I just received my Vertex 3 days ago and I have used it since. We have a cat who sheds and 2 girls with long curly hair in our home. This is the first vacuum we have had that has not had hair wrapped around the roller. This is contraption picks up everything. We have linoleum throughout the house and live in the country so dust is everywhere. The dust bin gets full with hair and dust I normally would see fly around while trying to sweep. No problems so far. It saves me from allergies and flying dust.
