Can you vacuume a thicker pile rug with this?

It works on my two bedrooms with carpet but mainly I use it on hardwood and tile floors,,,It has a selection that activates a curled brush roller that seems to work on carpet ok

No. The brushroller does not have enough power for thicker carpets, and will likely stop. You may get it to work a little bit if you go really slow.

No, I used it with my Shark vac. It is very thick and almost cat litter texture. It was hard to vacuum up

I agree with the other commenter...This is would not be an ideal choice for rugs/carpet. It does a great job picking up small debris on tile and hardwood flooring as well as food crumbs, etc. on upholstered furniture when used as a hand vac.

Not really. If the pile of the area rug was very low, then maybe. It is really best for hard floors.

great question! I have plush carpets in my home including a rug with almost 2 inch pile. it works wonderfully on my thick carpet. it has no problem gliding across it and pulling up all the dirt and hair. I was most impressed by the fact that it worked awesome on my rug. because the rug is so thick, there's going to be some resistance, but It is the first vacuum that could handle moving across the rug without the beaters getting tangled in a pile. when comparing my other vacuums it seems that the bristles on the beater are shorter which is why it works so well in carpets like this. definitely worth it. great question!

Yes, it is very easy to use on high pile carpets. It seems to pull itself forward and I just have to pull it back. Works like a dream.

Hi. The closest I'd have to area rugs are the extra mats that I put down in our front entrance for the winter months. The vacuum suction can be lowered very easily [there's a dial on the vacuum to increase/decrease suction power] so I do not have any issues.Regards,Duane

Yes, it can, also rugs and floors, but I can't figure out how to adjust the level for really thick rugs.

I cannot speak for other brands, but I like my Bissell Featherweight Vacuum. It is indeed for light jobs though, I use it to clean my area rugs and hard wood floors. My family however agrees with the reviewer that call it a electric dust rag. I guess it depends on what type of job you are going to use it for. However, I would not recommend it for thick, plush carpet. I hope this helps:)

No problem at all. I have a large rug that is almost like shag carpet. It vacuums it and does it well. I have two large furry dogs and a cat, this thing is a life saver. I used to vacuum every couple days, now I can wait a week.

Yes. I had to buy it for that carpet because my Dyson wouldn't work. It has adjustable heights so it works great. I really like it.

i am sorry to say that i don't have a high pile carpet. i have a low and medium and it works very very well on those. from my miele experience i feel they are amazing vacuums. good luck.

Not sure if the suction is strong enough to pull cat litter out of a deeper pile carpet. If it is a low pile berber type carpet I would think it would work okay.

My opinion? Picking up hair from hard surfaces is no problem but it's not really designed to do that well with hair in any medium to thick pile rug.

Yes...as mentioned by another, if the rug is lightweight, make sure you don't use too much suction, or stand close to where you're vacuuming so it doesn't lift up. Be caeful with tassels, also

I have low pile carpet on my second floor and I think it works well. But another model might work better. This is a great vacuum I can't complain.

Yes, it can. I have very thick carpeting in my living room and Neato works like a charm on it!
