   I used a Eureka vacuum for a few years and it was having a lot of problems and just not getting up the pet hair from the carpet. After using this for a minute I was not seeing a difference, but then I pressed the button under the power and felt a huge difference on the carpet. This video is after I had vacuumed LAST WEEK!! I am shocked with how much hair and dust was picked up. I haven’t tried the other features yet but am so impressed and at an affordable price too.

   We got this in October of 2020. We have 2 large-ish dogs that shed a LOT (shown in one of the pictures). Every week we have to vacuum. Most of our floors are wood, but our stairs are tile, and downstairs is carpet. Up until a few weeks ago it was sucking just fine. However, I was noticing that when I would vacuum the rugs it would just push big blobs of fur off the edge instead of actually sucking it up. Which was frustrating, but I would just use the hose to suck those up. I checked the two filters (above and below the container) but it didn't help. Finally, I expressed my frustration to my husband and wondered if we needed a new vacuum. After looking at the expensive Dyson vacuums he decided he would take a look at it first. The picture that is attached shows what had collected underneath just behind the roller. Whooooeeeee! When he cleaned it out and tossed it into the garbage it made a loud "thunk" which gives you an idea of how much crud was in that clump. Anywho, I used the vacuum this weekend and it sucks just fine now :). Only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars was because we have had to fix the hose at one point because it cracked at the base. There also isn't an obvious place to put one of the attachments on the vacuum itself either which is a bit annoying. Otherwise, it works great now.

   I love so many of the features about this vacuum but it is EXTREMELY loud. I love how easy it is to quickly release and use the wand features. I have a long hair and a short hair cat and its great at getting their fur up. It has great suction and being able to turn off the spinning brush on hardwood floors is nice. BUT I wish it did a better job of getting the floors/carpets right against the walls. My previous vacuum (which was a lower price point) was great at getting the floors all the way against the walls and was much quieter and had better hight adjusting options.

   We have three cats and two dogs. I would use our other vacuums and have to push and pull over the hairs on the furniture and rugs and still couldn’t get it all. Out of frustration, one day, I ordered this amazing machine. Now, one pass picks up most hairs, a second pas gets the remaining ones. It’s astonishing, really. The powerhead attachment for furniture is as good as the main unit floor brush. You have to empty the canister more, even though it holds a lot, because of how much it picks up! I’m 75 years old now, and it’s hard for me to struggle with the other vacuums. This one, is simply a delight. (I have had all the big name brands, even that super expensive one… this wins hands down.)

   This new model is a HUGE (yes, it deserves capital letters) improvement and I (the previously annoyed owner) can heartily endorse this vacuum now. If any of you the hated unwieldy, top-heavy canister of an older model of this vacuum, you will be pleased with this new one. When we finally wore out a previous model after several years of hard work and lots of pet hair, I was very frustrated when my husband said he ordered the same vacuum. As a petite (although athletic) woman I had hated the way the upright portion and the tall canister attached to the handle often flopped sideways in my loose grip. Clearly the makers of this vacuum heard this complaint a lot because this new model has a shorter, wider canister. The weight is at the bottom so the entire vacuum feels lighter to me but has the same capacity for vacuuming up lots of pet hair and dust. Another improvement is that there is a switch up by the handle to change from tile floor to carpet/rug mode; the user no longer has to crouch down or bend over and be in a toe-touch position to turn a stiff control knob. Yay!!!!

   So it is a really heavy vacuum and pretty bulky. It has great suction power for 5-6 uses and then you have to take the entire thing apart and clean it out including unscrewing the bottom and even that isn't a sure thing. It is powerful and good at picking up my long hair and my rabbits fur but hard to maneuver and you need to clean it every time after the first initial uses. It is now 8 months since I got this and 6 months since I started using it. I used 1-3 times a month. It is now completely unusable. Personally, not sure if it is worth the price. Maybe I just have an extremely difficult home to clean but I don't think it is.

   This vacuum probably has great reviews because alot of people write their reviews to soon. At first this vacuum seemed great and worked great. But it only took a couple months to start falling apart. We had a dyson before this and it lasted 5 years. We decided to try saving a little money without going cheap. This vacuum at first seemed to work as good as the dyson. Then after a month one of the roller wheels fell out. I was able to put it back in. But then it would fall out constantly and then the other wheel started falling out and by the time it was 2-3 months old the wheels were to messed up to put back in. This vacuum has only been used for one small single story home with all tile and wood. Very disappointed. I would rather spend 1 or 2 hundred more and get 5 years then spend $200 and get 2-3 months. I did give 2 stars instead of one, simply because the suction was great and the ability to turn on and off the brush is great and uncommon in alot of vacuums.

   Absolutely love this sweeper! Had just vacuumed with my other sweeper the day before receiving this sweeper. The amount of hair & other debris that was picked up within one day was amazing. Picked almost as much within the next day. I'm sure this debris has been in my carpets for longer than I want to know. Highly recommended for long haired dogs like a German Shepherd (Shedder).
   Also, lighter weight so easier to move around but does not diminish suction power.

   Long review because I'm pissed off. If you have short-medium hair dogs this might be perfectly fine for you, but if you have dogs with long hair (like our Saint Bernard) stay away from this vacuum; it's garbage. Our first one worked well for about 9 months until we started having major issues with the rollers, even replacement ones.
   
   Customer service (with Bissel, NOT Amazon) was pretty good. The "protection" plan you can buy through Amazon is worthless and there was no record of it when trying to place a claim, even though I had proof of purchase in my order history. I went in a circle with this until I gave up and contacted Bissell. After submitting pictures of the issue and explaining what happened we were sent a brand new vacuum. I was also told that the roller needed to be replaced every 2-3 months along with the filters. This is NOT in line with the manual that states you only need to replace the roller/belt if there is indication to, which there wasn't in our case until it straight-up failed.
   
   When pulling the bottom cover off the only area where hair accumulates is within the belt housing and around the gear. Once it fills up (which is quick), it seems to be putting pressure on the roller within the slot that it fits into. Cleaning this area out is an uphill battle as it accumulates quickly, and it seems like a fundamental flaw in the design. What makes is more frustrating is that you have to remove the 9 screws to even access this spot. The roller might not accumulate hair, but this area sure does!
   
   Our new vacuum started having the same issue during the first vacuuming session, so I contacted Bissell again which was no help as I was only referred to the basic maintenance section and FAQ. I offered to pay the difference in cost for a better model but did not hear back. It does...okay if I baby it and go very slow which is frustrating, but the problem area still gathers hair so the issue is still there, it just takes slightly longer to fail. I replaced the roller today since the last started having similar issues, and again this one started stripping the plastic and freezing up due to blockage in the belt/gear housing. I'm giving up and pulling our old Shark out, as I'd rather deal with cutting the hair out of the rollers every few minutes than dealing with this useless trash of a vacuum.

   I like the suction power of this machine, but it is heavy for me. I'm 63 with severe back problems so I have to take breaks. The suction is so powerful on carpets it's hard to push back and forth when transitioning from my rugs to the hardwood floors. The lights on the front are great and you are able to see all the dust and dirt you have missed with the last machine. The pictures show how much with just 2 uses, wow! I do like the switch on the front to go from high to low surfaces. I would recommend it if you have pets or family with long hair, didn't seem to have any hair wrapped around anything inside yet.

   I’m always on the hunt for the best vacuum. We have a Bernese Mountain Dog & he leaves hair everywhere. Not to mention 3 kids & a cat. On carpet, this thing FAR exceeded my expectations. No hair caught around anything & the suction was fabulous. It will hold quite a lot & pulls so much dirt & dust that my stairs look new now!
   
   My one pet peeve that keeps this from being truly incredible is that it is TERRIBLE on regular non-carpeted flooring. It spits dirt out everywhere & doesn’t suck a lot up. On carpet? Incredible.

   Super easy for use. The cleaning is INSANE! We have lots of fine red dirt where we live and everyone we vacuum, I'm shocked how much dirt it pulls up. It's by far the best vacuum I've owned.
   
   I bought it because I have three daughters with long hair. I had to constantly clean the brushes between every room. This one, i only have to clean the brush every couple of months.
   
   The only reason i have it a 4 star is because to cut the hair off the roller brush is not easy. My past vacuum was insanely awesome and easy to clean. Wish this one had the easy access to clean it. Having to only clean it every couple of months is worth the hassle of trying to access it. Watch video & i go over things. More pro's than cons! You can see some of the red dirt dust falling in the video. Lol

   We had a small dust vacuum and decided to get this one for the whole house. The reviews said it had notably powerful suction and it was certainly not an exaggeration. This vac is one of the strongest I have ever used. It is a larger vac and a bit heavier than most but it needs that extra weight for the power. Because of its weigh it might not be ideal for stairs. It doesn’t get under furniture very well but does fine if you pull the handle and put the smaller attachment on it. Overall I am very pleased with it and I do recommend it for your home or small office.

   I am at that age in life where a new vacuum makes me really really happy. After reading reviews for this vacuum I had high hopes that it would be everything I ever hoped and dreamed of and maybe even repair my relationship with my very hairy dog that sheds every time he breathes.
   
   The suction on this vacuum is awesome. It sucks EVERYTHING UP! I’m pretty sure the suction was so powerful that it was picking up stuff through the floor boards of my house from 3 owners ago. I was so happy with this miracle machine originally! It has so many useful tools and it’s so easy for me to vacuum my stairs with it. It’s very versatile!
   
   However, a couple of weeks ago (we had only owned the vacuum for 2 months), I noticed that the spinner brush quit working. I tried several different things and then decided to take apart the bottom of the vacuum. My husband wanted to send it back for a refund, but I wanted to love it so badly! When I took apart the bottom of the vacuum, I spotted the problem right away. Our Great Dane/Great Pyrenees’ fur wasn’t getting wrapped around the spinner brush like so many vacuums before; however, it was getting caked up in little compartments around the spinner brush so the brush couldn’t spin. (See pictures) After cleaning it out and putting the bottom back together, the spinner brush worked again. I am really hoping this doesn’t continue happening.
   
   If this company sees my review and decides to use this feedback to improve their vacuum model, I would love to try it out! I am not going to return the vacuum, I like it too much. I may just need to continue cleaning out the bottom every now and again.

   Normally I am a huge Dyson fan. But, dog hair seemed to be everywhere with the new puppy. Once we put it together (easy peasy took about 5min) I vacuumed an area with my Dyson first and then went over the exact spot with this new vac and it was crazy how much hair and dirt it pulled up. The vacuum seems to get much deeper down in the fibers than any other vac I have ever used. Super happy with this purchase. The swivel head takes some getting used to but a 5 star purchase. Great buy if you have pets or not.

   We had a dison ball vac and I got tired of picking hair out of each part of the vac after each use. Started to loose suction and it was just heavy. Saw this read the reviews and first let me start by tell you I have four dogs that live in the house not toy dogs, but BIG dogs and hair is a issue. This thing is what I've been looking for, hair has YET to get rapped round the brush, not stopping and cleaning after each use. The can seperates the hair and ties it up, still have to reach up when emptying the can to get the hair but not like the dyson where I had to take the can apart everytime to get to the hair. I read that some people complain that it's heavy, for us it's not it's actually lighter than the Dyson and is pretty easy to move around. Bottom line, I finally found the love of my life.

   I have had laminate floors and hard wood floors for years - I have pets and hate having carpet. So, we finally sold our house in crappy California and purchased a home in Tennessee. Bad part, it has a house FULL of carpet. We have a double coated Border Collie/German Shepard, American Staffy, and a cat. I have really long hair and it falls out constantly. This vacuum is AMAZING - I got it on sale on National Pet Day or whatever it was called, ( it was last month and I got it for like $120 LESS than regular price) So, it was a no brainer. The canister is SO much better to empty than the Dyson you and everything falls out like it should. Dyson you had to stick your hand up in the canister and pull all the hair and crap out of it. It was disgusting. It's pretty heavy for me, im 5'6 and 127 so I need to raise the beater brush up higher because if it's too low, it's almost impossible to pull or push it. Im being dramatic - it's not impossible, but it's extremely difficult. It's extremely powerful. I really like it. Now, I need to buy a wet/dry/steam vac do to the carpets when someone barfs or brings in a dead bird or maimed squirrel as a gift for mom and dad. any suggestions on something that keeps the water SUPER Hot and will DRY very quickly.

But we have a short haired dog who sheds and I finally decided we might need something better than what we’ve been using.
   
   OH MY GOSH! This thing picked up so much hair! The photo is what it got after just one cleaning! I’m both excited and embarrassed, lol. It was easy to put together. I got the Febreeze filter which does freshen the air.

   Update 5/9/23
   We bought a Dyson Animal 2 and it is even more effective at cleaning and has significantly better maneuverability than this Bissell. Still room for improvement but vacuuming is fun again.
   
   Original:
   This is an EXCELLENT vacuum (5 stars) with abysmal maneuverability (1 star). We have a golden retriever, I have a lot of very long hair, and we live on a small farm. We vacuum the main rooms of the house at least every other day, and bedrooms a couple times a week.
   
   Maneuverability: extremely disappointing for the price point and overall quality of this machine. **This is the only reason we’re returning it.** We are active mid-30s adults with no major physical issues and it’s a chore to move this thing around when in use. I’m upset that we need to return this since it does do such a good job.
   
   Brush Roll: I expected the tangle-free brush roll to be an overstatement, but it’s not. After 2-3 weeks of use there isn’t a single visible hair wrapped around the brush roll. I’m pleasantly shocked.
   
   Effectiveness: extremely effective on rugs and carpet. Not the best on bare floors, but it does well enough. We have one older area rug made from synthetic yarn, it started as a low-pile rug and has gotten flattened over time. This vacuum does a good job and picks up hair our old vacuum couldn’t touch, but the poor maneuverability of the machine gets even worse on this rug. It’s nearly impossible to push the vacuum in some spots.
   
   Tools: the design of the pet hair turbo tool is actually quite good. Again, I’m shocked at how well it works given that it’s powered by air. I would actually use this tool frequently if we were keeping it. Didn’t use the other tools but they seem pretty standard.

   Assuming this machine withstands the test of time, this will be the best vacuum I've ever owned. I have a 135 lb mutt (lab, newfie, shepherd mix) and his hair is impossible to keep on top of. I can brush him all day and still find clumps of hair drifting across the floor like tumbleweeds a few hours later. I knew my last vacuum wasn't cutting it when I realized the hair stuck to the underside of my area rug wasn't coming up when vacuuming. This one sucked the hair up with a single swipe. The amount of hair, dirt, and dander that this machine picks up is unbelievable! The upholstery tool picked a ton of dander out of the loveseat, which is my dog's preferred spot. I already feel like my house is cleaner and that I'm breathing better. The machine is easy to use and to push back and forth. I'm not sure I consider this lightweight, but it should be easy to use for most able-bodied people. It is a bit fumbly on the steps and, as a tall gal, I wish the wand was a bit longer but isn't too cumbersome. It is easy to empty but does need to be emptied somewhat frequently (maybe if your pet isn't as furry you won't need to empty it as often). It could be improved by adding a cord recoiler, but that's probably me just being lazy. So far so good!

   I had to purchase this twice thinking the second time would be different. The piece that you twist into the back to hold the one brush and hook the hose on is cheap and broke both times. Returning my first one since I got my replacement but really upset that I now have to go get super glue so that it looks and works how it’s supposed to. It’s this puzzle like screw with 3 ridges that you have to insert upside down and then turn and it didn’t turn both times and broke. I definitely think bissell should rethink the way to have that there ie something that ACTUALLY screws in to hold the brush and hose OR already have it in there ! Some people may not have this bother them but spending over $200 on a vacuum then something like this happening not once but twice is annoying especially if you have ocd like me. Other then that I absolutely love the vacuum, I was actually disgusted after I did my floors with what it was able to suck up. Hopefully the super glue will fix then all will be good

   I have 2 German shepherds (pictured) that shed like crazy. I go through an "Inexpensive vacuum" every 1 to 2 years. I have tried the expensive ones, I own a Dyson, (It's my basement vacuum now). I owned an oreck that did last me a good 8 years. I must say I'm beyond impressed with this Vacuum. It is easy to put together. It does not feel cheap, in fact it looks and it feels very high quality. This vacuum has a slider setting That you can change from bare floor to thick pile carpet. With the Flip of a switch you can turn off the brush and glide easily from carpet to hardwood. And that light on the front! I love it! I'm easily able to see under the kitchen table when I vacuum and it works so wee, I do not have to swiffer before! It has brought back the life of my 10 year old carpet in my living room. Even my small kitchen rugs have have fluff and life back in them. This brush is awesome. You will not go wrong with this vacuum.

   Pros:
   - good suction (need someone step on smaller rugs it's so strong)
   - seems to pull out a lot of dirt and hair
   - small width brushroll gets to more places
   - doesn't seem to tangle yet
   - low brushroll gets under more places
   - pet hair eraser attachment actually works
   - can turn off brushroll
   - rubber nubbins on attachment tools help pick up dog fur
   - fairly quiet
   
   Cons:
   - small canister needs to be emptied frequently
   - no rewind cord (but that's what broke my last vacuum so maybe that's a pro?)
   - flexible turning makes it feel unstable at times
   - small width brushroll means more trips across the floor
   - pet hair eraser attachment doesn't store on vacuum
   - handle isn't a loop, have to hold the top only
   - crevice tool is tough to attach to hose
   - using the handle with attachments feels awkward at times
   - cannot completely disassemble container to clean
   - only low and plush carpet settings, not a gradient
   - have to step on brushroll to unlock vacuum
   - sometimes turning too quickly disables the brushroll (because it thinks you are going to lock it upright)
   
   Overall I'm happy with this vacuum in the month I've had it. I have 3 northern breed spitz dogs and they shed a lot. The photo is about 2 weeks in-between vacuums during shedding season. This vacuum seems to get out more dirt and hair than my old Hoover, which broke at its cord rewind (but oh how I miss that feature now). This vacuum fits under more furniture but feels wobbly in comparison to my previous, and has a smaller head that lets you get more places but requires more trips to get the whole room.
   I dislike that I cannot disassemble the dirt container, if it gets too full (which happens quickly) hair gets trapped around the top of the canister and I had to use a screwdriver to dislodge it. Taking off the handle only gets you to the filter. And the handle is not a complete/closed circle, so you can only hold it at the top which felt weird at first. Using the handle with attachments is a little awkward at times especially when trying to clean under the sofa. I had difficulty detaching the handle while the vacuum was on (could be due to suction). Stepping on the brushroll to unlock it is a little strange too.
   It's pretty quiet and interesting to be able to turn the brushroll on and off, and I like being able to do my stairs with a vacuum instead of having to use a dust buster.

   I love this vacuum!
   I’m going to start with MY cons for those just looking for negatives, but please read on because I have more positive things than negative things to say.
   
   Cons:
   The hose gets twisted very easy when going back and forth between the vacuum and hose. Simple to untwist.
   
   The joint from the head to the motor/body is just a little more weak than I’d like. If I’m using the hose and reaching too far it will fall over, while the head stays on the floor. I can see how this would be beneficial for anyone that has decreased strength when trying to vacuum normally, but for me it’s annoying. I just keep my vacuum body right next to me with my hand on the top if I’m really reaching.
   
   The standard filter it comes with is not sealed in plastic. I wish I would’ve used the standard filter first instead of the sealed fabreze filter it additionally came with. The standard filter is basically collecting dust in my cleaning pantry.
   
   For smaller solid debris it clogged easily. Sunflower seed shells specifically. It was easy to take apart and fix though.
   
   Sometimes hair gets caught around the green center in the canister. If you give the canister a twisty-shake it will fall off into two pieces, and subsequently into the trash. It’s just messy to get loose.
   
   There is no place on the vacuum to attach the roller, so you’ll have to find somewhere to store it.
   
   The Pros/ background;
   
   Our first vacuum was a shark navigator.... 5 years ago. It worked great in our tiny apartment for $150 but then pets, kids, moving, and a crack in the bottom hose happened and it just wasn’t doing the job anymore. We have 3 cats, so I wanted something that I KNEW would get ALL the cat hair. I order the Bissell from amazing warehouse for $160 versus the $230 (ish) it costs brand new. It was in the original box, there was no dust in the tubing, and all of the pieces were still individually wrapped in bissell bags.
   
   My order took a little over a week to arrive, and I didn’t vacuum from the moment I ordered it. Normally I would’ve vacuumed 5 times in that time frame. When it arrived it took about 5 minutes to assemble and read all the instructions/warnings.
   
   I first used my old vacuum to vacuum my 9’x11’ rug - then I used the bissell. I love validating a big purchase, and this definitely SHOWED me it was worth getting a new vacuum, especially this one.
   
   We do not wear shoes in our house - and I carpet clean between every 2 weeks to once a month (I like how it fluffs my carpet). I expected the vacuum to outperform my 5 year old shark... but I didn’t expect what you see in the pictures. It picked up all of the super fine cat hairs, and so, SO MUCH DIRT. 🤢 I cannot believe all of that was in my rug, which I’ve only had 17 months.
   
   The pictures speak for themselves... it has amazing suction power. The attachments are nice also, I like the LED wand, and the pet hair rubber tipped one even more. The attachment that rolls when you connect it is nice for the stairs, but aside from the rubber coated roller inside, it is similar to others I’ve used before.
   
   It maneuvers wonderfully, with a twist of the wrist to makes very smooth turns. Because of the way the head is attached to the motor you are able to turn the head basically 90 degrees while keeping the motor/body of the vacuum straight. That makes getting around my dining table chairs much faster when I’m not moving all of the chairs.
   
   I liked that the handle, where your thumb would naturally rest, is where you adjust for carpet thickness. Moving from plush carpet to my rug is fast because I just flip the vent with my thumb for lower carpet setting.
   
   The hose is great on the handle, and has equal suction ability as the vacuum (if not more).
   
   Mine came with a Febreze filter insert in addition to the unscented original. It does smell amazing when running my vacuum, and is surprisingly only noticeable when running the vacuum. This is not mandatory to use if you are sensitive to smells. It comes in with a non scented filter.

   Let me just start off by saying this is my first review on Amazon. I am FLOORED by this vacuum. I have a long-haired German Shepherd and a Belgian Malinois so believe me when I say I have HORRIBLE amounts dog hair everywhere. Before this vacuum, we’ve had to take a legitimate window squidgy and run that across the carpet to just get a top layer of hair off the floor, and THEN vacuum to even feel remotely satisfied.
   
   Two mediocre and destroyed vacuums later, I was fed up with hours of carpet squidgying. I’m in the military, I’m 21-years-old, and I’m tired at the end of the day. Fortunately, Christmas is coming up and my lovely aunt got this for me as an early present.
   
   I have never in my life wanted to vacuum as much as I do now. As soon as I got home, I was eager to put this bad boy together and get to work.
   
   The directions are on little tags which would be somewhat difficult to read if you have glasses. I’m more of an assemble-as-you-go and hope for the best kind of girl. Which, I got it together correctly. Thankfully.
   
   Flash forward and I am appalled by the amount of hair, grime, dust, etc. this thing sucks off the carpet! It’s fairly lightweight. As a reference, again, 21, and two, I’m fairly active and in-shape. So, if you are older, no offense, or have trouble moving around, this vacuum may be relatively tiring depending on carpet space or work load. I live in a smaller, single-story home, and still emptied the bin several times. Let’s just say, I felt like a disgusted human being after vacuuming the house.
   
   I have read numerous reviews before I selected this vacuum and was hesitant at first. The Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Turbo WORKS! I 110% recommend this vacuum to someone who is struggling with finding a vacuum that actually works for pet hair and/or that dreads cleaning because of pet hair.

   I was so excited when this arrived on my porch. I had been using hand-me-down vacuums for years, and it was finally time that we were able to get a brand new one. I scoured reviews on Amazon and Reddit to try and determine which vacuum would be best. I thought that I would get a Dyson, but after reading a sparkling review for this vacuum on Reddit (and the reviews on Amazon), I decided this was the vacuum for us.
   
   I have vacuumed almost daily (sometimes twice) since we got it, because I love how much it sucks. :D
   
   Seriously, I danced around with it as I watched what it picked up that our old vacuum just couldn't. I used to have to change out vacuum bags, and now it is a simple canister-dump! We have cats, and our litter boxes set on carpet with litter catching mats. As much as these mats help, sometimes litter gets into the carpet. This vacuum seems to get every tiny particle of dust and litter - it is wonderful. It works on both carpet and tile.
   
   It is quite easy to maneuver around the furniture, and the canister can be moved to the side to get under low furniture. It would be difficult to vacuum under the bed with this vacuum due to the canister not fitting under the bed. It goes up against the wall easily and cleans well.
   
   The attachments are wonderful and have allowed me to clean my furniture, cat trees, and blinds with much ease. The "arm" of the vacuum that detaches from the floor part of the vacuum is long enough to reach in higher corners. The arm can be removed and the attachments can be connected directly to the hose. This was wonderful for cleaning the cat trees and furniture. It took a little bit to figure out the best angle to set the vacuum, but once found it worked great!
   
   Overall, I would recommend this vacuum to anyone with pets. It is easy to maneuver, easy to change attachments, and great suction.
