UltraLight PetPro Corded Stick Vacuum HZ702

I have the same problem. The only solution I've found is 1) use a scraper to get the visible hair out of the carpet first. I know it's tedious, but it'll extend the life of your vacuum significantly. 2) clean the vacuum! Follow the manufacturer's instructions exactly. 3) Don't be cheap with the machine. It's better to get a $300 machine that will last for years, than a $100 machine that will last for a few months. Shark vacuums are good and reliable. I use a shark petpro and it's fantastic.

My wife is totally in love with her Shark Pet Pro corded. It is lightweight but has enough power to actually lift the carpet. Honestly, it is a good little vacuum. It's $250cdn.

UPDATE: so we decided to buy a Shark light pet (I think that’s at least half the name). It’s actually very easy to use, simple, and was so good at cleaning our carpets from pet hair! The spot where their dog lays every night and day was cleaned in one run over- something that even my own vacuum takes a few tries to get fully clean. Only downsides are it’s a bit heavy but hey- good for older folks who need some strength in their day and it’s also very loud but again- they’re old and losing their hearing so I guess that doesn’t matter to them LOL Anyways, I’d highly recommend the Shark pet vacuums!

I agree, I have a shark also and they are GREAT VACUUMS!!! It might be the pet-pro, but I don’t remember it’s exact name and I’m not home to check. It’s the one specifically for pets because I have 2 cats with lots of fur also. I kid you not, I have had this vacuum for coming up on 10 YEARS this summer and it still works and looks like the day I bought it with normal upkeep, and the only thing I’ve needed to replace is the filters (it has 3 different ones) which I buy on Amazon for super cheap!

I have a Shark Pet Pro Stick that plugs in, and it's really great on my hardwood floors and area rugs. I can't speak to super longevity yet, I've had it since 2023 with no issues. I used to have a Riccar, which is one of the good (but not quite Miele expensive) brands, and it was incredible- but it was also really heavy, and cumbersome. For me, regardless of how "good" the appliance is, the best one is the one I actually use. This and the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser handheld are my super duo. I have a short-haired dog who sheds like crazy and a maine coon. The tumblefuzz happens quickly if I skip a cleaning day.

I bought a stick vacuum (Shark Pet Pro) because I was sick of lugging our canister vacuum up and down the stairs.

Sharks are great. We have a corded, stick vac and a handheld one in our house and they all work well. Great suction, easy to clean and decent battery lives.
