Pet Vacuums
Pet vacuums are vacuum cleaners specifically designed for picking up pet hair and dander.
A relatively new concept, stubborn pet hair problems created a market for vacuum manufacturers to create individual vacuums (and even entire product lines) based on this need. Although called "pet vacuums" most of these vacuums will also do all of the other household vacuuming needs that you have. In this article I will discuss some of the popular vacuums available that will help you remove pet hair.
The Eureka Boss Smartvac 4870MZ was recently rated number 1 as the best budget vacuum cleaner. These pet vacuums include a sealed HEPA filter to capture 99.97 percent of household dust, pollen, and allergens. Reviewers stated that this vacuum did a good job of sucking up pet hair from carpets. It includes a "Power Paw" attachment, that allows you to easily clean pet hair from stairs and furniture. Another nice feature is it's wide 15-inch cleaning path the allows you to vacuum quickly with less effort. One of the most common complaints about this vacuum was that it was too heavy .
The Kenmore Progressive 36932 is a popular mid-priced bagless vacuum. Bagless vacuums are popular because they save you the money that you would have to spend on replacement bags, however this does pose a problem. When you have to empty the bin that the dirt and dust collects in, you will be exposed to the very pet hair and dander that your are trying to remove from your home.
Another popular pet vacuum cleaner model is the Bisell LiftOff Revolution. Bissell is a well-known and trusted name in the vacuum cleaner industry. This vacuum features a 12-amp motor and 7 different height selection settings for a wide variety of surfaces and carpet thicknesses. It also features a 30-foot power cord, allowing you to move freely about the house without the need for constantly changing power receptacles. Of particular interest to pet owners is that this model includes a handheld Turbo Brush for pet hair extraction. One consideration concerning this model are that it includes 3 filters, 1 HEPA and 2 foam. The directions state that you should clean the foam filters once a month, however they can get dirty pretty quickly and if you have a pet hair problem, you will probably need to clean them more often than this.
When most users think of luxury pet vacuums, the name Dyson usually comes to mind. The Dyson pet vacuums are probably the most admired vacuums available. Some users are so enthusiastic about the Dyson brand, that they border on fanatical! Dyson manufactures 3 different models specifically for pet owners. The DC25 Animal, DC28 Animal, and the DC31 Animal.
Luckily there are many choices available when looking for a pet vacuums. From budget vacuum cleaners for just over 100 dollars to luxury pet vacuums that sell for almost 600 dollars, with some research, pet hair doesn't have to be a problem anymore.
