ConBroMitch2247IMO none of these combo machines are worth buying. They’re all junk destined for the landfill aster a couple years if you’re lucky. Id grab a dry vacuum (Kenmore 600 series pop and go) and a good old mop and bucket.
FlaydengI just bought the kenmore pop n go bagged canister, they have a 25% off coupon. Came out to like $260. Heard nothing but good things and excited to try it out
gp236My recommendation will come at a surprise for you because it is not a Shark, Dyson, Sebo, Miele, Riccar or Kirby. For people who have pets and want a long lasting vacuum that can handle pet hair well, my best recommendation is to look at Kenmore. In my own wrong opinion, Kenmore is a very overlooked brand because everyone wants a Shark, Sebo, Miele, Riccar, or something else ungodly expensive. My parents have had a Kenmore for years and it hasn't shown any signs of stopping. I use a Kenmore to clean a hair salon, so I know they can hold their own with various lengths and magnitude of hair.

jcc2500I have a Kenmore canister vacuum. It is an excellent vacuum, maybe the best one I've had. But I elected to get the version that has the pop and go storage and would say don't get that. Although the vacuum works great, that pop and go storage pops open on its own all the time as I bump a corner or piece of furniture. It's mildly infuriating after the 34th time. But I am still very pleased with the purchase overall. You might be able to find a better deal on Amazon or Walmart but don't forget to check out the Kenmore floor Care site where they sell direct. They are offering 20% off as a Black Friday deal right now.
JimDandyGeorgeConsider the Kenmore Pet friendly pop-n-go bag Pet Canister Vacuum Cleaner Model #BC4026. This is a corded, bagged canister that comes with a powered brush head with detangling technology for dealing effectively with pet (and people) hair. It has HEPA filtration, so it should be good for people (like you) with allergies. Not as fancy or expensive as Sebo, but I think this would the job for you. For quick pickups, consider getting a cordless stick vacuum like a Bissell PowerClean FurGuard in addition to a canister. This has effective detangling and HEPA filtration, I gifted one of these to a friend who has a Rotweiler and she really likes it.
TurquoisySunflowerKenmore Pop-n-go 600 series. Reviews speak for themselves. My last Kenmore is still going 15 years later.
WontRememberThisIDI made the switch from a bagless upright Dyson and a stick Dyson to a Kenmore Pop N Go canister, based on the advice of this sub. I could not be happier. I have three shed monster Australian Shepherds that have killed several Dysons over the years. I am THRILLED not to have to stop and empty the Dyson every 5 minutes. Changing the bag on the Kenmore is a lot less messy than emptying the bin on the Dyson. I wish I bought a canister 20 years ago. The canister is much easier to use on the stairs. It works miracles on cleaning my blinds, which the Dyson was absolutely useless for. It actually gets my carpets clean, which the Dyson failed to do after about a year. Also, the Kenmore is a hell of a lot quieter than my Dyson.
CIemsonA lot of people on here work in vacuum shops, either managing them or as technicians repairing vacuums. We are all telling you that Shark / Dyson are garbage and you have to spend a fair amount to get a decent vacuum that will last you 4+ years. If you have all hardwood floors or some very low pile carpet, get a SEBO K2/E2, or a Miele suction only model. If you have carpet that is fairly high pile, you are kind of forced to spend a decent amount for a E3 or K3 type vacuum. If you don’t want to spend that much, Kenmore makes some halfway decent vacuums like the Intuition or Pop N Go that are fairly affordable with an electric head. I don’t know why most of your replies to people are you arguing with people whose literal job it is to work with vacuums about what is good and what’s not.
