I haven’t had much luck over the years and simply cannot afford to buy another that doesn’t suit our needs. It would have to deal with dust from a real fire, a dog that casts constantly, and a couple of children with very long hair, oh and some shaggy rugs too. I’m thinking more an upright but maybe a Henry or equivalent? I don’t have family to ask for recommendations so thought I’d post here. Thanks.

I have a Miele C3 which I thought was superb until we got the Shark (it's a cordless). We only bought the Shark because I can't use the Miele as my shoulder joints pop out.

We have a Newfoundland dog, two cats, and everyone in this house has a lot of hair. The Shark does an excellent job. You do have to stay on top of making sure filters and foot are clear, but I love my Shark.

Never a Dyson. They're so dramatic

I have an upright shark which I was really pleased with until I won a Miele C3 blizzard (I think), which has blown every other vacuum cleaner I have ever used out of the water. Henry, Dysons, the lot. I never use the shark now.
