Does it catch pet hairs? I have a short haired hair who sheds constantlt

Yes, it does catch pet hair. We have three (yes, 3) cats. I'd suggest you get an extra quantity of the washable "Cut-to-Fit Carbon Pad for Air Purifiers". You'll need to change them out fairly often with a shedding pet in the house.

I have a cat and it does not eliminate pet hair in the house, it catches some but not all. It sucks air so if the pet hair is not directly behind the machine it won't pick it up.

Yes, it definitely picks up cat hair. We have two cats that shed year-round, a long-hair and a short-hair. The long hair winds up on the brushes so you have to manually pop the brushes out by flexing the plastic housing slightly near the wheel axles and then pick away the hair. Clean out the housing while you're at it. A brushless vac with a bag or dust container makes the job easier.

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

Our dog is more along the lines of a hound so while she sheds, her hair is not very long and isn't really a problem. However, after each use of the vac and beater brush I make it a habit to check and if necessary, clean off the brushes.

Since I have no pets, I cannot guarantee or vouch anything. But from my daily use of this vacuum (I am a bit of neat freak), I assume that this should work fine on pet hair. You might just have to empty a canister more often. But I find it to be so easy.

I think this may work on short dog hair, but you should consider a vacume with higher amps or power if you are trying to clean thicker or longer hair.

I have a dog that sheds and usually lays on the area rugs. It does a good job picking up the dog hair. I don't use it on my wood floors, but don't know why it wouldn't pick up.

I have 4 cats, 130 pound dog and I just had a baby so my hair falls out all the time and I can say that it picks up hair very in my home. We have tile, wood and vinyl floors.

We have a 560, our dog is a mini Schnauzer, so he doesn't shed. But, my husband is 80 yrs. old and he IS shedding, it picks up his hair very well. We really like our Roomba, would recommend it .

My hair is short (couple of inches) so it doesn't get caught. It is just a brush/curlng iron.

No. It gets the fine hair underneath. I have used it on my lab and a cat who sheds a ton . The cat especially looks so much better!

I have 2 ever shedding dogs in my home. YES! This vac works GREAT not only on my carpets, but my tile and furniture as well. Best vac I ever owned! I have had it for 3 months now and I use it for everything! You would never believe the power this vac has until u try it.

I cant believe the pet hair it picks up -- I have three cats and two are short hair and my carpet and furniture looks great after using my new vacuum.

Hi Lana....good question! I have owned a Hoover Wind Tunnel for about 20 or 25 years now and have never had that problem. I know it does pick up pet hair very nicely. I used to have 6 cats and 2 dogs and my housecleaner used my Hoover and never complained about pet hairs not being picked up. Since getting my new Hoover Wind Tunnel I only have one dog who does not shed and my hair is short. So I don't really have an answer for your question. But it would really surprise me if you did have any problems at all with this vacuum.

I have not experienced that. I sometimes wash my hair in the kitchen sink and it catches all the hair. That's pretty small.

Let me put it this way, my hair is down to my ...you know...and It picks it up. It gets wound around the roller brush because it is so long but it is simple to remove. When I vacuum my carpet and I pull out the filter to empty out what it picked up...I am amazed at how much pet hair was on the filter and it pulls off in one piece. I am so happy I bought the Eureka Easy Clean so I don't have to pull out the big vacuum anymore when I want to vacuum while the pets are shedding this time of year. Please keep in mind that I have a regular carpet, not shag, so I don't know how it works on that but I bet it would work just fine on that too!

I have two cats that shed a fair amount. The pet hair makes it so you have to clean it out a lot more frequently but it takes care of it pretty well for me.
