I have had a Shark AZ2002 vacuum for over 2 years now and it is still running excellent. I did a lot of research on vacuums for pet hair.

I have two dogs and the vacuum has great suction even when the container is jam packed full of hair. It does a great job getting playdough and everything else from children as well.

It's also excellent on hardwood, low pile, and high pile Carpets and rugs, which I have a variety of. It has a selector mode for each.

I also use it to clean the interior of my truck and sedan as well, so sand, dirt, and dry mud go through it.

$380 range on Amazon when in stock.

I recommend it.
