Query: Better off using a broom

I've owned this vacuum for about a year now, and have been having problems with it for about 6 months. For the first six months it worked great, but after that it was clog after clog after clog. The hose that leads from the cleaning head is continuously stopped up, and I spend more time dismantling it and shoving coat hangers in there than I do vacuuming. I've gutted it more than once in hopes of finding a secret stash of hair that keeps it from sucking. No luck. Instead, the vacuum spits the dirt and hair out the back of the cleaning head at my feet. Avoid vacuuming around a cat box unless to like having litter shot at you.
