Absolutely love 'the beast' as I call it. I've had dogs and cats my entire life and this is one of the best vacuums that I have found to include a much higher priced one. It does an amazing job getting not only the cat and dog fur but also any dust that is brought in from outside. I vacuum every day and being able to take apart the canister and clean the inside is very easy and a great idea. The only minor frustration I have is the wheels extend slightly at the sides and tend to catch on corners otherwise I'm 100% satisfied. Well done Bissel!
