I have two dogs so I have gone through multiple vacuums that claim to work for pet hair but I must admit the Shark Rotator Pet is a vacuum that works wonders. It’s light and flexible but powerful. I love how it works both on my carpet and my hardwood floor. The ability to empty the canister without getting your hands dirty is awesome. The allergen-sealed system seems to keep the odor down. I’m not sure how that works because I’m just starting to use the vacuum but if it keeps odors in I’m all for it. But I love this vacuum. So recommend!
