ive had my Dyson animal 2 for years and i love it, it cleans well and fits into tight spots, i have a cat so i use it often. It was worth the price imo
Check Facebook marketplace. I was in the same boat 2 years ago and got a Dyson Animal Ball 2 for 25 bucks. Still works amazing to this day
I also have a SEBO dart after having a Dyson Animal 2 and while the carpet cleaning was comparable, the hard floors I’ve found do not get nearly as clean and for that price point I’m quite peeved. It could be user error, but I’ve tried it on the lowest height setting with the beater on and off and I have to go areas like 3 times to get all the small debris (mainly cat litter that gets kicked everywhere).
Tried cordless, just not powerful enough with 2 labradors. After reading reviews online went with the Dyson Animal 2, best vacuum I've ever used, incredible suction power, easy to use and empty.
I have the Dyson Ball Animal 2 I think, and we have 2 cats and shag carpets. It's great, every time we vacuum we get a full tank of dander and fur pretty much. I had to get a replacement part after 2 years and their customer service was good too. Their wand attachments are annoying though the tube is not easy to extend if you plan on using that a lot.
3 of us have med to long hair and it’s everywhere. I use a small dust buster for the bathroom for fast easy pickups. We have a Dyson animal ball 2 and the bottom can be removed to access the part that spins and catches all of the hair (there’s A LOT of hair when vaccuming). I use a little sewing thread cutter (seam ripper) and run it along the length of the cylinder and cut all of the hair, remove and throw away. Works like a charm. Make sure your vacuum is unplugged just in case.
I don't have animals anymore but I have a Dyson ball animal 2. I hate it because I can't use it to vacuum my car. The accordion hose is so tight I can't stretch it to even use it for longer than 2 minutes. I don't have that kind of muscle. It's exhausting to use. Can't use it for anything other than the floor so it's useless on the couch. That's something you need to consider if the pets are allowed in the furniture.
Yeah, I was really disappointed because part of the reason I bought it was to clean my car and my couch. I'm old but I'm not weak. My husband has trouble with it too and he works a physical job.
Love my Dyson! I’ve owned 3 (1 upright Aninal from 2004, still ran when I donated it last year and only ever needed one belt changed) and 2 cordless sticks. No problems with any of them. The first Dyson I bought replaced a lemon Hoover that cost me as much as the Dyson. I’d never go back.
