Hi there! I have two dogs, 14 months and 3 months old...and I had a bissell steampro for a while, and it just didn't have very good suction, it seemed to dump the water on the carpet, but not suck it out as well. I just this weekend bought a Hoover Dual V Steam cleaner, and it is TO DIE FOR! I just love it! You can rinse your carpets after you are done shampooing, and when my furry little friend who isn't totally potty trained yet has an accident, I can suck the pee-pee right up first, and then add soap and water to flush it out! It's fantastic! I won't ever go back to the bissell, I love my Hoover Dual V! Right where they come in from the backyard there is always a black mark from dirty paws and dirty hubbie's feet, and it got that awful stain out which was there for a long time...I would definitely recommend it to your for your pets.

It works great on pet hair! I have 2 indoor-outdoor cats. The Hoover Platinum vacuum system is very effective at cleaning up fur, dander, and any debris the cats bring in from outside. The bags collect everything and seal it inside. The upright vacuum cleans up pet hair from the carpets and hard floors. The canister vacuum cleans upholstery and cleans up corners, baseboard, all those hard-to-get-at spots. These vacuums are lightweight, easy to use, and do an excellent job.

I would like to know if you decided to buy one and which model you bought if you bought any. I want to buy a good deep cleaner but I can not decide which model to buy. Thank you in andvace for your response.

I'd also like to know about the cat "Yak" as we call it. Since no one has answered the first poster I guess I'll just have to get the vacuum and give it a try. Can't be any worse than cleaning it by hand and hopefully it will be better.

I was told by a sales person at Kohl's NOT to buy a Bissell. She said they usually don't last more than a year. She recommended a Hoover for durability and cleaning power. Just my 2 cents worth.

This cleaner is very powerful for a lightweight unit. I feel it did an excellent job of removing dirt from deep down in my carpet. I don't have pets but feel it would pick up whatever is in the carpet. Good luck!

Hoover is great for quick pick ups only. Don't even think about it if you have pet hair. I returned it right away.

This machine can work for you. I have 4 dogs! If there's an accident, the first thing I do is detach the hose a suck up the mess. Next, I spray Spotshot on the spot & let it sit for 1 minute & then use the machine to suck that out of the carpet too. Third step is to reattach the hose & let Spotbot do the cleaning for you. I have found that for urine, it does work best on the set-in stain setting. After cleaning, I always use Nature's Miracle on the area so the dogs don't return to the same spot. Works like a charm!

Mr. Cook I can promise you, the Dyson DC39 Animal Canister vacuum will handle any cleaning job. I can't speak about a long shag carpet, as I have a short shag, but I couldn't believe how strong it was. I have a short haired dog about the size of a Jack Russel, who sheds hair like you would not believe. Within a day, after vacuuming on the hard surface part of my house, I have balls of fur as big as a tennis ball all around the edges of the hall, and close to the edge of the couch. I just got my DC39 on 5/10/12, but I am one happy camper, I can tell you. The carpet in the bed room was just washed with an expensive carpet shampoo machine that I bought a while back. The shampoo machine pulled a ton of hair out of the carpet even after I had vacuumed it just before running the shampoo on it. I had just shampooed it again just a couple of days before the DC39 came in. The amount of fur that it pulled out of that supposedly sparking clean carpet, was astounding. Also in the same room I have a big king size bed that the regular vacuum couldn't get under. After looking at the amount of hair from the rest of the room, and emptying the canister, I thought about pushing the suction head under the bed as it is flat as a pancake, and can get under nearly everything. Again it filled the canister up. The handle has a button on it the lets you stop the brush from turning when you are on a hard surface. I suppose that's to make the brush last and not wear out on the hard floor. The brush turned so fast on the short shag that you could feel the vibration of it really strong as you worked with it. The head is almost weightless, but it makes the carpet stand up as though it has a lot more weight to it. I recommend it to anyone. Good luck.

It does a pretty good job on pet hair. We have 3 cats and a dog inside. The dog's hair tends to be coarse and the vac doesn't pick it up quite as well as I'd like, but then neither does my expensive Oreck. The Hoover does do a good job on the dust-bunny type little poofs of cat hair (but performs very poorly on cat litter). That said, l still give this vac an overall very good rating.

Hi Karla. I'm Diane (Edward's wife) and I'm the one who purchased and uses the machine. I have a fair amount of carpet, with a number of different piles, in my home. I have owned three different carpet cleaning machines over the years. I love this machine. I much prefer the roller brushes (as opposed to the spinning scrubbers on my prior Hoover machine). I checked Bissell's website to compare the two models and refresh my memory. I bought the 47A2 based on the following: 47A2 has a bigger tank (1.25 gallons compared to 1 gallon); 47A2 has dual power brushes with 10 cleaning rows ( compared to 8852's one power brush with 6 cleaning rows). I think 47A2 is a bit lighter. I thought my prior Hoover was decent, but when I took the 47A2 for a test drive on my "two dog" carpet, I was impressed. It cleaned beautifully and it really "sucks". My carpet dried very quickly. Hopes this helps.

Have not used the Hoover Max Extract All terrain. I purchased the Hoover Steam Vac Dual V in November 2012 . It is amazing the sucess that we have had with it.Red wine was spilled on top of Icy Hot (don't ask) and it was a pretty bad stain on an old carpet and had been there for 3 months. It took almost all of the stain out and the carpet looked wonderful. I agree that you will be happy with either model.

Now I'm confused. Some of you are saying the Bissell 3920 is the best vacuum ever while others are saying it's the worst. I'm not worried about the bulkiness or noise. My main concern is a strong suction effect to lift deep-down dirt and pet hair.

Instructions for appliances and such are usually on line (I bought a used bread machine and was able to print out the instruction manual). Go to the internet and type in "Hoover Quick and Light Carpet Cleaner manual and instructions" and I'll bet you find it. You could also go to the official site for Hoover if that doesn't work. Good luck!

I don't have a cat, but I do have a dog. I think it does a good job of picking up what the vacuum cleaner misses. But I never use this machine without vacuuming first. I think that is the reasonable first step to carpet cleaning.;-)

I have the Roomba Discovery for Pets and it is awesome. I have a husky (need I say more) and two cats. My floors are hardwood, tile, carpet and rugs, it works great on all of them. After the big clean it has been just routine maintenance. I use it daily. It has never been overwhelmed by the hair even at the beginning.
