Any pet owner with a dog or cat that sheds hair all over their home will appreciate the value of a good pet vacuum. Pet fur’s ability to get embedded in upholstery, carpets and rugs is legendary, so a vacuum designed specifically for dislodging and removing this fur is essential.

Some of our customers ask us, “What is a pet vacuum cleaner?” So, let’s check out some of the important features to look for in a quality pet hair vacuum.

This is a vacuum that is designed with pets in mind, because regular vacuums don’t always remove embedded pet hair from deep pile carpets. This means you’ll often need a pet vacuum cleaner with a powerful motor and brushes or a power head designed to loosen the embedded fur and efficiently remove it from carpets.

The best vacuum for pet hair in NZ will depend on whether you want a bagged, bagless or upright cleaner. We’ve scoured the Godfreys inventory and compiled our recommendations for all three of these categories.
