Best Pet Hair Vacuum List Published by Vacuum Cleaner Advisor

Seattle, WA, October 28, 2010 --(PR.com)-- With roughly 170 million cats and dogs in the US alone, many vacuum cleaner buyers want to know which vacuum is best at picking up pet hair. Based on recent research, Vacuum Cleaner Advisor has chosen three vacuums as top of the line for picking up pet hair most effectively.

Top honors for the best pet hair vacuum goes to the Dyson DC25 Animal. What does this vacuum have going for it? First and foremost, it is designed especially for homes with pets, and it comes with a special tool for removing pet hair stuck to stair runners, carpets and upholstery. Thousands of consumer ratings and vacuum reviews for this machine tout its amazing ability to deal with pet hair. Many consumers have observed that the DC25 Animal’s powerful suction pulls up much more pet hair than competitors’ vacuums, and the turbine tool with its spinning brush works wonders on stairs and upholstery. The extra-long, extra-flexible vacuum hose on the DC25 Animal is also handy for reaching hair under furniture or in other areas that are easy for a pet to get to, but hard for a cleaner to access. The bottom-empty dirt canister is also said to be easy to empty and doesn’t leave hair stuck to the inside. Although it retails at a somewhat pricey $550, those that bought the machine feel it was worth the money.

The number 2 machine on Vacuum Cleaner Advisor’s list is the Bissell Cleanview Helix 21K3. Much more affordable than the Dyson, it can usually be found for about $100. Many consumers rave about this unit’s ability to pull up pet hair from carpets. It also comes with a rotating brush attachment that excels at removing dirt and pet hair from stairs and upholstery. In addition, the hose does not clog easily and the easy-to-empty dirt canister leaves limited pet hair clinging to the inside. With the 21K3 it is important to keep the filters clean to ensure maximum vacuum suction.

For quick pet hair pick up in small areas one needs look no further than the final top-rated machine on the list: the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Hand Vac. This extremely inexpensive hand vacuum can often be found for less than $30 and has a following of loyal pet owners. Consumers give this small unit very high marks for its ability to remove pet hair from any surface. It is very light and it even comes with HEPA filtration to remove allergens from the air, a feature rarely seen on a handheld vacuum.
