It's too bad no one has replied to your post - I have the same question! I can only tell you that I currently have a Dyson (w/ all hardwood floors & two cats) and I am not impressed. Good luck.

It's amazing with pet hair on hard floors! It doesn't have a spinning attachment so it doesn't blow the pet hair around when you are trying to suck it up. No chasing the hair around. I have two large retrievers and they are the reason I bought this vacuum. I do not regret it!

Yes the vacuum works on hardwood floors and carpet! But I would recommend looking into a different vacuum. Too many filters to keep clean and only works well when vacuum is clean itself. I was very disappointed! I got another vacuum if you can afford a dyson they work the very well.

It is great for dogs and hair in carpet. It does not have a soft feel on wood floors so I fear scratching these surfaces is possible. Great vacuum on all but wood floors.

I don't have any pets, but it's fabulous on hardwood floors and carpets. Seamless transition when one goes from one to the other. Many attachments that can work for pet hair.

Try the Bissel V (versus) - I just got one and love it so far. I needed a vacuum for hardwoods & area rugs that would pick up dog hair. My regular vacuum is just too loud; this one didn't even wake the dog. I was skeptical about the whole "v" design - while I haven't yet had the kind of mess that it is supposed to funnel, it made getting around table & chair legs really easy.

This vacuum works great! We don't have hardwood floors. But, it works great on our short pile and extra pile carpeting. We have a few cats and we vacuum often. My husband loves the features. He especially likes that the beater bar disengages when using the extra tools. Great vac for pet owners!

I have a combo of w/w carpet, hardwood floors, and tile. I use the floor brush attachment for the hardwood floors and tile. It works great! I also have the dog hair issue; not a problem.

Vinager, water and a mop is the best cleaning you can have for hardwood floors. I had African Mohogany floors and kept them like new for 8 years till I sold house.

I bought the Dyson DC33 a few months ago and it is the best vacuum I have ever had. I have mostly carpeting and some hardwood but it works well with both. You may want a response from someone with all hardwood flooring BUT I must say the thing is powerful.. I told my brother in law to get one for my sis for Xmas... unromantic gift of course! haaa

The Roomba is amazing - I would marry it if it was feasible! Seriously it is great but we have 99% wooden and tiled floors and lots of animals so it handles the load really well. But we do have some black rubber backed low profile mats and it can have problems with them.

This vacuum is best on hard floors, and just ok on carpet. I use it on vinyl, wood and low pile floor carpets. It will do well with pet hair.

I only use it on hardwood but it works great picking up the dog hair. I'm real glad I bought it

I own both vacuum cleaners. The Pet Lover is great because of the extra attachment for pet hair. I love it.

I have all of that, plus an extra dog. This vacuum keeps the floors perfectly clean. The vacuum-powered rotating brush does a magnificent job on my rugs. I get lazy and use it on the wood floors, too. Sometimes, the rubber wheels leave skid marks but they're easily wiped away. The vacuum does come with a regular head, without a rotating brush. So when I'm feeling energetic I actually put that one on to clean the hardwoods and avoid skidmarks.

The Dyson DC33 would work great for you. I also have varying surfaces in my home and long hair. The vacuum sucks up all kinds of hair and debris on all kinds of surfaces. Had it for a couple of months and I love it

It is the best vacuum ever for hard floors! The suction is superior to every vacuum I have ever owned. I also have a pet that sheds and it removes pet hair very efficiently! The attachments are great! You will not regret buying it!
