and a caddy for the canister. It also comes with plenty of accessories and easily gets underneath furniture. Those who suffer from allergies will appreciate the complete seal technology keeping allergens out of the air and in the canister. LED lights also make it easy to see underneath furniture or in low light situations.

2. New Miele Complete C3 Cat & Dog Canister Vacuum

For those who prefer a canister vac, the Miele Complete, although on the higher end as far as price is concerned, is definitely a premium machine that you can expect to last for at least the next 10 to 15 years which can even out the cost of it and other machines that may need replacing more often. It is also one of the cleanest on the market with its sealed system and charcoal air filters to remove odors from the air so it removes both pet hair and odors; although, at 20 pounds it is definitely one of the heavier vacuums.

Bags and filters are easy to find, it comes with the most common tools, and it features more speed and suction control than most with six levels to choose from and a wand that adjusts to several different lengths for even more convenience.

3. Dyson V8 Animal Cordless Vacuum

Dyson is a very well-known and heavily advertised brand and many swear by it but like any other vacuum, it has its pros and cons. Two of the caveats with not just this Dyson but any Dyson is the large price tag and you must take care as to where you purchase your Dyson because if you buy through a site not approved by Dyson, they will not honor the warranty, likewise if you purchase a used Dyson, the warranty will not transfer no matter the age of the machine.

The hefty price tag is, for the most part, due to the super-duty battery which can last on high power using a motorized tool for 20 minutes, an up to 40 minutes at regular speed. This may not seem like much; however, other vacuums only last up to 15 minutes on standard power and may only get as few as 5 minutes when using other motorized tools. Dyson is also renowned for their HEPA system and this cordless Dyson works just as well as or better than some of Dyson’s uprights. So, in the end, the price tag may be worth it.

4. Bissell Pet Hair Eraser 1650A Vacuum

Bissell is another celebrated name in the vacuum game, especially when it comes to picking up pet hair; not only do they claim to be the best in removing pet hair, their products actually live up to that claim. The Pet Hair Eraser is just one of Bissell’s pet hair removal vacuums, but easily is the best among their own, but also among other brand’s pet vacuums.

One of the favorite features among owners is the specially designed roller that does not collect hair in the bristles, a leading cause of overheating and belt failure in all vacuums. It also features the extremely effective compact roller Pet Turbo Eraser attachment which is ideal for use on upholstery and in hard to reach places. This is another brand that also delivers the one-two punch of odor and hair removal; the SmartSeal Allergen System is the best at delivering odor and allergen-free air and, coupled with its Febreze filter, leaves your home smelling good as well as looking good. Win-win!
