Cordless vacuum for dog hair

6 replies

tryinghardtostaycalm · 09/09/2025 10:15

Any recommendations for a good cordless vacuum that can cope with dog (Labrador) hair? We used to have a Dyson which worked well but the battery life was rubbish (maybe better in new ones?). We then bought a Bosch which has great battery life, but the tube keeps getting blocked by clumps of dog hair.

Would love some recommendations! Mix of carpet and laminate floor.

Owner of two large dogs. I go round each day with a cordless shark without the foot attachment to grab any big “tumbleweeds” that have formed. But for a good clean (twice a week) it has to be corded and bagged - either Henry or Sebo

I’ve got a Henry Quick pet which I have found brilliant with 2 dogs

Thanks - we do have a Henry in the loft so will get it down to give everything a thorough clean

I looked at this online but was worried about how quickly the pods would fill up, as the canister doesn't seem that big. I currently have a Dyson cordless stick and it fills up fast even with one small dog. If I could ask, how often do you vacuum, and how often do you need to change the pod?

@SparklyGlitterballs it seems to compact the hair very well so the pods last a long time. I use it several times a week to give a quick run over and the last pod lasted about 6 weeks. I also have a robot vacuum and a Miele cylinder but use the Henry the most and it picks up really well especially on the boosted setting
