how does this work on carpeted stairs? Does it have a rotating brush? I have long hair dogs and need something that has good suction to get them clean

No rotating brushes. It has a good amount of suction.....but I don't have pets so I don't know if it would work for that.

No rotating brush, but it will work good... Sucks hard and has a brush attachment you can use on carpet.

Sorry, I have no pets so I don't have an answer. It picks up my hair but I imagine dog hair is much thicker. The brush is a regular one with two straight rows; they're fairly stiff and help to lift hair from carpeting.

It's VERY powerful. We don't have carpet or dogs so I don't know about that. No rotating head but 2 attachments that help loosen debris.

I have pets and it's picks up everything on my stairs and you can also rotate the visor on the front to vacuum both vertically and horizontally...fantastic feature! I also clean my furniture with it, great suction. It's a very good handheld, best I've ever owned.

It comes with a crevice tool and brush attachment . It gets my 8x10 rug clean. No attachment for stairs. It works great.

The turbo-head attachment that came with mine has a rotating brush inside the head. it works on a suction basis and is not powered (like my old Kenmore was) Be warned though, it will bind and or stop on thick pile carpet.

It's not that great in stairs but it is great for pet hair and dirt on a tile floor!

Yes, that was a main reason for purchasing it. It has a smaller head attachment that can be used for stairs. However, it is also easy to vacuum carpeted stairs with it as is, because it is lightweight and swivels.

It comes with a brush that is excellent for vacuuming pet hair off of places like speakers, pillows, cat beds, and furniture; in fact I use it for that purpose once a week. This brush is gentle on furniture and superior for dusting pet hair off of some surfaces, as the powerful suction lifts the flyaway hair away, and dusting would only make it fly around more. It also comes with a mini hand vacuum attachment with its own revolving brush inside that is great for flat surfaces like couches, hard to reach corners, and stairs.

I use it for my stairs, not for pets. It takes a little practice to learn to use actually. Put to much pressure on it and it does stick. It's not powered by a motor, only suction.

the brush can be raised & lowered like most vacuums-- it cleans non-carpet floors quite well; no scratching--- often run a soft mop-like unit afterwards to pick up any stray any thing that blows across the floor--

I have carpet like this and it works great. Still amazed at how much dirt it pulls up from carpet. With golden retriever hair in the house, I empty out the chamber every time its used, if not 2x so that the suction power stays strong. * There is also height adjustment option on the unit.

It has narrow powerbrush. Great for stairs. I like the way it works but I would probably bought the one with wheels if it had been out. You have to carry this around or lift it and set it down when using it on carpets.

It works great on pet hair! I have 2 indoor-outdoor cats. The Hoover Platinum vacuum system is very effective at cleaning up fur, dander, and any debris the cats bring in from outside. The bags collect everything and seal it inside. The upright vacuum cleans up pet hair from the carpets and hard floors. The canister vacuum cleans upholstery and cleans up corners, baseboard, all those hard-to-get-at spots. These vacuums are lightweight, easy to use, and do an excellent job.

It works well on steps. Mine only have a carpet runner and the pile is very short and stiff and it cleans them quite well. The first time I used it, I noticed that it picked up a lot more dirt then my previous handheld vacuum.

Works very well on my carpet. You use it like you would use a rake. My carpet has a thick pile and doesn't get dirty but the pile can get pressed down from walking on it. Using the rake means less vacuuming for me. It would work well to pick up pet hair but I have no pets.

I bought this sweeper specifically because the pet model from Bissell was not available, and the heavy duty was backordered. We have four cats, two dogs, and sometimes have two other dogs visit for "sleepovers." This sweeper picks up pet hair quite well. Might I also add that I use the little spin-sweeper handle for our carpeted stairs, and it grabs hair well. The only issue I have ever had fighting hair has been in our car, and that is because we did not sweep out our car for a long time; this resulted in the hair's burrowing itself deep into the carpet. (Bulldog hairs have barbs on them that face the opposite direction, and they are hard to remove from car carpeting.)

It has little bristles that stick out on one side and they rotate in a circle. That helps the ROOMBA reach corners and flat walls. It has helped keep the traffic dirt and dust down in my house. I still do a good clean on the floors once a week. Before the ROOMBA I was sweeping once or twice a day. (I do have 4 kids though)

I have not tried that. If your dog is long haired I suspect that the dog hair would be caught in the rotating one. My dog is not fond of the vacuum so I would not even try with her. She does have wiry short hair and the rotating attachment works well.
