I have this one and honestly it’s insanely good. https://www.betta.com.au/miele-blizzard-cx1-cat-dog-bagless-vacuum-cleaner-autumn-red-1100w-706446?gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21755795433&gclid=Cj0KCQjwxL7GBhDXARIsAGOcmIOf7cyQztqDPH6rnHsU6eqtWSCqvJ-kqpRSh1pOwGep094GYuaGNuAaAny0EALw_wcB

Definitely check out the Miele brand which others have suggested. Soooooooo easy to use and mine has a dedicated furniture cleaning tool included, so I do my couch, bed base and the 2 cat trees.

The one I linked also is bagless, although it is corded. I’m sure they have a couple of options. I also used Afterpay to pay in instalments, which just made it nicer hahaha.

This is the one. It's fantastic, and has lasted us over a decade

Yeah, my Blizzard CX1 Cat & Dog is amazing. Dealt with my husky of a girlfriend without fear or trepidation. I love it.

Hahahahaha. Yeah - this. Though I would definitely not say any of it was bad. It's just that hair past her ass was not vacuum friendly, but the CX1 handled it like a champ.

My first "adult" purchase was a Miele Blizzard CX1 Homecare. It was ~$1,000 USD about 8 years ago. I used to think Dyson was the king of vacuums, but Miele is on a different level.

I have a Meile cat and dog hepa vacuum. More pricey than most but I’ve had it about six years now and it runs just as well today. Worth it.

2 kid household with an australian shepherd here 👋🏽 We have the Miele C1 cats and dogs without bag and we are very happy. I like that you can take out the canister and filter parts to clean. The only downside is that you cant replace the HEPA filter… which might be a huge downside. We’ve had the vacuum cleaner for 4 years and works perfectly, doesnt stink like others did, and has held up to all the dirt and hair the dog brings. Nevertheless, we use it only to do the deep cleaning (2/month). We got a robot vacuum that does the daily or bi-daily vacuuming on hardwood floors (Dreame X40). And we dont have rugs because of the dog. So cant really talk about that part! Edit: the vacuum cleaner came with a normal and a rotating vacuum head that seems to be for carpets. Maybe a good thing? Havent tested it so cant say if it is efficient or not…

I had a miele because my parents had one of over 20 years. Mine (blizzard cx1) however barely made it to 5. Had to disassemble and clean the head so often, then had to buy a replacement one. The plastic bit on the handle broke off. The engine and suction power is great, the hardware is inferior. It was one of the most disappointing purchases of my life.

I used to have the miele cx1 and while it is absolutely fantastic, the plastic parts are a let down. Now we have shark navigator and while bulky, it is incredible. So much suction power, big canister, lightweight and easy to manoeuvre.
