Any pet owners out there...how bad does it collect cat/dog hair? I heard microfiber is the best to deal with pet hair.

it would depend on the dog/cat. We have a min schnauzer and they don't shed much. We have no problem with pet hair with the comforter

I have two Rottweilers and a Doberman. It has not collected hair as bad as others and the rotties really shed

I am a pet owner for sure...5 dogs, 9 cats, a couple of the cats and a 2-3 of the dogs will get in bed often. It sheds the hair well, and washes out clean...I would say it does deal with pet hair very well...one of our dogs is a chow shepherd mix and sheds a lot...the others are beagles who don't shed a lot...one of the beagles loves to sleep with us, and she likes to dig a spot before she lays down...the microfiber stands up well to that also. I must say that overall, I am really happy with this comforter, and the real authority, my wife, was skeptical when I bought it, but has remarked several times what a great comforter it is, especially given what we paid for it. Stands up to frequent washing too...and we were skeptical about its warmth in the winter, but found it to be sufficient (we live in Indiana...didn't have a real bad winter last year). Overall a very good product...

My long hair white dog leaves a lot of hair on it. No worse or better than any other bed spread I've had though.

In my experience, it works well for picking up pet hair from the hardwood and tile floors, and from the suede couch fabric...I tried it on my area rug out of curiosity and it didn't do very well. My biggest complaint, though, is in emptying the canister. You have to take the filter out and apart (the filter has 2 parts) to get the pet hair unstuck, and you have to use your fingers to get it out. I actually might return this dust buster because of this. I'm really disappointed, because I LOVE everything else about it except the emptying part with the pet hair.

I have a shedding dog as well. It will pick up the hair but you may have to empty the bin depending on how big of an area you are setting the roomba in

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.

It works great on pet hair! I have 2 indoor-outdoor cats. The Hoover Platinum vacuum system is very effective at cleaning up fur, dander, and any debris the cats bring in from outside. The bags collect everything and seal it inside. The upright vacuum cleans up pet hair from the carpets and hard floors. The canister vacuum cleans upholstery and cleans up corners, baseboard, all those hard-to-get-at spots. These vacuums are lightweight, easy to use, and do an excellent job.

I don't have a cat, but I do have a dog. I think it does a good job of picking up what the vacuum cleaner misses. But I never use this machine without vacuuming first. I think that is the reasonable first step to carpet cleaning.;-)

We do not have a cat so don't know if it will pick up cat hair. We did have a Lab with a heavy coat and it did a good job as long as you vacumn before you use the rug shampoo. We do not have a cat so cannot answer the part of the question re cat hair. We did have a Black Lab with a heavy undercoat and the cleaner did a good job as long as you vacumn before you use this machine. We were actually pleasantly surprised as to how well it cleaned our rug which is a light colored Berber.

I think Roomba does an exceptional job of cleaning up my dog's hair. I run it most in the rooms that she spends time in. Roomba finds hair that I can't even see. It's better to run it more often than less. My longer hair gets wound up on the brush, but my dog's shorter hair goes right into the bin and is easily emptied.

I have a cat and she has a lot of hair. You find her hair on the furniture, the beds, the floor...all over the house. This has worked great for picking up her hair. The only thing is that the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser´s charge doesn´t last long. You have to charge it every 15 minutes. I am very happy with it.

I'm not sure if another unit is better, but I have a microfiber sectional, and it works AMAZINGLY on it! Since that front part can flip from the rougher swirly part to the more gentle brush, that helps too. I do have to clean that mini brush part a bit, since it collects my cat hair a lot, but there has been zero damage to the fabric!

I don't have pets, but i sure have enough of my own hair that i shed :((I would say YES this small little vac will do the job of pet hairs. it is a strong suction.. hope this helps.

I have four cats (including two with long hair) but I have never seen it pick up much cat hair. I find some cat hair on the pre-filter, but not a lot. It does a lot better with dust.

It's not designed to collect hair like a traditional brush. It's just supposed to cut the undercoat and pull it away. I always brush my dogs outside or in the garage because the hair goes flying everywhere.

Don't have a cat, but it does pick up dog hair very well, if that's any help.

It does a pretty good job on pet hair. We have 3 cats and a dog inside. The dog's hair tends to be coarse and the vac doesn't pick it up quite as well as I'd like, but then neither does my expensive Oreck. The Hoover does do a good job on the dust-bunny type little poofs of cat hair (but performs very poorly on cat litter). That said, l still give this vac an overall very good rating.

I don't have pets, but I doubt it. If you are talking about removing pet fur from a pile carpet, you may need something along the lines of a Kirby or Dyson. When we got our Kirby years ago, it was picking up dog fur from the carpet & we don't have a dog. It was from the previous owner. Also remember, vacuums always work better when they are new. You may get something that will pick it up when it is new, but after a while not quite do it. Good luck.

I have no pets now,however; I taught my cats and a cocker spaniel to let me vacuum THEM. Scared at first, but then they loved it (especially during the high- shedding time of the year). I lost these pets long before I got the air machine. I would say that you could just use a hand held vac up to the front cover of it to clean it off. The filters are inside the box and should no be affected by the hair. I hope this helps
