How does this machine do removing pet hair from carpet and furniture?

When it worked it was ok. Nothing outstanding, but I wasn't embarrassed to have people in my home. That lasted a couple of weeks.

I have 2 Golden Retrievers, and 4 cats. The attachment that came with the pet version does a great job removing hair from furniture. It has no problem getting hair off the carpet. The canister does fill up quickly but so far I have saved a lot of money not buying vacuum bags. I used to have to clean the beater bar often with my old Hoover. For some reason this one doesn't get the hair tangled around it.

I bought this vacuum solely for the bedrooms and upper hallway so, I do not have any heavy dog hair upstairs but, this vacuum cleans up what I do have very well. For the money, it's a great buy!

It's fantastic at removing pet hair!! The first time I used it I had to empty the canister a few times because of all the dog hair it picked up and I had been vacuuming on a regular basis!! It's fantastic!!

I've had this vacuum since my yellow lab was a pup. It did okay with her fine, soft puppy fur but does very well with her adult fur. I vacuum my five room home almost daily and it has held up well. My husband does have to spray out the filter every couple months.

I don't like the attachments. The way they are made doesn't make for a very thorough cleaning job.

Our dustbuster does a very good job picking up dirt and pet hair off our hard wood floors. As far as our couches and rugs go, it lacks the power needed for the pet hair .removal

I have a cat and it does not eliminate pet hair in the house, it catches some but not all. It sucks air so if the pet hair is not directly behind the machine it won't pick it up.

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.

this machine does pick up with no problem - we have dogs and a cat and always shed - we love this Bissell - works very well and well worth the money

There are two settings on the vacuum head, one setting sits lower to the ground. Our home has wood floors, tiled floors, standard carpet, and a low-pile area rug, and this vacuum works on all the surfaces. Additionally, if I slide open a suction cover on the handle (so the suction is less powerful), I can use it on my leather sofa (dog hair!), which is great. This vacuum is a very nice machine.

No. But it is fabulous for getting up pet hair. Doesn't work well on carpet.

I don't have carpeting at my home just hardwood floors, but it does pick up everything on the couch. Everything includes; crumbs, dog hair, dust, and dog bone residue.

I shed A TON of hair...I am very similar to a dog! I was surprised with how well this lightweight vacuum was able to pick up my hair. So yes, it does definitely pick up hair from carpets.

Cat hairs: terrific. I have two cats and it was able to get a bunch off from carpet about 3 hours after I had vacuumed with my old vacuum. Best vacuum I have ever had for hairs. It does okay on my two rooms that have vinyl. One is my bathroom and it picks up all the litter around the litter pan. The brush attachment works well on hairs on furniture. There is nothing I dislike about this vacuum. The only drawback is that it is a little heavy, but it is still very easy to push. Hopes this helps.

It is wonderful on carpet, it picks up absolutely everything and there won't be a dog hair left. I swear by this vacuum. You won't regret it.

It picked up everything: hair, carpet fibers, kitty litter, etc. IT doesn't have a beater brush, the red thing you see is a rubberized "comb" The rubber nibs attract the hair and pull it up, then the vac sucks it in. There was so much embedded hair in my stairs that they looked dirty. A few swipes and I had 1" high piles of hair at the edge of the stair, which then vacuumed right up.

It does not work well on carpet, only hardwood floors. We don't have a pet but I would guess that it would not pick up pet hair on carpet.

I don't know the exact mechanics of why it's good at picking up pet hair, but it really is. It does have a lot of suction for a small lightweight machine.

It does it will actually pick up hair and dirt from almost anything but is the best for furniture, it has this awesome rolling brush inside that you will love :-)

Pro's: it does all the work. Con's: you have to empty it, it gets stuck on floor jams and rugs, it's ok picking up pet fur, but fur gets traped in brushes and tends to leave clumps of fur on the floor.

First, the Bissell is a very powerful vacuum and the attachment for the pet hair has a rubberized head with short protruding nubs and while rubbing on the pet hair it will loosen from the fabric and at the same time will suck the pet hair into it's belly...LOL. This is a great little powerhouse! S. Sweet
