The Hoover Power Drive Swivel XL Pet gets all the hair, dander, and deep down dirt out of my carpet better than my old Shark ever did. The best part is, it is so easy to operate that my 4-year-old grandson can vacuum with it. It is a nice, light model with all the attachments I need to get into every nook and cranny. In a house with dogs, cats, and children, this vacuum cleans it all. I can get all the dog and cat hair off the sofa and chairs, and the family doesn't have to lint roll their shirts after sitting. This vacuum does it all, and there is no place I can't get to with it between the great swivel head and attachments.
