I have 2 white labs. Gray flooring. I have white tumble hairs constantly. I bought a shark cordless for daily sweeping. I have a Ricar regular vacuum l use once a week because those bags are expensive. Don’t ever buy a sweeper that has a disposable bag especially if you have pets.
I have white leather l can just wipe down or blow the hair off. Sweeping is a never ending battle with pets. You have a few. Comes with the territory.
I can sweep and turn around and l see hair again. Sweeping daily possibly twice a day if you really want to stay on top of it.
They are ok , nice light vac, my wife had one when we met, now she has me bring home riccar lightweight, super power, I see a ton in my store now since the old Oreck stores went bankrupt
In my opinion, a bagged vacuum is necessary if you’re taking it to different houses. I really like the Riccar Supralite for carpets. For hard floors, edges and upholstery I use the Hoover portapower.
I find the sharks difficult to work with, they fall over when using the attachments, they’re impossible to get clean between houses and harbor odors.
Sounds like most of your surfaces are hardwood vs carpet. If the carpet is low pile, you might be able to get a suction-only machine with a turbo floor tool. I recommend limiting your search to bagged models, none of the bagless models will provide the HEPA filtration you need. Are you in or near a city that has a vacuum dealer? If yes, they will assess your needs and work with you (discounts, demonstrations, etc.), its possible to get an entry level upright or canister in your budget and HEPA needs (Riccar Superlite, Miele C1). Most dealers have used models they refurbished at deep discounts from new/MSRP and have HEPA technology. Riccar, Filter Queen, Rainbow, Kirby, Sebo, Miele U1 and many others will meet your budget as a refurbished option.
