Pet Hair Eraser Allergen. I have the CleanView Furguard Max and the SurfaceSense version of it. Theyre both the same but I like it alot and the HEPA filter really does work. I dont sneeze or nothing. Even when it gets dirty like a vacuum does with much use.

If you live in a city with an Ocean State Job Lot, cruise by one and see what they have in stock. Many are refurbished, but does that really matter? See what they have, take a moment to google all the reviews, and likely one will meet your needs. My own is a Bissell Lift Off Pet Hair Something Something i bought refurbished for <$100, in 2017 ish. I just ordered a new collection tank and brush for $60, but i figure ~$13/year for the first 8 years isn't a bad investment.

I have 3 cats and have the Bissel “MultiClean Allergen Lift-Off Pet vacuum cleaner”. It sucks up a lot of cat hair and is still going strong after a few years. Cordless vacuums were never strong enough to pull the hair up off carpet and such. The bottom roller is super easy to access (just need to take off a few screws) to cut off any hair that gets trapped (my long human hair mainly). I do deep clean my vacuum every 2-3 weeks (completely empty and wash the canister, take out the roller and clean off all the hair) and I think that’s key to keeping the vacuum working well for a long time.

Just get a bagged vacuum from BISSELL they have either the standard kind that we all know is kinda annoying to maneuver with the cord but hey it works. They also have one that you can lift with 1 hand and carry around but the hose is a little clunky to use. Either way they SUCK hard. I was cleaning my keyboard and they sucked the keys right off. It’s intense and good for getting all the dirt off of whatever you’re sucking.

I bought the Bissell pet hair/allergy upright and it's been great and very easy to use.

I have hair down to my butt plus I have a longhaired cat, so a good vacuum is a must. I've tried them all. The best one I've found is a Bissell pet hair vacuum with silicone blades instead of a traditional roller brush. However, nothing beats a $25 carpet rake. I use it after vacuuming, and it's incredible how much crud it pulls up from the carpet.

Nope. Had one of the ball ones over a decade ago and ended up replacing it with a Bissell when we moved and the cord wasn’t long enough. $30 Bissell canister did a better job. I’ve since added a Bissell upright pet and a Bissell cordless stick to replace my broom.
