Aww shucks

​@@vacuumnerdsI stick to my Kirby heritage, after all it's not made of 99% plastic,

@@tommynygaardjensen8398 very cool

It’s pretty hard to rub it in I’ve found. It just rolls around on the top of the carpet. It’s difficult to simulate how it gets into furniture and carpet from pets

@@vacuumnerds ah ok thanks for explaining! And yeah I don't know what it is about my dogs hair but it just sticks and gets really into my carpets (they're all short strand carpets, can't imagine how'd it'd be for plush carpets 😅)

I've discovered that short pet hair works into carpet and upholstery fibers easier than long fluffy pet hair. They're little needles of sorts. We're replacing our 10 year old Shark Rocket (plug in) that has served us well but the canister has developed small holes (1/4-1/2"). I have to say I'm a bit disappointed that you didn't test the Shark Stratos with TruePet upgrade in this video. @@vacuumnerds

@@vacuumnerds It makes sense that it's hard to simulate, but god it would be helpful. I've just caved and been using carpet rakes because none of my vacuums seem to understand that the hair is NOT the carpet, no matter how recently I've vacuumed.

@@genevievec.8002 I've gone as far as using my cat brush on my area rug so that I could then use my vacuum to pick it up. The problem is, it takes me a 1/2 hour to vacuum a relatively small area rug.

Thanks for the comment. I'm going to do a video on the Roborock S7 Ultra shortly.

Trying to add a bit of humor to some household tech!

Appreciate your comment. The Miele you mentioned is $1400 which is out of reach for the average person. As we purchase the vacuums we test; we can’t buy and test everything we’d like. We’re not part of a larger media company, it’s just me and an editor at the moment.

@@vacuumnerds interesting. In Europe, the Miele C3 Cat & Dog with the Turbo brush is around 400 Euros (the Electrobrush is another 200 Euros if you buy it separately, but right now it seems out of stock), while the Dyson V11 is around 600 Euros.

I just came back to this review to see if they had tested a Mielle. I'm debating between a Dyson, Mielle and Sebo at the moment - but I want a good review before deciding since they are all very expensive. I figure at this point though, I'm better off buying a $500-1000 vacuum than trying cheap one after cheap one and still needing to take my carpet (I mean that, I have 2 carpet 'rakes' because my vacuums cannot handle it, even though one is decently expensive and for pets.

​@@genevievec.8002 we eventually bought a Sebo Airbelt E3 Premium and, while it is a bit heavy to do the power head, it's by far the best vacuum we've ever had. We walk barefoot around the house and you can actually feel the difference between vacuuming with the Dyson V12 Slim and the Sebo even though both technically come with a power head: the parquet feels mopped, not just vacuumed, and the carpets feel fluffy. Also, the Dyson simply can't pick up some of the dog hair since labradors have shorter hair which gets embedded into the carpet, but there are no problems with the Sebo.

Haha

Appreciate the comment. We have more cordless vacuum reviews coming.

Great suggestion. thanks!

I have 2 very fluffy cats and I vacuum almost every day with my Dyson. I clean the filter every 3-4 weeks. Perhaps you've got way more pet hair than I do, but I have not found my V10, V11 or V15 clogs on pet hair. Perhaps a corded vacuum might better in your situation? I appreciate the comment.

My goodness, calm down. You could have easily said "pet hair that is imbedded in carpet and apolstry is much harder to get out, so I would recommend going to a house that has more material for the hair to get stuck in for testing". Instead now we all read what you said and think "not sure I'm going to listen to someone who gets this intense over such a minor thing..."

I said it the way I said it... listen or don't.@@LoyalDW

I agree a house of pet hair is the true test

​@@CaritaXoXo Karen needs a massage and a glass of wine. And possibly some pills. I said it.

Thank you for the sub! I see you do asmr style videoe?

@@vacuumnerds yes I do. Keep up the amazing work. Your channel is incredible 🙂

I’ve always considered these videos to be in the ASMR / hypnotic style.

Welcome

Have you considered a canister vac like the Kenmore 600 series? I had an older one for 20 years, and I've been testing this new one for the last few days. Yes, it's 20lbs, but you only have to lift the wand and brushroll as you move around amzn.to/3snxrnw

Dyson changes things from time to time. The one in the video should be at this link amzn.to/42BzsKh

It’s not great on shag. You need to pull it rather than push it. The Shark has a better head for that and the Tineco Pure One S15 is good on longer carpet as well.

Answered from my other channel by accident

Yes, absolutely. I do every day actually. My cats shed SO much, and my house is all hardwoood.

⁠thank you, I appreciate the quick reply

No Samsun cordless yet, but I'll review one this year when the new models are out

V11 head is anti tangle so it’s much better, but every vac gets tripped up on 14” rave hair

⁠@@vacuumnerds**holds a tape measure from my scalp to the ends of my hair** 😓😣The Shark seems to be notorious for having inaccessible brush rolls locked in their own little cage. Plus their horror stories of short longevity. I have a screwdriver out every time I use the central vac on carpet & the whole ordeal is exhausting esp with chronic illnesses. I know asking for unpaid advice is very rude. I wish I was able to support your channel. So feel free to move on to your next task! If you had to choose a lightweight vacuum to pick up human length rave hair 💇🏼‍♀️ off carpet with the *least *amount of tangle (and if it does, has an easily removable brushroll so I can throw the screwdriver into a river) what would come to mind? Moving house within the year so won’t have the central vac. But I’m worried to put in a Dyson V10 investment if it’ll fail me within 2 years. So I looked at the V8 which has the hair screw tool & detangling Motorbar but I was worried the low setting would be too weak on carpet to sufficiently pick up any hair. Not many channels do the rave hair tests or show the accessibility of brushroll removal. Tbh I’ve been obsessing over vacuum specs since JUNE, trying to not screw it up. Since then I’ve been to one showroom to test out vacuums (half of which weren’t even plugged in) and haven’t been well enough to go out again to another store. I saw a pic of a v10 with major hair wrap on carpet with 11 inch hair & it’s spooked me. (My mum & I are having a lot of hair fall out due to continual high stress) Am I looking in the wrong direction? I’m worried about trying a vacuum & have wasted the money if it immediately tangled & can’t return it. I was looking at bagless to avoid the ongoing costs but with dogs & allergies I’m open minded. Prefer cordless but not critical, it just can’t be 4kg or something because my fatigue can’t handle it. P.S. Massive fan of the Mega Mess Tests! 🎉😅

It's a solid vac for the money, and it does fine on pet hair - however, it's not anti-tangle, so you'll need to clean out the brushroll every now and then. We did a comparison video with it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a7N3f9ycl7ano3U.html

We will test it soon

@@vacuumnerds that's great!! I need to buy a vacuum in the next week or two, crossing my fingers the review will be out by then. 😉 Thanks for your reply!

I prefer and use the Dyson daily. However a friend of mine has a V12 and she prefers a corded Shark. Go figure.

Unfortunately most vacuums nowadays are *relatively* inexpensive and hard to repair. I have been extremely happy with Dyson products. I've used them for years without issue. They are more expensive, but they seem to be well built and there is 3rd party ecosystem around them.

There are a lot of new robots coming out this year, so once they are released, we can can do a comparison.

I’ll test it soonish

We have the fluffaroos here!

That’s a good idea

We decided three Sharks on one list is plenty. The Stratos is a very good vacuum though and we've reviewed it several times.

@@vacuumnerds I noticed your videos about vacuums quite a long time ago and I have been using shark vacuums for years. My favourite is the detective pro because of the design, looking and ease of use but Stratos is definitely the best shark cordless stick vacuum and the best one in the market if not it should be one of the best and I have used apex pro which isn’t even comparable with stratos. I think it’s definitely a mistake to not put stratos in the list, 3 of shark is many but stratos easily take any of these spots.

The Dirt Devil Pet Pro isn't made anymore

Thank you! I fixed it

I'll include some in the future. It's difficult to include every possible vacuum.

A few people have mentioned this

That’s a bummer to hear. What about getting it repaired?

I'd try customer support at Shark.

I can't tell if you're serious or not. KZfaq allows you to adjust playback speed btw

Llii

That’s fair. I people comment this sometimes. Mine have been fine over about 2 years so far

Appreciate the feedback!

Sorry if I came off rude, I'd just woken up :)@@vacuumnerds

@@vacuumnerds This video thoroughly explains the problem with Shark kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Ztt1lNdpnprdp4U.html&ab_channel=VacuumsRUs

dyson isn't much better. over engineered over rated and some models need a shop for usual maintenance

Agreed @@dh8264
