Cordless vacuum

[StillInMyPJJs]

Can anyone recommend a really good cordless vacuum that works well on carpets, especially with pets?

I’m looking for something with powerful suction that picks up pet hair easily, has a decent battery life

I have a corded Shark, but find it very heavy and cumbersome

Thanks

I've got a cordless Henry. It's great and copes well with dog hair

ww are looking too at the moment. The cost difference is vast. We’ve been looking at a shark and a Bosch both around £500 make. Went to curry’s and they were useless so we’ll have to buy online I think and take a chance.

I have a shark cordless and the Henry cordless. Both absolutely excellent. I'd probably go for the Henry if I were you because my super picky cleaning lady who hates cordless vacs loves it.

This is the thread I've been hoping for 😀 We have an old Dyson which needs replacing and I hate trying to do the stairs with it. No pets here but a DD who sews and trails cotton threads around the house so also need a decent vacuum cleaner. What's so good about the Henry please @Buzzer3555 and @leli? Is the charge as good as the manufacturer claims it is?

Don’t get a Dyson. I have one and they only ever have half of the spare parts regularly needed in stock (for months at a time). I’m a bit suspicious that they withdrew them when they have new models. And I have a gen5 detect, so hardly ancient.

Very strong suction and lots of tools. Easy charge with a wall plug and cord. I just like it but I do love the Shark too - also excellent - both so much better than my Dyson which is a temperamental fairy!

I have a dyson v6 animal which though fairly old still works fabulously well and is much lighter than my mother in laws cordless shark.

Another one for the Henry cordless pet version. I bought one a few weeks ago. We have a Parsons’ Russell who sheds hair everywhere. I’ve thrown out a couple of unsalvageable hoovers in the last few years because no matter how diligent, they always clog.

The thing I love about the Henry is that it has an easily inserted collection bag which makes emptying much easier and seems to compact the hair down tightly resulting in much less loose hair in the moving parts. It’s really well designed and every part is accessible. I can even run water through the cylinder and the attachments all come easily apart for cleaning. The suction is by far the best I’ve had and it goes right up to the edge. It’s a little heavier than the Dyson but I think it does a far better job. The charge lasts ages too.
