While most people enjoy the company of pets –canines or felines – in the house, the pets can be a nuisance due to shedding fur all over the place. And it becomes such a bother when the fur sticks on your clothes, carpet, and on the entire floor. What’s worse, some people are allergic to the fur, which may trigger their allergic reactions making some friends, family members, and other people stay away from your house.
These gadgets help vacuum clean the pet’s coat and leave your place habitable. But it would help if you considered several things as you buy a pet vacuum cleaner, and in this piece, we look into some of those things.
The Type of the Vacuum Cleaner
With so many styles of vacuum cleaners, it can be somewhat overwhelming to pick the best for your case. However, it should not be such a difficult decision because you need to choose the vacuum cleaner suitable for your home. You need to consider a few things like how much fur your pet sheds, your type of floor (carpeted or bared floor), and if you let your pet get on the couch, so you need to vacuum the furniture too. Some common types of vacuum cleaners to choose from including upright, robotic, handheld, canister, and stick vacuum cleaners. Mostly, for a pet vacuum cleaner, an upright or a canister cleaner are better options due to their versatility.
Whether Bagged or Bagless Vacuum Cleaner
There are bagged and the bagless vacuum cleaners, and it’s for you to choose the one that best suits your needs. The bagless cleaner will need you to empty the canister into which the debris and fur are collected before the next use, and you risk some of that dirt getting back to the floor. On the other hand, the bagged vacuum cleaners have bags into which the dirt collects, and you have to replace the bag before the next cleaning task, which adds to the costs, but avoid any debris getting back to the house or other place.
Whether Corded or Cordless Vacuum Cleaner
Vacuum cleaners also come as either cordless or with cords. You need to consider if you want a device that you will work with over a large area, so if you choose a corded cleaner, you get one with a long cord to avoid having to keep plugging into power sockets now and then. If you decide to buy a cordless, you still need to factor in cleaning a large area to choose one with a high capacity battery.
