Microfiber upholstery and dog hair? Anyone used this vac with success on microfiber upholstery to remove pet hair?

It picks up dog hair in one pass for me. These are hairs that a brush less nozzle did not even touch.

Not my microfiber couch! Check the other reviews - some people have the brush stop spinning on microfiber couches. Just like me. It doesn't get all the hairs.

Mine came with 2 cleanable 'lint brushes' that I use on my sofa to remove pet hair. Yes, they do work. As I have 2 dogs, I use my swivel sweeper on the living room carpet daily as a quick picker upper.

The Everholder FURemover Broom may be the solution. I have several dogs and cats and deal with lots of hair and litter. I use this broom every day and it works better than any other broom I've ever tried. It's sturdy and hair and litter doesn't fly around when you're sweeping. Definitely worth a try.

I love this vacuum--it really lifts up/off the pet hair. It is also the quietest vac. I have used. We have new carpet upstairs & it does a wonderful job. I'm not sure how dense your carpet is but our new carpet is very plush but does not have long fibers. I recently had surgery & can use this vac. while in the recovery mode. Not hard to push. My only negative is the hose for the tools is too short. I'm only 5'1" & can't reach the tops of doors or other higher places w/ the appropriate attachments. I called the co. & they said I could add additional wands but it would reduce the suction...so I haven't done that. I love this vacuum--it really lifts up/off the pet hair.

It is very good at getting it out of the carpet when you're using it in its regular upright position. When you use the hose attachment it doesn't have a Roller on the end of the attachment so I don't imagine it would be very effective on furniture. To remove hair from furniture you have to have the roller brush. For the carpet itself, it is extremely effective getting hair and dust and dirt out of the rug. I have pets and kids and it does a great job. Very strong suction. The hose clogs easily though if you are picking up big chunks of stuff so make sure you pick those up before you vacuum.

I use Scotch-Brite inside the house for picking up lint. I haven't tried it on pet hair but it should work.

Keep looking. I have a corgi and her hair just fixes itself on upholstery. The pet hair remover works no better than anything else I have tried. Maybe your dog's fur or hair would remove easier than my dog's. Sorry

I don't think it would be effective. The suction is pretty weak as it only picks up loose hairs from non-fabric surfaces. It's good for quick pet hair picks up when you're expecting company, etc.

Absolutely. I have 2 dogs and 1 inside cat. Picks up their hair from title floor , throw rugs, and carpet. Wouldn't use it for deep down carpet vacuuming but gets the surface stuff just fine. Also just finished doing my furniture and it got the pet hair off of it also. This is exactly why I wanted it and have been very happy with its performance.

I have used the attachment on microfiber and found it did a great job pulling dirt from the surface. Just be careful not to over saturate.

It works great on hardwood floors, but doesn't have the power for carpet, I am still trying to find a vac that picks up pet hair and dirt from carpet that doesn't weigh a ton!! Have a bad back, if you find one please let me know!!

Works great on lint but especially good on pet hair. Have tried many brushes etc to remove hair from car interior but nothing worked like this brush - amazing.

Yes, I believe this would work. It works well on upholstered fabrics. However, the best ever tool I have for pet fur is this hand held vac. http://www.amazon.com/Bissell-Eraser-Handheld-Vacuum-33A1/dp/B001EYFQ28

Since I have no pets, I cannot guarantee or vouch anything. But from my daily use of this vacuum (I am a bit of neat freak), I assume that this should work fine on pet hair. You might just have to empty a canister more often. But I find it to be so easy.

Great Question. So sometimes online you will find us putting the word "pet" in the title. We do this not because its a special Rainbow model for pet hair or even that it has been used on pet hair before but because Rainbow vacuums work really good on Pet hair and lots of pet owners dont know about Rainbow vacuums. So there are 2 tools that come with Rainbows that work really good with pet hair. The upholstery tool (which all of the Rainbows from GreatVacs will come with) and the mini head with spinning brushroll that only some will come with (this one does not come with that).I hope that helps :) If you have any other questions feel free to email us at service@greatvacs.comThanks DustinGreatVacs (seller) Great Question.

I agree the Pet Hair Eraser is great has worked better than any other vaccum I have owned and I have had several the latest being oreck which a first i really liked but after awhile it did not preform so well. So I got the bissell and like I said it is great!

I don't have hardwood floors, so can't answer that part, but I do have a German Shepherd (indoor/outdoor doggie), and HE is the reason I got the Dyson! I use the upholstery attachment on my cotton slip-covered sofa and for harder to maneuver areas, I use the narrower nozzle--they both seem do do the trick!! The suction power is so superior, and contributes so much to the effort. I do the same with auto upholstery and get great results.
