Question:

Are a vacuum cleaners stupid? I have two dogs that come in during the harsh winter months and they shed like?

crazy. Although I empty my bags or canister frequently, my vacuums only seem to last a few months. I just got a Dirt Devil about 2 months ago and its suction is just horrible now. Can anyone recommend a vacuum for under $500 that will last? Thank you.

Answer:

check the filters;look for clogs under the floor plate and the hose. We have dogs and had the same problem, ended up buying a Rain-Bow vacuum, its more than $500,but it is also bagless. It traps the dirt in a water filled container below the unit. It is emptied each time you use it. The water also keeps the dust from being pushed back into the air. We have had this for 3 years and still love it. They are made by a company in Mi.
well i have several canister vacumes that work great kenmore's, but for the dog hair i use a small 5 gallon shop vac so that my vacumes wont smell like dog or get clogged.. try a small shop vac works great!!!! and cheap
Dirt Devil vacuums just seem to be low quality. I have never liked those. Kenmore makes a great vacuum. The ones that I have had are very high quality, last a long time, and the price is very reasonable.
I okorder ). I highly reccommend it .
Look, I had the same problem as you. I bought a Kirby vacuum and I am making payments on it. Now I had added the cost of the vacuums together and it was worth getting the Kirby because it come with a warranty that you can't beat. If it breaks they will fix it and if they can't fix it, I get a new one. I know it is more money than you intended on spending, it was for me to but it is a life saver. It also comes with a shampoo attachment that gets out all the old pet stains so I also saved money on replacing my carpet too.
