I have 4 dogs...how good is this for picking up dog hair?
1358984
I had 3 dogs for years ( now 2 ) and this machine does a fantastic job of getting the pet hair up. My Daughters all have long hair and their hair is actually the most difficult getting trapped in the beater roller! When this happens we have to use scissors to clip the hair off. Our dogs are a Peekapo and a Bichon poodle mix and the dog we lost was a Mini Labrador. The Lab's hair used to clump twice a year when her coat would change and we had to vacuum constantly, but the Bissell does the job very well. The dogs hair never seemed to get into the rollers like our kids hair. So it goes.. Hope this was helpful.

It's actually very good. One drawback however, is that the canister is small and between it and the filter tends to fill up rather quickly.

I don't yave a dog right now but I might be getting one soon. I'll update then if I do. But I think it would do great because my friends hair was about 3-4 ft long and it picked hers up fantasticly. The only trouble I had was that after my whole apartment I had to cut some off the brush roller but not much and dog hair isn't as long as that. You probably will have to empty the canister more often than I do because the extra hair.

It does work great for picking up dog hair..but the vacuum itself wasn't designed well!!! I wouldn't get it.

It picks up dog hair great! It maneuvers so well. I have a rug on top of medium shag carpet and it goes well from one to the other I also have tile and I just turn off the brush and vacuum the tile. I have a bad back and this vacuum is lightweight too!

Simple answer NO! We have two dogs that shed and three cats. No problems with hair pickup.

It works well on hardwood floors with floor brush attachment. We have dogs and it picks up all dog hair with lots of suction

Best vacuum I have ever owned for pet hair. It has great suction. I have only owned it a short while, but I have had no problems with smell. Plus, it gets both bulldog hair and golden retriever hair.

This cleaner is very powerful for a lightweight unit. I feel it did an excellent job of removing dirt from deep down in my carpet. I don't have pets but feel it would pick up whatever is in the carpet. Good luck!

I have a friend that says it does great! He uses it in his motor home and it picks up long white dog hair really well. My dog is short haired, but he also sheds, and I think that it works pretty well for us, too.

Most definately. I have birds and a Guinea pig and it very good at picking up small seeds and bedding. I also have dog's and it works great on dog hair!

It does a very good job picking up pet hair on floors and rugs in upright mode. The power hand tool does a good job on upholstery, but it takes some practice and more than one pass with my cat's hair. Make sure to clean the dirt cup and the cyclonic filter regularly though.

Hoover is great for quick pick ups only. Don't even think about it if you have pet hair. I returned it right away.

Well...i have 1 dog and 4 cats and for me this has been wonderful!!!!! i use it 99% of the time on hard surfaces ( kitchen and bathroom floors ) but i have ran it across hair on the carpet and it picked up just fine...i also use it to pick up cat litter near the litter box....i love this and i think you would too :)

I bought this model for its light weight. The suction power easily picks up the hair of our dog and two cats. Very satisfied.

How often do you have to clear out the hair? I have 5 dogs. I would be constantly empting it, right?

Like all vacuums, it depends on what you are picking up- small leaves & general dirt are fine, but anything larger or heavier, not so consistent results. Does not do much to remove pet hair!! I love it for kitchen crumbs & some of those hardto reach places In the house, but results for car debris are mixed

I think so, I have three cats and i dog, so it is a heavy traffic vacuum. I am very satisfied with it and it picks up everything!

It works well... especially picking up dog hair. It's a little difficult to get corners and up against the wall, but works great getting dog hair together. Especially in my car and furniture .
