    Vacuums

    Just curious what other dog people's favorite vacuum is. Mine is the kenmore canister (24914 is the model number) it's number 1 in the consumer reports, and i can see why! I absolutely love mine! If i had to have something else though, i would get a dyson!

    My dogs don't shed!!!  But, they do track stuff in from the yard and the teens and hubby are heck on a house.  I have central vacuum in the house, it's grand.  I also own a Sears Kenmore Progressive Canister, probably the best canister I've ever owned.  My niece got one of the yellow Dysons for a wedding gift and she's not very happy with it for some reason.

    I have a Dyson as well and I absolutely LOVE it!  I can't imagine anyone being unhappy with it - it does such a GREAT job.  Slick is blowing his coat at the moment and I am literally vacuuming every other day (maxing out the fill tank thing).  It never clogs, never slows down and does the job very fast.  I highly recommend it to anyone with a dog.

    I have to go with Patty & Christine - the purple Dyson Animal!  You wouldn't believe the amount of hair it picks up.

    I also have a Dyson. I only vacuum about once a week, but I get more than 3-4 canisters full just downstairs. Norwegian Elkhounds shed year round and they have a TON of hair.

    we have some kind of kenmore upright vac (not sure of the model or anything). it seemed to work really well for a while, but now it doesnt suck ... literally. it will get up some stuff, but doesnt seem to clean as well as i would like. plus the hose for the attachments barely sucks at all now.

    I have a Dyson Full Kit and I LOVE it. It sucks up so much hair, dust and stuff! We only have 3 carpeted bedrooms and two area rugs. The Dyson gets up so much stuff that I have to empty the cannister about 3 times. You wouldn't believe all the fine dander, dust particulate matter that it gets up. I was totally shocked at what it gets up. Definitely worth the money!

    I think it is the greatest vacuum EVER!
     
    I have had it for about 1.5 years now and the performance is unreal.  It operates like a commercial vac at a great price.  I actually enjoy vacuuming with it.
     
    It is the best vac on pet hair I have ever come across.

    Cyclefiend2000, take your vac apart and see if the entrance to the bag is clogged. It MIGHT help abd is a chepa fix!

    We have an Oreck that is eight years old.I figure we will need to replace it in ac puple of years.  We have a good sized house to keep up sn it gets used a lot.

    That is a good idea, lorib.  Mine got clogged a few times...that's how I learned that some things should not be vacced up (like chewed up sticks...grin).  Also, the hose might be clogged with the same stuff.  I took the wet-dry vac, reversed the air flow, and blew the clog out of the hose.
