With more and more of us owning pets it has become increasingly important for us to clean up effectively after we have let out beloved pets roam all round the house and lay about on our carpets and furniture. This means more work for the person clearing the house as cleaning up all the hairs and possible pet mites is no small task. What is needed is a pet specific cleaner and with so many different cleaners on the market today we need to find out what is the best vacuum for pet hair.

There are so many cleaners on the market today and manufactueres have listened to their customers and now provide a whole host of attachments and even ones specific to cleaning pet hair off of carpets and furniture.

The main rule of thumb is that upright cleaners tend to be a lot more effective than cylinders at cleaning pet hair. They have motorised brush heads that are better at prising fur away from carpet fibres. Cylinders don't usually have motorised heads but some models have turbobrushes or electrobrushes, which are designed specifically for this task.

So which model vacuum cleaners should you be looking at?

  • Dyson DC14 & DC15 Animal - Has a mini turbine head for picking up pet hair
  • DCO8 Telescope Wrap Animal - Has a mini turbine head for picking up pet hair
  • Eureka Boss 4D - Has a turbo brush attachment for cleaning pet hairs
  • Roomba Discovery - Deep clean mode does all the hard work for you
  • Miele TT5000 Cylinder Vacuum Cleaner, Cat & Dog

All of the above model vacuum cleaners have had very good customer reviews and should make your short list. However the two cleaners that keeps coming up at the top of reviews is the Miele Cat & Dog and the Dyson Animal options on thri DC14, DC15 & DC08 models.

Looks like both Dyson and Miele have really listened to their customers and come up with cleaners whose main purpose is to help clean stubborn pet hairs while at the same time offering a great all round vaccum cleaner.

The Miele has not one but 'two' turbo brushes which makes the job of pet hair removal a simple task while the Dyson Animals have a mini turbine head that cleans pet hair and dirt from confined spaces such as upholstery, stairs and car.

Whatever cleaner you decide upon make sure and do your homework and find reviews of all the cleaners on your list. We have narrowed down your search to 2 great cleaners so make sure and check these out first.

I read the features of the Eureka The Boss 4D (from Kohl's) and it doesn't mention a turbo brush. It does have a PowerPaw brush, which must be a turbo brush.
