I would recommend [this Hoover](https://a.co/d/7OfjMwT) because it has a sealed system and lifetime belt. The cost of hepa bags will be pretty equal, if not less than what it costs for filters on the Sharks.
I own a cleaning business and we use ProTeam backpack vacuum & Hoover hushtone upright. Both work great and can withstand long days and abuse. Hoover is a bit heavy but it works great
I disagree. At least in the US, they are tiny and the plastic is so flimsy it's bound to break. And this was their $1k pet model. I've been very happy with my Hoover Hushtone.
Hoover HushTone. It’s far less expensive than a Sebo (around $500) and it still does wonders. I use it for carpet and wood flooring. I upgraded from a Bissell to that about a year ago after lurking this sub for a while and I couldn’t be happier with the decision.
The Hoover Hushtone has a quiet mode for those 2am vacuuming sessions. It’s 69 decibels, so the same volume as a regular conversation or a washing machine. The Miele C3 is also fairly quiet, but I personally hated having a canister when I lived in an apartment. They can be difficult to maneuver in tight spaces.
Aside from a central vacuum, the Hoover Hushtone is not very loud. They’re often used to clean hospital wards for this reason. They have a regular and a quiet setting.
I have the Hoover Hushtone bagged commercial vacuum and it works so good. Changing the bags is really easy and much less messy than emptying the canister. I wish it came with a pet hair attachment for the hose but otherwise it's really good
For a second there I thought you meant the dog was the best vacuum. 🤣 I had a 20+ year old commercial grade Hoover and that thing was great for fur in carpets. We also have a small (handheld with attachments) Shark that does a good job, but we left the heavy stuff to the Hoover. I think Bissel makes one designed for pet hair (and not hugely expensive like a Dyson). I have a Bissel carpet shampooer which does a great job.
