How well do the attachments work on pet hair (3 cats)?

I have 5 cats. The Pet Power Paw is useless. It worked one time and never worked again. I have found that the other small attachment with the brush end works very well on furniture and on the stairs for picking up cat hair.

The Pet Power Paw works great!!!! I have a cat tree with three shelves, carpeted, leading up to the top circle and use the power paw on this and it does an outstanding job. This machine is very powerful whether using just the vacuum or the attachments. I would highly recommend for anyone with multiple cats. It is heavy and if you have stairs it is a consideration.

I can say, that with this Eureka Upright, "Billy"(our big brute) and "Betty" (our pretty kitty) who's long white fur was everywhere. On the very first time we used the vac on the hallway runner rugs, I was totally amazed on how well it picked up all the fur. To be honest. I have not used the small power brush attachment. Like the other answer, the vac is heavy. It has literally picked up better, than anything I have used before, especially for its price.

Very much so. The pet attachment it comes with is very proficient at removing pet hair off any surface.

I have two kitty-cats and the vacuum has worked very well, so far, in picking up their hair from oriental rugs in the living/dining rooms, and from the carpets throughout the house. I haven't tried it out on the stairs, since I use my hand-held Dirt Devil for that chore. As you might guess, sometimes I have to cover an area densely covered with hair 2 or 3 times before all of the debris is lifted; but this would be true for any standard vacuum, I'm sure. I give this particular vacuum high ratings, not only for its ability to clean up pet hair, but for the ease in which it removes the offending dander & hair.

You did not leave a lot of information. I have not tried it on a cat but had a cat one time that would get all sorts of balls of hair. I found if one worked the clipper blade all the way to the skin and got under the clots it worked fine. going through the thick wads of hair was not a smooth cut.

It does a very good job picking up pet hair on floors and rugs in upright mode. The power hand tool does a good job on upholstery, but it takes some practice and more than one pass with my cat's hair. Make sure to clean the dirt cup and the cyclonic filter regularly though.

I have three cats on lone haired---It does a real good job of bringing the hair to the top and in piles.. I then can easily pick them up---It keeps my carpet looking cvlean and the vacuum easier to maintain.

we have the pet and allergy unit and it works great on animal hair. We have cats and we're always surprised at the amount of hair it picks up

I can only answer this by saying that I have a Himalayan cat and I have slightly above shoulder length hair, my other cat is a domestic short hair. Given this situation I don't have problems with needing to cut the hair off the beater brush more than once a month or less and I vac approximately 2-3 times a week.

Yes... I have a Husky that blows her coat twice a year... the Cat and Dog has so much power it can sometimes pick up hair so fast it clogs... which is easy to fix... the extra power means the wand works great, too.

We have 2 long haired cats and do not have any problems with hair getting stuck. The vacuum is awesome!

I have 5 cats and wall to wall carpet. I've also had this vacuum for just over 2 years and it has been fantastic at coping with the cat hair on the carpet as well as the furniture. It has never clogged up with hair like so many other vacuum cleaners do. I've lost count of how many vacuums I've tried and then rejected in the last 10 years because they just couldn't cut it with cat hair. I highly recommend this vacuum for anyone with pets.

Yes it works very well, I have five dogs and a cat but you will need to get a better upholstery tool. I bought a kit on Amazon but I can't find it now. This might be it "Miele Upholstery-M Vacuum Cleaners Hoses, Wands, Tools ". Here is the complete link Miele Upholstery-M Vacuum Cleaners Hoses, Wands, Tools Hope this helps and good luck.

I have two german shepherds and a cat, they are one of the reasons I selected this vacuum. It does an excellent job with pet hair.

I have 3 cats and a dog...the DC65 multi floor picks up pet hair fabulously!...amazing..I also use a hair remover brush thingy (lol) for blankets and furniture...$5 compared to the pet attachment..

Yes, it picks up cat hair very well (I have 2 long hair cats). The only down side is that I have to clean out the brush and the vacuum cup often. I think it's worth it because it makes easy work of doing fast daily clean-ups.

I have two cats and a dog. It does attract some hair but is easily removed with a damp washcloth or lint brush.

I (a long-hair human) have a a very furry cat, a long-hair chihuahua, and a long-hair human child. I am very pleased with how well it did getting all the hair out of the carpet. I was sure to clean out the brush when I was done, though.
